Katy Perry’s Not-So-Revealing “Part of Me” Movie Poster

By madisoncleo · Comments (1)
Friday, May 18th, 2012

Someone wanted to make a movie about Katy Perry’s life. Not only will the film be released this summer, but its going to be in 3-D. That means bubblegum pop personified so that it literally hits you in the face. The poster was revealed earlier this week and is one of the only hints at what the film will include. Conclusions that can be drawn from this poster about the movie: there will be donuts involved, Katy Perry is going to skin some smurfs to make a wig, she grew up in 1950, she’s always been tall and Barbie-ish, the image of her future self in her magic mirror didn’t scare the sh*t out of her, porcelain cats are better than real ones, thigh high socks are good for traveling on your knees on a wood floor. Can’t wait to see “Part of Me” Katy Perry, can’t f*cking wait. Read More→

“American Idol” Recap: “Sexual” Made It To The Final Two

By madisoncleo · Comments (0)
Friday, May 18th, 2012

Not that I had any doubts what-so-ever, America. The result of 90 million votes last night brought Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips to the last battle to see who will be the next American Idol. Joshua Ledet was sent home last night. Ledet’s departing song was his ole stand-by, “It’s A Man’s, Man’s, Man’s World.” It was a shock to see Ledet go. I thought the two boys would be duking it out for the top spot. My sadness was cut short by the realization that I get to watch my main man, Phillip “Sexual” Phillips perform for one more week!

Previous “Idol” runner-up Adam Lambert performed as well as Lisa Marie Presley (for real, America?). Who could pay attention to their performances with such weighty news waiting on Seacrest’s cue-card? Read More→

To White Castle & Beyond! Harold & Kumar get Animated

By MattRose · Comments (2)
Friday, May 18th, 2012

Pack another bowl and Google Map the nearest White Castle, Adult Swim has given the green light to an animated version of Harold & Kumar. The Adult Swim network announced seven new shows, with a Harold & Kumar show expected to begin in November.

Not to disappoint fans of the stoner franchise, Kal Penn and John Cho will be voicing the  main characters; on board, as well, are the producers from the original Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle movie, according to Deadline.com. The step towards an animated series begs the question, will it be normal animation or claymation? In A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas there was a stop animation/claymation sequence mimicking previous famous Christmas animations like Frosty the Snowman which thoroughly enhanced the movie.

Not many more details have been released about the series, but one can sit back, take a puff, and imagine the possibilities the bumbling duo could get themselves into on a regular basis. Read More→

“American Idol” Recap: The Power of Three

By madisoncleo · Comments (0)
Thursday, May 17th, 2012

Phillip Phillips, Jessica Sanchez, and Joshua Ledet

There are three contestants left on “American Idol,” America. After last night, all three are equally matched in my eyes. In order to fill a two hour show with only three contestants, “Idol” producers took us to the contestants’ hometowns. Each potential Idol was given three songs; one they chose for themselves, one picked by the judges, and one picked by Jimmy Iovine. Hometowns were touching, and the song choice was on point. It’s gonna be a toss up, America. I’m nervous about tonight’s elimination show.

Does Warner Bros. Regret Not Making Joss Whedon’s Wonder Woman Now That The Avengers Made All Of The Money?

By Michael Bridgett · Comments (0)
Thursday, May 17th, 2012

by Scott Campbell

Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Black Nick Fury and of course… The Incredible Hulk.

The Avengers are the shit and everyone knows it. The film was outstanding.

- It broke all the records.

- It made all of the money.

- It proved comic book films and super hero films in particular still have gas in the tank.

- It rocked more balls than anything ever seen ever.

- It literally surpassed its own monumental hype.

In fact, the only reason you didn’t get a review from me was because it would have read something like an obsessive 6th grade girl’s gushing love letter to her favorite pop singer after having her very first orgasm with him as the subject… Graphic, I know. But I want you to understand where I’m coming from.

