Someone Should Buy Barbara Walters A Dictionary And Dogear The "Fs"
Do you think Barbara Walters believes the dictionary is like Wikipedia in that you can change any entry to reflect your desires? Actually, on second though, do you think Barbara knows what Wikipedia is? In any case, I bring it up because clearly she is applying the term "fascinating" to whatever she damn well pleases at this point with her annual snore list, which we're still calling "The 10 Most Fascinating People." You wanna know what was fascinating? The stuff she said on Oprah while hocking her book "

FINALLY! ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT THE MOVIE & LARK’s JASON BATEMAN MOMENT
Arrested Development is hands down the best show to ever appear on your TV screen. The trials and tribulations of the Bluth family are epically good, the writing is stellar and the acting perfect. If you are a fan of this show, then you can debate for hours with people over which episode is best: When Buster gets his hand eaten by a seal,  Tobias as never-nude, when Ben Stiller guest stars as a magician as Job tries to get back into the Alliance or really any show involving the bannana stand. There has

Why Won't Cera Even Acknowledge the Idea of an 'Arrested Development' Movie?
A couple months back, Jason Bateman appeared on Countdown with Keith Olbermann and not-so-subtly plugged the idea for a movie version of his sort of recently canceled show, Arrested Development. Like 30 Rock, It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia, and all good things on TV right now, AD was a genius program that still managed to tank in the ratings despite a rabid cult following. But while the rumor mill quickly churned all over the blogosphere (much of it Olbermann's fault, he's on top of the s

The Verdict: Arrested Development and Vin Diesel in xXx 3. Plus, Shocker, Twilight Sequel a Go!
Rumors have been floating about this one since, more or less, the day the show was canceled. But now Variety is reporting that creator Mitch Hurwitz is "close to a deal." Does this even qualify as news? I don't know, but I'm so excited by the idea that I'll take anything I can get. Verdict: This one's at the top of my wish list, let's hope for a Christmas miracle. Ridley Scott to Direct ... Monopoly? This sounds like a hoax, but The Hollywood Reporter says Scott has been confirmed on the adaptation of th

Morning Deal Report: An "Arrested" Development
Twilight was gleaming at the box office this weekend, staking its claim to $70.6 million. (Gleaming! Staking! Can you believe Variety hasn't hired me yet?) Those are Harry Potter numbers, so it's no surprise that the Twilight sequel New Moon has already been greenlit.

Which 'Arrested Development' Star Is Ready To Ditch Michael Cera? [Defamer Blind Items]
E!'s Kristin Dos Santos brings us more news on the suddenly snowballing Arrested Development movie, including the new information that the film is budgeted at $15 million (around what we'd estimate the theatrical ceiling is for this property, though homevid sales should be killer). However, her most interesting tidbit, divulged to her by a principal cast member wishing to remain anonymous, is what the reaction is to someone (cough Michael Cera cough) who's not so keen on the big screen transfer: "

Remember Mystery, from VH1's The Pick Up ... [The Pick Up Artist]
Remember Mystery, from VH1's The Pick Up Artist? We got an awesome email from a male reader who was out in LA last night with his two female roommates. He went to go to the bathroom and when he returned, Mystery was hitting on the two girls, and trying to perform magic tricks that reminded our reader more of Gob from Arrested Development, than of a professional Casanova. He confronted Mystery on his trademark "neg" strategy, in which he tries to insult women to lure them in. Mystery denied that, and then aw

Yet another AbFab remake on the way
Filed under: Industry, Programming, Pickups and Renewals, Reality-Free The brain behind Arrested Development is now developing an Absolutely Fabulous remake for Fox. For those unaware, the British series is about an immature, hippie-era mother, her best friend and her intelligent daughter (played respectively by creator Jennifer Saunders, Joanna Lumley and Julia Sawalha). In the height of her popularity, Roseanne tried to remake the show and involved the creators and co-stars. Sadly, that didn't come to pa

