2008-08-15 Toby Keith arrives with a new tour and a new movie
Keiths second movie, "Beer for My Horses," hit theaters Aug. 8 in select cities. In the comedy, Keith and Rodney Carrington share writing credits and star as defiant deputies who ditch the job to save a woman from a drug dealer. The Show Dog Productions film was "inspired by me and my lifestyle and the people I grew up around," Keith said.
I can do my show on the road with a blindfold on and no hands. I just walk out there, and thats home for me. I know right where Im at. Movies are a lot more work. Music is whats made me everything I am. Acting is a learning experience. "

Jacques Boyreau pauses from talking. This is not something the 42-year-old film promoter does very often, and when he does, there and rsquo;s a very good chance what he says next is going to be memorable. This pause comes in the middle of a week when Boyreau has talked the owner of a Portland hot-dog shop into sponsoring a series of Chicago-themed movies at the restaurant, and it and rsquo;s a little before he encourages the critics attending his screening of the Floating World Animation Festival to get up and move around the Bagdad Theater, because that and rsquo;s how French comedian Jacques Tati said movies ought to be seen, and it and rsquo;s definitely before he disappears into the back of the Bagdad to convince manager Sue Stephens that the film she should show next month is the 1984 sex comedy
2008-08-14 Henry Poole is Here-Luke Wilson and Radha Mitchell on Henry Poole is Here
And stuff like that which is a kid and a dog. I havent done a lot, but I was very conscious of just trying to get to know Morgan. It was her first movie and shes obviously very young so that can always be kind of tenuous. Its overwhelming just for me to be on a set, and you get a child on a set and theres so much going on1 But Mark Pellington the director was really good with her. He has a daughter about her age and he was very sweet with her. And yeah, you just want to help them kind of concentrate and focus. But she was nice and such a sweet little kid. It was a very relaxed set. As heavy as some of the material was, it was kind of a nice, tight-knit crew. And yeah, she did a great job. "

2008-08-14 Michel Houellebecq may be delighted by the critics hatred Film
A more benevolent reporter from Spanish daily El Pas dutifully watched the "making-of" of the film as well as the movie itself, but was left puzzled. In the documentary, he wrote, "Houellebecq defines himself as a part-time human being" with affinities with robots and mutants. "This fascination might explain his film aesthetics, which recall 70s sci-fi B-movies. "
Houellebecq did make an appearance later, at the movies screening for the general public. "Relaxed, fag in mouth, followed by his wife and dog, (he) arrived . like a movie star when no one was expecting him any longer," said an exasperated reporter from Le Figaro.
The critics have slammed Michel Houellebecqs directorial debut. But perhaps, says Gwladys Fouch, a backlash is just what he wants - Film Culture Michel Houellebecq Film

Of course, the bands unbelievable decade-long run wasnt all flowers and hippie beads. The nonstop touring, rock-star lifestyle and mounting pressure from Negron to be the dominant frontman all took their toll. Their excesses with sex, drugs and rock n roll have been chronicled in books by Greenspoon ("One Is the Loneliest Number") and Negron ("Three Dog Nightmare"). The latter battled addictions for a number of years, but has been clean and sober for some time, and tours on his own singing Three Dog Night hits and cautioning against drug use.

After all, with her naturally pink fur, a long swan-like neck, the way her tail is uniquely shaped like a heart, and her perfectly round lavender spots, it would be a mistake for Sassie not to be the next It Dog. Sassie begins practicing her autograph and imagining what kind of movies she will star in. She could do her own stunts, she could be in some kind of danger with lots of romance, comedy, anything goes.
2008-08-10 RT. ie Entertainment: The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
One of the biggest problems, however, - which all three Mummy movies share - is the preposterous amount of CGI used. In action movies like this it certainly curtails expenses, yet you cant beat live action sequences.
Reprising his role as Jonathan, John Hannah has even less to do than previously. This also goes for Liam Cunninghams underwritten Mad Dog Maguire.

Edison is credited with helping to create the rudiments of cinematic grammar with his early short films, but they were created not to tell stories but to demonstrate the cameras, sound recorders and other equipment he was inventing. Like Edison, Lucas has used his movies more as software to demonstrate or advertise his visual effects, sound, game, TV and animation businesses. Lucas founded the visual effects company Industrial Light and Magic in 1975 in order to create effects for his upcoming "Star Wars" movie. Not only did ILM create dazzling and revolutionary computerized imagery for that movie, but "Star Wars" served as a nifty demo for a company that quickly became a major effects provider for non-Lucas films. (Want to stage a dogfight on your very own Death Star We can make it for you wholesale. ) Similarly, Lucas used the
