VIDEO: Kid from Adorable Darth Vader Volkswagen Commercial Also Adorable

Posted on February 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

For the record, Movieline HQ was buzzing about the Darth Vader Volkswagen commercial days before it aired on the Super Bowl. OK, so was the rest of the Internet, but, still! It was easily the best ad of the night — sorry, Eminem and Timothy Hutton! — and had the Super Bowl party I attended coursing with delight after it aired. One surprising question did arise, however: Was that an actual child underneath the Darth Vader helmet, or a little person? As one friend theorized, the hand gestures and acting seemed too good to simply belong to a precocious six-year-old. Except for the fact that apparently they did.

Pointless List Ignores Too Many Screen Beauts, but Why?

Posted on February 8, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Now hear this: Movieline loves a good pointless list . Problem is, we like when pointless lists actually have a point — and people are ranked and weird subject matters are brought to the fore. In the case of LA Times Magazine ‘s newest list, the 50 Most Beautiful Women in Film, the selections aren’t even ranked. They’re just listed in alphabetical order, as if we don’t know who Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor are, and need to look them up in the Yellow Pages. The amount of notable omissions is also worthy of a fight. Let’s give them one.

I know. As you dragged yourself out of bed this morning and went for the Asprin, one burning question clawed it’s way through the post-superbowl haze: “Did I drink way too many beers or was that Transformers 3 spot actually kind of awesome ?” It’s actually a fair question! Now, since all fifteen movie advertisements that aired last night are online, let’s take a sober look at each one and see how they fair on the Movieline Superbowl Ad Report Card.

Uma Getting Married: The Ceremony Trailer is a Tweerific Affair

Posted on February 4, 2011 by | Leave a comment

You’d watch Henry Winkler in just about anything, wouldn’t you? Children’s Hospital ? Arrested Development ? Joanie Tolerates Fonzie ? Anything. Well, Winkler’s son Max is a freshman director whose first film Ceremony pairs Uma Thurman with a bunch of up-and-coming funny actors. Let’s watch the trailer and see if young Max can revitalize “wedding crashing” as a comic subgenre without jumping the shark. Ha Ha .

5 Examples of David Letterman Eating Something He Shouldn’t

Posted on February 3, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Confession: I took some heat at Movieline HQ this morning for not including David Letterman’s lotion-eating segment in today’s Late Night Highlights , but that’s only because I’ve seen the whole “Dave’s eating something he shouldn’t be” gag a few times before. Don’t believe me? Here’s a primer on all the things Letterman should have thought twice about before ingesting.

What is Charlie Sheen Really Trying to Say in His Press Release?

Posted on February 3, 2011 by | Leave a comment

As you might have heard, Charlie Sheen has released a statement about his recent drug-and-porn binge and the subsequent rehab that has shut down production on the megahit Two and a Half Men . While it’s pretty obvious to anyone observing the situation that Sheen is anything but sorry, the actor did make a vague attempt to explain his plan to correct the situation. Actually, no — this might be the most cryptic press release in the history of press releases. As a service, Movieline has translated and annotated Sheen’s official statement where possible:
