Justin Timberlake joined friends for a round of golf in LA yesterday afternoon. He's enjoying some downtime after dealing with some recent stalker drama and before he gets down to work on The Social Network, which started filming this week in Maryland. JT might have another movie project coming down the pipeline — he's apparently negotiating for a role in an upcoming animated Yogi Bear flick that's also set to star Anna Faris and Dan Aykroyd.

Potential nerd alert: recently, I have become rather captivated with time travel movies. What's not to love? The main characters make some kind of fantastical journey through time, typically to make things right.

When Precious first caused rumblings at Sundance, I thought, "There is no way I'm seeing this film." There are certain things that I find uncomfortable to watch — pregnant teens, abuse, Mariah Carey. But I'm so glad I did.

The idea of a reform school for girls seems to come straight out of a B-movie from the '50s, complete with stock characters like the naïve innocent, the hardened mean girl with a heart of gold who ends up plotting a way for them both to escape, and an evil warden who gets in their way. It's hard to believe that such a place could still exist.
Until August of this year, the notorious Beloit reform school for girls in Beloit, KS did exist, and the school, founded in the 1890s, only recently shut down because the state could no longer afford to house the remaining 21 girls to the tune of $200,000 a year.

When you have a parenting movie set in New York, you should know better than to expect a warm-'n'-fuzzy story about the joys of having kids. In fact, Motherhood is out to prove that mothers have it rough.
The film follows Eliza Welsh (Uma Thurman), a Manhattan writer dealing with a cramped apartment, busy husband, and side-street parking while raising her two kids.

As Halloween fast approaches, I've started thinking about scary movies — as you can probably tell from my recent Guess Who quizzes! There's been a lot of buzz from the States lately about new movie Paranormal Activity, which comes out in the UK on November 27. The budget movie was filmed on a handheld camera — like The Blair Witch Project — and follows a couple investigating the possibility of a supernatural presence in their room at night.

This is the week for Broadway shows! Not only are the current theater selections raking in more cash than usual despite the economy, it also sounds like we'll soon be seeing two more musicals move to the big screen. I already told you about the plans for a Rock of Ages movie musical, and now comes word that Miss Saigon may be getting the film treatment too, with Lee Daniels in talks to direct.
