Whoever coined the phrase "It's better to ask forgiveness than permission" was clearly never dragged to court. Monster Energy Corp. wasn't so lucky.

David Duchovny has a point: when 20th Century Fox has a homegrown franchise like "The X-Files" that can make a profit on a limited budget, why not make a third movie? He said that he and co-star Gillian Anderson are both strongly in favor of a third big-screen installment.

August 10, 2012 @ 1:23 pm PST    The Beast     Sean Comer    
It's a shame Patrick Swayze isn't around to witness this one. Unlike the attempts to revive "Dirty Dancing," this is a take on one of his better-known roles that looks like it might do it justice. How will "Red Dawn" stand up as a 2012 remake compared with a decade's topical cult classic?
