Sarah Palin’s Alaska Recap: Mortal Karibou: Annihilation

Unfortunately, the highpoint of Sarah Palin’s Alaska this week was its promise of a Gosselin-Palin crossover campout next week. Damn it. We don’t live in next week yet! The quail haircuts and Piper vs. Madelyn Pay-Per-View Bare-knuckle Beatdown will have to wait until then. The good news is this: Sarah Palin shot a caribou square in the boob last night, and her father whinnied with pride. It’s enough to make a grown man (caribou) cry (fly backwards in a bloody heap). To the recap!

Which Famous Men Have Inspired Sofia Coppola’s Lead Characters?

While there is not much confusion about (or variation among) the themes Sofia Coppola has explored in her four feature films, she has encountered some speculation and rumor-mongering about the inspiration for some of her male characters. Continuing this trend, Coppola has recently copped to basing Somewhere ‘s disillusioned actor (played by Stephen Dorff) on a collection of famous actors, including one Coppola family member. In honor of this acknowledgment, Movieline reviews the famous men from whom Sofia gleaned both alleged and admitted inspiration the past decade.

20 Rejected Combinations that Were Considered to Host the Oscars in 2011

By now you’ve had a few hours to digest the news that James Franco and Anne Hathaway will host the Academy Awards next year , something that is likely a dream come true for Twentieth Century Fox (perhaps Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis can do an interpretive dance to commemorate the ten Best Picture nominees, too!).

Gleebasing: ‘I Think I Want to Marry You’

While reliving the glorious high of Gwyneth Paltrow’s episode of Glee last week (do not be foolish; it was her episode entirely), Movieline sadly figured that viewers would not score another hit of Ryan Murphy’s series this season that would produce the same euphoria. But we were wrong, because last night’s episode — regrettably titled “Furt” — delivered what Gleams* are made of: a storyline in which Sue Sylvester marries Sue Sylvester, Mike O’M alley steals screentime from Schue and Carol Burnett guest-stars as a deadbeat mother who sings Broadway tunes. Now onto the highs and lows.
