Everything You’ve Ever Loved To Get Remade And Ruined
12:21AM Richard Lawson | Officially out of ideas, Hollywood continues to mine the recent past for any bit of something worth reviving. Movies that you and I both loved once. Plays that the English loved many centuries ago. More »
Jack Nicholson, Warren Beatty Implicated in A-List SAG Strike Warm-Up
7:41AM STV | Just when we thought nothing much had changed in the narcoleptic parallel universe of SAG contract negotiations, we’re hearing now that the union’s saber-rattlers are finally bringing the heavy weaponry to bear on their studio nemeses: A recent dinner hosting Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep, Warren Beatty and other influential legends reportedly gave the blessing for a crippling actor’s strike.

Moviefone Poll Suggests Voters Want Nation Run By Fictional Idiot Presidents
10:40AM Kyle Buchanan | Hollywood has done its fair share of preaching to the political electorate this season, so Moviefone polled 1.1 million of its users to return the favour by electing their favourite screen presidents. They rose to the occasion by selecting Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman, and several tremendous idiots. The list, after the jump: More »
Meet The Two Minds Behind That Creepy Jack Nicholson Spot For Team Hillary
7:56AM Seth | If you haven’t yet seen the bizarre Jack Nicholson ad for the Hillary campaign, well, feast your eyes on the video above, sure to be studied as the ultimate example of celebrity endorsements gone wrong by generations of poli-sci majors enrolled in “Hillary ‘08: Sketches In Failure.” In it, a variety of trademark Nicholson psychopaths mumble vaguely pro-Clinton lines of out-of-context dialogue. (Good thing, too, as the line pulled from A Few Good Men, Gawker point out, is followed by the very un-presidential rumination, “Promote ‘em all, I say, ’cause this is true: if you haven’t gotten a blowjob from a superior officer, well, you’re just letting the best in life pass you by.”) More »
Jack Nicholson Admits That His Golden Starlet-Nailing Era May Be Drawing To A Close
7:06AM Seth | Talking to AARP The Magazine (the #2 periodical for readers over 65, after Kirk Douglas’s Senior Moments), veteran Hollywood horndog Jack Nicholson conceded he may, at the ripe age of 70, have begun to slow down in his legendary panty-chasing ways: More »Heath Ledger – Now A Hero For Batman Nerds As Well As Bumming Cowboys
8:20AM Jess McGuire | The Daily Telegraph has taken a break from speculating about the love life of Heath Ledger (is he dating Gemma Ward? We await official confirmation…) to laud his performance as The Joker in the upcoming installment of the Batman films ‘The Dark Knight’.
The smiling assassin is to overshadow Gotham City’s superhero in the Batman Begins sequel The Dark Knight, according to frenzied fans around the world.
Dripping in smeared red, white and black make-up, the Oscar-nominated star has had chatrooms abuzz with Batman v The Joker banter since the first image of Ledger, hunched in a jail cell, was released.
The speculation intensified late last month when the first trailer for the film, featuring The Joker’s evil cackle, was released in the US, reports film writer Erin McWhirter.
Critics have already began showering the Aussie actor with praise for his portrayal, with some claiming it makes Jack Nicholson’s version from the 1989 Batman movie “look like a clown”.
Oooh, smack down on Jack! Hopefully Mr Nicholson won’t take this insult lying down and will instead choose to send a pack of vicious thugs (perhaps made up of just some of the 9,000 offspring he claimed he potentially could have fathered during his crazy shagging years during the sixties and seventies) to sort out the insolent film critic who gave him such serve.
Heath, turns out you’re our number one guy. More » 
Jack Nicholson Admits To Have Spreading Himself A Little Thin
9:30AM Defamer Hollywood | It’s often in this relative slow-news stretch before the holidays that some of the most astonishing celebrity revelations come to light: Perhaps, with New Year’s resolutions right around the corner, they feel the time is right to relieve themselves of something weighing heavily upon their conscience, such as, say, the 9000 illegitimate children they’ve roughly calculated to have sired throughout their four-decade reign atop Hollywood’s Perennial Bachelor Mountain. One can’t help but wonder what ever became of that shit-grinning, Gucci-tortoiseshell-wearing generation, a diaspora of mini-Jacks and Jills that spreads from the Hills of Hollywood as far as the shores of Mozambique and beyond.

Artist Celebrates The Imagined Moments Of Their Celebrity Lives
6:15AM Defamer Hollywood | Elevating the fun of celebrity lookalikes to the level of coffee-table art, photographer Alison Jackson poses the rent-a-doppelgängers in a wide variety of scandalous and humiliating poses in her book Confidential (examples include “Brad Pitt shaving Angelina Jolie’s legs; a jailed Paris Hilton paying another inmate to scrub her toilet bowl; and a masked Michael Jackson putting lipstick on a crying baby,” reports Page Six). We particularly enjoyed the above image, pulled from the book’s website, imagining Jack Nicholson taking full advantage of his Hurricane Harbour family pass. It’s just the sunny, festive tonic we all could use during these cold days and nights of placard-wielding strife. The uncensored picture can be found at Taschen.com.
