Movie Reviews and Previews Seth Rogen’s Encino Man goes to HBO Max Seth Rogen’s next film, An American Pickle, is about a turn-of-the-last-century immigrant who accidentally gets pickled and preserved before being restored to life in the present day.

Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: Comeback actors, Olympics, and Janelle Monae We begin this week’s podcast with a discussion about what Duana and Megan Fox have in common. There’s a scientific name for it too – even though the name sounds ridiculously made up and not real at all: Brachydactyly Type D, pronounced “bracky-dact-ily”. Come ON! From there, we move By Lainey • Feb 26, 2018 04:45 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise in The Mummy In the tradition of mummy monster movies, beginning with the original 1932 Boris Karloff film, the 2017 reboot of The Mummy is pretty dumb. But then, the 1999 movie starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz is pretty dumb, too, so it’s not like there’s a real high bar By Sarah • Jun 07, 2017 01:23 pm
The Affair It’s A Hard Noah Solloway Life The Affair 303-305 Recap I could watch a show about Cole. That is, I do watch a show about Cole. But I could watch a whole show about Cole, his ex-wife and current wife and daughter and (deceased) brother and family, and people like Oscar who rotate into his life By Duana • Dec 20, 2016 02:54 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise Runs From The Mummy Do you remember when The Mummy was an Indiana Jones-ish action-adventure about a smart librarian outwitting a mummy? You know, back when Brendon Fraser looked like this and didn’t have weird freaky hands? Remember Rachel Weisz and how cute and spunky she was, and how she was a total By Sarah • Dec 05, 2016 10:25 am

Yesterday, Variety reported that Cruise was in talks to star in a reboot of the Brendan Fraser classic, The Mummy.

Maple Leaf Best of 2010: Brendan Fraser claps at the Globes Brendan Fraser provided two great moments worth coming back to this year. Have you forgotten him at the Globes? Dude, they made music videos out of what he did at the Globes. Here. Let me remind you. Maybe it’s just me. But if I’m, like, making a salad By Lainey • Dec 07, 2010 09:15 am
Maple Leaf Hair Club for No One It’s Brendan Fraser. The title should be self explanatory, non? Fraser was spotted shopping at Samy Cameras yesterday in LA spending some of that Mummy money on photography. And he needs another Mummy movie soon. Because lately Brendan Fraser has been for sh-t at the box office. Fraser can By Lainey • Jun 08, 2010 11:04 am
Maple Leaf Best Globes Spastic: Brendan Fraser I was all over it during our live blog on Sunday night and then totally forgot in the rush of getting out the photos yesterday. Then my friend L emailed and it all came back. This moment, like WHO’s NATALIE????????????????????, totally made my Globes. It’s the small gifts By Lainey • Jan 19, 2010 03:05 am
Maple Leaf Work those hips Gerard Butler need not worry. About his career, yes. But about his pants problem? Not as much as Brendan Fraser. Last week I posited that Gerry’s pants were the most embarrassing in the business. That was before Brendan arrived at LAX looking like this. His are the mature version By Lainey • Sep 28, 2009 03:45 am

Back in April, he looked like a newborn manchild with the plugs freshly installed and some kind of microderm abrasion peeling several years off his face. Now just six By Lainey • Nov 26, 2007 07:00 pm
