I wouldn't suggest dropping an anvil on your head anytime soon, but it turns out that cartoons aren't always all fantasy. Case in point: National Geographic took inspiration from Pixar's "Up" and made a house fly with balloons!
The stunt is apparently part of NatGeo's new show "How Hard Can It Be?" which sets out to accomplish amazing feats like, say, getting a house to fly using only balloons.
Charlie Sheen finally did something that could actually hurt his popularity on Saturday. He was boring. As in painfully boring. As in "jumping the shark" boring.
His abruptly announced Ustream.tv web show “Sheen’s Korner” (with the lame tagline "You're either in Sheen's Korner or you're with the trolls") was an under-developed, ill-conceived exercise in mental masturbation – sort of like a cross between a sub-standard episode of “Wayne’s World” and a weak-ass impersonation of Howard Stern.
It was an eclectic weekend of movie releases, with a sci-fi romance thriller, a teen romance, a 1980's-style romantic comedy, and an animated movie not entirely for kids. So which one came out on top?
"Rango" was the big winner this week, taking the number one spot with $38 million. The animated film, which stars Johnny Depp as the voice of a pet chameleon who decides to have his own adventure in the Wild West, was also the best-reviewed movie of the films released this weekend.
Anna Paquin's "True Blood" character Sookie Stackhouse has her pick from a line of supernatural boyfriends: she finds herself the object of the affections of vampires Bill and Eric, and lately of werewolf Alcide as well. So which one of the three does Paquin hope Sookie will choose?
"None of them," said Paquin with a laugh, speaking at PaleyFest in LA.
When you're the biggest teen pop idol in the world with millions of adoring fans, where can you turn for dating advice? How about to the one star with as many (if not more) adoring fans than you?
Pop star Justin Bieber apparently got a bit of advice about the ladies from Robert Pattinson, the much-adored star of the "Twilight" series. Bieber reports that Pattinson approached him with a few tips on how to get girls: "One day Robert Pattinson came up to me at a party and said, 'For whatever reason, people love our hair and it's always a great ice-break
Ever since Tim Burton's wildly-successful, though not terribly faithful in tone, spirit, or content, adaptation of "Alice in Wonderland" hit theaters, fairy tales have been all the rage in entertainment development.
No less than three "Snow White" film adaptations were racing their way to theaters (one currently has Julia Roberts attached), but it looks like two executive producers who saw "Lost" through are going to outdo them all by putting all the fairy tales on one weekly program.
The walking talking pop culture experiment that is Charlie Sheen keeps getting weirder and weirder, and now it's going live.
Charlie Sheen is hosting a live web stream on UStream.tv called "Sheen's Korner," and about all we know (except that they are currently running a series of fart noises) is that the show's tagline is "You're either in Sheen's-Korner or you're with the trolls.
March 8th will be a big day for Gleeks.
Not only will they rock a new Neon Trees cover “Animal,” Glee: The Music, Volume 5 goes on sale with two original music tracks.
The tracks “Loser Like Me” and “Get It Right” are the first original songs produced for the show.
“Loser Like Me” was co-written by pop guru Max Martin, who has written for singers like Britney Spears and Pink.
Earlier today, actor David Arquette gave us all a bit of a shock when he crashed his car into oncoming traffic. According to reports, Arquette was on his way to a party hosted by Kim Kardashian when he swerved to avoid a car that had stopped abruptly in front of him, causing him to run head-on into another car.
TMZ reported on the story early, and stated that Arquette was lying on the ground and bleeding, but after Arquette and the other driver involved in the accident were taken to the hospital, doctors announced that both of them had suffered only mild to moderate injuries.
You usually don't want to publicize a casting confirmation before the studio announces it, but sometimes you just can't help yourself...especially when you're the screenwriter and producer for the upcoming movie "Snow White and the Huntsman" and the confirmed actress for the lead role is "Twilight" star Kristen Stewart!
Palek Patel, who wrote the "Snow White" script and is producing the film, tweeted earlier today that Kristen Stewart is a go for the title role even though an official announcement won't be made until next week, as
