Kevin Fitzpatrick — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 03:54:31 +0000

It had been a good long while since we'd heard anything about the development of HBO's Michael Chabon-scripted, Darren Aronofsky-directed pilot 'Hobgoblin,' so much so that we'd nearly forgotten about the World War II period illusionist drama, which has been described as "'Inglorious Basterds' with magic." Now, HBO is said to have officially passed on shooting a pilot, with Aronofsky departing as well, though FX may give the series a chance.

'Dumb and Dumber 2′ Saved by Universal

Britt Hayes — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 01:00:21 +0000

Warner Bros. made a pretty dumb (or was it smart?) move to dump the Farrelly Brothers’ ‘Dumb and Dumber To,’ but Universal has swept in to rescue the sequel from production limbo. Writing and directing duo Bobby and Peter Farrelly took to Twitter today to announce that Universal and Red Granite Pictures (the latter of [...]

'Anger Management' Update: Selma Blair Out after Charlie Sheen Threatens to Quit

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:30:17 +0000

We thought 'Anger Management' would breeze through its impressive 100-episode order without too many "Tiger blood"-type incidents, but it seems yesterday's breaking Selma Blair news may prove a major roadblock after all. Series lead Charlie Sheen reportedly threatened FX executives to abandon the series outright if co-star Selma Blair is allowed to keep her role on the sitcom, and that has led to Blair being let go.

'The Lego Movie' Trailer: Chris Pratt Leads a Great Assembly of Talent

Damon Houx — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:02:58 +0000

The best thing and the worst about making 'The Lego Movie' is that there's never really been much of a narrative to Lego toys. You put them together, that's it. So the film could be about anything. And from the trailer, directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller ('21 Jump Street') have fun with that freedom as we see the crossover of Lego toys from all different franchises assembled... for something.

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 22:13:39 +0000

In spite of their increasing pedigree, we haven't paid much attention to Cinemax's original series, but the latest additions to the pay cable network's upcoming drama series 'Quarry' have proven far too tempting to ignore. 'Die Hard' franchise star and 'Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World' babe Mary Elizabeth Winstead has joined Cinemax's 'Quarry' in her first regular TV role since rising to fame, joining 'The Avengers' and 'Thor' star Stellan Skarsgard, among others.

Drew Weisholtz — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:42:08 +0000

This car was purring like a kitten. A three-week-old kitten somehow survived a 1,000-mile trip over two days inside a car engine. The driver of the Honda Fit heard the animal before leaving Oregon, but failed to locate it. When she again heard the cat the next day while in Santa Barbara, California, she decided [...]

Yesterday, the joyous parade of 'Community' creator Dan Harmon's season 5 return came to a screeching halt as word broke of the writer's harsh and controversial words regarding his reception of the NBC comedy's fourth season.
