Top 7 Comedic Self Cameos in Film
13 June 2013 9:33 AM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
We start the Top 7. You finish the Top 10.
While turning the apocalypse into a party, the new comedy from Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg This Is the End is a celebrity-filled powwow that embraces the value of a cameo, giving its extensive guest list a chance to appear as goofier versions of themselves. With some of the movie’s best jokes coming from its surprise impressions (Michael Cera and his windbreaker are doomsday stealers), it’s time to celebrate the wall-breaking comedy that is a self cameo.
The rules for this specific list are that the comedic cameo must feature the star playing themselves. Such appearances are not considered for being the funniest, but the best overall. These are the appearances that go beyond simply making a film experience feel more like it’s in our reality (as opposed to Movie World), instead providing something special to the film and/or »

Thn’s Top 7 Meta Films: When Fact Meta Fiction
11 June 2013 2:48 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
E! calls it reality TV, but recently the meta aspect of visual storytelling, which is seen perhaps most often in the likes of Extras, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and pretty much any show named after the protagonist, are becoming especially prominent on the big screen. When you have James Franco, Seth Rogan and Emma Watson playing (supposedly) exaggerated versions of themselves, it’s meta, even more so if you throw in an apocalypse, as has been done in This Is The End. Here’s our rundown of our favourite films to have blurred the line between reality and fiction.
Atonement
Atonement is based on a novel, which revolves around a story, in which a story is being written. Of course, although the foolish protagonist is seen inventing and writing stories from from the very beginning of the film, the greatest meta moment is when the true meaning of the atonement is revealed. »

This is the End: why actors love to play themselves
6 June 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
From Being John Malkovich to Curb Your Enthusiasm and The Trip, actors increasingly find it liberating, even therapeutic, to play a version of themselves. This is the End is the latest film to mess around with movie star personas
The new comedy This is the End is less notable for its vision of Hollywood hit by the apocalypse than for the conceit of having its entire cast play themselves. It turns out that Jonah Hill is a prissy buffoon given to harping on about his Oscar nomination. Sweet, gentle Michael Cera is in fact a leering, cocaine-snorting lout who has toilet-stall threesomes with anyone who will oblige. Seth Rogen likes weed. And who on earth would have suspected that James Franco is gay?
Only the most credulous audience members will believe that the cast of This is the End are doing anything except performing, but there is still the tantalising »

Hollywood Doppelgänger Math
6 June 2013 2:35 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
We're all aware that many people in Hollywood share an uncanny resemblance. We're not about to rattle off some tired list of celebrity twins. Instead, we take things up a notch with Hollywood Doppelgänger Math, a new series from GeekTyrant that is sure to change the way you look at actors and the roles they play. To make the cut, a person has to look like the sum of at least two other people. For this first collection, we focused on equations that resulted in young and/or up-and-coming actors. We have also included a list of other connections the actors share.
All three have played secondary love interests in popular sitcoms; Amy Adams in The Office, Alison Brie in Community, and Alexandra Daddario in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Both Adams and Brie have played sisters to characters portrayed by Emily Blunt; Adams in Sunshine Cleaners and Brie in The Five-Year Engagement. »

Mia Wasikowska in Talks to Fill Emma Stones Boots in Crimson Peak
6 June 2013 | Horror Asylum | See recent Horror Asylum news »
'Stoker' star Mia Wasikowska -below is currently in negotiations to replace cutie Emma Stone ('Zombieland') in Guillermo del Toro's new haunted house project 'Crimson Peak'. The new 'traditional' ghost story from the 'Pacific Rim' filmmaker was co-penned by Matthew Robbins and Lucinda Coxon and is set to star Charlie Hunnam ('Sons of Anarchy'), Benedict Cumberbatch ('Star Trek into Darkness') and the gorgeous Jessica Chastain -below ('Zero Dark Thirty', 'Mama'). As sad as it was to see Stone drop out of the project due to scheduling conflicts we think Wasikowska is still a superb replacement. Although she too has a number of upcoming projects lined up so the details still have ot be ironed out to ensure she can make herself available. »
Jesse Eisenberg on 'Now You See Me,' Woody Harrelson's Allure
31 May 2013 9:33 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
In "Now You See Me," Eisenberg plays J. Daniel Reid, a wise-cracking smartass illusionist who knows his way around a deck of cards. Indie favourite Jesse Eisenberg hit the big time in 2010's "The Social Network," garnering Golden Globe and Oscar nominations for his portrayal of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. Since then, he's been a bit under-the-radar, and has resurfaced for a role no one would expect him to play.

He's got confidence and swagger, and is the best in the world at what he does.

