Tim and Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie Teaser: WTF?

Posted on November 30, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Let me preface this by saying that I love Tim and Eric’s bizarro-surrealist sketch comedy shtick, and when I write “WTF?” I don’t necessarily mean it in a bad way. It’s just… what else can be said about the new ultra-brief teaser for Tim and Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie ? What reactions other than “WTF?” did these evil comic geniuses even intend?

Seth Rogen Thinks the Oscars Screwed Over James Franco

Posted on November 29, 2011 by | Leave a comment

If there’s one thing we still need to discuss, it’s the 2011 Oscars and how co-host James Franco bungled them up. (If you believe that, I have bunch of leftover Sarah Palin jokes I’d like to fly for you.) Fellow Freaks and Geeks alum Seth Rogen responded to a question regarding Mr. Franco, and he finally weighed in on the Oscars’ decision to hire young hosts. Specifically, he thinks the Academy screwed James Franco over.

Movieline’s Interactive Shame Map: Explore NYC With Director Steve McQueen

Posted on November 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Among the most admired (and controversial ) films of 2011 is also one of the most striking New York-set movies in years: Shame , director Steve McQueen’s unflinching glimpse inside the life of Manhattan professional Brandon Sullivan ( Michael Fassbender ) as he struggles with sex addiction and his reckless sibling Sissy (Carey Mulligan). The quotidian nature of Brandon’s routine — subway commutes, nondescript office work, late-night jogs — not only mask his emotional freefall, but belie the everyday tensions, pleasures, challenges and privileges associated with living in one of the world’s most intoxicating cities. Now you can tryst where Brandon trysts, drink where Brandon drinks, and brood where Brandon broods thanks to Movieline’s interactive Shame location map.

Olivia Colman on Tyrannosaur and Playing Meryl Streep’s Daughter in Iron Lady

Posted on November 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Paddy Considine’s British drama Tyrannosaur opens with an act of violence so brutal and bleak that, as Olivia Colman told Movieline earlier this month, it caused some audience members to bolt out of theaters. If they had stayed, though, they would have seen the film evolve from the portrait of an alcoholic widower’s despicably primal urges to the tale of his redemption.

REVIEW: Scorsese’s Hugo Melds Modern Filmmaking with a Glorious Sense of the Past

Posted on November 23, 2011 by | Leave a comment

God help filmmakers who become legendary: Even if they manage to avoid becoming prisoners of their own high standards, there’s no escaping those of their audience. And so Martin Scorsese has taken perhaps one of the biggest risks of his career — bigger, even, than making a radiant, low-key movie about the origins of the Dalai Lama — in adapting Brian Selznick’s subtle and wondrous children’s novel The Invention of Hugo Cabret . You just know there’s going to be some asshole at the dinner party asking, “Yes, but how does it compare with Taxi Driver ?”

Miss Piggy on The Muppets, Amy Adams’ ‘OK’ Voice, and Kermit’s Dirty Secret

Posted on November 23, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Miss Piggy has been a TV and movie star for decades, but in The Muppets , she finally gets the spotlight to herself and dominates the entire film start to finish — or so she’d have us believe. The Muppets is a showcase for many of her colleagues, but she’s the only character who gets a split-screen duet with Amy Adams and a very contemporary wardrobe. Movieline caught up with the porcine superstar (who is voiced by Eric Jacobsen) to discuss the new movie, her new look,and the bodily secret that Kermit doesn’t want you to know.
