Watch: Lady GaGa turns 'Bad Romance' into a great music video

10 November 2009 12:38 PM, PST | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »

  Lady GaGa is at it again. She’s taken a paper-thin slice of a song—in this case “Bad Romance”—and turned it into a fascinating video that peels back layers never evident in the tune.   The superstar-in-training delivers her  trippiest video yet (although “Paparazzi” was pretty mindblowing in parts). This one recalls everything from “Clockwork Orange” to “Sunset Blvd” to “Austin Powers” to  “Dr. No” to things we haven’t even figured out yet.   The basic plot is the Lady GaGa is a robot taken over by Russian supermodels (or so we assume they’re Russian from the vodka), who force her to... »

Spike TV's 2009 Scream Awards: star-studded and surreal

28 October 2009 3:24 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

I don't know if you caught last night's 2009 Scream Awards on Spike TV last night. But if you didn't, then you missed out on one of the strangest parades of Hollywood back-patting ever staged. For those unfamiliar with this new heir to the Oscars and the Golden Globes, the Scream Awards are ostensibly all about celebrating the best in sci-fi, fantasy, and horror on both the big and the small screen. And just to show that the event is even cooler than the MTV Movie Awards, the categories honor such superlatives as Best Horror Movie, Best Villain, and my personal favorite, »

The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009) Movie Review

24 October 2009 1:12 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »

“The Men Who Stare at Goats”, starring and produced by George Clooney, is an adaption of Jon Ronson’s 2004 nonfiction book about alleged psychic experiments conducted by the U.S. military. Like “The Informant!”, another Clooney-produced movie, “Goats” is ostensibly based on true events, but has clearly stretched the facts for the sake of getting laughs. The movie aims to be a “Catch-22” or “Dr. Strangelove” style spoof of the absurdities of military bureaucracy, but ultimately it’s more of a gentle, loving send-up than the sharp satire it could have been. Ewan McGregor is Bob Wilton, a stand-in for author Ronson, who’s a down on his luck newspaper reporter in Michigan. Wilton’s wife has left him for another man (who wears a prosthetic arm apparently borrowed from Dr. No), and he’s not exactly getting the plum assignments these days. For one of his stories, he interviews »

Buzz Break: Single and Ready to Mingle

21 October 2009 2:00 PM, PDT | Movieline | See recent Movieline news »

· A Single Man star Nicholas Hoult probably has a lot to talk about with Keira Knightley and Scarlett Johansson now, as Tom Ford has added Hoult to the illustrious list of stars who've gone topless for him to sell magazines (in Hoult's case, for the new Out).

· Congratulations to erstwhile Michael Scott paramour Amy Ryan and her fiance, who became the proud parents of a baby girl last week.

· Bad news for Hollywood gays, though, as T.R. Knight and Rosie O'Donnell both appear to have split from their partners.

· Is everybody from TV dealing oxycodone now? First there was the Big Brother dude, and now there's Smallville's Sam Jones, who was arrested today after taking part in a conspiracy to deal more than 10,000 pills of oxycodone.

· Joseph Wiseman, who played James Bond villain Dr. No, died Monday at the age of 91. Pour out a martini for him in honor, won't you? »

Joseph Wiseman: A tribute to the late Dr. No

21 October 2009 1:15 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Joseph Wiseman, the Canadian-born actor best known for his deliciously evil portrayal of the James Bond villain, Dr. No, passed away yesterday at age 91. Wiseman appeared in a slew of Broadway productions, television shows, and movies such as Viva Zapata! with Marlon Brando and The Unforgiven with Burt Lancaster. But he will always be remembered for locking horns with Sean Connery's agent 007 in 1962's Dr. No. Wiseman's character, a mad scientist with an arsenal of fiendishly wry quips, a charter membership in Spectre, and a nasty atomic-powered radio-beam weapon, became the prototypical Bond villain. Later in his life, the »

Dr. No Dies At 91

21 October 2009 9:01 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

James Bond's original nemesis Dr. No has died - the actor Joseph Wiseman passed away on Monday.

Wiseman played the metal-clawed, crazed scientist in the first ever 007 feature film in 1962, which starred Sean Connery and Ursula Andress.

He died aged 91 at his home in New York after a prolonged battle with ill health - almost eight months after his wife, modern dancer/choreographer Pearl Lang, died suddenly from a heart attack following hip surgery.

