Melrose Place: The Long Wait Continues

post from Gawker: Defamer on 04 November 2009 03:49:04 PM. © Gawker: Defamer

Only two more weeks before Heather Locklear returns to save us from this dreadful show. As always, we have some predictions on how it might work.

We looked into our Melrose Place Crystal Ball (patent pending) and saw the future of the show. Here it goes:

Violent is the killer and she kills Auggie, because they're both off the show. We didn't even need our crystal ball for that one.
Lauren is going to get caught being a giant hooker and Ella is going to have to save her. She's going to have to choose between helping out her roommate and boning Jonah, and she will choose to save Lauren, and then will hire both her and cash-strapped Jonah for a three way. But then she will dump Jonah for the hot doctor played by Nick Zano. They will have an on-again-off again relationship until they fake their deaths and run off together again, because she is the new Amanda and he will be the new Peter. Lauren is the new Jo, so she will be boring until her contract is up and she leaves the show.
Riley and Jonah will break up, of course, and they will continue to make really bad dating decisions, but will still live in the same apartment building and will enable each other's bad choices. They are the new Billy and Allison. That means that Riley will hate Ella for taking Jonah and will get a job at the PR firm to make her life hell. PR is pretty much exactly like teaching first grade, so she will be great.
David will not go to jail for being a horrible thief and even worse bloody knife hider, but he will live in a halfway house right next door to Michael Mancini. He will cut his hedges over the fence everyday until Michael realizes that he loves his kid. He will bring cookies to the halfway house and they will stay up late looking at old pictures and sharing stories about how great his mother is. Then David will suddenly turn violently ill and die. Michael poisoned him, because he does not enjoy the tingling sensation of love.
The steam will float of the pool like fog off a primordial bog as the tiles of the patio start to shiver like orphans left out in the cold. As the building quakes, the balcony is the first thing to go, caving in on the courtyard, crushing Violent and Auggie, their limbs splayed about like spilled Twizzlers. An inhuman cry tears through the eardrums of all that remain, sending blood down their heads, and they grab their ears, stumbling about trying to keep from falling to their knees as they look up in horror at a sight that is giant, green, and massive: Dinosaur Amanda!

JJ Abrams to Dose Us With 500 Rads

post from /Film on 04 November 2009 03:45:45 PM. © /Film

With their now expected levels of secrecy and sneakiness, it seems that JJ Abrams and Bad Robot are already deep into bringing a mysterious movie called 500 Rads to the screen. At least that's if it will be called 500 Rads and this isn't just some kind of hazy-fantazy codename.The leaked information so far pegs the film at a sweet little $25 million budget and alleges that production will take place in Europe. The story was apparently formulated by Abrams who handed it off to Jeff Pinkner to write the screenplay, and now it seems that some other scribes from the Bad Robot mafia will be taking a pass too while Pinker gets busy at the Fringe again.Seeing as their source has told them to expect 500 Rads to fall in the vein of both Cloverfield and 28 Days Later, and because they've researched enough to find out that Rads ...

New Sherlock Holmes trailer online

post from Filmstalker on 04 November 2009 03:44:47 PM. © Filmstalker

Sherlock Holmes has arrived with another new trailer, I'm starting to wonder just how many cuts there are of this trailer, because here we are again with more similar footage and more new clips. I wonder if we're going to keep seeing new cuts while new footage is completed. Sherlock Holmes is Guy Ritchie's attempt to revisit the classic character with the original writing of Arthur Conan Doyle in mind, and it stars Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law as Holmes and Watson respectively....Visit Filmstalker for the full story.

Salt Movie Trailer: Angelina Jolie Goes on the
Run

post from /Film on 04 November 2009 03:40:18 PM. © /Film

Update: An official domestic teaser trailer has been released online, and is now embedded after the jump. The original story follows.We've seen a few photos of Angelina Jolie in character for her lead role in Salt, the political action thriller that was rewritten for the actress when Tom Cruise bailed on the role. Now there's an international trailer, straight from Russia. First thought: man, they really do some great lip-matching work when dubbing movies over there! Check the Russian trailer after the jump.Yeah, so this trailer is entirely in Russian, a language that keeps me at bay in the same way that an Insane Clown Posse shirt wards off attractive women, so I can't do much to recap what's going on here. It looks like a slick thriller -- more in the vein of the older Jack Ryan movies than Bourne-influenced shaky-cam stuff, and I'm fine with that. And really, ...

