‘Hangover’ Mob Boss Leads Best Villain Nominees At MTV Movie Awards

Posted on June 3, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Christoph Waltz, Stephen Lang, Tom Felton and Helena Bonham Carter battle Ken Jeong to be named baddest of the bad. By Jocelyn Vena Ian Anthony Dale and Ken Jeong in “The Hangover” Photo: Fox There are very few characters who can get your blood churning like this year’s contenders for Best Villain at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards , airing this Sunday, June 6, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on MTV. Everyone from a tyrannous queen and a Nazi commander to a mob boss and a power-hungry colonel are in the running to be named baddest of the bad. First up is “Inglourious Basterds” star Christoph Waltz , whose stone-cold Nazi colonel, Hans Landa, proudly accepts his “Jew hunter” nickname. Will he hunt down a Golden Popcorn? Only time will tell. Being the only lady nominated might work in Helena Bonham Carter’s favor. Playing the wicked Red Queen in “Alice in Wonderland,” she certainly held the imaginations of moviegoers everywhere, but can she do the same for Movie Awards voters? All good comedies need an antagonist, and the guys in “The Hangover” found theirs in Ken Jeong. What did viewers learn from Jeong’s turn as Mr. Chow? Just hope a mob boss’ casino winnings don’t get lost. We pray he doesn’t lose at the show. Yikes! The stars of “Avatar” proved that even in a world that only exists in the mind of James Cameron, the characters can feel as real as the people they know. And Stephen Lang’s portrayal of Colonel Miles Quaritch had fans fearing for the Na’vi. Tom Felton gave Daniel Radcliffe a run for his magic wand in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” Playing Harry’s magical archrival, Draco Malfoy, Felton was a worthy competitor for Harry, but can he cast a spell on the Movie Awards? Who do you think is bad enough to win at the big show? Discuss in the comments! Don’t miss the live red-carpet coverage, exclusive movie clips and fist-pumping action on MTV News’ “Jersey Shore Blow-Out at the MTV Movie Awards,” airing live from Los Angeles this Sunday, June 6, at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Then stay tuned for the 2010 MTV Movie Awards at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Miss New Jersey Wants in on Jersey Shore

Posted on June 3, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Lots of girls want to get with The Situation. Why that is, we can’t exactly say. But it’s true. This one, however, wants to get with him … and Ronnie, and Snooki , and Sammi, etc. No, not in that kind of way. Margaret Skourlis, the current Miss New Jersey USA, wants to become a new roommate for Season 3 of Jersey Shore , for which producers are auditioning peeps. She auditioned for the show last week, despite being Greek-American, not Italian (huge faux pas) and says she can handle The Situation shirtless . Easily, too. Why? She’s survived beauty pageants. You think a half dozen hotheads intimidate her? “We’re not as evil to each other but we’re just as snippy in other ways.” Margaret’s best selling point? She says pageants and Jersey Shore both “excenturate things.” No idea what that means, but she needs to be cast on JS … now. Um, yeah. J-Woww and Snook would eat Mags alive .

