Does anyone here know what Matt Stone's purpose on South Park is now if he doesn't write or direct any of the episodes? It seems like all he does is tack his name onto the SP franchise and voice a couple of characters while Trey Parker does all the work

anyone?

Mining Hollywood’s past and Asia’s present for remake material has become common practice in that wonderful city we call L.A. But usually when we think of “Hollywood’s Past” our brains jump immediately into the 70’s and 80’s. Not those cinematic pioneers the Weinsteins, though, Bloody Disgusting is reporting that the brothers are pushing the envelope by simply going to 2005 and cultivating Amityville Horror for yet another remake. Now that is innovation.

Hulk did it, Texas Chainsaw is doing it, so sure, let’s go ahead and let Amityville do it too. There's no explanation for why they’re not just going to make a sequel since there are several sequels to the 1979 original that they can rip off, but I guess we need to stop questioning Platinum Dunes’ motivation and just let them do whatever.

The 2005 remake starred a bearded Ryan Reynolds looking for every reason he could find to be shirtless in a horror movie and grossed $108 million on top of its miniscule $19 million budget. It wasn’t an amazing movie, but it was competent and did what it needed to do, make money and fill time, so doing ANOTHER remake defines “useless.” Within the next 5 years I’m convinced that all we’re going to see are remakes of remakes, and reboots of movie’s made after 2000. I’d like to keep up hope for the future of Hollywood, but this is a heartbreaking move in the wrong direction.

It's easy to forget, but Radiohead almost never made it into this decade. After OK Computer the Oxford quintet refused to do the obvious and become a conventional stadium rock act: instead they started again, binning most of the guitars along the way. Initial sessions for 2000's electronica-influenced Kid A were characterised by creative deadlock and rows that led to rumours they might split. What emerged positioned them as perhaps the era's only big band capable of genuine surprises. This even applied to the business of music with 2007's In Rainbows: the pay-what-you-like digital honesty box. The album itself saw a softening of approach, with the guitars plugged back in, but it was no less impressive than Kid A. Nor was the marvellous track they released this year – Harry Patch (In Memory Of), a tribute to the last surviving British soldier of the Great War – some kind of throwaway simply because it appeared online. So Radiohead ended the Noughties as they began, challenging themselves and, in the process, everyone else. When we speak at the end of November, and relaxed about his band's singular route through the past 10 years.

New album coming soon?
For sure, we can expect a new Thom song...well, not really new. He's going to cover someone, fyi.

Syracuse.com: "It's interesting that both Lambert and Boyle were runners-up on their respective TV talent shows yet are busting sales records. American Idol 8 winner, Kris Allen's debut, opens at No. 11 on this week's Billboard 200 after sales of 80,000 copies."

Steve Barnett's Columbia Records and Susan Boyle have a lot to be thankful for this weekend. And that goes for you two, Adam Lambert and Lady Gaga.

Eric Mabius says a lot about his career and a little about fashion
By Christopher Muther
Globe Staff / November 19, 2009



NORTHAMPTON - Over the course of a brilliantly sunny Saturday - the kind of day when the sky appears even more cerulean than usual thanks to vivid yellow and scarlet leaves that stubbornly cling to branches - it becomes very clear that Eric Mabius has a tendency to overextend himself.

Mabius, best know for his portrayal of fashion magazine heir and playboy Daniel Meade on ABC’s “Ugly Betty,’’ woke up early to drive home to Massachusetts. This fall, he and his wife, Ivy, moved back to Western Massachusetts, where they first met as freshmen at Amherst Regional High School, to raise their two sons. Whenever Mabius isn’t filming in New York, he’s driving back here to spend time with his family.

On this particular Saturday, Mabius drove home, then jumped back in the car to hit a photo shoot. After five hours of playing model, he’s settling back with beet salad and calamari to talk about his move to Massachusetts, his four seasons playing Daniel Meade, and, of course, fashion. After dinner, he’ll meet a high school friend at a nearby bar, and try to get home before his sons get to bed.

“My wife will tell you I have a tendency to do a lot in a very short amount of time,’’ he says, at which point Ivy pipes in: “You think so?’’

Jay-Z refused to walk the red carpet at the Victoria’s Secret show, The New York Post claims. The rapper who attended the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in the Big Apple last Thursday night decided not to be photographed with the lingerie models because he didn’t want to upset his wife Beyonce, who is currently on tour in Ireland.

"Victoria’s Secret begged, but Jay-Z refused," a source said. "He explained it was out of respect for Beyonce."

Jay was also given his own booth at the after-party so that he would not be photographed anywhere near the models.


TBH I have never heard a Jay-Z song. I don't listen to pop music, that's not my style.
