 Poor scared Harry. ?He's a good actor scared to death of real work. Why? ?He used to challenge himself here and there (see Masquito Coast), take a interesting role that would break the bullshit paychecks up a little. ?But not anymore (well, there are rumors of a few possible projects out there, but none that would jumpstart his street cred). ?Here's a compilation of roles in which something is wrong with Harrison's wife. ? Click on to enjoy.

 The more the flood us with clips, featurettes, TV spots, internet only trailers, international trailers, and sneak peak teasers the more we realize that's its all just advertising damnit. ?Sure we want to see more, have more, get a taste of the hotness, but in the end, what will totally satisfy the geek hunger? ?Love? ?Meaning? ?Michael Bay getting beaten up on live television? ?Peter Jackson starting principal photography on The Hobbit? ?You answer. ? In the meantime, click on for MI-3, Scary Movie 4, Betty Page, and other clips and advanced media.

 Apparently Steven Spielberg loves American Idol. ?Now he and Mark Burnett (Prod. Survivor, Apprentice) have put together an American Idol-like show (called, On The Lot) for filmmakers at Fox and a pilot is already scheduled to shoot. ?The model for the show is more like American Idol and less like Project Greenlight (contestants are pitted against each other each week and are voted on by the public). ?The prize; a meeting with Stevie and a first-look deal at Dreamworks.

 Yep. ?Fox is slowly starting to churn the wheels of the machine that will produce the ad and media blitz that is surely to come for X-Men 3: The Last Stand. ?While the lead-up to this flick's opening has been awash in periods of angry geek fever, now it seems the seas are calming maybe just a little. ? Dig the new TV spots.

 Remember the Star Wars kid? That stocky little kid whose basement light saber fight fantasy video was put online by friends (bullies in his school, actually), whose video went on to become an internet (and cultural) legend. Well, the kid is graduating high school now, he's lost weight, and the bullies are still fucking with him. Click on to read more.

 Poor Sharon Stone. Poor freaky-looking, botoxified Sharon Stone's body. Her last ditch chance at her favorite dead horse (see also Basic Instinct 2) opened over the weekend and man did it bomb. Of the top ten flicks, BI2 came in...10th (actually, it tied for 10th). In other news, Ice Age 2 earned a record $70 fucking million dollars in its first weekend out. Click over for the numbers.

 Aintitcool received a high quality image of Toby Maguire in the black spidey suit which has supposedly come from the set of Spider-Man 3 (it has been shooting since January and opens in summer '07). ?Teaser posters have appeared online showing Spidey in the serious suit, but this is the first image of Tobey in character. ? The image looks good, too good for an extra on-set. ?Check it out.

 Between now and next year when this giant titanic of a popcorn kiddie-geek eighties fantasy comes true and arrives in theatres, the geek criticism is sure to be particularly geeky and cutting (Michael Bay is directing for after all). ?Casting is rumored to have begun and the first body attached is...Shia LaBeouf (the kid from Holes, Charlie's Angels 2, I Robot).

 It's a weird thing whe a show that no longer airs is being held hostage by the network (Fox) that has decided to no longer air it. ?Fox has been dragging it's feet to release Arrested Development and allow it to be picked up by another net (Showtime). ?In the meantime, Mitch Hurwitz has be debating whether to continue on with the show. ?Now he's made up his mind.

 Supposedly sparked by another idea that struck director Steven Soderbergh, Ocean's 13 is on. The entire cast is rumored to be coming back for another go-round and shooting is scheduled to begin in July on soundstages in Hollywood (versus all over Europe for Ocean's 12). Lets hope is a better script than the second film.

 Yep. ?Must Love Jaws. ?Trailer and footage mashing is the new black (well, has been the new black, for a while now). ?Is it a way of fighting back against the spin-soaked, mediated global commercial culture we find our minds living in these days? ?You decide. ?Dig Jaws turned into a movie about two men who discover a love of sharks ?(not as good as Brokeback to the Future, but decent enough). ?Mash on.

  A few monhs ago it was titled Flight 93, then Lifetime or another soft-serve network like that aired a tele-movie with the same title. Flight 93 is now United 93. Directed by the capable (and lover of the handheld camera) Paul Greengrass (who recently agreed to shoot anoother Bourne flick) and starring a cast you've never seen before, dig the full trailer.
