Big Hollywood : BH Interview: Real-Life 'Vow' Couple Prays Audiences Will Commit to Marriage

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 02:20:24 +0000

...seriously? There's a new movie coming out with Rachel McAdams as a girl who can't remember her husband, where the husband keeps trying to remind her of their love anyway? I don't mean to trivialize what the Carpenters went though, because they sound like a pretty amazing couple. I just think this is a strange piece of casting being that we already saw Rachel McAdams do the same thing in The Notebook.

So many people have no idea what it's like to know an addict. A lot of the time, there is absolutely NOTHING you can do to help them. All you can do is mourn them.

I liked John C. Reilly much better when he was Mr. Cellophane...you know, that guy in that one movie whose name you can't quite remember.

I hear a whole lot of people complaining about the poor oppressed gay people...but I never hear any sympathy for the poor oppressed Mormons.

I can't tell if you're joking. It's definitely "to prove THEY'RE all grown up."

I think it's gotten slightly more political recently, but mostly, it's just this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze0cEwsB27A

I'm not a fan of Spike Lee, but I loved when Cosby said it and I'm glad Lee said it too. Cosby's pound cake speech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Gh3_e3mDQ8

He's referencing an interview where she explained how she ended up a pop star.

I always felt bad for Jessica Simpson. She strikes me as an unfortunate, confused young girl who doesn't even realize her father was pimping her out.

Gilda Radner is the only girl I ever felt was even remotely funny on SNL. I still think of the sketch with her and Steve Martin dancing together as probably the best thing SNL ever produced.

Big Hollywood : Stiller's HBO Deal a Blow to Flailing Film Industry

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:28:21 +0000

Ben Stiller used to have a sketch comedy TV show about 20 years ago; I think it's on hulu now. It was overall comparable to SNL, which is to say mostly "meh," but it had occasional moments of brilliance. (Bono's Lucky Clovers commercial, Die Hard 14: Die Hungry, Legends of Springsteen...) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6USCGp9sl8

Pretty much. I posted the music video below. You can definitely see Andy Kaufman in it, and if you listen closely to the lyrics, you can hear all kinds of references to him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hKSYgOGtos

That would probably be my favorite Ahnuld Schweizenheimer movie were it not for that annoying kid.

Big Hollywood : Class Act: Mark Wahlberg Opens Up About His Catholic Faith

SNL once did a series of not-very-funny segments on Mark Wahlberg talking to animals. Mark Wahlberg later went on the show and did this: http://www.hulu.com/watch/39813/saturday-night-li... Class act, that Wahlberg.

I always have difficulty reconciling the old Marky Mark and the new Marky Mark. Because yes, he did some really awful things before he started rapping about how drugs are bad.

Big Hollywood : Weinstein's Publicity Stunt of a Film Loses its Star Attraction

Fri, 6 Jan 2012 10:31:10 +0000

I have to have at least a little bit of respect for a woman who in every paparazzi photo is in sweatpants at the park with her kids. She may not have good judgment when it comes to politics, but she seems pretty inoffensive other than that.

Big Hollywood : Mark Ruffalo Aligns Avengers with Occupy Movement

Thu, 5 Jan 2012 10:52:32 +0000

I'm not a fan of everything Joss Wheadon has ever done, but I did love Buffy and Dr. Horrible. I hope as much as you do that this movie will turn out okay (because let's face it...we'll watch it anyway).

I don't care about Mark Ruffalo's political leanings...but that movie still looks like a disaster waiting to happen.

Big Hollywood : Wanna Meet Liam Neeson? Check Out eBay

Liam Neeson deserves better than a publicity stunt like this, but it's still nice that he's doing it for charity.
