Mariah Carey Says People Think She’s A Ditzy Moron
2008-03-19 08:23:00
UsMagazine has some new quotes from Mariah Carey and they are pretty hilarious! One thing is for sure, she’s not a shy girl! On people’s perception of what she’s like: “It’s a dichotomy, I understand. I understand that people think I’m a ditzy moron.” On how a boyfriend couldn’t compete with her fans: I’ve always had really low self-esteem, and I still do. What’s weird about that is being onstage, and the love that you get, and the adoration that you feel from your real fans. It’s hard for a partner to compete – just imagine.” On her image: She considers herself a “freaking prude,” and sees herself as “eternally 12.” Three assistants?!? Can you imagine???On weight loss: “I don’t know why everyone thinks I lost 30 pounds,” she says. “This trainer has actually helped me reshape my arms. That’s where I gained most of my weight: upper body. That’s just one thing you have to lose weight for.” On her breakdown in 2001: “It’s not that...

Britney Spears has been ordered to pay Kevin Federline’s legal bills in t
2008-03-19 00:37:00
Spears is ordered to pay up -- Britney Spears has been ordered to pay $375,000 of Kevin Federline’s legal bills in their ongoing child custody case. The payment to Federline's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, is for four months work on the couple's ongoing custody battle, but less than Spears' current payments of $500,000. The singer's lawyer, Stacy Phillips, argued in court last week that Kaplan had been over-charging Spears and requested contributions from Federline. According to Kaplan, his fees are 'far under market for the package' saying that 'this is not a simple custody case.' And Los Angeles Court Commissioner Scott Gordon called it “reasonable” to make Spears pay so much because “the actions of [Spears] caused the great majority of litigation.”

Eccusive "Speed Racer"
2008-03-18 23:30:00
Continuing our coverage of the 2008 ShoWest Convention in Las Vegas, ComingSoon.net attended the Warner Bros. presentation "The Big Picture", which gave a bit more of an expansive view of Larry and Andrew Wachowski's adaptation of the popular cartoon Speed Racer .Warner Bros. President Alan Horn introduced the Wachowskis' long-time producer Joel Silver, who looked like a proud Papa as he brought out three of the film's primary cast: Emile Hirsch, who plays Speed Racer, Christina Ricci, who plays his girlfriend Trixie, and Matthew Fox, the mysterious Racer X, before showing an amazing four-minute clip that included some of the footage from the recent trailer but also gave a far clearer picture of the movie's plot than what's hinted in previous footage. Essentially, a rich mogul has gotten tired of Speed Racer winning every race and he offers a million dollar bounty to anyone who takes Speed Racer out in the next big race. With such danger all around him, Speed's Mach 5 is upgrad...

No Plans For Batman 3 Yet
2008-03-18 23:27:00
With the second of the current Batman flicks rapidly approaching (The Dark Knight), speculation is already staring to run wild about Batman 3. Who will be in it, who will the villains be, will the Joker be back with another actor… yadda yadda yadda. There’s only one catch, neither Christopher Nolan or Christian Bale are currently locked in for a possible third film yet. The good folks over at RopeofSilicon give us this following excerpt from an interview with the duo: EW: So do you think there will be a part 3 of Batman? Bale: Um, look, let’s wait and see… EW: Or, I guess it’d be part 7. Bale: No, no, no, no, no. [Smiling] Part 3 is what I’d consider it, yeah, I don’t say part 7. Batman begins — that was the beginning there, with all due respect to the others. We are re-creating this. You know, obviously the decision is out of my hands. I would, knowing the Dark Knight story, I would like very much to complete a trilogy. And I think that knowing the story of The Dark...

Bryan Singer talks Superman Returns Sequel
2008-03-18 20:43:00
Looks like Bryan Singer is setting his sights on the Big Blue Boyscout. In a recent interview he states pretty clearly that the sequel to Superman Returns is well underway. SuperheroHype quotes Singer:“I’m just getting back with writers after the strike. We’re just in the development phase. I’m starting to develop a sequel…with the intention of directing it,” he told the magazine.About the negative reaction to the first film’s focus on the drama instead of the action, Singer added, “The first one was a romantic film and a nostalgic film… And now that the characters are established, there’s really an opportunity to up the threat levels.” Now before we all get on the barking list against Superman Returns , I wasn’t overly impressed with it. That being said I also didn’t hate it. Singer is just one of those people I have to trust with Superman. He did fine by me with XMen and though he didn’t put out the best Superman movie, I can forgive him considering the ...

Dooms Day Synopsis

Three decades after a major country is quarantined in hopes of containing a lethal and highly contagious virus nicknamed "Reaper," signs that the super-bug has resurfaced in a major city prompt desperate specialists to race back into the infected zone to find a cure in director Neal Marshall's (The Descent) miasmic speculative sci-fi thriller.

Thirty years later, the inhabitants of planet Earth thought that they had seen the last of the merciless killer disease, but they couldn't have been more wrong.

Trailer For 'Tropic Thunder!'
2008-03-18 20:29:00
It's here! Surely this must be one of the quickest follow-ups to a teaser in trailer history. You can watch an official, high quality version over on the film's official website if you prefer. I am trying to tell myself that this won't be as funny as the trailer -- that all the good stuff will be ruined -- but I can't make myself believe it. And it is all because of Robert Downey Jr. wearing a monk's robe and freaky Dune-blue contacts. Plus I want to know what the heck Ben Stiller is doing with two baby pandas.Tropic Thunder opens on August 15th, 2008. And I still want an official patch.

James Mangold Sets His Sight on 'Cyclops'
2008-03-18 20:26:00
Admit it, the first thing you thought when you read that was "WHAT? A Cyclops spin-off? Will it never end?"But it's not that Cyclops -- it is the Alexis Nolent graphic novel. Variety reports that Warner Bros has optioned the rights to Nolent's novel, and James Mangold is set to direct. The story is set in the near future, where mercenary forces wear cameras in their helmets, broadcasting live to command centers and living rooms alike. One of the mercenaries is chosen to lead an elite squad -- but begins to discover he isn't fighting for freedom or justice, but commerce.Mangold is attracted to the novel's political relevancy. "It is an electrifying package you find in the best sci-fi: great action sequences combined with themes that are eminently foreseeable." Warner Bros is putting the project on the fast track, and expects to have it in the hands of screenwriters by next week. I imagine the title will be changed somewhere during production.This is the second Nolent novel to be ...

Britney Spears date with her sons
2008-02-28 06:53:00
Britney Spears was reunited with her sons again on Feb 25. The fall pop princess’ children Preston, 2, and Jayden, 1, were driven to her Studio House by Kevin Federline’s bodyguard for a three-hour visit. It was the second visitation in three days; on Saturday, Spears saw her children for the first time since Jan. 3 after working out a structured visitation arrangement with Federline. A court order preventing Spears from seeing her sons was put in place at the beginning of the year after she refused to return the children to Federline, reports People. After police were called to her Los Angeles home, Spears was taken to a local hospital for psychiatric treatment. She was released but was readmitted earlier this month and spent six days receiving treatment for mental health problems.
