Hey, Who’s Ready For the New Big Tits Zombie Trailer?

I arrived a little late to the Japanese phenomenon that is The Big Tits Zombie , a 3D grindhouse throwback whose original trailer winked a little too hard at the viewer in April. The new one isn’t really that much better, but at least it has an improved and more fully realized sense of vision, narrative and genre. Oh, who am I kidding? This makes George A. Romero look like Robert Bresson (if Bresson were NSFW ).

Sandra Bullock’s Agent: Not So Fast on That Proposal Non-Sequel

Winning an Oscar means never having to say you’re sorry. Unless, of course, you’re Kevin Huvane, the CAA partner who has spent the early part of this week deflecting rumors that his client and white-hot Best Actress incumbent Sandra Bullock is in line to reunite with her Proposal peers for her next project.

Rick Baker Not Done Bitching About The Wolfman

Makeup wizard and passive-aggression trailblazer Rick Baker has a bit more to say about the mishandling of The Wolfman , which he “hoped would bring back monster movies.” Alas, Universal: “To put out a movie called Wolfman on Valentine’s Day weekend against a movie called Valentine’s Day ? I didn’t really understand the logic of that. What do you expect? Release it on Halloween and I’m sure it would have done a lot better.” Allllways the second-guesser, this guy. Oh — and accurate.

Glee Star Didn’t Qualify for American Idol

Did you know that Glee ‘s Amber Riley auditioned for American Idol at age 17? Randy Jackson is just finding out. “Yo, that girl Amber Riley, she I guess, I didn’t know this, she didn’t make it to us,” he told Extra . “She auditioned for Idol and got rejected. She’s like the lead singer, the lead star of Glee , and let me tell you something America, this girl is talented and she can really sing.” I’m sure Riley auditioned just for the approval of Randy Jackson, so this is probably quite validating. Thanks, dawg. [ Extra ]

The Muppets Nabs Christmas 2011 Date

Someone alert Joe Biden ! Disney announced a release date today for the big-screen kinda-reboot The Muppets : December 25, 2011. It’ll be directed by James Bobin from a script by Jason Segel and Nick Stoller, and though Segel will be in the cast, Charles Grodin definitely won’t be . Perhaps they could fill his absence with a role for noted Muppet-phile Lady Gaga ? [ Coming Soon ]

What’s On: The Perfection of New Directions

Are you prepared to leave Glee for the summer? Tonight’s season finale sees some big cameos, the big showdown of the year, and more scheming from that tracksuited dame with the bullhorn. I’d prefer the soundtrack include every obvious song choice: “The End,” “Last Dance,” etc. I think Mercedes has some mad Jim Morrison and Donna Summer poses in her.

REVIEW: Winter’s Bone a Little Too Pleased With its Own Folky Bleakness

Debra Granik’s Winter’s Bone is one of those movies — like last year’s inner-city down-a-thon, Precious — that can’t quite make a distinction between profundity and plain old bleakness. The story of a 17-year-old girl in rural Missouri who’s desperate to find her ex-con father (he’s skipped bail, endangering not just the family’s modest house but its very survival), Winter’s Bone often feels stiffly self-conscious: Even though it’s based on a novel, it has the aura of a gritty documentary, as if Granik distrusted the idea that fiction alone could ever be good enough to get to the truth of human lives.

Should Michael Fassbender Do X-Men or Spider-Man?

You know you’ve made it as a really interesting actor in Hollywood when you’re offered a comic book villain, and so it is that Michael Fassbender must make a choice: according to Fox 411 , he’s been hotly pursued to play both Magneto in X-Men: First Class and the yet-unnamed villain in Marc Webb’s Spider-Man reboot. Of course, Fassbender does have a bad guy role on the books already in Jonah Hex , but let’s just forget about that for now — after all, Warner Bros. has . [ Fox 411 ]

Matthew McConaughey to Create the Wackiest Malibu Beach Comedy Ever

You’ve spent years combing through tabloid pictures of Matthew McConaughey running in Malibu, surfing in Malibu, skateboarding in Malibu, and practicing yoga in Malibu, but pretty soon, you’ll be able to flip on the television and see Matthew McConaughey’s own comedy series set in Malibu. And the description is pretty wild.

Eric Dane Ribs Katherine Heigl for Emmy Submission

Katherine Heigl’s self-submission for a Best Supporting Actress Emmy has her Grey’s Anatomy co-star Eric Dane confused: “For what ?” he asked E! Oh, snap. When they replied, “Um, for Grey’s Anatomy ,” he backpedaled and said, “Oh! It’s great! Fantastic! I love it! Why?” If this is Dane’s way of ribbing Heigl for not appearing in much of Grey’s this season (and hating what little she did ), he’s done a pretty good job. That said, Dane himself only has a chance of winning if the Emmys finally open the controversial “Best Naked Cavorting with Rebecca Gayheart” category. [ E! ]
