Isla Fisher Gossip

Harmony Korine, who is the filmmaking equivalent to Florida, is finally following up his last feature, 2012’s Spring Breakers, with The Beach Bum, which actually looks like a real movie? At least, it looks about as straight forward as anything Korine has made. This is the guy, after all, who made Trash Humpers. Full Story

A high-concept comedy based on a Wall Street Journal article about a group of middle-aged dudes who play tag is not a sure thing, to say the least. But Tag, the movie based on that article, is, surprisingly, not bad. It’s not great, like most studio comedies it’s too broad for that—Popstar is the only recent studio comedy Full Story

One of the more high-concept (mainstream) comedies in the works is Tag, based on the idiotic but true story of a bunch of guys who played a game of tag for thirty years. Any story that wacky is destined to be optioned, and indeed, the rights were snapped up and now we have the first trailer for Tag, the movie about a bunch of guys playing tag. Full Story

Amal Clooney was at an event last night in LA celebrating the Gianni Versace Archive. That’s a great gold dress on her. My favourite fit. Like a slouchy t-shirt. What’s most interesting to me though is that she was even there in the first place. Full Story

It’s Halloween. Why fight it? Instead, I choose to lean in. First, with a baby dressed like Eric Stonestreet’s Modern Family character.   Okay this lil baby takes the cake. #funnymomanddad Full Story

Keeping Up With The Joneses is the type of movie that's engineered to make you laugh on a plane. It has more laughs than you see in the trailer, yet even though it's not particularly inventive, it does give Gal Gadot Full Story

Are the most memorable thing in the first trailer for Keeping Up With the Joneses. It’s an action-comedy that looks like a cross between Mr. & Mrs. Smith and The Burbs with a dash of Date Night thrown in, and stars Isla Fisher, Zach Galifianakis—who I BARELY recognized—Jon Hamm, and Gadot. Full Story

Sacha Baron Cohen arrived in LA the other day in Brothers Grimsby costume. So a lot of people assumed he’d be at the Oscars in Brothers Grimsby costume. And that it’d turn into something ridiculous like the time he went to the Oscars as The Dictator and ashed all over Ryan Seacrest. Full Story

Sacha Baron Cohen’s new movie, Grimsby—unnecessarily retitled The Brothers Grimsby in the US—opens in the UK this weekend, a couple weeks before it opens here in North America. So there was a premiere in London and, as he is wont to do, SBC showed up in character as “Nobby Grimsby”, a working-class Brit who stumbles into the spy life while trying to find his long-lost brother. Full Story

A new trailer for Life Of Crime has been released, adapted from Elmore Leonard’s The Switch. Tim Robbins has a mistress, Isla Fisher, and he doesn’t seem to be into his wife, Jennifer Aniston. So what happens when some gangsters kidnap her for ransom? I love how Aniston’s been styled in this film. Full Story

Before Halloween I didn’t really know, nor care, who Julianne Hough was. To me, she was the mediocre girl in Rock of Ages. Now she’s the girl who went out for Halloween in blackface. I think she got off way too easy and I still can’t decide if it was a stunt. Why would she leave her hair blonde and her eyes blue? I mean, if you are going to do that to your face because of your commitment to the character, why not go all the way? Because she still wanted to be easily recognized, that’s why. Full Story