Why Jesse Eisenberg Has Staying Power
31 May 2013 5:41 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Remember when people kept mixing Jesse Eisenberg up with Michael Cera? There was a time when both were impossibly cute, somewhat neurotic up-and-coming young actors who made geeks cool again. For a while, Cera appeared to be the one whose star was on the rise. He had a lot going for him: he played the adorable George Michael on the much-loved series Arrested Development, and he parlayed that into success on the big screen with starring roles in two hugely successful flicks: Juno and Superbad. Meanwhile, Eisenberg's career has had more of a slow and steady build. He had a breakout role in Noah Baumbach's 2005 film The Squid and the Whale, in which he played a teen who struggles when his parents (Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney) announce that they're splitting up. Eisenberg's unique knack for quick-fire dialogue earned him higher profile roles in movies like Adventureland, Zombieland and, »

‘Now You See Me’ a toxic blend of arrogance and ludicrousness
30 May 2013 9:05 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Directed by Louis Leterrier
Written by Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakin, and Edward Ricourt
USA, 2013
“Some things are better left unexplained,” a character intones at one point in Now You See Me, a wise lesson that the film’s trio of screenwriters should’ve taken to heart. This heist film, in which a quartet of magicians are highly intelligent thieves (or are they?), becomes more nonsensical and inexplicable the more we learn about how these tricksters have robbed banks (or have they?) and sent federal agents on various wild-goose chases (or were…well, you get the idea). Before we find out the answers to a number of pressing mysteries in the film, that knowledge is all we crave. Once Now You See Me reveals all, we’re left questioning the shreds of logic this film adheres to, having been swindled out of an enjoyable moviegoing experience.

Exclusive 1:1 Interview with Now You See Me star Woody Harrelson!
30 May 2013 5:22 PM, PDT | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »
Woody Harrelson has become one of my favorite actors over the years. I.ve admired his work in such films as Natural Born Killers, The People Vs. Larry Flynt, Zombieland and way too many other great films to mention. In his latest flick, Now You See Me, he plays a man with a certain power over others which comes in handy when you want to pull off an elaborate heist. I.ve been very lucky to have had a few opportunities to chat with Mr. Harrelson and it is always a pleasure. While on a visit to »

Woody Harrelson's 9 Woodiest Roles
30 May 2013 11:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Environmentalist. Cannabis spokesperson. Playwright. Vegan. Cannabis enjoyer. Woody Harrelson is a complex individual and a multifaceted presence on screen, his roles running the range of clean-cut cowboy to cold-blooded killer. But no matter who he's playing there always seems to be a lingering essence of the real Woody, and that's why he rules.
This week sees the former TV star getting "Cheers" for his role as a stage-magician-cum-bank-robber in "Now You See Me" and this November he'll reprise the part of Haymitch Abernathy in his first-ever sequel, "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire." We're stoking the fires of Woody worship as we pay tribute to our favorite High Times cover boy with nine of his quintessential roles.

There's no denying the essential Woodiness of stoner dude Ernie Luckman in Richard Linklater's rotoscope animated take on one of Philip K. Dick's most grounded and personal novels. »

29 May 2013 7:42 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
By Alistair Barr
San Francisco (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc said on Wednesday that it will make five original TV series, having used viewer feedback to pick the shows out of a group of 14 pilots filmed by the world's largest Internet retailer earlier this year.
The chosen pilots are: "Alpha House", a political comedy starring John Goodman; "Betas", a comedy about start-up culture in Silicon Valley; "Annebots", a kids' show about robots; "Creative Galaxy", an animated art adventure series; and "Tumbleaf", another kids' show about a small blue fox named Fig.
These are the first TV series ever made by Amazon and represent a major foray for the company into original programming delivered over the Internet, stepping up competition with Netflix Inc and Hulu.
The new series will be shown exclusively on Amazon's Prime Instant Video service later this year and in early 2014, the company said. Prime Instant Video is »

Jesse Eisenberg on 'Now You See Me,' Learning Magic Tricks, and Having Stage Fright
29 May 2013 6:59 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
In "Now You See Me," Jesse Eisenberg plays a cocky illusionist who teams up with three other magicians -- Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, and Dave Franco -- to become the Four Horsemen. They're soon pulling off amazing feats onstage and off, as they manage to rob a bank in Paris while they're performing in Vegas. Eisenberg spoke to Moviefone about how playing a magician who's the best at what he does helped him with his real-life stage fright, how hard it was to make co-star Harrelson crack up, and the one magic trick he can do in real life. Moviefone: What drew you to this story? Eisenberg: I was doing a play in New York, "Asuncion," and I had a lot of stage fright and anxiety about performing in it. When I read the script, the character they wanted me to play was the most confident, almost arrogant, stage performer, »
