Good Wife Status Update: Social Network Episode Coming!

The Good Wife is about to poke a little fun at The Social Network . A meta-ish episode of the CBS legal drama slated to air in February will revolve around Patric, a “sincere, shy, and unremarkable suburban kid in sandals and a hoodie” whose website has made him a fortune. The problem?

The 2010 Hollywood Style Awards: No Prizes For The Social Network Here

While critics and awards groups spent the weekend fawning over The Social Network , one star-studded awards show went down with little acknowledgment of the critical juggernaut. Last night, our parent company MMC helped honor film and television fashion at the 2010 Hollywood Style Awards with The Palazzo Las Vegas, Klipsch and FRS ® Healthy Energy® (Or, let’s say “The Hollywood Style Awards” for short). While they chose not to honor Mark Zuckerburg’s admirable tenacity to shorts and sandals, the event did yield a possible hint about Finn and Rachel’s relationship on Glee , news from Kate Bosworth that T-shirts are still in style and more. Here’s a rundown of the prizes and a few highlights from coverage so far.

Weekend Receipts: Jesus Lion and Pudgy Johnny Depp Both Kinda Bomb

There were no real winners this weekend as the third Chronicles of Narnia movie faced off against The Tourist and both of them performed well under expectations. But, like a Nevada Senatorial race, there had to be a victor, and Narnia edged out Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie for the dubious honor of not doing as horribly. Your weekend receipts are here.

A Holiday Battle of the Guest Actors: 30 Rock Recapped

30 Rock arrived bearing a gift last night (just in time for Liz Lemon’s yuletide spent aboard a bus to Whitehaven): a cavalcade of the show’s finest guest stars, including Alan Alda, Elaine Stritch, Will Forte, and Elizabeth Banks. That’s delightful already, but Movieline believes no such assemblage of characters is worthwhile without declaring a winner. After much debate, we have our choice for last night’s best guest performance. Take heed, Emmy voters.

On DVD: Alice in Wonderland and the Other 2010 Movies That Made Us Hate 3-D

Unless your 3-D movie this year was about piranhas or jackassery, odds are that the stereoscopic effect prompted headaches more than it did enthusiasm. Case in point: Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland (now available from Walt Disney Home Entertainment), a movie that would have been merely annoying and underwritten screened flat, but wound up having the extra misery of those glasses and those blurry effects with the 3-D that was added to it in post.

The Top 3 TV Stereotypes of the Week: Sorority Row

From Tracy Jordan’s “serious actor” on 30 Rock to Busy Philipp’s blond sorority girl on Cougar Town , this week was actually a success for stereotypes everywhere — in that television writers found clever ways to spin yesterday’s generalizations. Well, except for those story editors working on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills — they still have some work to do.

Ryan Gosling on Blue Valentine, Bleeding Nipples and No Longer Being a Pornographer

The Blue Valentine awards show freight train pulled into the Kips Bay AMC in New York City on Thursday night and the perpetually stoic stars of the film, Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams, got downright hysterical. In the span of just ten minutes the prettier-than-thou duo were retelling stories of nipple bleeding, the recent overturn of their film’s controversial rating and the rumored trysts of Marilyn Monroe. Are these two joking their way to (deserved) Oscar nominations?

Weekend Forecast: Lions and Fighters and Tourists, Oh My

First Thor Poster: The Gods Go to Sin City

Paramount really should have considered putting the title Thor on this poster, because anyone who is not in the know will just get pumped for a Sin City sequel when they see this. It’s actually a little surprising that no one was beaten to a pulp with a huge hammer like this one in the first Sin City . Anyway, click below the jump to see the poster in all of it’s black, white and red glory.

Kill The Irishman Trailer: Meet the Rasputin of Mobsters

Sure, some mobster movies as pretty elegant allegories for the American dream, capitalism and greed. But by the time the tenth bomb explodes over the blaring hip-hop/metal soundtrack in the trailer for Kill The Irishman , it seems pretty clear that this particular based-on-a-true story mafia saga is mostly about the violence and tough-guy posturing associated with the genre. While it looks like a total bore, it does make you miss Christopher Walken.
