Sadly, I wasn't able to make it to Los Angeles to attend tonight's Dizzy Feet benefit gala where Jenna Dewan-Tatum will be perform with Briana Evigan ('Step Up 2') and Sharni Vinson ('Step Up 3') and Channing Tatum will also present with Rob Hoffman ('Step Up 2') and Rick Malambri ('Step Up 3'), but I won't let that stop any of us from getting the very latest news from the event.
For those who don't know, Dizzy Feet Foundation was founded in 2009 by producer Nigel Lythgoe, director Adam Shankman, "Dancing with the Stars" judge Carrie Ann Inaba and actress Katie Holmes to help underprivileged young people realize their dream of becoming professional dancers and to support, improve, and increase access to dance education in the Unites States.
I have setup a new Twitter list on Chan's official Twitter that will let fans follow over 70 (and »

The Welsh-Moroccan powerhouse is lining up a comedy à clef of his stripping days, while Susan Boyle's brother reckons Kathy Bates might be the woman for the Scottish singer's story
The Full Monty was a decent film and all, but it wasn't perfect. Where, for instance, was the troupe of irrepressible breakdancing children? Where were all the oddly patterned shirts? And why, for God's sake, wasn't Robert Carlyle's character a Welsh/Moroccan former goat herder with a catchphrase based on his profound inability to grasp the concept of chronology?
Well, fret no more. All of those problems are about to be ironed out. And, somewhat distressingly, Chico from X Factor is the one who'll be doing the ironing. He's co-written a film with a man who Wikipedia claims is his lodger. It's called Lunchbox. It's a "raunchy comedy about a stripping troupe on tour in Europe". It's based on Chico's own life. »

When it comes to my home entertainment collection, I have a problem saying no. If it's cheap enough and I can come up with a rationale for owning it, I'll shell out my hard earned dollars. Of course, this results in my shelves sagging under the weight of unloved and unwatched DVDs that seemed like a good idea at the time -- frankly, I couldn't tell you why I had to buy my very own copy of Step Up 2. But, selling those unwanted discs can be a bit of a hassle, and this is where Glyde comes in. This new service was created by the founder of eBay Motors and promises a new (and easier) way of buying and selling your used DVDs, video games, books, or CDs online.
So here's how it works: you simply sign up for an account, enter your credit card info, shipping address and you're ready to go. »

Jenna Dewan-Tatum wrapped filming on her latest movie, 'Legend of Hell's Gate', last week and celebrated that achievement, signing on to another movie, and getting over a cold by partaking in a little retail therapy at L.A.'s Paige Premium Denim and Armani Exchange today.
Here's what Just Jared had to say about Jenna's shopping trip...
A fresh faced Jenna Dewan does some retail therapy at L.A.’s Paige Premium Denim on Monday (November 23).
The 28-year-old actress, who is currently filming The Legend of Hell’s Gate: An American Conspiracy with One Tree Hill’s James Lafferty, is lucky to catch a break now - it sounds like she’ll be busy over the next few weeks!
“Big big week ahead of me!” Jenna tweeted. “Rehearsals for dizzyfeet, meetings, signed on to do new movie, thanksgiving cooking so much!”

For any of the creative people involved on the first "Twilight," the past two years has been a dramatic journey few of them ever foresaw happening. At best, the first "Twilight" was going to be a popular teen flick that made somewhere between $50 and $75 million in the U.S. and maybe spawn a sequel. Very few of the behind-the-camera talent saw a massive franchise-creating blockbuster in the making. No one fits that profile more than screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg. Before the property took off, the longtime TV writer's biggest claim to fame was the screenplay for "Step Up" and her producing... »

There have been three attempts so far at adapting Marvel Comics' ultra-violent vigilante The Punisher on to the big screen.
The first film was in 1989, a direct-to-video release starring Dolph Lundgren which omitted many of the character's hallmarks and has been swept aside as a very early and rather ill-considered effort.
Much later, Marvel pressed the reset button and delivered a 2004 reboot starring Thomas Jane and directed by Jonathan Hensleigh, the first directorial role for the screenwriter.
After various deliberations over putting a sequel in motion, Jane and Hensleigh dropped out and the next film, Punisher: War Zone, saw Ray Stevenson take over the lead role and Lexi Alexander directing. It came out in December last year in the USA, and in February in the UK.
Marvel itself was involved in producing the latter two movies, which Lionsgate distributed in the USA and Sony's Columbia Pictures handled overseas.

Jenna Dewan-Tatum tweeted yesterday that she would be both presenting and performing with "So You Think You Can Dance" dancers and more at the upcoming Dizzy Feet Foundation benefit, and today, she announced that Chan would also be presenting with her.
Dizzy Feet Foundation was founded in 2009 by producer Nigel Lythgoe, director Adam Shankman, "Dancing with the Stars" judge Carrie Ann Inaba and actress Katie Holmes to help underprivileged young people realize their dream of becoming professional dancers and to support, improve, and increase access to dance education in the Unites States.
Guided by a board consisting of some of the most illustrious names in the American dance community, the foundation's mission is threefold: (1) to provide scholarships to talented students studying at accredited dance schools, studios, or institutions; (2) to establish national standards for dance education and an accreditation program for dance schools in all of the major styles of dance; and (3) to develop, »

