What is Movie: the Movie? It's only the greatest movie, you guys!
"The problem is, you usually only get one or two genres per film," Jimmy Kimmel helpfully explains.
"So four months ago, I set out to make the biggest, most star-studded film in the history of American cinema---something that packed everything moviegoers love into one spectacular motion picture event.
"And tonight my dream has been realized!" he concludes. "Here it is, our gift to you, the world premiere trailer for the greatest film ever made: Movie: the Movie."
In order of appearance: Ryan Phillippe. Jessica Alba. Taylor Lautner. Antonio Banderas. Edward Norton. Josh Brolin. Colin Farrell. An angelic-faced child I only vaguely might recognize, but possibly do not? Guillermo Rodriguez. Charlize Theron. Tom Hanks. Bryan Cranston. Jeff Goldblum. Gary Oldman. Cameron Diaz. Samuel L. Jackson. JJ Abrams. Martin Scorsese. Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. Jessica Biel. Jason Bateman. Kevin James. Tyler Perry. John Goodman. Kate Beckinsale. Danny DeVito. Don Cheadle. Meryl Streep… in a mustache. Helen Mirren. Christoph Waltz. Matt Damon. George Clooney. Gabby Sidibe. And Aerosmith's Steven Tyler, screaming in the apocalypse.
And it's… unexpectedly offensive, actually! Fortunately, you get a huge heaping of celebrities---more stars than you got during the Oscars, for sure---and you'll spend only 1/18th of your time watching it!
Plus, the special effects are pretty good. />

When the Oscar nominations were first released, I wanted nothing more than for Melissa McCarthy to win the award for Best Supporting Actress in Bridesmaids. And truly, I wanted it so, so much. But then something happened. Octavia Spencer, a nominee in the same category whose movie, The Help, I still haven't seen, managed to work her way into my heart with her wise words and beautiful attitude. I found myself starting to root for Octavia instead, and I felt so torn about that.
But then Octav...
Can I tell you something? I was really, really underwhelmed by the dresses at last night's Academy Awards. Like, I was seriously disappointed in everything. Usually there's always something that I truly love, or something that is so awful that it's fascinating. But no, it looks like this year, everyone decided to go for ensembles that were "pretty ok" or "kind of ugly, but whatever" instead. And that's such a sad thing.
Here is a list of thoughts I had, accompanied by photos in the gall...
Do you see that photo up there, that little adorable black and white number? That's a photo from The Artist. I figured I'd go ahead and use a photo from that film in the post about all the winners from last night's Academy Awards because it won a good handful of them, including Best Picture. Have, uh, any of you seen it?
Other big winners include, well, nothing, really. Hugo won a handful of awards in the technical categories, but other than that, The Artist was the only film that reall...
I don't know whether you know this, but the Academy Awards were last night. A bunch of people won Oscar statuettes. Um. I'd sure love to tell you all about the ceremony, but I can't right now. I'm too distracted.
I'm too distracted by Angelina Jolie's leg.
Somehow I missed Angelina on the pre-ceremony red carpet---I was watching a movie, OK?---but fortunately for me, Angie was sure to strike an identical pose just as soon as she arrived onstage to present awards for both "Best Original...
Well, that's it. Forget the Oscars---which are tonight!---just forget 'em, because we can all go home. Adam Sandler is already slated to clean up at this year's Razzies. And as we all know, the Razzie is the only trophy that matters.
Sandler swept with a record-shattering 11 nominations. Deadline has the full press announcement:
Sandler has more than doubled Eddie Murphy's old record for the most nominations accrued by an individual in a single year. As an actor, writer and/or producer on...
Whoa! Sweet kicks, Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston!
Cranston wore these radical Chuck Taylors to the Independent Spirit Awards, and everyone seems even more impressed by them than even Bryan Cranston does. Like, even Bill Macy seems jealous.
You, too, can dress just like Bryan Cranston! His Breaking Bad custom-printed hi-top Chucks, designed by Jon Defreest, are a steal at US$85 (although Cranston was given his for free). (In the meantime, I wear a size 4 or 4.5, thank you.)
You can ...
Thrift, thrift, film producers! The funeral baked meats did coldly furnish forth the ideas for your next bio-pic! (Or so the Daily Mail alleges.)
Furthermore, Rihanna is already the frontrunner in the race to play the not-long-dead Whitney Houston. The Daily Mail:
Whitney's record label boss and close friend Clive Davis is at the helm of the project and he reportedly wants to get a script finalized as soon as possible so filming can begin.
Rihanna, 24, is in the running for the lead r...
Who gets thanked by Academy Award-winners on Oscars Night? Spouses? Parents? Agents? God? It's God, isn't it. Slate examined ten years of Oscar acceptance speeches for answers.
Slate also built an amusing, interactive infographic, and you can click around on it to see who thanked whom. Here is the amazing stuff I learned:
- Only one Oscar winner has begun her acceptance speech by naming her agent first, and that was Tilda Swinton.
- Denzel Washington thanked God first. (Slate comments: "Though it won’t surprise anyone who thin...
HOLY MARY MOTHER OF PEARL. What in tarnation does Jessica Simpson have in there?
I know, I know. Maybe it's just the dress. (Oh, my word, that dress.)
No, I shouldn't pick on Jess. The fact is, she is a very, very good-lookin' pregnant person. Objectively, I am nowhere as cute even on my best days. Jess looks fine. Great, even. But she's so… so big! And orange! She's at that stage in her pregnancy where there is no longer a "baby on board": Jessica Simpson is essentially a baby with ad...
When you publicize your marriage as much as our marriage was publicized, when you renew wedding vows, when you do all those things … you're giving people a picture of an ideal relationship that people aspire to.
...When it goes south, you can't all of a sudden take the philosophy of a monk and decide to go for a vow of silence. It doesn't really work like that. I respect my wife's decision not to talk about that, but I felt that people at least deserved some kind of explanation why the pict...
