11:07:50 AM Will Edmondson: Tara, per our readers' mandate, we saw "Cop Out" last night, and I, for one, feel pretty okay about it.
11:08:19 AM Tara Ariano: I didn't have especially high expectations for it (quite the contrary, in fact), but I was pleasantly surprised!
11:09:02 AM Will Edmondson: You seemed to be dreading it!
11:09:19 AM Tara Ariano: It was getting pretty horrendous reviews (like Richard Roeper's, above), so I had cause.
11:10:22 AM Will Edmondson: Yeah, and we'll get to that later, because wow, some people do not like Kevin Smith!
"Glee" hasn't aired a new episode in nearly two months, but now there's a way for us to fill the space it left in our hearts, apart from watching the cast and producers on all the award shows they're sweeping: "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" has created its own take on the subject matter, with "6-bee." See it above, hope that the intention is for it to become a recurring segment (in the tradition of "The Real Housewives of Late Night"), and click "continue reading" for the rest of last night's late-night highlights.

Blind dates are such easy targets for television and movies. In fact, there was even a show devoted to them. It was called "Blind Date." Clever, right?

continue readingLike any celebrity, Ashton Kutcher's made some bad decisions in his career: Wearing that scarf during his "Saturday Night Live" monologue (above) is a good example. But if this recent National Enquirer rumor is true, it'd take the bad decisions cake: Kutcher is rumored to be interested in producing a movie based on Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's divorce. The romantic comedy would also feature the Moore character's escapades with a man 16 years her junior...presumably because cougars are the new "Who Let the Dogs Out?": A weird, overused pop cultural phenomenon that just needs to go away.
Again, this is from Mike Walker's National Enquirer gossip column, but he quotes Kutcher as describing the project to Bruce Willis thusly: "It's a PR bonanza with built-in headlines." Mark my words: If this movie really happens, "2012" will end up being a work of non-fiction.
2:56:21 PM Will Edmondson: Okay, so for this week's Big Movie, we had a problem: We saw the #1 movie, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, last week, and the #2 movie was "Surrogates." And no one wants to see "Surrogates."
2:57:34 PM Tara Ariano: After several hours of argument, we settled on substituting a movie currently in theaters with one available right here on the site, which you can also watch, above: the 2004 Zack Snyder remake of "Dawn of the Dead."
2:59:08 PM Will Edmondson: Look, if you're reading this and you're upset about us "breaking the rules," here's your "Surrogates" recap: "Ugh, 'Surrogates.' Hey, Bruce Willis's Surrogate sure does have a lot of hair! Man, that movie was average. God, I can't wait 'til next week."
2:59:59 PM Tara Ariano: Indeed. And "Dawn of the Dead" ended up being an excellent alternative. I had seen it before (in fact, I own it on DVD). But even Will liked it. EVEN WILL.
3:01:47 PM Will Edmondson: I'm not going to be baited.
3:01:56 PM Tara Ariano: But you did, right?
Have I ever mentioned how much I love fake educational films? They're so earnest and dorky! The 7 1/2th floor orientation clip in "Being John Malkovich" is my favorite part of the movie, the and every episode of "Lost" that goes by without a '70s-era Dharma instructional tape breaks my heart a little. (If you enjoy them too, please do yourself a favor and seek out the first season of the British show "Look Around You" -- it's like an '80s classroom video series as produced by Monty Python.) Anyway: if you also appreciate a nice joke about sincere over-explanation, you will enjoy the clip above, from last night's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," in which viewers are instructed as to how to be a "Late Night" audience member.
More highlights from last night's late-night talk shows are after the jump.
continue readingRumer Willis was all smiles and sweetness during her appearance on "Letterman" last night, and she even did an adorable impression of daddy Bruce playing craps in Vegas (all that acting practice she's gotten from "Sorority Row" and "90210" must be paying off). She seemed so calm and normal that I was almost convinced of her sanity, until she stated -- with complete seriousness -- that her stepdad Ashton Kutcher "is one of the wisest people" she knows. Oh, dear. She's either an even better actress that I thought, or she's totally bats. Maybe both.
Where's Frank Caliendo when you need him? The impressionist in the video above could have a field day with this bit. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis have agreed to do a cameo with Sylvester Stallone in his movie, "The Expendables."
The action stars who brought us John McClane, Rambo, and the Terminator have never shared the screen before, although they did team up for Planet Hollywood.
Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, and Jason Statham star in "The Expendables" as mercenaries overthrowing a dictator in South America. But that's not enough muscle, is it? Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Steve Austin, and Randy Couture are also in the film, which is set for release in April.
David Letterman's Top 10 list last night (read by Bruce Willis, who was only there to meet Paul McCartney) contained only a trace of Sarah Palin humor, a reference to a "Fire David Letterman" rally. Is Dave finally ready to leave her alone?
Maybe he better. Today Gawker notes Palin's recent Tweets about her encounter with a "mama bear" in the woods. The governor writes:
"Great day w/bear management wildlife biologists; much to see in wild territory incl amazing creatures w/mama bears' gutteral raw instinct to
protect & provide for her young;She sees danger?She brazenly rises up on strong hind legs, growls Don't Touch My Cubs & the species survives"
Could these be a veiled message to detractors? Is someone callin' for a maulin'? Better safe than sorry, we say. Best to stay close to your movie-star pals from now on, Dave.
Recently, Ashton Kutcher has been mostly out of the spotlight; spending the majority of his time wrangling his followers on Twitter and filming videos for the two million people stalking him. He's been mostly harmless, with the exception of some plugs for his numerous trendy L.A. restaurants and Bruce Willis's latest "Die Hard" movie, but our break from Kutcher appears over: He's "acting" again in "Spread" (trailer above); playing a character that's strongly reminscent of his "Punk'd" days.
Of course this means Kutcher will soon be making the rounds on the late night circuit, promoting himself, the film, and his cougar wife. And he'll talk about his movie's plot, which tells the heartwarming story of a notorious womanizer who is outraged when the girl of his dreams treats him badly. Clearly, the role was a stretch for him. Ugh.
In case you have forgotten the witticisms and pouts of Kutcher's youth, you can re-familiarize yourself with some of his antics after the jump.
