Maple Leaf Taylor Kitsch: Jesus with Aliens A teaser trailer for John Carter was released the other day featuring Taylor Kitsch very shirtless, very cut, very hot, and, um, not saying much.

Quiveration Sherlock returns Written by Sarah Two issues with Sherlock Holmes. 1) We’re going to need a way to distinguish between the RDJ/Guy Ritchie movie franchise and the BBC series starring Benedict Yum Yum (because that nickname is no less ridiculous than his real name of Cumberbatch).

Harry Potter Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 2 Please note the following review is SPOILER HEAVY. You've read the reviews by now. It's getting very, very good reviews. And that's great.

Douchebags James Franco, you sound like Lindsay Lohan More from his interview with Playboy (click here for yesterday’s post if you missed it when he said he knew better than the Academy) and, well, it’s pure narcissism on display now. James Franco is obsessed with James Franco. He’ll probably call that an “art project” too. By Lainey • Jul 12, 2011 02:57 am

Twilight Stephenie Meyer is ruining Rom-coms too now… Written by Sarah Although, I suppose, there’s not that much left to ruin anyway. I am a sucker for old romantic comedies—and I mean old, like Bringing Up Baby or It Happened One Night—which is why I’m so hard on modern rom-coms. The formula isn’ By Lainey • Jul 06, 2011 08:11 am
Douchebags Michael Bay, 3D, and the will of the artist Written by Sarah Earlier this week Michael Bay sent a letter to the projectionists at movie theaters, imploring them to screen Transformers 3 with the 3D specs he specified.

Movie Reviews and Previews Tom & Eminem Mission: Impossible 4 or, more accurately, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (What a Dumb Title), there’s a new trailer...with the sounds of Eminem complementing all the running, stunting, and stand-offing between Tom Cruise and Jeremy Renner. (I used to hate the name Jeremy. Probably because I went to By Lainey • Jun 29, 2011 03:29 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Good trailer, bad trailer with Immortals Written by Sarah You ever see a trailer and it just makes you laugh? Not that the movie is funny, but that the trailer is SO BAD the only possible reaction is to laugh and laugh?

Movie Reviews and Previews Beefy Tom Hardy Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton are in Paris today to promote their movie Warrior. As you can see, Tom is... kinda beefy right now. He’s been working on The Dark Knight Rises. He will be the villain. Needless to say, at least without any makeup on, his villain looks By Lainey • Jun 27, 2011 04:20 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Be Easy. Please? Written by Duana I was getting a little nostalgic the other day. Found an early email from the boy. Among the sweet, early-in-the-relationship don’t-actually-mean-it things he said (‘cocktail onions for a snack? That sounds…interesting’) was “Oh, really? John Krasinski’s directing?

Movie Reviews and Previews Emma Stone will be ready when the zombies come Written by Sarah I was kind of talking myself out of believing that the dead will really rise against us one day, but then I spoke to someone on The Walking Dead about how they plan to unravel how the zombie plague started and damn if it didn’t sound By Lainey • Jun 24, 2011 03:54 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Madonna’s movie might be good Did you hear about this? I’ve not had time to address it until now. But W.E., Madonna’s directorial effort about Wallis Simpson, was acquired by the Weinsteins. And, gulp, word is it might not suck. The source is a good one. A very reliable one.
