In the wake of Brett Ratner resigning (read: getting canned) as co-producer, Eddie Murphy, the host he recruited, quit the telecast. I have one thought By Sarah • Nov 10, 2011 11:08 am
Douchebags The Oscars go KABOOM no more It’s been a rough week for Brett Ratner. First Olivia Munn outs him as the pervy director who jacked off in front of her while holding a shrimp, then he admitted to banging Munn, but not the shrimp/jacking off part, then Tower Heist was a disappointment, then he By Sarah • Nov 09, 2011 10:41 am
Movie Reviews and Previews It’s a princess cage match! I guess we should have seen this coming, with the worldwide popularity of the royal wedding this past spring and our obsession with the Cambridges, that there would be a rash of princess-themed movies in the wake of that interest.

Movie Reviews and Previews A handy list of actors who think you’re stupid That’s what Forbes should have called their list of “Hollywood’s most overpaid stars”. In and of itself, there’s nothing wrong with commercial filmmaking.

Movie Reviews and Previews Nicholas Hoult, cute zombie Lainey emailed me about the first promotional image of Warm Bodies, a bit confused about the plot, and wanted me to write about it, because, as she said, I have a “PhD in zombie”.

Movie Reviews and Previews Taylor Lautner goes the Leo route Remember when Taylor Lautner met with Gus Van Sant and Dustin Lance Black for dinner last month? A writer, a director and an actor at a table together can only mean one thing—they’re working together. Or, at least Lautner and Van Sant are. The Hollywood Reporter just announced By Sarah • Nov 03, 2011 08:44 am
Quiveration Dear Michael Fassbender We have got to stop meeting like this. I just can’t with you when I’m busy and have work to do, then here you come with your everything and I just can’t. It’s like you knew that I needed you yesterday. Like you knew that in By Sarah • Nov 02, 2011 08:33 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Reese Witherspoon wants you to know she’s sexy She really, really does. In This Means War, Reese Witherspoon juggles Chris Pine and Tom Hardy (unconvincingly). Now she’s being offered the lead in Sony’s Sex Tape, a movie about a married couple who lose track of their homemade porn. Jason Segel would be the other half of By Sarah • Nov 01, 2011 01:06 pm

Charlie Sheen Charlie Sheen wins in the end Remember how you all yelled at me when I said I was enjoying Charlie Sheen’s TORNADO OF AWESOME earlier this year? At the time I noted that his behavior, as bizarre as it was, was ultimately about a contract dispute and I believed that he could rein it in By Sarah • Oct 31, 2011 10:21 am
Movie Reviews and Previews PPZ is never happening First, The Walking Dead is on shaky ground—season two has been good but not great so far. Then, the more I learn about the production of World War Z, the more depressed I get. (Lainey: it sounds like the production is an over-budget mess. Also, by accident, apparently By Sarah • Oct 28, 2011 11:16 am
Quiveration Ejiofor, Fassbender and Pitt are conspiring against us I love Michael Fassbender. I almost love him more than Ryan Gosling. I love him so much I never want to meet/see him for fear of him doing something to wreck my crush. I love him, shark smile and all. There’s no point to this, I just wanted By Sarah • Oct 26, 2011 11:45 am
The Walking Dead Walking Dead Episode 2: Introducing the cannibals The Walking Dead 2.2 recap We begin with a pre-zombie flashback.

Anna Faris Fantasy SNL Over the weekend Lainey and I got into a conversation about fantasy hosts for SNL. People who might actually make it bearable.
