I’m feeling a bit angry this week that there’s a sequel to a flick that I utterly detested. (See the remake of "Clash of the Titans" and it’s now needless sequel "Wrath of the Titans!") So I’m going with an outing about bitter angry man fresh from prison looking to wreak a little havoc – welcome to Forgotten Friday Flick! The pick of choice this week is from the brilliant mind of underappreciated writer/director George Armitage. A funny, nasty and all around engaging little nugget complete with vicious violence, dead Hare Krishnas and home cooked pork chops. We’re talking about the unf...

The year was 1962, John F. Kennedy was President of the United States and the cold war with Russia was in full swing as the world witnessed the Cuban Missile Crisis. Also in 1962, Marilyn Monroe died of a drug overdose at the age of 36 and Johnny Carson took over the duties of "The Tonight Show." Landmark movies that hit the big screen in '62 included "Lawrence of Arabia" and "To Kill a Mockingbird." The Academy Award winner for best picture that year was none other than "West Side Story."

We think you'll be surprised at how young many of today's popular celebrities look who were born in ...

Perhaps you've heard about "Assassination of a High School President," the Bruce Willis/Mischa Barton movie that darkly satirizes high school politics. While much of the high school set is eagerly anticipating the film's theatrical release in early 2009, early reviews from its January screening at Sundance have been mixed. MTV has praised it as a cross between "Rushmore" and "The Usual Suspects," while Variety labeled it an "uninventive," "muddled parody." Only time will tell if the movie becomes an instant classic or ends up in the bargain DVD bin next to "Encino Man."

There has been...

Actress Jennifer Jason Leigh wants reporters to stop writing about her age - because it's stopping her from landing good roles.

The 45-year-old believes the more people know about actors and actresses, the harder it becomes for them to take on different characters - particularly as they get older.

She explains, "I don't think your career is over when you turn 40, but it doesn't help when people's ages are constantly written about. I think the more you demystify someone, the harder it is to believe they are someone else."

Actress Jennifer Jason Leigh would have performed fellatio on actor Vincent Gallo if she'd agreed to take the role Chloe Sevigny played in controversial movie The Brown Bunny.
