UK Critics Consensus: Pineapple Express is smoking hot; If in Eden Lake, DONT hug a hoodie.
This week we have the stoner action-comedy The Pineapple Express, with Seth Rogen, James Franco and new boy on the comedy block Danny McBride, plus My Little Eye writer James Watkins makes his directing debut in British hoodie-horror Eden Lake. Then there's The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, a family...
Seth Rogen Admits He Loves Porn - “I Watch Tons”
Seth Rogen is basically a class-A role model for up and coming filmmakers. Smoke a lot of weed and watch porn then you will become a successful Hollywood actor/director and writer. Anyhoo, Rogen admits that when he initially came to Hollywood that all he wanted was to work with Kevin Smith. His wish was granted.
Rogen stars with Elizabeth Banks in Smith’s “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” a romantic comedy with a whole lot of skin showing.
The 26-year-old actor recalled a meeting nearly a

Danny McBride Q&A
Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Judd Apatow, Seth Rogen... They all agree on one thing: Danny McBride is a very funny man. He's having a breakout year, starring in indie comedy The Foot Fist Way, Stiller's war spoof Tropic Thunder and Ferrell's upcoming dino-blockbuster Land Of The Lost. This month? He's having his head split open with by James Franco in stoner-action-comedy Pineapple Express.

Banned Poster of ‘Zack and Miri Make a Porno’
The MPAA, film’s rating organization, recently banned the following poster for Kevin Smith’s upcoming movie, Zack & Miri Make A Porno, from the US.
Their reason? The suggestively placed backs of heads. This is weird, considering a similar poster from another film had no problem getting past the censors -
Sure, Dane Cook is 100 times hotter than [...]
Frat Humor Will Kill Superhero Movies In Years To Come [Superhero Hell Movie]
While Will Smith's Hancock may have failed to kill the superhero trend in movies this summer, we think we've identified the actor who stands the most chance of being the unwelcome nail in this genre coffin - Seth Rogen. It's not enough for him to be writing and starring in the upcoming Green Hornet movie. Now he's being prepped to appear in a future Kevin Smith scifi superhero movie. When will the madness end?According to Smith, his superhero project is still two movies away, following the Rogen-starring Za

Movie Review: Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make a Porno
I have a theory that Kevin Smith’s Zack and Miri Make a Porno is actually just a chronology of Smith’s career so far as a filmmaker. The film starts off much like Clerks, with Seth Rogen trying to wake up for his dreadful job. Minutes later he is walking through the local mall with his roommate and best friend Miri, played by Elizabeth Banks, in a scene that is reminiscent of Mallrats. The high school reunion sequence that follows feels oh so Chasing Amy. And when Zack and Miri must band togethe

10 Things You Don’t Know About Seth Rogen
He’s geeky-chic, and he’s bringing college humor back.
You probably already know that Seth Rogen, star of 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, is a high-school dropout, and you most certainly know he as a taste for the sticky-icky. But what else do you know about this 26-year-old Canadian? Probably not much.

High life: Why laid-back losers are actor Seth Rogen's stock-in-trade
Seth Rogen may have become one of Hollywood's most bankable actors, but the last thing he sees when he looks in the mirror is a movie star. "And please don't insult my intelligence by arguing that fact," snorts the 26-year-old Canadian comic. "I certainly don't feel like a movie star – not in this body anyway," he continues, letting out a machine-gun volley of laughter. "I think when you do comedy, you play by a different set of rules. No one really wants you to be in that good shape. Being in good sh
Official News About Ghostbusters 3!
Just yesterday we told you that Dan Aykroyd was talking about a possible sequel to Ghostbusters 3. He wouldn't give out the names of the writers but he did have this to say, "Well, y’know, two sharp young writers in Hollywood are purported to be writing the sequel, the third movie now. If I could interest Seth [Rogen] and Judd [Apatow] to be part of it, that would be an absolute dream."
Today Variety confirmed what Aykroyd was saying and upped him one by naming Lee Eisenberg and Gene

(E! Online)
E! Online - • Kevin Smith figures there’s one thing wrong with bringing a movie to the Toronto Film Fest: The audiences are way too polite.
"In Toronto, nobody turns their nose up at almost anything," said Smith, in town to hype his latest comedy, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, starring Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks.
"If you tank in Toronto, then something's seriously wrong with that movie."

