Cash-Strapped Weinsteins Launch New Web Site Full of Naked Girls

Mainstream America loves its smut. And if there’s anything the Weinstein Company learned two years ago in their failed efforts to market Zack and Miri Make a Porno , it was never to send a fake porn flick to do a real porn flick’s job. Hence (I think) the new viral Web site Wild Wild Girls , a prohibitively NSFW exercise on behalf of Piranha 3-D . Did I mention it’s NSFW ?

What’s On: A Trip to Xanadu

But first, some poetry: Let’s get animal, animal I wanna get animal Let’s get into animal Let me hear your body talk Let me hear your body talk Sound familiar? It’s from one of the top ten singles of the 1980s. And someone will sing it at your kids tonight.

Jimmy Fallon to Host Emmys

Neil Patrick Harris may have triumphed as the 2009 Emmys emcee, but now it’s NBC’ s turn to broadcast the show, and they’re selecting Jimmy Fallon to host the 2010 ceremony on August 29. Does this mean we’ll see a tuxedo-aided beer pong rematch with Betty White? What about a suspiciously choreographed Auto-Tune sketch ? Both will be fine distractions when Mad Men ‘s Matthew Weiner goes up to receive at least two more trophies. [ The Wrap ]

15 Questions Lost Has Yet to Answer

Don’t look now, but there are only a few more hours of Lost left before the series finale. Does the show have enough time left to answer all the questions it’s posed since the very first season, and do the producers even want to?

Last night, the Real Housewives of New Jersey returned for their second season, proving once again that they are the stars of Bravo’s Housewives franchise.

So pull up a chair to Movieline’s industrially reinforced dining room table — we are not risking another flip this season — as we pluck the truest and fakest moments from last night’s episode, “Water Under the Table.”

Rubber Teaser: Spend 37 Seconds with the World’s First Homicidal Tire

Summer movie season has got me down , son. Down , like Hollywood pushed me in a shallow grave onto which every studio in town quickly shoveled whatever hype they’d manufactured to date. Suffocating, I was reincarnated as a Johnny Cash song. Stifling! Until this morning, when the French stepped up their game with 37 seconds that took the summer back — at least until Iron Man 2 opens. But you know what? Even Tony Stark is probably no match for a psychopathic tire on a murder spree.

The Gossip Girl Pun Index: Moving Pieces on the Board

With only two episodes left in the season, Gossip Girl has finally decided to let its characters in on most of the season’s big secrets. So: Jenny’s drug-dealing past has finally been brought to Rufus’ attention; Rufus’ possible infidelities have been brought to Serena’s attention; Vanessa’s three-month internship with CNN has been brought to Dan’s attention; and William’s feelings for Lilly have been brought to everyone’s attention. Though Lilly’s fake cancer diagnosis (tip: Don’t trust your doctor if he’s your ex-husband and still in love with you) is still hanging over the show like a cloud of Chanel perfume. Still, for an episode so ripe with set-up, Gossip Girl herself kept the puns to a minimum. Maybe this should be the Gossip Girl Witticism Index instead? Click ahead for the fun.

Movieline Casts David Chase’s New Movie

Paramount Pictures has announced that on May 8th in Manhattan, they’ll be holding an open casting call for the three leads in David Chase’s new film, “a musical-driven coming of age story set in suburbia.” So, basically, That Thing You Do! Got it. While it’s nice that the studio has given a modicum of hope to struggling actors everywhere, if you think Chase’s first post- Sopranos project is going to be some Todd Phillips-like free-for-all with a bunch of no-name first-timers, you’re crazy. Cue up some Journey, check out the casting notices, and take a look at our suggestions on who should star:

The American Trailer: Does This George Clooney Film Owe a Debt to Lost?

I’ve been looking forward to the Anton Corbijn-directed, George Clooney-starring thriller The American for a while, and the new trailer doesn’t disappoint. Not only is it beautiful, spare, and visually striking, but it appears to be a big-budget feature version of “The Economist,” one of my favorite episodes of Lost .
