Three Hour Tour

I don't watch Criminal Minds, but I did read that Shemar Moore was in Cannes this week hanging out on a boat during the show's hiatus.

It looks like tonight's Glee has a little body-switching fun. Check out the preview below to see more...

Darren Criss certainly can rock a mohawk.

President Obama's support of gay marriage announcement last week has sparked quite a lot of debate and some very vibrant magazine covers lately on Newsweek and The New Yorker (fyi...he's obviously not gay, for those who only read things literally).

A splash of color really does make all the difference, doesn't it?

Tom Cruise appears as his Rock of Ages persona on the cover of W Magazine.

He should watch out.

Wild Things

590_am_sendak_about-1

Very sad news today...

Maurice Sendak, author of the classic children's book "Where the Wild Things Are," has died, a spokeswoman for HarperCollins Publishers said Tuesday. He was 83.


Sendak illustrated nearly 100 books during a 60-year career, winning dozens of accolades as he endeared himself to generations of children reared on his fanciful stories. One critic called him "the Picasso of children's literature."

Although I thought the movie was very slow, it certainly did an amazing job of creating the world where the Wild Things existed.

And, if you really want to experience the weird world of the Wild Things...you need listen no further than Christopher Walken reading (and randomly commenting along the way) the book.





"He chases a dog....with a fork. I don't really think he's gonna eat it. Kids are jerks, anyway."


Hilarious.

Marvel-ous

Photobucket

The Avengers movie made just a little money this weekend...

Marvel’s The Avengers is on pace to put the Disney film’s 3-day record-breaking opening weekend’s domestic cume about $205M and its global total near $650M.

Here are just a few records it broke:

    Biggest domestic opening weekend of all time.


    Fastest film to reach $200M (3 days).


    Highest Saturday of all time: $69.7 M.


    Passed international box office totals of Captain America
    ($192M), Iron Man ($266.7M), Thor ($268.3M), and Iron
    Man 2 ($311.5M) in 12 Days of release.


    Highest grossing opening weekend in IMAX's history.

Not too shabby.

Oh, and very few people were aware that Ellen was in the movie as well...




I think "The Rambler" really is a nice addition to the cast.

I hope she gets her own spin-off soon.

Super Friday

The Avengers opens today...exciting!

It's already made over $300 million internationally (it opened earlier overseas) and I can't wait to see it!

Marvel’s The Avengers from Disney could close in on $160M when it opens in North America this weekend and $425M when it debuts in Russia and China for a possible total near $585M through Sunday. Even very conservative estimates put the worldwide total at $500M through Sunday when Joss Whedon’s actioner will be open in every movie territory except Japan.

Also, the new trailer for The Amazing Spiderman was released this week as well.



It's looking pretty good too.

I love me some superhero movies!

I'd like to thank Crayola

the-scream-edvard-munch-apjpg-ede55a4033531bb6

I really should have kept my early pre-school drawings...

Edvard Munch's 1895 crayon drawing "The Scream" sold for $119.9 million Wednesday night, making it the most expensive artwork ever sold at auction. The auction, conducted by Sotheby's New York, lasted twelve minutes. 


The previous record-holding work was a 1932 Pablo Picasso painting called "Nude, Green, Leaves, and Bust," which sold in 2010 for $106.5 million.

 That is usually the face I make when I look at my bank account balance.

Eli_Roth_s_Goretorium

Perhaps this is just another sign that the end of the world really is near...

The man who brought the tourism horror of Hostel to the big screen is bringing a whole new type of fright to Sin City. Eli Roth’s Goretorium haunted house is scheduled to open on September 27 in Las Vegas, right in time for Halloween. 


Nothing says "Enjoy your vacation!" like watching a loved one getting their tendons cut while strapped to a chair or having their face ripped off by a bear trap.


Please...make it stop.