As well as his role as Dr. No, Wiseman featured in a string of films including Detective Story and The Unforgiven.

He also had guest roles in Law & Order, The Streets of San Francisco and The Twilight Zone. »

Original Bond Villain Dies Aged 91

21 October 2009 6:17 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Sad news today that Joseph Wiseman who played the first James Bond villain opposite Sean Connery in Dr. No has died ages 91. Wiseman played the character Dr. Julius No in the 1962 film.

The La Times have reported that Wiseman’s health had recently been deteriorating and that he died at his home in Manhattan. His last TV role was in an episode of Law And Order in 1996 with his last performance on stage in the 2001 production of Judgment At Nuremberg.

I think I’ve seen Dr. No more times than any other Bond and along with Connery, Ursula Andress coming out of the water and a ‘dragon’, Wiseman’s performance was excellent and paved the way for 20 other Bond villains over the next 50 years!

Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. Rip Mr. Wiseman.

Breaking News: Joseph Wiseman, The Original James Bond Villain, Dead At Age 91

20 October 2009 12:20 PM, PDT | Cinemaretro.com | See recent CinemaRetro news »

Joseph Wiseman, who made screen history as the first 007 screen villain in the title role of Dr. No, has died at age 91. Wiseman was a distinguished name in both film and on stage, and remained active on Broadway in recent years. Only a few years ago,  he had a major role in the revival of "Judgment at Nuremberg." Wiseman also had many other major films to his credit including The Night They Raided Minsky's, Detective Story and The Unforgiven. Wiseman rarely granted interviews, despite countless requests to discuss his role in Dr. No. On a personal note, back in the 1990s, I attended a New York film event at which Sean Connery was honored. To everyone's surprise, Joseph Wiseman was among the speakers and he reflected fondly on Dr. No. When a film clip was shown of Connery and Wiseman in the film, the audience went wild. He was a »

Cinematical Seven: Great On-Screen Mad Scientists

9 September 2009 8:02 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

This week, the first season of J.J. Abrams' terrific television series Fringe comes to DVD, and if you haven't seen it yet, well, this is a great chance to catch up on what you missed before the new season starts on Sept. 17. The most intriguing character on the show is Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble), once a brilliant, acclaimed scientist whose work in the area of "fringe science" made him the father of any number of ethically questionable, highly dangerous, and flat-out weird innovations that now seem to be popping up all over the place. In the tradition of the great mad scientists of literature and film, Bishop's brilliance and the nature of his work drove him bugnuts crazy, leading to his being institutionalized for 17 years.

Going back to Dr. Frankenstein, Dr. Caligari and Dr. Mabuse, science has long been a force that drives gifted men insane, often with violent consequences. »

The Blu-Ray Review: Goldfinger (1964)

2 September 2009 5:06 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Colin Jacobson reviews the James Bond classic in HD.

For my money, Bond never got any better than Goldfinger. The series got bigger and flashier, but no film ever portrayed the fun, action, and danger, and the high-tech nuttiness of the world of James Bond any more perfectly than this 1964 classic. This was the film that convinced me that Sean Connery was unquestionably the best Bond ever. It may sound like heresy, but for much of my life, I thought Roger Moore defined the character. It's a matter of timing. By the time I became interested in the series in 1979 with Moonraker, Connery had been without his license to kill for eight years and Moore was firmly ensconced in the role. Considering that these were the days before common and affordable VCRs, that meant that for all intents, Moore was Bond to my generation. We had very little experience with anyone else. »

The Blu-Ray Review: From Russia With Love (1963)

26 August 2009 4:13 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Colin reviews the second James Bond film in the series.

For reasons that seem absolutely mystifying to me now, I used to dislike 1963's From Russia With Love, the second James Bond film. I always liked its predecessor, 1962's Dr. No, and I absolutely adored the follow-up, 1964's Goldfinger.

For reasons unknown, I just couldn't get into Russia. I vaguely recall an impression that it was dull and slow moving, but now that I've seen it again, I think I must have watched it on Opposite Day, for the truth of the matter is quite different from my old perception.

In fact, I now feel that Russia is clearly one of the best Bond films. It surpasses Dr. No and definitely rivals Goldfinger and 1965's Thunderball. Man, what was I thinking when I disliked this movie? I guess I'm not infallible after all!

In any case, I find Russia to »
