By admin on August 31, 2011 Remember that folk music movie Joel and Ethan Coen were working on back in June? It has co-financing and a title.

By admin on August 31, 2011 Compared to the other releases set for Sept. 23 ( Moneyball , Killer Elite , Abduction , Machine Gun Preacher ), precious little is known about The Double . Correction: after watching the new trailer for the Richard Gere-led thriller, everything seems known about The Double . If you thought the trailer for Dream House gave up the farm, you ain’t seen nothing yet! Per the synopsis, after the death of a U.S. senator (Martin Sheen) a retired CIA operative Paul Shepherdson (Gere) must team with a rookie FBI agent (Topher Grace) to stop “Cassius,” a Russian assassin that Shepherdson says he killed years ago. Or did he? Well, he didn’t â€" and the trailer helpfully explains why by giving away what seems to be every twist, turn and character death The Double has to offer. Unless the twist twist ending involves aliens...

By admin on August 31, 2011 On Tuesday, Star Wars fans became outraged upon learning that George Lucas had apparently digitally inserted a Darth Vader scream in the Blu-ray version of Return of the Jedi , available as part of the remastered HD trilogy out in September. It’s a possible change which raises the question: Is a two-second “Noooo” really worth getting that worked up over? [The above video combines audio received by io9.com with the original Star Wars video.] Admittedly, I don’t have much invested in the Star Wars franchise (especially post-Jar Jar Binks) which is why I want to understand how a single scream is such a hurtful edit for fans. Especially since that scream takes up two seconds out of 600+ minutes of trilogy running time. I realize that George Lucas has been making subtle changes to his classic trilogy for the past two decades, including ...

Today 10:00 AM PDT by Gina Serpe Is there nothing Twitter can't be used for? After all, it helps starts feuds , allows haters to anonymously bash celebrities and, of course, indulges stars who want to pawn off their tatty old belongings. Wait, what? That, at least, is what one hot young TV star got up to this week, when he decided to give away his more than gently used leather couch by posting it online. Rather fittingly, i...

Today 11:38 AM PDT by Gina Serpe Good help is so hard to find. Good help that doesn't try to get fresh with you, anyway. Sarah Jessica Parker learned that lesson the hard way while making the promotional rounds in Moscow this week, when a cheeky fan (who was also reportedly acting as a bodyguard for the star) tried to leave with a souvenir that she wasn't quite ready to give.

By admin on August 31, 2011 I Melt With You , Mark Pellington ’s dark â€" and I mean way dark â€" meditation on midlife crises and male bonding, proved to be decidedly difficult stuff for many critics Sundance Film Festival debut last January. Back then I wrote in favor of giving its existential punk romanticism a chance to make its case (especially if you’re a fan of folks like Jeremy Piven , who turns in a great face-melting performance). You’ll finally get your chance to weigh in on the IMWY debate this fall as the film makes its way to VOD and limited theatrical release; get in the spirit with three new stills that highlight the trajectory of Thomas Jane, Rob Lowe, Christian McKay, and Piven’s bromantic weekend of horrors. It’s best to avoid plot details where I Melt With You is concerned, but suffice to say that things don’t exactly end well after colleg...
