In the eyes of an entire generation, man's eternal struggle to define himself and his purpose is best summed up by nine immortal words.
"I am Cornholio! I need T.P. for my bunghole!"
Recently, we were able to get a rare interview with Mike Judge, the creator of such pop-culture goodies as "Beavis & Butt-Head," "Office Space," "Idiocracy" and "King of the Hill." In addition to unearthing major details about his next film "Extract," Judge told us that Beavis & Butt-head are making their return in a brief intro to Volume 3 of his cartoon festival "Animation Show," and could soon become a live-action movie.
"For some reason, I used to hate the idea for years," he said of a "Beavis & Butt-head" movie starring two living, breathing, heh-heh-heh-ing actors. "Now, I think maybe there's something there." Read more...
Whatever else negative you can say about Uwe Boll, one thing you can't criticize him on is his strong love for video games. I mean, there may be over 200,000 signatures on an online petition asking that he stop making movies, but he clearly loves the gamer market, and at least goes into each project hoping to make good films for that fanboy community.
Right? Right?!?
"You go for it, to please the game fans, but on the other hand if you have the hard core gamers, they live in their own world. And you cannot fulfill their ideas from a video game based movie, it's impossible," Boll recently told MTV News. "And to be honest, the real gamers are the typical download guys, right? They don't pay anything for movies, because they illegally download the movies. So why I should please these guys? I need the normal audience."
That's the Uwe Boll I know and love – the Uwe Boll who'll criticize even his most ardent followers. God bless you, sir. Read more...
Just two weeks ago, Lauren Conrad put a jump in our step when she announced to MTV News that she and the rest of the cast had had “discussions” about a big-screen version of “The Hills.”
Alas, the second my colleague Josh Horowitz called it the best “idea in the history of the universe,” I should have known it was too good to be true.
Cat fight!
“I've never discussed a movie possibility for 'The Hills'…and I'm not sure if for my first movie I'd let Lauren Conrad narrate me, so I don't think that would be something I would do," Heidi Montag told us over the weekend. "If I was doing movies, I'd want it to be with Denzel Washington or something like that. If they were to make a 'Hills' movie, I wouldn't be in it. No, thank you.” Read more...
First off, Ashley Greene is like the nicest person I think I've ever talked to in my entire life. Secondly, she gave us tons of cool "Twilight" revelations when I interviewed her from the set of the movie, which resulted in this just-published article. Make sure you head over to the Movies site and check it out.
But in my mind, one of the most interesting characters in the series is Bella's soft-spoken father Charlie. Naturally, I had to ask Ashley whether rumors on his casting were correct.
"Billy Burke is playing him," she confirmed. "It's funny, because he's friends with a couple of my really good friends. He was in 'Fracture,' and 'Untraceable' with Diane Lane, which I really want to see. I've only met him once, and I don't really have any scenes with him yet. But I think he's a pretty good fit...He's commented on making the character a strong character." Read more...
