At a screening of The Great Gatsby in NYC on Tuesday night, noted slut whore Gerard Butler was seen talking to de-winged Victoria’s Secret angel and Orlando Bloom’s wife Miranda Kerr for a few minutes. When photographers took pictures of Gerard and Miranda sharing words with each other, he asked them to kindly delete the pictures or he’d screw every single one of their husbands or wives and when they look down at the freshly bloomed genital wart on their husbands or wives’ crotch, they’ll think of him!
Page Six says that Gerard must’ve known one of the photographers on a friendly level, because when he asked the dude to erase the pictures, they “high-fived and bro-hugged.” The source also says that Miranda was SMILING while talking to Gerard for 20 minutes.
What does it all mean?!!!!!!!!!!?!!!!!
Whatever, can’t a married woman smile while talking to a certified slut for 20 minutes without a bunch of nosy hos thinking that something (read: his dick) is up? Yeah, no, not when it’s Gerard Butler we’re talking about. Something is always up when he’s talking to a chick. I bet that in those 20 minutes, they boned 3 different ways, cuddled, shared a cigarette and boned 2 other different ways without anybody noticing. The Butler is that smooth. The Butler is that stealth.
And you know when Gerard Butler and that photog “bro-hugged”? Yeah, his dick did the reach-under anal move. He’s that good.
Alfred Hitchcock may have been, as the folks behind HBO’s upcoming Tippi Hedren telefilm The Girl allege, “a monster,” but he was also a cinematic genius, a visionary storyteller, an indelible presence on the pop culture landscape, and, perhaps, a ham. (His words — see below.) So today, on what would’ve been his 113th birthday, how do you best remember Hitch?
My first Hitchcock was the newly-anointed Sight & Sound greatest film of all time, 1958’s Vertigo, and to this day it’s the one that’s endured most vividly for me through the years. Childhood trips to Muir Woods always seemed haunted by Scottie and Madeleine’s forested exchange (Big Basin subbed in for the actual location); visits to Fort Point, where Madeleine jumps into the icy San Francisco Bay right below the Golden Gate Bridge, made the film come alive during a formative time in my life.
Watching Vertigo as a child decades after Hitchcock had made it, I had my first inkling of the magnitude of time — of the past, the present, and how connected a person can be to people, stories, ideas from long ago.
I faintly recall my subsequent Hitchcocks being Rope, and then North by Northwest, the byproduct of living in a household in which AMC was on all the time, back when AMC was more like TCM. Cameo-spotting became a fun watch-along game, as it is for any Hitch enthusiast (my favorite is still Hitchcock walking two little dogs in The Birds), highlighting his humor and hubris in equal measure.
While it’s been kicking around the internet for a while, this classic episode of the popular 1950s celebrity spectacle What’s My Line? reminds me of that very spirit — cheeky, intelligent,…
Full Story »Well. Orchestrating a luminous, fiery 2012 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony celebration that somehow managed to combine film, music, live theater, dance, the Beatles, a giant baby, flying men on freaking jetpacks, Mr. Bean, James Bond AND The Queen, Danny Boyle set the world abuzz with his tribute to British culture. While Olympics-watchers process the epic Brit-centric extravaganza, we’ve got good looks at 9 beautifully bizarre moments from the Opening Ceremony. Dive right in to Movieline’s Olympics gallery and revel in the Boyletastic theatrics. Your move, Brazil ‘16.
Maybe I missed the memo and someone out there can explain why so many of the random English cultural icons in Boyle’s uber-British, at times verging on Gaga-esque mad dance party are words that begin with the letter B? Beatles, Bond, Bowie, (Mr.) Bean, that terrifying baby, the bubble people, Beckham … on a boat!
1. James Bond and The Queen
Her form is impeccable.
2. David Beckham
“He’s on a boat (I’m on a boat)…” etc., etc.
3. David Bowie
A nice segue into the “Starman” segment, and perhaps a visual approximation of what Danny Boyle was thinking at this very moment.
4. Mr. Bean
Instagram waits for no man.
5. That Giant Baby
Homage to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for sick children, or preview of tonight’s nightmare visions?
6. Winged Bicyclists
Great new Olympic sport idea, or best new Olympic sport idea?
7. He Who Shall Not Be Named
If he wasn’t terrifying before, kids…
8. Flying Mary Poppinses!
Shout out to Bert, over in the corner sweeping the world’s largest chimney tidying up after the molten Industrial Revolution rings.
9. FREAKING. JET. PACKS.
ENGLAND IS THE FUTURE.

Roughly two weeks after Gary Ross’s departure from and Francis Lawrence’s rumored attachment to Catching Fire, Lionsgate has officially announced Lawrence as its man to direct its mega-anticipated Hunger Games sequel.
“From the very beginning of this brilliant trilogy’s journey from page to screen, our first priority has been to stay true to the heart and soul of Suzanne Collins’ powerful stories,” producer Nina Jacobson said in a statement just over the transom at Movieline HQ. “From my first conversation with Francis, I knew he would make a great partner for both me and Suzanne. His passion for Catching Fire and inspired ideas for a faithful adaptation make him the perfect director for this movie. I know this will be a wonderful collaboration and I cannot wait to get started.”
Added Lawrence: “It is truly an honor and a privilege to bring Catching Fire, the second chapter of Suzanne’s beloved trilogy, to the big screen. I fell in love with the characters, the themes and the world she created and this chapter opens all of these elements up in such a thrilling, emotional and surprising way. I can’t wait to dive right into it and bring this chapter to life along with the truly superb cast and filmmakers involved.”
Mazel tov! And get to work: Catching Fire opens November 22, 2013.

