Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson: The "Friendly" Dinner Date

Back in each other’s lives almost by accident (or so she claims), Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson have made up and are back on good terms. Navigating her way through life after rehab, Lindsay moved next door to Ronson in Venice, Calif., causing a brief period of tension between them. But after they made up and Sam welcomed her to the area, the two neighbors broke bread at a nearby restaurant for “a friendly dinner.” Cute. THE OLD DAZE : Might these two have a future yet? Typical of recidivist stalkers and their victims, “Lindsay has been begging Sam to see her and Sam finally gave in,” says a People source. Just kidding. About the stalking part. They really did hang out. Seems like it went well too. Earlier today, they Tweeted about the Knicks vs. Lakers game last night, with a little friendly trash talk thrown in. “I think the knicks are jet lagged. they’re getting sleepy right now – someone wake em up!!!” Sam wrote to her after the Lakers beat the Knicks. N.Y. native Lohan Tweeted back to Ronson: “They played well though :).” We’ll call it love at 3,941st Tweet, ladies and gentlemen.

Jared Lee Loughner Mug Shot: Released, Disturbing

With his arsenal of YouTube videos , Jared Lee Loughner has already given us a frightening look into his psyche. Now, the public has received another look at the 22-year old accused of opening fire in an Arizona supermarket parking lot on Saturday, severely wounding Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and killing six onlookers.

Loughner, who appeared briefly before a judge today, faces five federal charges: one count of attempted assassination of a member of Congress, two counts of killing an employee of the United States and two counts of intent to kill employees of the United States. He’s next due in court on January 24.

Terrific Carancho Trailer Features Sex, Car Accidents and Rock ‘N’ Roll

Hollywood may be taking a bit of a break from quality this time of the year, but fortunately, we still get to play catch-up with great foreign films just making their way to the states. Case-in-point: the new trailer for Carancho , an Argentinian love-story/film-noir set in the world of insurance pay-outs for car accidents. The preview, which is violent, kinetic and sexy all at once, evokes shades of Amores Perros , Bringing Out the Dead and maybe even a little of David Chronenberg’s Crash . And then there’s the swaggering Argentinian rock song that ties it all together. You may want to watch this one twice.

First Look at Antonio Banderas in Pedro Almodóvar’s The Skin That I Inhabit Hints at Sci-Fi

The first still from Pedro Almodóvar’s upcoming The Skin That I Inhabit is a doozy; a funny, sinister image that looks like it was ripped straight from a 50’s Sci-Fi movie that starred Antonio Banderas. That said, it’s still difficult to tell what direction Almodóvar is going with this one. The novel the film is based on, Mygale by Thierry Jonquet, concerns a plastic surgeon obsessed with exacting revenge for his daughter’s death while also trying to create a new type of skin. But previous synopses for the film emphasize the revenge aspect and completely ignore the science-fiction angle. Either way, it’s a great still. Check out Banderas and his experiment after the jump.
