Please do not be cynical
All I ask is one thing, and I’m asking this particularly of young people that watch. Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism, for the record, it’s my least favorite quality. It doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard, and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. Excellent advice by Conan...

When the Conan-Leno debacle began, two things were certain: One, it would change the face of late night, and two, someone would apply it to the Downfall Hitler meme. When Oliver Hirschbiegel staged the famous bunker scene in his 2004 movie, with Bruno Ganz as Hitler, he wasn’t expecting it to be appropriated for comedy; a dramatic recreation of Hitler’s last stand is not exactly a...

Remember that giant scoop I told you (via Twitter) I had gotten at the Golden Globes? This is it: Neil Patrick Harris is nearing a deal to appear in the May sweeps Glee episode that’s being helmed by his Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog director, Joss Whedon. In retrospect, maybe I should’ve called this particular scoop “ginormous.” I think it’s warranted, don’t you? Anyway, Harris wants to do...

II. JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! 1:00 AM ET: Jimmy Kimmel opened his live show tonight as Leno and performed a full monologue in the former (and future?) Tonight Show host’s style. Complete with a grey wig and prosthetic chin—even a makeshift Kevin Eubanks in band leader Cleto Escobedo—Kimmel decimated Leno with every passing second. Here’s a few minutes of the hilarious—and hilariously...
Fantastic Mr. Fox Acceptance Speech
At the National Board of Review NYC fete this week, Wes Anderson staged a novel acceptance speech, Fantastic Mr. Fox style. via blogs.indiewire.com The momentum behind “Fantastic Mr Fox” seems to be gaining.

"Shorter and funnier – please!"
So here’s my advice to most directors out there, who are sitting in editing rooms trying to get their movies ready for the public: Give us all a break. No matter how much of a genius you are, your movie would be better if it was 10 minutes shorter. Maybe more. And funnier. Definitely. Make it funnier. via hollywoodandfine.com Posted via web from Freedom to...

He’s also the only one under the age of 35, and the only one who truly seems to get the social media world. I’m not just saying that because Jason Reitman, director of Up in the Air, interacts with fans...
