No fanfare planned for Guy Ritchie's 40th birthday
Guy Ritchie already celebrated a milestone birthday this year: wife Madonna's 50th. So the filmmaker isn't thinking much about his own milestone birthday on Wednesday. "I've thought less about my 40th birthday than almost any other birthday," said Ritchie, who was in Toronto to promote his new film "RocknRolla," which opens Oct. 8. "I'm not sure if that's kind of an unconscious thing. But I have no plans. So I hope someone's organizing something for me." But don't expect a Madonna-sized bash, he said.

No Shatner in ‘Star Trek’, JJ? What Happened?
AMCTV caught up with JJ Abrams while he was out promoting his new show, ‘Fringe’.  The subject of Abrams next directing gig, ‘Star Trek’, and, more specifically, why there would be no William Shatner came up.  Here’s what Abrams said: It was very tricky. We actually had written a scene with him in it that was a flashback kind of thing, but the truth is, it didn’t quite feel right. The bigger thing was that he was very vocal that he didn’t want to do a cameo. We t

A-HA! JJ Abrams Admits That William Shatner WAS To Be In ‘Star Trek XI’
AMC's SciFi Scanner recently spoke with JJ Abrams, who finally admitted that a scene has been written for William Shatner in his upcoming Star Trek prequel. For months now, Abrams and his team have denied that Shatner would appear in Star Trek XI and in return, Shatner -- who played the iconic role of Captain James T. Kirk in the original Star Trek television series and its subsequent films -- has been very vocal about his disappointment in not being a part of the new film. Abrams said that although a "fl

Where In The World Is Gary Glitter: The Saga May End Soon (Maybe) [Mr. Yuk]
Disgraced glam star Gary Glitter has agreed to return to the UK after attempting to find shelter in Hong Kong during a stopover in Bangkok. But in case you thought the tales of him feigning a heart attack and being denied entry to Hong Kong weren't nutty enough, the Times Of London has a ton of craaazy details on the past three days of what one other British paper called "an international game of ping-pong," a few of which we've excerpted after the jump. He threw around his name, and it worked

Why Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale named their boy “Zuma Nesta Rock”
Last night when the news broke that Gwen Stefani had her baby and named it Zuma but the gender wasn’t known yet the first thing I did was look up the name. Since it was listed as a girl’s name, and sounded pretty feminine to me, I made up an “it’s a girl” graphic, declared it a girl and hoped to call it a night. Then People came out with the news that the Stefani-Rossdale’s had decided to name their little boy Zuma and it became the latest addition to the ever-growing lis

High Times: Sarah Silverman And The Best Of Pot Psychology [Pot Psychology]
I just got back from my Tennessee vacation yesterday morning, which was kind of a bummer because I had so much fun, but the blow of returning to reality was softened by something kind of surreal. Last night, Pot Psychology was part of a comedy event in Brooklyn that also featured Sarah Silverman! I could not have been more stoked about it. That is, until I got stoned to the bone right before I got there, which turned out to be a horrible idea because when I arrived, the tiny venue was packed, which sparked

This Quote Sums Up Everything About John McCain and the Press [Telling Anecdotes]
"Back in 2000, after John McCain lost his mostly honorable campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, he went about apologizing to journalists—including me—for his most obvious mis-step: his support for keeping the confederate flag on the state house." That is Joe Klein, an exceptionally annoying Time columnist. He sorta gets why that is ridiculous, now, but in case he isn't all the way there, let's try to break it down for him: John McCain took an idiotic and offensive stand for the

New York Fashion Week! Crazy! Celebs dressing up to see models! Oh what a world.
Leighton, Molly Sims, Jamie Lynn Sigler and Robert BuckleyFashion week is one of the major events of the year in New York City. It is when even the most L.A.'st of celebrities (hello Sophia Bush) make a trip to the big apple to go into large tents surrounded by L.A. people. This is the height of culture for many of these people. This year did not disappoint with appearances by Lindsay of course, Christina Ricci, Winona Rider and pretty much anyone who has a show filmed in New York like Leighton Meester, Bla

A Cameo In The Tucker Max Movie [From The Mailbag]
Fun fact: Drew Curtis, the guy who runs linky website Fark, went to high school for one year with professional asshole (but not moron) blogger-turned-film writer Tucker Max. So Drew somehow got handed a cameo role in I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell. Drew—who's big enough on the internet to not give a fuck what we or Tucker Max think—sent us a full report, saying Tucker is "out of control" but the actors are doing a good job, considering the material they're working with. And pictures! Click through now:

J.J. Abrams tells us why there’s no Shatner cameo in new Star Trek movie
A: It was very tricky. We actually had written a scene with him in it that was a flashback kind of thing, but the truth is, it didn’t quite feel right. The bigger thing was that he was very vocal that he didn’t want to do a cameo. We tried desperately to put him in the movie, but he was making it very clear that he wanted the movie to focus on him significantly, which, frankly, he deserves. The truth is, the story that we were telling required a certain adherence to the Trek canon and consistenc

JJ Abrams Talks about Why William Shatner won’t be in the new Star Trek Movie
AMC TV recently sat down with JJ Abrams to talk about his upcoming TV Show Fringe. During the interview William Shatner is brought up. I figured Shatner was not going to be in Abrams Star Trek but at least they tried. Q: How do you react to William Shatner’s ire at not having a role in the movie? A: It was very tricky. We actually had written a scene with him in it that was a flashback kind of thing, but the truth is, it didn’t quite feel right. The bigger thing was that he was very vocal that

The Shield 7.1 - Coefficient of Drag
FX may be heavily promoting this year of “The Shield” as its last, but tonight’s season premiere felt like it could have taken place anywhere in the show’s timeline. Sure, Vic may be hanging on to his career by a thread, and Shane continues to dig himself into an even bigger hole every time he tries to do “the right thing,” but something about the forthcoming season reads like a page out of the show’s golden years. What’s even better is that it actually makes sense. After all, Vic is trying
