It was just a few days ago that Demi Moore dropped out of the porn biopic Lovelace after being hospitalized for "exhaustion," but it looks like filmmakers Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman may be close to finding their replacement already. Us Weekly reports that Weeds star Mary Louise Parker is being considered as a possibility to…

There's plenty of good stuff in today's TV Bits, including new trailers for HBO's Luck and Showtime's House of Lies, which I'm hoping will help the one bit of really bad news go down a bit easier: NBC's benching its highly praised but under-watched Community. After the jump: NBC puts Community on hiatus and picks…

I know there's resistance to Red based on the fact that the film looks quite a bit different from the Warren Ellis comics upon which it is based. I haven't read the comic, so can only approach the film based on what I see -- and I really enjoy the stuff we've been shown so…

On the day that a McSweeney's parody/recontextualizing of some of Allen Gisnberg's most famous lines made a little ripple on the internet, it is appropriate that a trailer arrives for Howl, the film that chronicles the creation of the poem Howl and the obscenity trial that eventually followed its publication. James Franco stars as Ginsberg,…

Eventually, AMC will release something for The Walking Dead that I think doesn't look great, but it hasn't happened yet. There's a good piece of art to promote the show's debut at Comic Con, which you can see in part above, from IGN. See the whole image after the break, along with the first character…

I would never have guessed that the director of Flightplan and The Time Traveler's Wife might turn out the most entertaining-looking under the radar comic book adaptation of this summer. But I grinned all the way through the trailer for Robert Schwentke's Red, which adapts Warren Ellis' graphic novel about a group of retired CIA…

The opening night feature film of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival was Howl, a nonfiction drama described as a "movie about a poem." You might recall that we woke up at 6:30am and trenched in four feet of snow to try to score tickets to the premiere, and failed. We somehow got in... and in…

We haven't received much word on the adaptation of the Warren Ellis comic miniseries Red for some time now. Last we heard back in April, Morgan Freeman was joining the project, which already had Bruce Willis attached.

Have you recovered from the shocking last scene of Weeds' season finale yet? In what appeared to us to be a grisly hat tip to Heathers, the show's entire family/criminal dynamic changed in a flash. It was a series-altering event that positions a certain character front-and-center for the sixth season. After the jump, we'll discuss…

At the end of our previous Weeds Session, we pondered why the Botwin clan, and specifically Nancy, were not taking day offs from their, um, non-jobs to patron a shooting range. The stakes in season five more than necessitate practicing self-defense across the board. And, c'mon, surely, Cesar has a few pistolas or an AK-47…

How long has it been since the last Weeds Session? Six months? Full Disclosure: We've been hesitant to turn on our television for fear of the sixth season of Entourage; seriously, that is the most dreadful show of the year. Doug Ellin might as well DM Tommy Wiseau to write and direct the next planned…

The previous three episodes of Weeds were the breeziest of the season and decidedly welcome after the brick-cold start. However, by now viewers are conditioned to expect another hellish crescendo to fall upon the resilient Botwins. It's like dysfunctional clockwork.
