Movie Preview: Astro Boy
Back at Comic-Con I was treated to a sneak peek at Astro Boy, Summit's CG-animated film based on the Japanese TV series. At the time, the movie was overshadowed by New Moon anticipation, but I finally got a chance to see the cool, futuristic trailer without distraction.
Freddie Highmore voices the title character, a boy robot who's been engineered to perfection with all kinds of fun gadgets.

Hayden Takes Care of Her Own
With no Milo Ventimiglia in sight, Hayden Panettiere had a much younger man, her brother Jansen, on her arm at the premiere of The Spiderwick Chronicles in LA last night. Hayden's still a family girl at heart, but earlier this week that backfired a bit.

Lindsay and Hayden Hang Out in Capri
Lindsay Lohan was honored this weekend at the 12th Annual Capri Hollywood International Film Festival for her amazing work in film. Clearly they missed out on all the other shocking LL headlines and amazing photos as evidence which most of us were following. Maybe this honor will help LL continue her good girl stride and have her concentrate more on those great performances we remember like Freaky Friday and Mean Girls.
