Arrested Development Going to the Big Screen

It is with extremely passionate excitement that I can utter the following phrase without failing a lie detector test. THE ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT MOVIE IS ON (period). While there have been talks of such a film for the past, oh 3 or so years, Michael Cera has overcome his awkward ego and decided to reprise the role of George Michael Bluth. The entire original cast, which featured the likes of Jason Bateman, Will Arnett and David Cross, among others, is also set to return. Ron Howard, who narrated the 53 episode long series, has been rumored to direct while series creator Michael Hurwitz will pen the screenplay.

THE POP FIX Weekend Concert Picks

Jack Black is most well-known for his roles in such film classics as Kung-Fu Panda and School of Rock, but it’s with buddy and acoustic partner-in-crime Kyle Gass that he really shows off his comedic timing, not to mention impressive shredding skills. Fresh off the release of their latest live release, The Complete Masterworks Part II, the duo has again gone on tour to “rock the socks off” countless audiences.

Shut Up, Kristin Stewart

“Twilight” actress Kristin Stewart is annoying, we all knew this. Seriously, you’d think a smile would kill her? But apparently, she’s just as bitchy and ungrateful as she looks. Even though she starred in one of the most popular and highest-grossing films of the year (not to mention the enthusiastic fans who provided this astronomical success, as well as the demand for a sequel), she’s still pissed off, as she divulged to this month’s issue of Nylon magazine: “Anywhere we’d go for Twilight was a psychotic situation.

500 Pounds of Drugs on the Bus?

Who said that 100 lbs. of weed was enough? Or 200 for that matter? Or 300 for that matter? Or 400 for that matter? Rapper Fabulous needs 500. According to The Boston Herald, Arkansas police found about 500 pounds of the mary-jane on the rapper’s tour bus. Let’s repeat that once more….500 pounds of pot.

THE CRITIC: The Oscar-Nominated Shorts

As films seem to get longer and longer only to test our poor ADD-ridden selves, there finally comes some relief for moviegoers. For those who want to keep up with all the Oscar buzz but wouldn’t be able to stay still past Benjamin Button’s middle-age years, the ten Academy Award-nominated live-action and animation shorts (that’s 40 minutes and under) are now showing in select theatres and are available on iTunes.
