Maple Leaf Everyone is jizzing over Inception Media screenings are happening this week. Everyone coming out of Inception is jerking off over Christopher Nolan’s latest brilliance. Like, everyone. And just in time too.

Twilight On Twilight Eclipse Like I said earlier, Twilight Eclipse is the best comedy so far of the summer. Does it matter if that wasn’t the intended reaction? Not to me. Because Darren, Fiona, and I, we had a good time laughing our tits off. And isn’t this the point of going By Lainey • Jul 05, 2010 08:19 am
Movie Reviews and Previews They could be in West Egg Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson were on the set of Water for Elephants yesterday and appeared to be shooting a fancy party scene which could be a fancy party scene from The Great Gatsby, and not only because of the era. Reese has long been spoken of as a possible By Lainey • Jul 02, 2010 04:19 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Drew’s dress, Drew’s chemistry This is Drew Barrymore all flowered up leaving a photo shoot in New York yesterday. The photo shoot was presumably to promote her upcoming movie Going the Distance co-starring her real-life boyfriend Justin Long. Have you seen the trailer? I’m into the music. I’m kinda into the concept. By Lainey • Jun 30, 2010 03:31 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Jonah Hexed Written by Sarah Do you believe in voodoo? I do. Call it superstition, karma, witchcraft, bad juju. I believe that “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” And I walked right into a black magic trap over the weekend. I went By Lainey • Jun 21, 2010 08:05 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Nic & Nic: two people in need Just announced yesterday – a new film called Trespass starring Oscar winners Nicole Kidman and Nicolas Cage, directed by Joel Schumacher, will begin production in August in New Orleans.

Movie Reviews and Previews The State of the Summer So Far Written by Sarah We’re halfway through Summer Movie Season 2010. With two weeks of June releases and July left to go, it’s a good time to take the temperature of the box office so far (I don’t count August as a summer movie month, but rather consider By Lainey • Jun 14, 2010 05:27 am
Media Manipulation Brad, Malick, Cleopatra, and another book Brad Pitt was spotted in Hollywood yesterday with a man who looks very much like Terrence Malick. Malick of course is the director of the upcoming Tree of Life starring Pitt and Sean Penn filmed like 85 years ago. They were hoping it would be ready for Cannes. Malick is By Lainey • Jun 11, 2010 04:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Harrison Ford’s blowout With his earring and his super styled hair, Harrison Ford is kind of making my life right now. Ford arrived at the AFI event to honour Mike Nichols last night in LA with Calista Flockhart. It’s been 8 years for these two. And now supposedly engaged.

Movie Reviews and Previews The A-Team It’s a summer blockbuster. A lot of sh-t blows up. They quip a lot. Most of the sh-t that happens is absurd, like ludicrously impossible, and the bad guys squint their eyes and the good guys, obviously, prevail. So yeah, A-Team is a good time, if that’s what By Lainey • Jun 11, 2010 03:54 am
Amazingness Morning man nipples He doesn't make me quiver but he always me...happy. I can't look at Russell Brand - ever - and not smile. Or laugh. Mostly laugh. This, I suspect, is what happens with Katy Perry every day. So here's Russell in New York today, By Lainey • Jun 03, 2010 06:55 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Ben Barnes, Oscar Wilde, CS Lewis, and Bono Movie release dates are very confusing. I thought Dorian Gray was out a long time ago. And it’s available now on Air Canada, at least it was when we flew Toronto to Frankfurt en route to Nice. So I thought it had already opened in North America but now By Lainey • Jun 02, 2010 04:49 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Leo & Bar go shopping For cameras. He seems to buy a lot of them. I feel like once a year he’s photographed camera shopping. Maybe they’re for taking pictures of the tigers. He was in Asia recently on a research mission about tigers and has partnered with the World Wildlife Fund to By Lainey • Jun 01, 2010 12:36 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The A-Team Nascar We’re less than two weeks away now from the release of The A-Team. I can’t wait. It looks bad. And this is good. Because you don’t go to The A-Team expecting The Hurt Locker anyway. The stars of the movie, without their leader Liam Neeson/Hannibal, were By Lainey • May 31, 2010 12:00 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews George is flexible At least he looks that way in the trailer for The American. Have you seen it? At one point, he’s stretches flat into his legs, George the gymnast. It’s very impressive. And he’s lean and cut and seems kinda depressed and there might be a love scene By Lainey • May 31, 2010 04:35 am
Movie Reviews and Previews James is the Young Xavier Everyone wants to be in a superhero movie these days. Even the real actors. Like James McAvoy. It’s certainly a lucrative opportunity. In his case though, there is a little more than that. Just announced: James McAvoy will star in X-Men: First Class as Charles Xavier. A young Charles By Lainey • May 28, 2010 04:56 am
