BP Can’t Stop the Massive Oil Leak – Can Hollywood?

Photo via the First Post BP’s attempts to stop the gushing oil geyser it unleashed upon the Gulf of Mexico have only sounded like Hollywood plot contrivances: Lower a giant ‘top hat’ over the leak! Let’s go for operation: ‘top kill” to blast the thing shut. Or how about a giant ‘junk shot’ to plug it with garbage. So if BP execs’ plans to halt the oil flow were the stuff of B-movies, what would real H… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Gleebasing: Schue and Sue Make Sweet Funk

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.

What’s On: Talent or No Talent

Howie Mandel replaces David Hasselhoff on the panel of America’s Got Talent tonight alongside Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne. If Howie’s air-fistpumps to a fire-juggling troupe isn’t your thing, more traditional choreography and slapstick awaits you in the rest of tonight’s lineup.

Buzz Break: Re-Enter Entourage

The Verge: Alicja Bachleda

Some roles change an actress’s career, and then some roles change her life. Neil Jordan’s fairy-tale thriller Ondine did both for 27-year-old Alicja Bachleda, who stars in the title role as a mysterious young woman caught in the net of the Irish fisherman Syracuse (Colin Farrell). Revived and stabilized, she is thought by both Syracuse and his physically ailing daughter to possibly be a selkie — the mythical sea-woman creature of Irish folklore. Ondine’s gifts for singing fish into Syracuse’s net and treating the sick girl only compound the suspicion; their increasing closeness sets up a romance both on- and offscreen (Bachleda and Farrell became an item on the set, having a son together in 2008), not to mention a quintessentially Jordan-esque meditation on a woman who isn’t what she appears to be.

Donald Glover Tweets for Spider-Man

While you were stuffing your face over the holiday weekend — with alcohol, right guys?! — Donald Glover was busy creating an Internet meme. The Community star — spurred on by a commenter to an io9 article suggesting that the actor cast in the Spider-Man reboot should be non-white — has begun campaigning for an audition to play the friendly neighborhood web-slinger. And campaigning in 2010 means a Twitter hashtag (#donald4spiderman) and Facebook pages devoted to making it happen. Hey, it worked for Betty White. [MovieViral via Vulture ]
