The 10 Best Screenshots from Justin Bieber’s Shooting Death on CSI

Posted on February 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

For once, if you see on Twitter that Justin Bieber has “died,” it isn’t totally false. On Thursday night, the politically savvy teen star finished his arc as a teen bomber on CSI by getting brutally gunned down by a group of police officers after pulling a gun on them. Allow me to express your feelings about that ridiculous sentence in the form of an exclamation point cluster: !!!! If you were too busy watching The Office and Parks and Recreation to see this happen live, however, fear not: Ahead you can watch the Biebs get offed in slow motion, then click through Movieline’s slideshow of screenshots.

Could Ryan Murphy’s New FX Project American Horror Story Be Good For Glee?

Posted on February 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Just two days after Fox aired a mediocre episode of Glee entitled “The Comeback,” co-creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Fulchack have announced their own comeback. The pair are returning to the network’s cable offshoot FX — where they created Nip/Tuck — to film a mysterious pilot called American Horror Story . While no details were given about the subject matter of the project — other than the fact that the hour-long drama will begin production in April — we here at Movieline HQ think that the diversion might actually be the perfect remedy for the creators of Fox’s tired musical series.

It’s unofficially Kim Cattrall Day at Movieline! Woo! How dubious! First we got our anti-hopes up for Sex and the City 3 , and now new pictures from Cattrall’s film Meet Monica Velour are out . In the indie drama, she plays an ’80s porn star who starts a romance with a teenage superfan in Indiana. Let’s take a gander and see if this looks worse or “better” than Bonfire of the Vanities and Mannequin .

Posted on February 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

With Shout! Factory releasing the Mystery Science Theater 3000 take on Ray Dennis Steckler’s horror musical The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies on DVD this week — coming on the heels of the widespread acclaim for Sundance midnight entry Hobo with a Shotgun — it seemed like as good a time as any to look at some of the most unwieldy, memorable, and occasionally even poetic movie titles ever concocted. Such as:

VIDEO: So That’s Why Hereafter Was Nominated for an Oscar

Posted on February 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Perhaps in response to all those people left stymied by Hereafter ‘s Oscar nomination for visual effects (especially when Tron: Legacy got shut out of the category, poor thing), Warner Bros. have released a shot-by-shot reel showing how VFX supervisor Michael Owens and Scanline VFX put together that nine-minute opening tsunami sequence. And when you see how the live-action parts came together combining CG, green screen, water tanks, and on-location photography — well, “Oscar-nominated Hereafter ” doesn’t sound so silly anymore.

Great Day For Movie Lovers: Martin Scorsese and 5 Other Singular Directors Announce New Projects

Posted on February 17, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Somewhere in between false rumors about an Olivia Wilde Tomb Raider reboot and hopefully untrue speculation about another Terminator sequel , six interesting directors including Martin Scorsese, Richard Kelly and Kimberly Pierce announced new projects today. Thanks, movie-news Gods! Granted, not all of these projects will necessarily turn out well (or even at all), but if past work is any indication, the ones that crash and burn will at least do so in a unique, fascinating and hopefully spectacular fashion (Looking at you, Kelly…). Click through for a rundown and place bets on your favorites.

Whoopi Goldberg Apologizes for Misunderstanding the Newspaper

Posted on February 16, 2011 by | Leave a comment

On Monday, Whoopi Goldberg got so mad at the New York Times ‘ article about black Oscar winners that she bellowed about it on her bellowing hour, The View . Writers Manohla Dargis and A.O. Scott didn’t mention her Oscar win for Ghost , which prompted Goldberg to call their work “shoddy’ and imply that the article should have been more about the bellow-filled career of Whoopi Goldberg. Problem is, the piece never meant to list every black Oscar winner; Louis Gossett Jr. and Cuba Gooding Jr. weren’t mentioned either. Goldberg realized this today and apologized in a hilariously half-hearted way.

The Cinema Verite Trailer: Jon & Kate Plus James Gandolfini

Posted on February 16, 2011 by | Leave a comment

There is something truly amazing yet unsettling about hearing James Gandolfini talk in his non-Tony Soprano voice. It has a dog-walking-on-hind-legs quality to it — your ears do what amounts to a double take. Of course, the different voice choices are how you know when Gandolfini is “acting” and not merely doing a variation on his famed — and brilliant — portrayal of Tony Soprano on The Sopranos . Sometimes the accents fail (cough, Welcome to the Rileys ), but they are always an interesting choice. To wit: His affectation as a sleazy reality television producer in 1970s California is perfect in the trailer for Cinema Verite . How about the rest of this movie-about-a-documentary telefilm?

When Lea Michele Met Barbra Streisand: A Play in Two Tweets

Posted on February 14, 2011 by | Leave a comment

To say that Lea Michele has been waiting to meet Barbra Streisand for a long time is a bit of an understatement. When Movieline caught up with the Glee star last summer to play My Favorite Scene , all she could talk about was Babs’ star-making turn in Funny Girl . “I just related to that movie so much,” she said. “It’s my favorite movie ever.” As anyone who saw her performance at the Tonys — or any minute of Glee , in general — can attest, she wasn’t lying. So, what would happen if Michele ever got the opportunity to meet Streisand out in public? Some hyperventilating and tweeting, of course.

Was Whoopi Goldberg’s Oscar Win Snubbed in the New York Times?

Posted on February 14, 2011 by | Leave a comment

The View has a bimonthly tradition (approximately) of making headlines, and the latest “controversy” is a wee one: Whoopi Goldberg claims The New York Times didn’t mention her in an article called ” Hollywood Whiteout ” about this year’s rather Caucasian field of Oscar nominees. It touches on Oscar history too, and Whoopi said that the failure to mention her Oscar win for Ghost hurt her “terribly.” Is Goldberg’s outrage warranted?