There’s not a lot that looks like it might be able to stop Terrence Jones and the Kentucky Wildcats in their march toward an NCAA men’s basketball title. But one person at least found a way to slow Jones down &— and she calls herself a fan.
Actress and noted Kentucky fan Ashley Judd apparently found her way into the ‘Cats locker room on Saturday following the team’s victory over Iowa State. Following some routine congratulations and best wishes for the team’s upcoming trip to the Sweet 16, Judd departed… with Jones’s phone. The forward announced the mishap on Twitter:
If your trying to reach me on my phone you cant because @AshleyJudd took my phone to e town
— Terrence Jones (@TerrenceJones1) March 18, 2012
Soon afterward, Judd handed the phone off to a mutual contact in Elizabethtown with a note of apology, which Jones also tweeted:
Look what I got thank u @AshleyJudd twitter.com/TerrenceJones1…
— Terrence Jones (@TerrenceJones1) March 18, 2012
“Catlanta”! Adorable. Anyway, watch your phone around Ashley Judd, OK?

Mark your calendars for May 20! Or not: “Chronicling the lives of Dina Eastwood, the wife of Oscar-winning film legend Clint Eastwood, and their daughters Francesca (18) and Morgan (15), and the all-male six member vocal group from South Africa managed by Dina, ‘Overtone,’ Mrs. Eastwood & Company is an unprecedented look at the surprisingly normal extended and blended family behind one of Hollywood’s most iconic superstars. This series invites viewers to witness their lives and proves that familial bonds are shaped by more than DNA.” [E!]

Well, here’s one way to get your picture in The Daily Mail. Marc Jacobs left Louis Vuitton – Marc Jacobs: The Exhibition in Paris last night with leather daddy Peter Marino and bitch looked like if Sweet Valley High crashed into a drag queen’s Thanksgiving party. This is what it would look like if there was a J.Crew, a Liberace boutique and a Plymouth (Crack) Rock shop on the Mayflower and I don’t like it. Sometimes you just have to look in the mirror and ask yourself, “Do I look like a second grade girl circa 1981 who totally half-assed it for the Thanksgiving pageant?” If the answer is yes, have a seat on one of the orange plastic chairs until your legal guardian shows up to take your busted ass home.
That being said, if Suri Cruise wore this mess, I’d probably declare it the greatest outfit of our time.
Posh Beckham is the sleepiest zombie in the graveyard, but she still had enough energy to pull herself out of her crypt to party with Eva Longoria and Kate Beckinsale at a Vanity Fair party in L.A. last night. Last week Posh was grabbing Becks’ balls through the power of the optical illusion, this week she’s grabbing on Eva’s titty balls and let’s hope that next week she’s grabbing on a pair of meat balls from Ikea. That sinister “nibbling on the fat-free parts of your soul” smirk is scaring/scarring me! Posh looks like Mr. Burns dragging it up in disguise as a Pan Am flight attendant so that he can join the zombie mile high club by eating brains in the lavatory.
You know how at the end of the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland you face a mirror that shows ghosts and ghouls sitting on your head and shit? That’s what this looks like. Although, Eva Longoria is too busy flirting with the camera to know that she’s wearing a cold zombie hand bra.
That said, I’d rather see Posh’s zombie hands over Eva’s chesticles than the shit she’s wearing. That dress is a world of NO on Eva. If my free clinic therapist held up one of these pictures of Eva and asked me what I see in her titty area, I’d say I see two side shadowy profiles of the triangle bird from Angry Birds and a whole lot of desperation. Eva just doesn’t have the demure grace of Courtney Stodden and Anne V to pull off a dress of elegance like this.
James Franco. Hank Azaria. David Cross. Ron Livingston. It’s a broad range of actors who’ve been enlisted previously to play Beat icon Allen Ginsberg, none of them quite delivering the poet’s intellect and spirit opposite the, er, best minds of his generation. Now comes the news that Daniel Radcliffe will take a shot of his own at Ginsberg in director John Krokidas’s Kill Your Darlings.
THR today followed up on news originally hinted at by MTV, confirming that the actor — who’s first post-Harry Potter role in The Woman in Black finally surfaces in theaters next month — will star opposite Elizabeth Olsen, Dane DeHaan and Jack Huston. Set in 1944, it revolves around a murder that “draws together the great poets of the beat generation: Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs.”
Radcliffe originally hesitated to commit to the project, but is enthusiastic enough. “It’s one of the things that’s on the table absolutely,” he told MTV. “It would be amazing and I’m very, very enthused for that script and that young director. It’s an independent film, it’s welcome to the world of independent film — from one day to the next it could happen or not happen. Until I’m there on the set, I’m not going to say anything about it.”
Too late! And here I thought Radcliffe would never wear glasses for a role again. Look for KYD in theaters in 2013, meaning a possible fall 2012 festival run. Developing…

A day after collapsing at Sundance — prompting his swift hospitalization and his publicist’s even swifter refutation of alcohol and drug speculation — Tracy Morgan has just tweeted that he’s recovering nicely. It was just that, well… Here, he can explain.
For the record, “kryptonite” is clearly a euphemism for Melissa Leo, with whom Morgan was photographed (above, with screenwriter Ron Nyswaner) at a Creative Coalition event shortly before his incident. Must… retrieve… inhaler…
