Dear Kate Hudson: Where Did It All Go Wrong?

7:30AM Defamer Hollywood | With My Best Friend’s Girl abysmal box office performance last weekend now behind us, we’ve been pondering the fallout of some of film’s stars. Obviously Jason Biggs is always going to be known as the dude who stuck his peen in an apple pie. And Dane Cook’s MySpace rants have gotten more views than all of his films put together. But Kate Hudson! We had so much hope for you, spawn of Goldie Hawn. Once a flaxen-haired hippie goddess with daisies laced in your hair, your gracefully slept your way to the top of the Stillwater groupies in Almost Famous. And you were almost more endearing than annoying in How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days, which we must admit we occasionally watch on TBS when our plans fall through on a Friday night. We thought you might be on your way to becoming the queen of chick flicks, but now, you’ve taken it too far.

Dane Cook Isn’t Afraid to Steal Another Guy’s Girl – Or His Movie’s Plot

8:15AM STV | We’ve been telling you about The End of Ideas for a while now, but generally in the context where otherwise upstanding individuals knowingly attach their names to remakes, rehashes, reimaginings and revisions whose very existence could threaten even a VMA attendee’s faith in a benevolent God. (His close neighbours are starting to have their doubts, anyway.) But to think that a Dane Cook movie that even he has found reason to second-guess could in fact be a poorly rendered rip-off of a straight-to-video David Boreanaz exercise from a decade ago? Really, now — that’s just unholy. Judge for yourself after the jump as we bring you the special-needs trailer for Cook’s forthcoming My Best Friend’s Girl and its 1997 counterpart for the forgotten rom-com Mr. Fix It. As an added bonus, find a dormant IMDB comment thread parsing the films’ respective plots: “What a rip-off! I predict this movie will never be released…” Alas. More »

Vagina-Like Face Not Among Selling Points of New Film, Argues Dane Cook

7:10AM STV | Lionsgate is reportedly allocating a portion of its new credit line to therapists after Dane Cook, the co-star of the studio’s forthcoming “edgy comedy with a dash of romance” My Best Friend’s Girl, lashed out today at the poor souls responsible for the film’s poster. As if their mission to sell a Dane Cook film wasn’t challenging enough, the actor/comedian assailed everything from the designers’ Photoshop skills to his own hair (”actually a close up shot of Tom Selleck’s Magnum P.I. mustache,” he notes) in a quest for cosmic poster justice. For reasons we’ll explain after the jump, we think he’s being a little hard on the artists. After all, isn’t there a little bit “Brittany Spears’ [sic] vagina” in all of us? More »
