Prince Shia LaBeouf to Lay Waste to Elders, Minorities and the Poor at the Box Office
2:05AM STV | Welcome back to Defamer Attractions, your indispensable guide to what’s new, noteworthy and/or totally doomed this week at the movies. Today we welcome Shia LaBeouf and his million-dollar pinkie back to theatres alongside Spike Lee, Richard Gere, Diane Lane, Charlize Theron and Kirk Cameron (!), while facing a robust litter of potential arthouse underdogs and DVD release for the agoraphobes among us. As always, our opinions are our own, but if Josh Groban can steadfastly see it our way, shouldn’t you as well? More »
Is Nicholas Sparks The New Nora Ephron?
9:15AM Defamer Hollywood | As we eagerly await this weekend’s Nights in Rodanthe to see if Richard Gere and Diane Lane can continue to make old-people sex as hot as it was in Unfaithful, we got to thinking — Nicholas Sparks is a total baller. Sparks, who writes the standard romance novel fare that stocks airport bookstores, wrote Rodanthe and has successfully pandered his schlock to production companies who have turned a number of his books into best-selling films. The Notebook, arguably the biggest success of the adaptations, quickly became that movie girlfriends forced their boyfriends to watch in the hopes of emulating real-life lovebirds Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. But now comes the recent news that Sparks is no longer satisfied with hipster newcomers and wants to hit the big time, so he’s selling out and writing both a novel and a screenplay adaptation for a new film which are specifically designated for queen Miley Cyrus herself. Sparks is a smart cookie and he knows women love his shit. So is he the next Nora Ephron? More »

Imagining The Top Five Films In Eliot Spitzer’s Netflix Queue
5:19AM Molly Friedman | In case you hadn’t heard, recently resigned NY governor Eliot Spitzer likes call girls. A lot. And while we’re still busy casting the inevitable movie of the week, our slideshow-obsessed friends over at Us dove into their archives to reminisce on the hooker-laced pasts of Hugh Grant, Eddie Murphy and escort king Charlie Sheen, who’ve all been caught with their pants (and dignities) down. But call girls don’t always come in the form of silicone sketchballs straight out of the Bada Bing. Sometimes they have hearts of gold and charisma as thick as the air on the 101! If they’re played by stars, that is. We dove into our own archives and selected our top five films that revolve around the World’s Oldest Profession, flicks that will surely be making their way onto Eliot Spitzer’s Netflix queue in no time.