Aliens In The Attic (Blu-ray)
Directed by: John Schultz
Cast: Carter Jenkins, Austin Robert Butler, Ashley Tisdale, Robert Hoffman, Kevin Nealon, Doris Roberts, Andy Richter
Running Time: 1 hr 28 mins
Rating: PG
Due Out: November 3, 2009
Plot: A quartet of heavily-armed extra-terrestrials come to Earth to retrieve a previously abandoned doomsday machine. Who can stop them? Kids!
Who’s It For? This is the fluffiest and family-friendliest presentation of a possible alien takeover in eons. The tiny green aliens are scary more than ugly, and the overall violence in the film is for the most part slapstick. My dog would probably scamper down to the basement after a couple of loud crashes, but she has always been a wuss.
Movie:
Aliens In The Attic is a movie of shenanigans from start to finish. Before the title becomes relevant, the kids are partaking in rebellious activity, like giving the online school grades the ol’ two letter grade bump, »

Quickcard Review – Chicago International Film Festival Review
Directed by: Andrea Arnold
Cast: Katie Jarvis, Michael Fassbender
Running Time: 2 hrs, 3 mins
Rating: R
Plot: A 15-year-old girl (Jarvis) who lives with her mother and sister in public housing has dreams of becoming a hip-hop dancer.
Who’S It For? Tired of movies that portray “the streets” with too much sparkle? Want a bit more reality in your coming of age stories? Here’s Fish Tank.
Overall
With long takes and no musical score, Fish Tank is one of those films that is subtle in presentation – but is as large as life when considering its story. It’s the tale of growing up and getting out like we’ve seen before, but this time without the soft edges. Some more than obvious imagery at the end of the film provides us with closure, but not before irrevocable mistakes are made first. »

Adam Shankman is a busy, busy man. Since directing 2005’s The Pacifier and Cheaper By the Dozen, Shankman has barely had a break, taking on numerous projects directing, producing, and choreographing films, as well as being a judge on the hit show So You Think You Can Dance. Now Shankman is adding another project to his résumé with a film version of the Broadway musical Rock of Ages.
Rock of Ages has been incredibly successful on the stage (the play has earned five Tony nominations), and if his work with Hairspray is any indicator, Shankman is just the man to make the stage production translate to the big screen.
With films such as dance flicks Step Up and Step Up 2: The Streets and the hit musical Hairspray to his credit, Shankman has had experience working in genres that may have less widespread appeal than some. This is part of »

New Line have picked up a pitch by Step Up 3D writers Emily Meyer and Amy Adelson for teen romcom What Boys Want, featuring Disney Channel star Selena Gomez.Does that title sound familiar? Try this: it's about a girl who can hear what the opposite sex are thinking.Yup indeedy. Although there's no mention of it in Variety's story, this is sounding awfully like a sequel or a spinoff or a reboot or just something that sounds very unofficially similar to 2001's Mel Gibson starrer What Women Want, in which Gibson played a guy who... could hear what the opposite sex were thinking.Gibson used his talent to win Helen Hunt, but Gomez's potential conquest has yet to be revealed. We're sure he will be wholesome. At least by the end of the movie. »

Ok, so I liked What Women Want in a guilty-pleasure way, plus Mel waxing his leg was pretty funny. But a Tween-centric spin-off/sequel/remake/rip-off or whatever they wish to call it, by Disney nonetheless, even I can't stomach that! The studio is developing something called What Boys Want from a pitch by Amy Andelson and Emily Meyer who are also providing the Mouse with Step Up 3D. You read that right - a third Step Up And in 3D. There... »

Tuesday means a new episode of Melrose Place and Jenna Dewan's first appearance on the show. It's also the return of another original cast member: Daphne Zuniga. She returns as Riley's photographer and we have two sneak peeks, the promo and promo photos for you. Riley has a tiny waist. It makes me jealous.
Daphne Zuniga Returns As Jo Reynolds And Jenna Dewan (“Step Up”) Guest Stars
Ella (Katie Cassidy) and Riley (Jessica Lucas) arrive at the Anton V photo shoot and meet the photographer ─ former Melrose Place resident, Jo Reynolds (Daphne Zuniga).
Jo feels that Riley’s inexperience is preventing Jo from getting her shot, so Jo pushes Riley’s buttons and insists on a topless shoot to help Riley get in touch with her emotions.
Meanwhile, Jonah (Michael Rady) meets with a producer’s development exec, Kendra (guest star Jenna Dewan, “Step Up”), who invites him to »

Channing Tatum has been making a lot of celeb lists this week. On today's "In the Press" post, Empire Magazine have chosen Chan as one of their 100 Sexiest Movie Stars for 2009. Check out what the UK mag had to say about why they picked him...
"Though a bigger deal in America than he is here over in Blighty, this hasn't stopped the often unshirted and shockingly buff Channing from wiggling his way into the nation's sexual subconscious, what with his body-flaunting antics in Step Up and his more recent appearance in cinematic candyfloss GI Joe. Expect more rippling Alabaman abs on your screens for a long while yet. Most alluring as...the body-popping community-service-serving one-man dancing powerhouse that is Tyler Gage in Step Up."

Channing Tatum himself tweeted news this morning of the first trailer for Dear John, his inaugural entry into the world of heart-tugging, lady-ready, three-hanky multiplex romance. More than a transparent gesture of self-promotion, however, the message signaled an implicit gesture of pride announcing Tatum's arrival just beyond your expectations. It wasn't "Look at me" so much as "Look at this": Love! Drama! Sex! Tension! War! Tears! More tears! What the hell is the dude from Step Up and G.I. Joe doing here? A lot, as it turns out. »
