The Stars Of 'The Other Guys' Take MTV Behind The Scenes For An EXCLUSIVE First Look

Posted 12/16/09 6:00 pm EST by in Video


You know those buddy cop movies, the ones where the two leads are in fact full-on superstars. They're in on every major bust, they weather collateral damage and Internal Affairs investigations without a care in the world and the walls of their spacious offices are covered with awards, commendations, medals and the like. In "The Other Guys," those two cops are played by Dwayne Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson.

They're not the stars of the movie. The other guys are, a pair of bumbling cops played by Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. All four were kind enough to take us behind the scenes for an exclusive first look at Adam McKay's 2010 summer comedy. And here it is now, fresh from "Behind the Screen"!

EXCLUSIVE: Robert Downey Jr. And Jude Law Escape Death In This 'Sherlock Holmes' Clip

Posted 12/16/09 5:00 pm EST by in Video


"Sherlock Holmes" is a damn fine movie, as you'll find out when it hits theaters next week. The pairing of director Guy Ritchie with the rich history of Arthur Conan Doyle's defining creation is perfect; Ritchie's sensibilities work very well when applied to Holmes' analytical mind. This exclusive clip, fresh from the latest episode of "Behind the Screen," is more positioned to showcase the stylish action, as there's a lot of it. Take heart though, Holmes fans... the master detective is very well-serviced in the final cut. And the action really is rather badass.

Tobey Maguire Addresses Those 'Hobbit' Rumors On The 'Nine' Premiere Red Carpet

Posted 12/16/09 4:00 pm EST by in Uncategorized


Earlier this week, a rumor surfaced that Tobey Maguire's people were in the preliminary stages of discussing the actor taking on the role of Bilbo Baggins in "The Hobbit" with the film's producers. Many fans weren't so keen on the idea, but the rumor seemed viable enough given that it came out on the day "Hobbit" casting was supposed to start. Then we heard late yesterday from The Hollywood Reporter that the rumor was maybe not so true after all. Well MTV's Josh Horowitz ran into Maguire last night on the red carpet at the premiere of director Nine." Here's what the "Spider-Man" star had to tell us...

"I don't believe I've ever met ['Hobbit' director] Guillermo del Toro," he said. "So... that is some kind of false rumor." Interesting. Read More...

'Spaceballs' Asks You To Use The Schwartz In Today's Sick Day Stash

Posted 12/16/09 3:00 pm EST by in Sick Day Stash


Call them "cult classics." "Guilty pleasures." "Comfort movies." We all have a mental rolodex of flicks that may not be terribly popular but, for one reason or another, they resonate in a very special way. Maybe you saw it at the right moment. Maybe you just see gold where everyone else sees feces. Whatever the case, these are the special favorites that you keep stashed away for sick days. Here are some of ours.

With the last name of Schwartz, it's no doubt that my Sick Day Stash preference happens to be "Spaceballs." After having "May the Schwartz be with you!" screamed at me by seven year olds on my school bus for weeks on end, I knew it was time to send my mother to the video store and get my first taste of Mel Brooks. And yes, I was young enough to still be single digits in the 90s. Don't hate. Read More...

MTV Splash Page Makes A Holiday Wish For These Armors In 'Iron Man 2'

Posted 12/16/09 2:30 pm EST by in Commentary


FROM SPLASH PAGE: Tony Stark has donned plenty of armors that would be better left out of "Iron Man 2" and any subsequent Marvel films in favor of giving his classic look (and War Machine) a bigger spotlight.

War Machine, however, is just one of Tony Stark's technical masterpieces that have appeared over the course of Iron Man's half century in comics. Here are five others that would shake up theaters in an Iron Man film.

HULKBUSTER ARMOR
If Robert Downey Jr. ever confronts Edward Norton on-screen in a Marvel film, expect there to be a long pause with some loud metallic stomping noises before the camera pans up to reveal the most intimidating armor set Tony's ever put on. Last used by Stark to confront the Hulk during his post-"World War Hulk" rage, he tricked it out with adamantium needles capable of injecting the big green guy with nanites. It's the only protective suit that comes close to offering an edge in a fist fight with angry Bruce Banner.

'Sherlock Holmes' Director Guy Ritchie On Speaking To Brad Pitt: 'I'm Not Allowed To Say Anything!'

Posted 12/16/09 2:00 pm EST by in News


Several months ago, a rumor surfaced that international superstar Brad Pitt had flown to London to shoot a few scenes as the villainous Moriarty for director Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes." The rumor was squashed, only to reignite in the form of the word that Pitt had discussed playing Moriarty in a possible sequel with the film's producers. This too was put to rest but you know how hope is, always springing eternal.

So when MTV's Josh Horowitz sat down with Ritchie to talk "Holmes," the Pitt talk inevitably came up. And here's what the director had to say...

"I'm looking over there," he said, breaking into a wide grin as he glanced nervously at his publicist. Making a wagging finger motion, Ritchie laughed and exclaimed "I'm not allowed to say anything!" Read More...
