Randy Quaid had a lot of accusations to go around in a new, odd and Nsfw video he posted with his wife, Evi Quaid. The rant was directed at Rupert Murdoch for participating in a conspiracy with News Corp, Warner Bros. and TMZ. In the clip, Quaid said he helped News Corp and Warner Bros. earn "well over a billion dollars" with his roles in Independence Day and Christmas Vacation. He said that in return, Warner Bros. executive Bruce Berman stole his house, the New York Post smears him "to high heaven," and Warner Bros. had he and his wife arrested

In what’s being hailed as a career standout turn, Bradley Cooper stars in the true story of Navy Seal Chris Kyle – family man, one-time rodeo cowboy, and the undisputed most lethal sniper in U.S. history.
Clint Eastwood directs Cooper, Sienna Miller, Jake McDorman, Luke Grimes, Navid Negahban and Keir O’Donnell in the Christmas Day drama adapted by Jason Hall from Kyle’s memoir. Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow premiered the film at AFI Fest on Veterans Day and wrapped a flurry of critics’ kudos into their new second trailer.
This peek better suggests the precarious balance Kyle struggled to keep in his roles as husband, father, and soldier as he served four nightmarish tours of duty in Iraq. Could it nab Cooper his third consecutive Oscar nomination after Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle?

Andrew Davis Returns To Stony Island
By Alex Simon
Director Andrew Davis made his name with hard-hitting action blockbusters like The Fugitive, Under Siege and The Guardian, but like most filmmakers, his first effort was a small film with a modest budget and a lot of heart. Davis’ directing debut Stony Island was shot in 1977, helmed by the then 30 year-old who had made a name for himself as a cinematographer, and conceived as a love letter to the South Chicago neighborhood where he grew up. Based loosely on the story of Davis’ younger brother Richie (starring as a fictionalized version of himself), who grew up as one of the few white kids in a largely African-American neighborhood, Stony Island follows a group of young musicians who try to form an R&B group in their racially-mixed neighborhood. Featuring the film debuts of now-notable names such as Dennis Franz, Susanna Hoffs,...

Alright guys, let’s just say it. Katherine Heigl is an uber babe. Problem is, she is cold as ice, but there is one thing that all her movies have in common. They show you how to get the actress in 90 mins or less. Here are some things to consider - be an asshole, and wait ninety minutes, pretty simple. Oh, and it’s preferable if you’re slightly unshaven with brown hair. I found this great video that looks at her movies like 27 Dresses, The Ugly Truth and Knocked Up and compares the trend of how she eventually hooks up with these guys. Knocked Up is the only interesting one because Rogen did impregnate her first. That being said, Heigl’s latest film, Life as We Know It stars her and Josh Duhamel as two singles whose friends die and they are left to take care of their child Sophie.
