Movie Reviews and Previews Iron Man 3: Extremis is coming And you should be ready for it. We’ll save the nerd breakdown (nerd down?) for tomorrow when the first full trailer for Iron Man 3 is released, but today we’ve got a seventeen second teaser that, though brief, clearly says, YES, SH*T JUST GOT REAL. It also By Sarah • Oct 22, 2012 01:04 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Benedict Cumberbatch wins knives Sherlock was honoured by the Crime Thriller Awards last night in London. Here’s Benedict Cumberbatch at the event. He won Best Actor. They hand out knives encased in glass instead of trophies. I have to ask my ma, the Chinese Squawking Chicken, to be sure but I feel like By Lainey • Oct 19, 2012 12:54 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Is this Tris? Click here to read my review of Divergent and here for Insurgent. I am obsessed with the story. They started on the screenplay last year. Now I guess they must be closer because Deadline is reporting that Shailene Woodley is the frontrunner to play Tris. Deadline is as about as By Lainey • Oct 19, 2012 12:08 pm
Break Ups Scarlett & Sam? These are the first shots of Scarlett Johansson since it was revealed that she and that guy we can all forget about now are over. Page Six had a story the other day about how Scarjo’s been spending her time as a single. Apparently she was hanging out with By Lainey • Oct 18, 2012 12:41 pm
Media Manipulation Nicole Kidman’s long game I used to love Nicole Kidman, so much. In high school, my girl crushes were 1) Gwyneth Paltrow, 2) Nicole Kidman, 3) Lucy Liu (only Liu still merits a girl crush). Remember Moulin Rouge? Who didn’t love Kidman around Moulin Rouge? And then she was liberated from Xenu-captivity and By Sarah • Oct 18, 2012 12:27 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise: mysterious and lethal This is the trailer’s message -- don’t f-ck with Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher because he’s all mystery and stealth killer moves that will hurt you in the night time but not if you’re a woman in his bed. At least that’s what I think By Lainey • Oct 17, 2012 05:04 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Aaron Paul’s Need for Speed If you ever want me to open an email in less than 5 seconds, use the subject line “Aaron Paul.” (Lainey: this is how I got Maria’s attention yesterday.) EW is reporting that he’s signed on for a DreamWorks feature, Need for Speed, based on an EA video By Maria • Oct 16, 2012 01:35 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Liam celebrates in Rome Well, not really. He’s there to work. But there’s always down time. And Liam Neeson is enjoying his with girlfriend Freya St Johnston. They’ve been together a year and a half. Here they on the Spanish steps and at the Piazza del Popolo while he gets the By Lainey • Oct 15, 2012 09:54 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Les Miserables: the posters Four new posters for the upcoming Les Miserables -- THE MOST ANTICIPATED MOVIE OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON (Hobbit what?) -- have been released but... and you know how much I love Les Miserables ... I hate them. Hate the cheesy tag lines even if they’re germane to the story (Heart By Lainey • Oct 12, 2012 04:04 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Granny’s green riding pants Nicole Kidman was photographed today on horseback in Monaco in costume as Princess Grace. It’s a perfectly styled outfit, isn’t it? I mean, rich people already look rich when they’re on top of a horse. But this, this is an extra level of uppity elegance. I can By Lainey • Oct 12, 2012 02:17 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Bruce & a fringed Zeta Did you see RED? I liked RED! Am I dumb? Was I blinded by the Mary Louise Parker? I am partial to Mary Louise Parker. They're making a sequel now and she's in it, though not pictured. Rather, here's Bruce Willis with Catherine Zeta-Jones By Lainey • Oct 11, 2012 03:21 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Shailene Woodley starts the clock on Emma Stone I liked The Amazing Spider-Man well enough. Mostly, I liked how great Andrew Garfield was as Peter Parker, but it wasn’t a bad movie. The biggest issue was that it didn’t do enough to separate itself from the Sam Raimi treatment of just a few years ago. When By Sarah • Oct 11, 2012 12:58 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews There’s very little Shelfy The first trailer for Hitchcock was released yesterday. Remember what a big ass deal was made over the fact that Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Biel were cast in the film? Let me rephrase -- remember what a big ass deal Shelfy tried to make of the fact that she was By Lainey • Oct 11, 2012 10:54 am

Smutty Surgery See Granny as Grace I believe these are the first shots of Nicole Kidman on set in Monaco as Grace Kelly. If this is a wig, it’s a very good one. Or did she take her extensions out? Princess Grace’s title, like that of her daughter-in-law Charlene, was Her Serene Highness. And By Lainey • Oct 09, 2012 02:34 pm
