Woody Allen Wouldnt Hestitate to Cast Michelle Obama in a Movie

If another term in the White House doesn't happen, First Lady Michelle Obama might have a fallback: Woody Allen says he "wouldn't hesitate to ask her" to be in one of his movies. He's actually done it before: Allen cast France's First Lady, Carla Bruni, as a museum tour guide in 'Midnight in Paris.' Allen told the British television program Daybreak that he made the decision...

Third Largest Theater Chain May Boycott Tower Heist Over VOD

You weren't the only person to scoff at the idea of Universal offering the upcoming action comedy 'Tower Heist' to residents of Atlanta, Ga. and Portland, Ore. via on-demand services for the high, high price of $59.99 three weeks after its release.

The Princess Bride Cast Reunites on Good Morning America

Buttercup, Westley and Miracle Max all in the same room?! Yes, the cast of 'The Princess Bride' reunited on the set of Good Morning America on Friday to reminisce about the fairytale flick and its place in film history. (Also, is 'The Princess Bride' really more than twenty years old? Yikes.) So, if you've ever wanted to see Billy Crystal wear his Miracle Max hat or know what...

The controversial 'Human Centipede II: Full Sequence' opening Friday in 18 select theaters around the country has already achieved a mountain of notorious hype.

Sean Young Recreates Crazy Catwoman Stunt To Prove She Not Crazy

Some of you might be too young to remember the time Sean Young tried to prove she'd be the perfect catwoman in 'Batman Returns' by dressing up in a homemade costume and stalking Tim Burton. (Needless to say, she didn't get the role.) But this week she donned the outfit again to prove she's "ready to pay my dues," as she's having trouble getting work. See her cringe-worthy...

Screw You Human Centipede

Sobering thought before you check out for happy hour on Friday afternoon: we currently live in a world where there are not one, but two movies about creating human centipedes. When the aliens from 'A.I.' are surveying the wreckage of Earth in 3,000 years, that's the type of thing that they might point at and say, "Thank God these guys are gone." Put another way: this is why...

Presidents Clinton and Bartlet Watch The Way Together

Last night, a well-to-do crowd of generous New Yorkers enjoyed a rare opportunity to hang out with two presidents of the United States: Bill Clinton and Josiah Bartlet. The occasion was a charity screening of 'The Way,' starring Martin Sheen -- who played Bartlet on 'The West Wing' from 1999 to 2006 -- and directed by Sheen's son Emilio Estevez. Clinton, who was there to support...
