Michael Cera and Jack Black Start Off at Year One
Michael Cera and Jack Black coordinated in purple accents for the premiere of Year One in NYC last night. Their costar Christopher Mintz-Plasse was lucky enough to have gorgeous Zoe Kravitz on his arm, who stood out in her glittery dress among all the funny men on the red carpet. Ed Helms also came out to show his support, and even though The Hangover will be getting some competition at the box office this weekend, he and the boys already have a sequel in the works.
Frost/Nixon: A Solid and Entertaining Talkathon
Doubt and Frost/Nixon have a lot in common: Both are stage-to-screen adaptations, both are receiving a lot of awards buzz, and neither has a particularly compelling visual story to tell. Instead, the drama lies in the words people are saying. I've heard both of these movies referred to as "grown-up" cinema, which is probably apt given that it takes a pretty mature attention span to fully appreciate them.
Frost/Nixon Kicks Off The London Film Festival 2008!
A screening of new movie Frost/Nixon was the focus of the gala opening of the London Film Festival 2008 last night. The film is based upon Sir David Frost's interviews with US president Richard Nixon in 1977, and Sir David was one of the guests at the event last night, posing for photos with the actor who plays him in the Ron Howard-directed movie, Michael Sheen. Sir David said it had been a landmark moment in his life, interviewing this man who was "going towards his mea culpa", and Michael spoke about playing Sir David on the red carpet, explaining:
"David Frost is not a character...
Movie Preview: Ron Howard's Frost/Nixon
"There's a reason they called him Tricky Dick."
The international trailer for the new Ron Howard movie, Frost/Nixon, has arrived and from what I can tell it looks pretty amazing. Based on the well-received play of the same title by Peter Morgan (the same man who wrote the script for The Queen), the movie chronicles the true story of a series of televised interviews Nixon gave to British journalist David Frost in 1977.
TV Tonight: Nip/Tuck
"LA's newest implants" aren't of the silicone kind; they're Sean McNamara and Christian Troy, who are making the leap from Miami to Los Angeles in tonight's season premiere of Nip/Tuck. And while the new city provides a welcome change of scenery, the satisfaction is for the viewer only as business isn't exactly booming at the McNamara/Troy office. In fact, the two men find themselves without any clients at all and must resort to hiring a publicist to get their practice rolling.
David Beckham Makes a Charming Prince
Photographer to the stars Annie Leibovitz has been recruited to photograph some huge celebs for Disney World's Year of a Million Dreams campaign. So far she's turned Scarlett Johansson into Cinderella (with the help of a Harry Winston $325,000 tiara), Beyonce into Alice in Wonderland, and David Beckham into a prince (wait, he wasn't one already?). Guess which one is our favorite so far?

2012: Apocalyptic Good Times
In terms of end-of-the-world movies, 2012 packs it all — a love story, teary family moments, action-packed adventure, over-the-top-CGI, and a ton of recycled film cliches — in a two and a half hour package. That's lengthy by today's standards, but I wasn't bored for a minute. This is pure escapist entertainment.
2012 — See It or Skip It?
John Cusack stars in the new big budget movie from Roland Emmerich, 2012. Also starring Thandie Newton, Oliver Platt, Woody Harrelson, Amanda Peet and Jimi Mistry, the movie depicts "an epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors." It certainly looks epic from the action-packed trailer, and I'm a John Cusack fan so I'm looking forward to checking this movie out when it hits cinemas in November.
NPH Entertains an Exuberant Crowd at the Tonys
Neil Patrick Harris donned a shiny tux and a big smile, hosting the Tony Awards last night at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. Broadway veteran John Stamos and newcomer Anne Hathaway were among the stars who stepped out to present awards. Dolly Parton, Stockard Channing and Elton John took the stage, as well as Bret Michaels who injured himself during the big opening number.
First Glance: Year One — See It or Skip It?
Funnymen Jack Black and Michael Cera have teamed up for new movie Year One, in which they star as a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers who get banished from their primitive village, and then end up going on an epic journey through the ancient world.
Olivia Wilde, Paul Rudd, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Oliver Platt and David Cross are just a few of the actors that show up along the way in this movie, directed by Harold Ramis. It looks like a traditional road trip buddy film, with the twist of the time period, and the trailer did make me laugh which definitely makes me want to see it.
