The First Image from Mad Men’s Fourth Season Arrives

It isn’t officially online yet — cheeky Entertainment Weekly actually forcing people to buy the magazine to get their content — but in the latest issue of EW , there’s a surprise for fans of Mad Men : The first new image of season four. And — SPOILER — it looks exactly like any other image from Mad Men ! Though considering the show can only do so much with wardrobe — Don Draper won’t be caught wearing a suede vest until season seven at the earliest — what did you expect? After the jump, the photo and a few more non-reveals from Matthew Weiner about where the new season is headed.

Not that I’ve pinned the entire success of the summer movie season on Scott Pilgrim vs. The World , but — pleasepleaseplease wind up being good. You never want to be overly hyped for any movie, but the marketing for Scott Pilgrim has made that impossible. The new individual character posters highlighting each of the evil exes that Scott must battle are right inline with the recent trailer and don’t stop any of the forward momentum. Get excited! After the jump, the six posters.

4 Lessons From 4 Minutes of The A-Team

Judging from the reviews , the marketing campaign and the interview stylings of Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, your hopes for the quality of The A-Team were probably nestled somewhere between Con Air and stab your eyeballs out. But if the four, hilariously non-consecutive minutes of the film that were “leaked” online prove anything, it’s that The A-Team looks like the action mess of the summer. Congrats, Joe Carnahan! You’ve managed to out-fever dream Smokin’ Aces . After the jump, the four lessons learned from the video.

The 10 Greatest Stand-Up Comedy Specials Ever

After previewing Kathy Griffin’s newest stand-up special a couple days ago, I wondered why the art of the stand-up special seems to have withered in an age where a simple one-liner can become the most popular video on the Internet. The best stand-up specials of all time remain compulsively consumable gems years later, well after Comedy Central stopped using them to pad its daily schedule. Movieline has compiled its 10 favorite specials after the jump with the hope of honoring a format that deserves to stay relevant forever. Banjos and mic stands ready!

So You Think You Can Dance Top 11: Who’s the Top Contender?

So You Think You Can Dance pulled an American Idol -season-eight on us last night, opting to add an extra dancer to its planned contestant count. Television gets magical that way. We’re left with a pretty airtight Top 11, one that includes the right amount of contemporary, ballroom, salsa, and various performers who are always ready to cry. But only one can be the favorite going into tonight’s first competition round, and we’ve got his/her emotional performance (You’ll notice krump founder Lil’ C is weeping here) after the jump.

Mortal Kombat Sizzle Reel Breaks New Ground in Fight Choreography, Reptile Babies

A mysterious short film making the rounds appears to confirm that a new movie adaptation of Mortal Kombat is en route, stripping away the kitschy gloss of the early ’90s in favor of a bleak, hyperviolent and aggressively tin-eared take on the classic video-game franchise. Dark Knight -era revisionism aside, there is something this sizzle reel has a combo no other action enterprise can claim: Jeri Ryan, Michael Jai White and deformed reptile babies! [Video after the jump NSFW, obviously.]

Jon Gosselin: Stoned Out of His Mind

This isn’t breaking news at all, but it is hilarious: A video of Jon Gosselin stoned last summer with then-girlfriend Hailey Glassman has just leaked online. If you recall, the two just started dating and were vacationing in St. Tropez, France, with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier. Looks like they had fun. An insider tells Radar Online , the king of exclusive non-stories, that they smoked spliffs (marijuana and tobacco mixed) and were drunk on champagne. Jon Gosselin, who was still married to Kate then, took turns with Hailey Glassman filming each other, making cracks about the French and lactose issues. The trip marked Jon and Hailey’s first public appearance together. When Glassman references her curly hair during a salon mishap she experienced in St. Tropez, Jon interrupts with: “It looked like big Jewish pubes.” Class . At one point, Jon, with a cigarette up his nose, says: “This is how the French smoke. They smoke so much they put cigarettes in every orifice of their body.” While there is no paraphernalia or anything, and it certainly matters little if they were actually stoned, their behavior would certainly suggest that it’s true. You can see the rest for yourself after the jump: Jon Gosselin Stoned

TBS Starts Own Emmy Campaign for Conan O’Brien’s NBC Tonight Show

Hoping August’s Emmy Awards are a bit more awkward than usual this year? So is TBS. In an act that can only be described as full-on taunting, the network has taken out a series of “For Your Consideration” ads for The Tonight Show with Conan O’B rien with the hopes of landing O’B rien an Emmy nomination and placement on the NBC telecast. “Conan’s great work in 2009 and 2010 deserves Emmy consideration. We’re very excited to have him join TBS later this year,” said Turner Entertainment Networks president Steve Koonin, presumably with a massive, sh*t-eating grin. The ads make no mention of NBC — or Jay Leno — but they do make jokes about Coco’s skin and Twitter following. So there’s that. Take a look after the jump.
