Movie Reviews and Previews Andrew & Emma flirt in Spider-Man 2 The first full trailer has just been released. Andrew Garfield was wonderful as Peter Parker in the first (not really the first but the re-first) installment. And he’s just as appealing here as Peter grows more self-assured with his powers and responsibilities. Also, there’s an adorable flirting scene By Lainey • Dec 05, 2013 10:04 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Jeremy Renner’s Movie Star Mulligan Remember how last year Jeremy Renner was everywhere, trying to be a movie star, and that the centerpiece of his campaign was a Bourne movie that didn’t star Jason Bourne? Well, the strategy kinda sorta worked. The movie, The Bourne Legacy (aka the non-Bourne Bourne), did well enough to By Sarah • Dec 03, 2013 10:06 am
Dumbass James Franco > Robert De Niro Here are James Franco and Seth Rogen with some puppies on the set of their new movie. So… about that Bound 2 parody video that they made… Wasn’t funny to me. Sorry? I thought the original was funny. Like, hilarious. James and Seth? Not really. What’s the gag? By Lainey • Dec 02, 2013 03:05 pm
Quiveration Becks & Styles Um. This might keep me busy tonight. Right before I fall asleep.

A couple of weeks ago, I posted these By Lainey • Dec 02, 2013 11:52 am

Here’s Jamie Dornan in character as Christian Grey, who’s really just EL James’s reimagining of Robert Pattinson eating her out. So…how does Dornan look as Pattinson? Well, he looks really good.

Movie Reviews and Previews JT promotes Inside Llewyn Davis The last time we talked about Justin Timberlake, the Actor, it was for a movie called Runner, Runner. Which sucked. And it took a sh-t at the box office. And people -- not just bloggers, but reporters mainstream entertainment outlets too -- implored him to stop trying.

Movie Reviews and Previews The Muppets are back to cute you to death I dare you to watch the trailer for Muppets Most Wanted and not smile. It’s impossible. Like The LEGO Movie, this is un-cynical filmmaking at its best, and you cannot sit through Ty Burrell’s terrible French accent and the “badge off” and not laugh.