"You And Sherri…Us White Folk, We'll Take Care Of You!" [VideUhOh]
newVideoPlayer("/Whoopi_Slave.flv", 506, 423,""); John McCain went on The View this morning to talk oversimply about all the typical emotional hot-button issues you'd rather hear Sarah Palin mispronounce stuff while talking about. But shit, Whoopi made it kind of awesome! After getting John McCain to babble off the classic "strict constructionist" platitudes about how the Founding Fathers who wrote the Constitution would have definitely wanted all those hypothetical future states it would annex over the ne
Love or hate her, Palin’s all we’re talking about
AP - It’s happening around the coffee machine at work and the dinner table at home. Your hear it at football games, cocktail parties and on supermarket lines. It’s consuming unmeasurable chunks of cyberspace.
It’s the Sarah Palin Conversation, and these days it can seem to be the only one we’re having — especially women, for whom it’s becoming increasingly passionate and partisan. We’re having this conversation whether we love her or hate her.

John McCain gets grilled on 'The View'
John McCain's "straight talk" rep took some hits Friday from the ladies of "The View."
McCain grew defensive when Barbara Walters challenged the reformer credentials of his running mate Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska), noting that Palin had gobbled up earmarks for her state.
"Not as governor she didn't," McCain said on the ABC-TV daytime program. But government watchdog groups charge that Palin has sought at least $200 million in federal earmarks since becoming governor in 2006.RELATED: OBAMA HITS McCain ON COM
The Nation Captures McCain in 'The Palin Trap'
Mr. Blitt's cover, which ran in July, inspired a number of parodies. Now, The Nation revamped the image as "The Palin Trap," by Karen Caldicott (with cover design by Steven Brower). It shows John McCain in his Naval uniform giving a high-five (and his signature approving pointing gesture) to Sarah Palin, who's dressed in her aerial-wolf hunting camos. She holds a rifle in her free hand. The two stand atop a polar bear skin rug with the Ten Commandments hanging on the wall of the Oval Office across
Lies and Deception Pepper John McCain’s Campaign
-McCain keeps saying his running mate, Sarah Palin, killed the federally funded Bridge to Nowhere when, when she she only pulled her support only after the project became a political embarrassment.
-McCain accused Barack Obama of calling Palin a pig, which did not happen according to the AP.
-McCain says Obama would raise nearly everyone’s taxes, when independent groups say 80 percent of families would get tax cuts instead.
The McCain-Palin campaign made at least three other claims this week tha
McCain fumbles Palin’s record on earmark requests
AP - Republican presidential candidate John McCain on Friday defended two debunked television ads attacking Democrat Barack Obama and claimed erroneously that running mate Sarah Palin never sought money for lawmakers’ pet projects as Alaska governor.
Palin sought $197 million in so-called "earmarks" for 2009. In the previous budget year, she asked for earmarks worth $256 million.
McCain made the comments during a feisty grilling on ABC’s "The View," where the panel of female hosts pressed him

50 Cent has nothing else better to do than to create beef, real or imaginary. If a second job were to be created, I think that instigator would suit him just fine.

50 Cent digs Lil Wayne, but he can’t help but notice the similarities between Weezy’s summer smash “Lollipop” and his own 2005 hit “Candy Shop.” “‘Lollipop’” is ‘lick lick lick lick i

Sarah Palin is Painful to Watch: Interview Video
If you didn't catch ABC's interview of Sarah Palin last night, you missed a lot. Palin, the Republican Vice Presidential candidate sat down with Charlie Gibson for her first interview since being nominated. We've got the video right here.
Palin shows us kind of a scary side of a person that might be a heartbeat away from the most important position in the free world. She has no idea what the Bush Doctrine is and comes off as pretty ignorant, stumbling awkwardly around Gibson's questions. Y