While making a movie is a collaborative effort, The Avengers, Marvel, and its fans owe a special debt of gratitude to the man that served as both writer and director of this film, Joss Whedon.

Back in 2007, Whedon was working with Warner Bros. to bring Wonder Woman, the greatest female super hero of all time (and only one girls know) to life on the big screen. Unfortunately, creative differences did what they do and the film never happened.

The Dictator Review: Hilariously Offensive

By nathanpatton · Comments (0)
Wednesday, May 16th, 2012

Sacha Baron Cohen loves to hold a mirror up to America in order to show us our faults, to make us think and most of all, to have a laugh at our expense. It worked tremendously in Borat, often showing our ignorance to and intolerance of other cultures, but mostly making fun of the fact that we will go along with anything, uncomfortable as it may be, if it means a little screen time. Bruno was more of the same, if less effective, suffering partially from Baron Cohen’s growing fame. In The Dictator, his first starring role in a non-mockumentary format, the commentary is more subtle but every bit as biting.

Baron Cohen plays Admiral General Aladeen, head of the fictional African nation of Wadiya and an amalgamation of infamous heads of state like Gaddafi, Hussein, Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong-il. The film is even cheekily dedicated to the latter.

Dark Shadows Review: Smitten or Bitten?

By Michael Bridgett · Comments (0)
Saturday, May 12th, 2012

Dark Shadows is the latest effort of long time collaborators Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, and from what I can tell, the first attempt to do a film version of a 60’s soap opera for a wide audience. Boy is this  an odd movie. In fact, it’s the kind of odd movie that revels in oddness.

Whether it’s the good kind of odd or the bad kind of odd is really a matter of your sensibilities. If you happen to be into witches, vampires, dark comedies and soap operas then it’s right up your alley. If not… well there is still some fun to be had, but much of the film’s charm will be lost on you.

Of course, Dark Shadows isn’t just any soap opera. A cornerstone of daytime serial television, Dark Shadows started as a relatively average daytime show, but soon began including all manner of super natural elements. From 1966 to 1971, Dark Shadows aired over 1200 episodes and still maintains a rabid fan base to this day. The president and vice president of this fan club? Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

This fact is both the film version’s greatest strength and greatest weakness.

“American Idol” Recap: Joshua Ledet Sneaks On In

American Idol Top 4

America, it’s no secret that Joshua Ledet has one of the dreamiest soul voices we’ve heard from a guy in a while. This season on “American Idol” he has literally belted his way to the top, singing for the judges and not-so-graciously accepting positive feedback and gushing congratulations from Randy, Steven, and J.Lo. His performance last night wasn’t any different. The contestants chose songs from the “California Dreamin’” songbook, as well as “Songs You Wish You Had Written” category. What followed from the contestants was predictable, yet satisfying. Hakuna Matata, America. We’ve got a few winners.

Lindsay Lohan Teams Up with Woody Allen

By JENBSHOEMAKER · Comments (0)
Tuesday, May 8th, 2012

Some may say a Lindsay Lohan and Woody Allen move would be disastrous, others may claim genius. Let’s let film decide.Woody Allen is known for creating characters in his own likeness: manic, a bit jagged, definitely ego-driven, which may not be the right fit for Lindsay Lohan, but if Woody Allen has the final say, we may be seeing a career revival in the works.

The two were spotted having dinner in New York City Saturday night along with Allen’s wife and singer/producer Ryan Leslie. Fresh off the announcement that Lindsay will play Elizabeth Taylor, the timing may be just right.

Woody Allen is in pre-production for his latest feature staring Bradley Cooper. Only time will tell what these two powerhouses are cooking up.

Would Lindsay make the perfect Allen character?

Yeah… Cosplay is a waste of time until someone gets hit with a real life repulser blast.

The Avengers opens today… I hope you got your tickets.

Do you want your own working Iron Man armor?

Personally… I’m a War Machine man.
