Instead of fighting, just throw everything in a pan and sear with butter, we’ll do the rest, thanks; computers never know when you just want to play checkers or something; Kevin James should always be available for unfunny things; Sean Penn sulks in a corner; and people still host TV shows?
Today’s dish is covered in Cholesterol and we like it!
Two old guys hitch up their elastic waistband slacks and yell at their computers; some unfunny person tries to convince us that she’s funny based on the success record of the NBC network; Science Fiction to hopefully get a shot of adrenaline; Desperate Housewives is still on television; a superhero gets a part-time job, and the unemployment line is about to get royal.
This Hollywood Dish needs pudding and a nap.
Once upon a time, everyone was writing a novel. Now, everyone who isn’t making a video game or a graphic novel is writing a screenplay. You could use some help, right? Why not eliminate the slow part of the process (writing) and proceed directly to the Producer’s notes? This hilarious web site will take you there.
So basically our most beloved feuding characters won’t be in a movie about feuding, the Oscars seem like a great gig…to some, NBC updates its parenting stance from twenty years ago, a few less ladies talk, some rich guy gets a new job, and birds won’t have their way with a Hangover dude.
Today’s Hollywood dish feels lame.
More sex on your teevee — well, you asked for it. The return of an SNL icon, or maybe just some guy who freezes under the spell of Kanye West. Johnny Depp won’t be eating beans by a fire, romantic comedies need more ice cream, what you won’t be watching next year, and action stars don’t age… they ripen. Mostly.
You love Hollywood dish more than your shoes.
Hola! Today our news is going to cover boys; gross, nasty and potentially Cootie-infected boys. Sure, some of us clean up well and you girls might even LIKE a few of us but underneath it all, there lies a fart factory with cheeto-dusted fingers who has considered Febreeze a perfectly reasonable alternative to doing laundry. Today we honor those brave guardians of gross, those knights of nasty and those sentinels of sick. There are boys covered in (or becoming) mud. We’ve got boys that manage to turn everything into one huge mess after another. We even have one boy so eager to play a video game that he wanted to be born right on the convention floor. All this and we introduce DC Comics’ newest intern in this week’s NERD. NEWS. ROUNDUP. Continue reading
Well, what do you know, someone’s found a use for Lifetime after all — you know, for their scripted series department. Also, Tyler Perry wants to ruin television, Bruce Willis gets Joed, and American Idol judge negotiators yell Mission Accomplished.
Hollywood dish is mostly best served cold.
I propose that they just make a movie called Reboot, which discusses the process of rebooting a movie. You know, how they decide which marginally successful 1980’s movie hasn’t been touched by the hand of Michael Bay or Brett Ratner (who’s producing this year’s Oscars by the way. We have been forsaken.) and then how they sell its earning potential to a studio. Can’t you just imagine the Weekend at Bernie’s pitch meeting, or the discussion of Killer Klowns from Outer Space over sushi? I’m not really sure how these things happen. Maybe it’s more like spinning a Price Is Right Wheel, but somehow these ideas make it to the big screen mostly to our utter confusion and despair.
Let’s take a look at what Hollywood has on tap for the coming future.
Hello, good people of Nerdsylvania! I know that I’m preaching to the choir when I tell you that nerds come in all colors, shapes, genders, sizes and levels of cleanliness. But, sometimes it’s necessary to have a bit of a refresher course every now and then. That’s why this installment is so important. This week we learn that DC still loves the ladies, Spider-Man has a brand new enemy, The Game of Thrones welcomes a new resident or two and something about Perry White is different. All this and the Demon King of England in this week’s NERD NEWS ROUNDUP!
There’s nothing better than getting down to the final moments of a movie and being totally absorbed and invested in what’s playing out on that screen. Watching it unfold becomes a bit like magic. Whether you credit the acting or the storytelling, when you come across a movie ending that is just so good, so breathtaking, or moving, it gives you the same sense of satisfaction as say finding $10 in between sofa cushions, or waking up an hour before your alarm. For a real movie lover it can make shelling out $12 and braving the undulating horde of opening weekend moviegoers worth it. You’ve gotta be careful, though. Every once in a while you’ll come across flammable polyester culottes wrapped in a golden fleece, and you’ll wind up witnessing a certified suckfest.
Take a look at a few movies that have left many of us speechless. Continue reading