ROME The Movie to Feature Jesus?
Some series just don’t get the respect they deserve. I was a huge fan of Arrested Development and then it got canceled because of low ratings, either that or Fox is being a usual a-hole. But now that the movie version is going to be developed, I’m glad to hear that another favorite of mine might get a theatrical version too.. nothing’s confirmed or official yet but a man can hope. According to Hollywood Repoter, Producer Bruno Heller who we should thank for the awesome short-lived HBO his

Shia LaBeouf Enters the World of John Grisham
He's had the honor of being the on-screen offspring of names like Harrison Ford and Carrie-Anne Moss. He's faced a few different types of robots. And now, well, he's following the likes of Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Matthew McConaughey, and Matt Damon. Variety reports that Shia LaBeouf is going to star in the next John Grisham flick cooking up at Paramount, The Associate. If it doesn't sound familiar -- that's because it's an upcoming novel slated for release in January. The film will focus on a stude

Terminating the Terminator
Unbelievable. Just un-stinking-believable. Last year, as anyone who has read my blogs will know, I suffered through each and every episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I didn’t think the show was too good, cause it seemed all that happened was people running around and things blowing up. There was no real story behind it all, at least it seemed so to me, and we never got a chance to know the characters. But this season, only 5 episodes in, they’ve fixed all that. For me, thi

The Star Report: Roman Polanski, 75, wants old child sex case dropped so he can return to U.S.; plus Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears, Patrick Swayze
Lifelong raconteur Jack Nicholson could soon have his wing man back at his side. Lawyers for presumably reformed pervert Roman Polanski, a fugitive in France for 30 years in a case involving a 13-year-old girl, filed a request Tuesday to dismiss the charge against him due to prosecutorial and judicial misconduct. The motion alleges that a documentary film about Polanski released earlier this year revealed "a pattern of misconduct and improper communications" between the district attorney's office and the j

The Earnest Fumbling Manchildren Of Film Make Crappy Boyfriends [Nick And Norah's Failed Relationship]
Hollywood Elsewhere's resident crank Jeffery Wells wondered earlier this week if Michael Cera's career is on the wane, in part because he plays the same role over and over again. While I'm excited to see Cera in Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist when it hits theaters Friday, I have to concur that he is playing the same hypersensitive, passive, awkward semi-loser that he portrayed in Superbad, Juno and Arrested Development. And furthermore, this character, whom I'll term the Earnest Fumbling Manchild, is no

Beyonda Farce’s ‘Stylist’ Cranked The FUG Dial Up To 10
Beyonce Knowles is definitely in ‘Sucha Farce’ mode, in these images of her arriving at the “Cadillac Records” premiere at the AMC Loews Theater in New York [Website – Amy Grindhouse]. What kind of GD hair/ make up etc. etc. etc. is this anyways? Is it not bad enough that Farce wears space-age swimwear as her casual ‘day’ look, now she is dressing as Bat Girl. WTF is up with this dress? That is if you can bear to call this monstrosity a ‘dress‘, without

The Tales Of Beedle the Bard
That being said, I’ve always been a big supporter of the Harry Potter books. Well, as most of you know- J.K. Rowling is going to release The Tales of Beedle the Bard. She’s basically milking the cow here. The book is about clues and hints that helped Harry kill Lord Voldemort. That’s cool and all, but does this mean she’s going to write more shit on how shit happened. Like maybe the next book she writes will explain why Dumbledore is gay!

Obama and Sarah Palin in the Same Room For the First Time
This photo shows Barack Obama meeting with 50 U.S. Governors at the Bipartisan meeting of the National Governor’s Association at Congress Hall, today in Philadelphia, Pa. It is the first time Sarah Palin and Barack have been in the same room. It is noted that Palin sat in the very last row in the back of the room. Someone measured the distance and reported that Palin sat the furthest away from Obama than any other Governor in the room. During the meeting, Obama offered economic bailouts for every