‘New Moon’ Vs. ‘Avatar’: Nikki Reed, Ke$ha, Akon Debate MTV Movie Awards Battle

Posted on June 2, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘Is it a teenage thing or is it revolutionizing-filmmaking thing?’ Tyrese Gibson asks of the face-off. By Eric Ditzian Photo: 20th Century Fox One year ago, the MTV Movie Awards featured a face-off between vampires and orphans , as “Twilight” was up for seven awards and “Slumdog Millionaire” was tapped in six categories. The battle turned into a blowout, as Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s flick nabbed five wins, and “Slumdog” was completely shut out. 2010 at the Movie Awards brings us another epic throw-down – this time between the vampires of “New Moon” and the big blue aliens of “Avatar.” Both films are nominated in five categories, including Best Movie, Best Kiss and Best Female Performance. Which one of these blockbuster titans will triumph this Sunday at the awards show? That’s up to you, because fan voting is currently under way at MovieAwards.MTV.com . But fans aren’t the only ones who have a say in the competition. That’s why we asked some of our favorite celebs who they would vote for when it comes to this heated debate: Team “Twilight” or Team “Avatar”? “That’s not a fair question,” said “Twilight” franchise star Nikki Reed. “I think I have to stick with my movie on this one, although ‘Avatar,’ there are no words.” The likes of Kim Kardashian, Marisa Miller and Stephanie Pratt sided with Reed’s choice of “New Moon.” But for every Twilighter we spoke with, there was an “Avatar” fan ready to vote the other way, like Eli Roth and Adam Lambert. Or take Akon, who said simply, “I love ‘Avatar.’ That movie is amazing.” And then there are the folks who haven’t yet hit the cinema or popped in the DVD so they can make an informed choice in the “New Moon” vs. “Avatar” debate. “I can’t vote, only because I’m narcoleptic and I never made it through either one,” confessed Ke$ha. Count Kristin Cavallari among the non-voters as well. “I haven’t seen any of the ‘Twilight’ movies or ‘Avatar,’ ” she said. “I’m so out of the loop with everything!” So which flick is going to conquer on Sunday night? Stay tuned. For now, we’ll give Tyrese Gibson the final word. “Is it a teenage thing or is it revolutionizing-filmmaking thing?” he said. “And if it’s revolutionizing, then James Cameron’s definitely going to take it.” Don’t miss the live red-carpet coverage, exclusive movie clips and fist-pumping action on MTV News’ “Jersey Shore Blow-Out at the MTV Movie Awards,” airing live from Los Angeles this Sunday, June 6, at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Then stay tuned for the 2010 MTV Movie Awards at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Related Videos Get Ready For The 2010 MTV Movie Awards!

Think Giraffes Can’t Swim? Science Proves They Can

Posted on June 2, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s long been thought that giraffes , with their tall necks and spindly legs, were incapable of swimming–unlike virtually every other mammal on the planet . But thanks to a team of researchers, who are strangely curious about such things, it’s been proven once and for all that giraffes can indeed handle a dip. Figuring out giraffes possessed this surprising aquatic ability was actually a lot easier than you might think, requiring no special water wings or pool–… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Gleebasing: Schue and Sue Make Sweet Funk

Posted on June 2, 2010 by | Leave a comment

Last night, Schue & the Family Stone taught viewers about funk by moaning about Regionals-related depression, singing about how hard it is to be a pregnant teen, and saying the word “funk” over 50 times. Oh yes, the episode was funky — and not in a good way. Like most of Glee ‘s installments over the past two months, last night’s “Funk” introduced a funk jam of story arcs that won’t be continued next week, some heavy-handed after-school lessons, and another one of Schue’s embarrassingly white dance moves (let’s call it the funky butt rock). So grab your groove thang and let’s relive last night’s stank rhythms.

New Interview Pretty Much Proves There’s No Explaining Killer Inside Me

Posted on June 2, 2010 by | Leave a comment

If there’s anything Movieline learned from viewing Michael Winterbottom’s lady-pulverizing adaptation of The Killer Inside Me last January at Sundance, it was that the acclaimed British filmmaker may very well be answering for this one, like, forever . Keep in mind this is a guy who once managed to make graphic, unsimulated screen sex forgettable, so no one takes it lightly that Winterbottom might have really drilled into the cultural consciousness for the first time since 2002’s In This World . This could get good — if only he could articulate his impulse to make ground chuck out of Jessica Alba’s face.

Sonja Morgan Arrested for DWI

Posted on June 2, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Considering how Bravo’s Real Housewives like to throw around their money – seriously, read all about the party one of them threw for a nine-year old this week! – you’d think they could afford to hire a chauffeur. Instead Sonja Morgan got pulled over for drunk driving early this morning. The newest Real Housewives of New York City cast member failed to halt at a stop sign in Southampton Village around 2 a.m. and then proceeded to fail a field sobriety test. Morgan refused a Breathalyzer and was taken to local police headquarters, arrested for DWI. Sources told The New York Post she had been on the island throughout Memorial Day weekend. Morgan will appear in court to face the charge at a later date. Feel free to draw a mustache on her mug shot.
