Movie Preview: Ang Lee's Taking Woodstock
You might see the word "Woodstock" and feel like we've seen enough about the famous music festival, but this trailer for Ang Lee's first English-language film since Brokeback Mountain actually looks like it might have something new to add to the story. Taking Woodstock is kind of hilariously hard to figure out: In the lead role there's comedian Demetri Martin (who you may know from his TV show Important Things With Demetri Martin) — and then people like Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Emile Hirsch, Liev Schreiber, and Eugene Levy pop up throughout the trailer and it's like, whaaa?
The movie is based on a memoir about a motel owner and his parents who are instrumental in helping the hippies pull off the seminal 1969 rock concert.
Watchmen: Fun For Fans
It's obviously difficult to adapt a beloved written (and, in this case, drawn) work for the big screen — and it’s downright impossible to make an adaptation that satisfies every viewer (or certainly every megafan). I truly enjoyed reading the comic book series Watchmen by Dave Gibbons and Alan Moore, and having seen the film adaptation, I don't dislike it. It's probably the best we could have asked for as far as adaptations go.
The Watchmen and Women Know How to Draw a Crowd
The highly anticipated Watchmen finally hits theaters this weekend and lots of stars came out to the LA premiere last night. The ensemble cast is getting down to business promoting it, which included a stop at Wondercon this weekend. Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Billy Crudup smiled and posed together while their costars Malin Akerman and Carla Gugino showed off their long gowns.
BuzzSugar at WonderCon: Watchmen Takes the Stage!
Saturday at WonderCon started with a bang: Watchmen director Zack Snyder appeared before an extremely packed house along with his cast to reveal about 20 minutes of footage from the movie, including the opening credits.
The conversation was lively and the footage very exciting. Of course, I can't give my final opinion till I've seen the movie start to finish, but based on what I saw this weekend, it's hard for me to imagine this film stumbling too hard.
Jonathan, John And Rob Watch the Watchmen!
Last night, stars flocked to Leicester Square for the premiere of one of the most anticipated movies this year — Watchmen — an adaptation of the immensely popular graphic novel. The cast of the movie, including Malin Ackerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Carla Gugino and Jeffrey Dean Morgan showed up in their finest on the yellow, smiley-faced carpet last night, and greeted famous fans of the book including Jonathan Ross, John Thomson, gorgeous Rob Kazinsky and also Rhydian Roberts!
If you fancy checking out the book before the movie is released, you can catch up with the discussion in Buzz's book club!

Denny Supports Izzie's Love Life in Reality Too
Katherine Heigl dressed in bright colors to watch Josh Kelley perform in LA earlier this week with her costar Jeffrey Dean Morgan joining in on the fun. In Grey's world, Izzie and Denny's relationship took a big turn last night, and it looks like we're getting closer to finding out what's going on with Izzie and her visions of Denny. With the Grey's/Private Practice crossover coming up next, it might be a few weeks before we get Izzie's situation resolved, but hopefully some of the fans turned off by her arc this season will return once it's all figured out.
Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 13, "Stairway to Heaven"
On this week's Thursday night horror movie — OK, it was an episode of Grey's Anatomy, but with all the creepy music and quick camera angles and ghosts, didn't it feel a little like a horror movie? — a lot of our continuing plotlines come to their conclusions, with Meredith dealing with the serial killer and Izzie calling out Denny for sticking around. There's a little comic relief with Lexie and Mark, but most of the episode is pretty heavy.
Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 12, "Sympathy For the Devil"
This week's episode of Grey's Anatomy continues along the same path as last week's, and really, there doesn't seem to be a lot of newness, or resolution, to any of the storylines. It feels a little like the second film in a trilogy — but that's not all bad. We do get to meet Derek's mother (played by the delightful Tyne Daly) during her visit to Seattle Grace, which adds some variety, as well as a little comic relief.
Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 11, "Wish You Were Here"
As seems to be the case these days, this week's Grey's Anatomy had a bunch of things that worked and then a few major things that just did not. In the first category, we have some sweet Alex moments, the introduction of a new character who might actually make some sense, and Bailey being awesome. In the second, we have — well, you know.
