Someone with a steady hand sent Sean Patrick Flannery a picture of the best "Boondock Saints" jack-o-lantern you're likely to see this year, and he retweeted in kind. There really wasn't any other choice for the Twitter Pic of the Day.

In other tweets, David Slade continued his "Eclipse" posting with a shot of one of the film's stunt co-coordinators and Rachelle LeFevre admitted to crying during "Where the Wild Things Are." Check out those post below along an old clip of The Ultimate Warrior that Aziz Ansari dug up, how Eliza Dushku feels about Dungeons & Dragons, who wants her at his table to play and how Ice-T is faring at "Borderlands" on his Xbox 360. I'm @brianwarmoth, and this is the Twitter-Wood report for October 27, 2009. Read more...

So it would seem the poor economy hasn't quite hit our friends at Universal Pictures. Exhibit A: I'm in Bora Bora. That's right, a few hours ago I finished a long trek that began in New York, took me to LA, then to Papeete via Air Tahiti (duh), on a connecting flight to Bora Bora, and finally a little boat ride to our absurdly idyllic backdrop for the junket that's about to get underway.

What movie is Universal shelling out this kind of cash for? Why "Couples Retreat" of course! Take a little "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," throw a dash of Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau and what do ya know?!? So for the next few days intrepid MTV News producer Vanessa White Wolf and I will be here in a world an awfully long way from our Times Square home to soak up the sights and sounds and have a little fun chatting with the stars in some stupendously cool environs. Oh, and we'll make our co-workers in New York hate us as they never have before. (Editor's note: Already there, Josh. Already there.) Read more...

For those of you who caught the Boise State game or "Big Brother" last night, I've got some good news for you. You can click right on ahead and find out what Seth Meyers and Shannon Elizabeth were thinking while you picked your jaw up off the floor in front of the TV. I'm in the prior camp.

Moving on, I've got a pile of photos on the Twitter-Wood playlist today. Selecting among all of Emmy Rossum's shots onstage with Counting Crows in Central Park proved too difficult, so I just grabbed one and suggest you head over to her account for the rest. Grabbing the Twitter Pic of the Day honors, however, was Brett Ratner, who posted a shot of himself with Michael Jackson and P. Diddy. There seems to be something different going on with each of them in the scene. Keep on going, and you'll see some others from David Slade and Danny Masterson, as well as commentary from Jeremy Piven on his Letterman appearance last night where he addressed his pullout from "Speed the Plow" on Broadway last year. It's in the Twitter-Wood Report for September 4, 2009.

Disney surprised a lot of tweeters this morning when the company announced its acquisition of Spider-Man and X-Men publishers Marvel Entertainment. Kevin Smith, Jeff Katz, Dax Shepard, and many others chimed in with thoughts on the purchase.

Elsewhere, the tweets are still trickling in from those remembering DJ AM, including renowned Vegas party-goer Paris Hilton. The list of tweets today was actually fairly thick to sort through, with all of these reactions, a photograph of a "Twilight" star biting into a horse and Bob Saget's response to a fan's request for him to tell the "Aristocrats" joke on Twitter. It's all below in the Twitter-Wood Report for August 31, 2009. Read more...

As you may recall from yesterday's Twitter-Wood, John Stamos called upon one of his Twitter fans to post a photo of his alleged Uncle Jesse-based tattoo. Well today that tweeter responded in kind, and the wrist tattoos are linked to at the top of the report for all to see now.

In other tweets, Robert Rodriguez gleefully celebrated his confirmed actors for "Machete," calling out Jessica Alba and Robert De Niro. As it turns out, the director has his own Twitter fan in Dane Cook, who's read the script. Kristen Bell, meanwhile, claims to have been reading "hacked" tweets coming out of her account. In what may be a related event, Dax Shepard called out a poser using the fake name @IMkristenBeII (note how two upper case i's can resemble two lowercase L's), who tried to break up with him. You can check out all that drama and more below. I'm @brianwarmoth, and this is the Twitter-Wood report for August 27, 2009. Read more...

Peter FacinelliWarmoth's out, and he stuck me with the Twitter-Wood duties. He was here in the office only a few hours ago. Why didn't I force him to sit down and write it, under penalty of torture?!??!?! I don't have the routine down the way he does, so I hope you'll forgive what is sure to be a lesser TW column. I try my best, but Warmoth's shoes are big ones to fill.

I think I hit the main beats. "Twilight" star Peter Facinelli 'fessed up to being a "Star Trek" fan after a follower called him out for referring to a lousy "Trek" fight from the original series. Also, Mandy Moore proved that she has good taste in music while Dax Shepard and Stephen Fry both made some stunning sociological observations. Plus a very special Twitter Pic of the Day from "Harry Potter" star and "Superbad" fan Tom Felton, who got to hang with Jonah Hill recently. I'm @geminibros and this is your daily update of the goings-on around Twitter-Wood. Read more...

Dax ShepardWhen most of us throw parties, they're pretty standard affairs. A little booze, some chips & dip, a shuffled playlist (who really uses CDs anymore?), maybe some game-like diversions like cards or "Rock Band." As today's Daily TwitPic proves, celebrities are on a whole other trip when they throw parties.

Celebs like Dax Shepard, who recently brought his pals together to drink a few beers and fight for our freedom. See, while we're all just hanging out with friends, Shepard had everyone show up in costume for a "Rambo" trilogy party. And it's not even Halloween! Madness! I want to know what's up with the dude in the back-- was he captured mid-jump or is he pulling some ninja move where he's braced up high on the wall. Because I have to say... it looks like the latter. And that's badass. Read more...

Rose McGowanThe "Inglourious Basterds" premiere last night attracted a huge lineup of stars, and many of them, including Brett Ratner, Diablo Cody and Sarah Silverman shared their reactions today via tweets. The inspiration that Ratner drew for his remake of "The Boys from Brazil" will be of particular interest to movie fans, as his impassioned tweets certainly lit up the Twitter-Wood feed today.

Rose McGowan, meanwhile, cued up a copy of "Twilight" only to be quickly appalled by the murder of the innocent deer, which she announced on her account. All of these great moments, as well as Frankie Muniz's kickball match with the Jonas Brothers and Dax Shepard's "Rambo" party wound up below in the Twitter-Wood report for August 11, 2009.

My position during the show was the limo drop, which is where the stars go when they leave the show and hop into their ride. During the show but after all his hilarity, Sacha Baron Cohen was sitting in the back of a black SUV with the window rolled down. His head disappeared from view, which is really not a surprising occurrence, until the body that replaced his was Jim Carrey. I'm assuming they must have traded seats in the car.

Off to the side, Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell were talking amongst themselves, when suddenly Dax ran over to the Jim-Sacha car and reached in to hug Jim Carrey and wave to Sacha, now sitting on the other side of the car. Read more...
