  • Jack Supports Hill | Today's Top Videos | 3/3/2008
    At first we thought there was no way this video was legit and that some YouTuber with too much downtime pieced it all together. But after watching a montage of various movie clips of Jack Nicholson (including Batman, The Shining, and A Few Good Men), the video transitions to a shot of Jack himself approving the message that Hillary is our girl. Will Jack’s endorsement be enough to give her the edge she needs? We’ll have a few more answers come early Wednesday morning after Ohio and Texas cast their ballots on Tuesday! But, of course, we can’t resist the response video that popped up shortly after:Your take: Which video do you think was pieced together better? read more
  • Heath Ledger: Olsen Twin Called Before 911; Plus, Jack Nicholson's Warning | Today's News: Our Take | 1/24/2008
    As police await toxicology reports that could shed light on Heath Ledger's cause of death in a way the autopsy report couldn't, new details have surfaced on how Weeds' star Mary-Kate Olsen figures into this tragic tale. As detailed in a timeline released by the NYPD, the masseuse who discovered Ledger's lifeless body first speed-dialed Olsen, a friend of Ledger's, because the employee "knows that when something goes bad, you call insiders first to see how to handle things," a source tells the New York Daily News.As Olsen dispatched her security team to Ledger's residence, the masseuse tried to rouse the actor. When she couldn't, she phoned Olsen back to say she was alerting 911.As previously reported, no illegal drugs were found on the premises, and a rolled-up $20 bill discovered near Ledger's body tested clean of drug residue. Six prescription medications recovered from the scene included pills to treat insomnia and anxiety, and an antihistamine.Elsewhere, Jack Nicholson —... read more
  • Rapid-fire Remakes, Deceptive Marketing, Unusual Musicals and More Answers | Ask FlickChick | 5/16/2007
    Send your movie questions to FlickChick. Question: I'm a great fan of your column — I read it religiously every time it comes out. Here's my question: I've never been all that interested in musicals (I don't dislike them on principle, I just never felt very attracted to them), but recently I caught up with Jacques Demy's The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and it completely knocked my socks off. It absolutely blew me away, so much so that I'm ready to call it one of my favorite movies of all time. I was completely hooked on its unusual format: Every single line is sung and there are no big "numbers" like in regular musicals. It made the entire movie feel like one long, beautiful hymn. Is there any other movie that has used this same format? Or, more importantly, is there any other movie that has used this format successfully? — Oskar Sigvardsson (all the way from Stockholm, Sweden)FlickChick: This is an excellent question, and one I find especially interesting in that I only... read more
  • A Likable Host for a Long, Low-Key Oscars | Roush Dispatch | 2/26/2007
    The one thing I realized as Oscar night droned on and on for nearly four hours: If I ever had to choose someone to be stranded with for hours on end (say, like those poor Jet Blue passengers a few weeks ago), it would have to be Ellen DeGeneres.Keeping her cool, and her genuine aura of chipper goodwill, throughout three costume changes (in suits from red velvet to all-white to royal blue) and what seemed once again like an overindulgent excess of movie montages (we definitely could have done without Michael Mann’s fuzzy survey of cinematic American history), Ellen was welcome nearly every time she popped up. Offering a spec script to Martin Scorsese, directing Steven Spielberg on how to take her photo with Clint Eastwood, asking the megastars in the front row to lift their legs as she vacuumed the Kodak past midnight (ET), while informing us that Helen Mirren had just asked for a rum and coke (sounded pretty good to me at the time), Ellen did her darndest to deflate the bloat... read more
