Movie Reviews and Previews Blake Lively in The Age of Adaline For a movie that features a protagonist who boned two members of the same family, The Age of Adaline is incredibly boring. There’s so much potential drama to fuel the story of a woman who doesn’t age, and who, it is implied, has left a string of lovers By Sarah • Apr 27, 2015 11:55 am
Media Manipulation This week in Johnny Depp I know I don’t have to rehash this for you, the Johnny Depp week. And how they’ve turned that around in just 5 days. From “missing” and a “mess” to, oh, he might win an Oscar. Do women ever get the same courtesy? Fine. I won’t turn By Lainey • Apr 24, 2015 10:44 am
Douchebags Adam Sandler’s new movie is so offensive no one wants to be in it Adam Sandler is making a new movie, The Ridiculous 6, which is slated to air on Netflix at some point. It’s a spoof of Westerns, the title is a play on The Magnificent Seven, and it stars Sandler as a guy who’s raised in a band of Apaches By Sarah • Apr 24, 2015 10:24 am
Douchebags The Avengers are TOO PEPPY We’ve said it before—the Avengers are the coolest club in Hollywood. When you put that group together, they’re a marketing flak’s wet dream. They sell themselves, they sell the movie, they sell the ongoing pop cultural domination of Marvel simply by showing up. And they’ve By Sarah • Apr 23, 2015 02:51 pm
BFFs Julia & Jodie I LOVE these pictures of Julia Roberts. So much. They're just so...her. She's in New York, working on Money Monster. Let's start with the shots of her leaning out the car window, looking like she's throwing some sharp words at the By Lainey • Apr 23, 2015 01:56 pm
Amazingness The nameless Superman Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer were in Vegas earlier this week at CinemaCon to promote The Man From U.N.C.L.E. It comes out in August. And as I mentioned earlier this week, neither star has much heat right now so the marketing team for the movie has By Lainey • Apr 23, 2015 12:53 pm
Media Manipulation RDJ walks out Before I shut down last night I watched the RDJ interview that everyone’s been talking about. He was in London the other day to promote Avengers: Age Of Ultron. The outlet was Channel 4 with journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy. It’s making headlines because the video is a major cringe. By Lainey • Apr 23, 2015 12:07 pm
Xenu Tom Cruise did not recruit Russell Crowe Did not or could not? Russell Crowe is currently promoting his directorial debut The Water Diviner. He’s been extra generous with gossip during this press tour. I’m obsessed with the one about Michael Jackson prank calling him. You heard about this? Michael would just ring up Russell’s By Lainey • Apr 23, 2015 11:21 am
Media Manipulation Fifty Shades of Grey is now a family affair Following the exodus of the creative team behind Fifty Shades of Grey, the producers were left with the task of hiring a new writer and director for the sequel, which they had to do while satisfying interfering novelist EL James—a tall order by all accounts. They’re still looking By Sarah • Apr 23, 2015 10:37 am
Quiveration Idris Elba: Star Trek and a donut First… Please enjoy these photos of Idris Elba eating a donut. There are, like, 3 people in the entire world who can eat a donut and still manage to look attractive. He would be one of them. Next… Simon Pegg is co-writing the next Star Trek movie. He was asked By Lainey • Apr 22, 2015 03:55 pm
Xenu Tom Cruise at CinemaCon Tom Cruise was in Vegas for CinemaCon as part of the Paramount presentation, especially important because Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation comes out in July and, well, they want it to make big money. They need it to make big money. Footage from the movie was screened for theatre owners and By Lainey • Apr 22, 2015 03:40 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Alicia Vikander and Oscar Isaac in Ex Machina A stripped-down, more sinister companion piece to Her, Alex Garland’s Ex Machina is a stellar piece of science fiction. It’s eerie and thoughtful and provoking, featuring gorgeous natural visuals and beautifully integrated computer effects, and though none of the questions it asks are ground-breaking, the way Garland, who By Sarah • Apr 22, 2015 02:33 pm

Media Manipulation Sienna Miller, member of the jury Sienna Miller’s name was on the list of 2015 jury members at the Cannes Film Festival released yesterday, one of the reasons why people were calling it the prettiest jury ever. Sienna is, obviously, very pretty. But inviting her to be part of the judging panel was not just By Lainey • Apr 22, 2015 10:37 am
Media Manipulation The Johnny Depp Makeover Stories about Johnny Depp haven’t been so positive lately. His last few films have been sh-t. He hurt his hand while in Australia shooting Pirates 5, but not actually when he was shooting Pirates 5. And there are a lot of rumours about how it actually happened, where it By Lainey • Apr 22, 2015 10:12 am
Media Manipulation Intro for April 22, 2015 Dear Gossips, Yesterday, the Cannes Film Festival announced its full jury for this year. And many are calling it the most physically attractive jury ever which I’m sure will go over well with the jury members. Still, it’s not like you can’t see it, right?