Robert Zemeckis recently said that the script for ROGER RABBIT 2 is currently being developed by the same screenwriters of the first movie, Jeffrey Price and Peter Seaman.

Upcoming 3D Version of the Arabian Nights Makes
Prince of Persia Sound Culturally Reverent

post from /Film on 04 November 2009 03:22:15 PM. © /Film

There have been many filmed versions of the collection of folk stories and other tales called the One Thousand and One Nights, better known in the US as the Arabian Nights. Now we can add one more to the pile.Who's directing? That would be Chuck Russell, a man whose films span a broad range of quality: A Nightmare on Elm Street 3 (fairly awesome), The Blob remake (great stuff), The Mask (starting to worry) and The Scorpion King (uh-oh). Where's this Arabian Nights going to fall on his best to worst list?Variety reports that Russell has co-written the picture with Barry P. Ambrose. Budgeted at $70m, the film is planned to start next spring. The angle is that the story offers 'a new spin,' which is often code for 'we've slapped familiar names on some stuff we made up over beers.'Indeed, the trade says the film "follows a young commander ...

The Hills: Birthday Party Massacre

post from Gawker: Defamer on 04 November 2009 03:03:54 PM. © Gawker: Defamer

Heidi Montag can't just have any old birthday party, she has to have an extravaganza in her glass coffin and invite all the dueling princesses to come. Drama ensues. But even more exciting than the party is the preparation.

We got a hold of Heidi Montag's shopping list for supplies her big night. You can't imagine the things this girl ordered.

50 clear plastic cups for drinking wine
2 bags of Cool Ranch Doritos that none of the girls will touch but Brody and his cohorts will eventually throw at each other
40 40s, because Spencer and Brody will both be there, and they can do some serious damage
1 cantaloupe, because Stephanie is still on that strange diet and that is all she eats
A tarp to put down in the driveway. That is where Kristin is going to confront Audrina about Justin Bobby, and we don't want any blood on the pavement
2 mops, one for each of the PAs who will have to mop up the blood
Don't worry about picking up daggers, Audrina will bring them and shoot them out of her eyes when Kristin tells her that it must hurt "as a woman" that Justin Bobby said he was never together with her
1 pair of rubber gloves, because I don't want cooties when I have to pick up Kristin's chin from the ground after Audrina tells her that she and Justin have been hanging out.
20 tins of Cesar dog food, because it is the most expensive and someone tells me that I'm getting some puppies for my birthday
A Karnac hat for Spencer, because he's been predicting the future. First he said that Kristin and Audrina would fight if I invited them both to my party, then he said that our kids would turn out all fucked-up. He's amazing
Nametags, because Spencer has a friend Spencer and that is just confusing. Also, are was supposed to call Stacie "the bartender" or "Kristin's Friend?" And why are we still calling Justin Bobby "Audrina's Ex-boyfriend" when he's supposedly dating Kristin
1 athletic cup for Justin Bobby, because Kristin is pissed and coming for his nuts
Estrogen for Jayde, even though she's not around, she needs her hormones, and I have a feeling we're going to be seeing her again soon. Spencer told me, and he is like a deck of Tarot cards with blond hair
Airplane glue for when Enzo comes over. He and Spencer just love making models together. They are so cute
1 large cage, because if my drunk sister Holly shows up at my party (which she is not invited to!) we are keeping her away from the booze
Streamers!
1 whip to go with Justin Bobby's Indiana Jones hat
A Justin Bobby to English dictionary so that we will all know what "What's wrong with you. Slow it down. Cruise," means
Some Common Sense Shampoo, so that Audrina and Kristin will wash Justin Bobby right out of their hair. First he told Kristin he was never with Audrina, then told Audrina he was never with Kristin and they both fall for that trick. Oh, that reminds me
New tricks for Justin Bobby, who treats every girl badly in exactly the same way
3 pregnancy tests to find out whether the "replace my birth control pills with PEZ and hope Spencer doesn't notice" trick worked
12 DiGiorno pizzas for the cameramen, because they get so hungry and light me badly when they're hungry
