Easy A
'Easy A' stars Emma Stone, Amanda Bynes, and Penn Badgley. The film focuses on Olive (Emma Stone) who attends Ojai High School in present day California. Olive is a 'nobody.' The film starts off with her narrating about how she is so invincible, that google earth wouldn't be able to find if she were disguised as a 10 foot building. She basically has no reputation and her pushy obnoxious friend, Rhiannon (Aly Milchalka) wants her to go camping for the weekend with her and her family. But, since Rhiannon's family is super weird, Olive makes up this story that she has a date. When Monday morning arrives Rhiannon is convinced Olive lost her virginity to the made up guy and begs Olive for details. Since she is the most annoying, obnoxious person ever, Olive makes up how she lost her virginity, with lie after lie after lie. But, they soon discover they weren't alone in the bathroom and Marianne (Amanda Bynes) comes out of the stall, judging Olive for not waiting til marriage because Marianne is one with Jesus. She spreads rumors like wild fire and now guys are starting to notice Olive. But, one guy in particular, Brandon (Dan Byrd) is a homosexual teen and begs Olive to pretend that they had sex so he can stop being tortured everyday for people thinking he is gay. Once Olive lies, everyone wants a piece and things turn ugly.

Live Action Pinocchio Movie!!!

'I'm Still Here' is fake!!!
Director Casey Affleck has recently stated that his documentary, 'I'm Still Here' starring Joaquin Phoenix is in fact fake. Affleck said they "wanted to create a space. You believe what's happening is real." And after some angry reviews surfaced he stated, "I never intended to trick anybody, the idea of a quote, hoax, unquote, never entered my mind."
He also said that David Letterman was not in on the joke when Phoenix, showed up in character as a complete wreck, and left Letterman to sum up the interview with: "Joaquin, I'm sorry you couldn't be here tonight."
But, Phoenix will return to "Late Show with David Letterman" on September 22, as himself and hopefully redeem himself and regain his fan base perhaps?
Affleck also said that one part of the movie was real, which was "a snippet of a home movie that showed Phoenix and his very young siblings performing, Jackson Five style, on the streets of Los Angeles."

Andrew Garfield on Spiderman!!!
British actor Andrew Garfield will be portraying Peter Parker in the upcoming still-untitled 'Spider-Man' reboot by Marc Webb, but before the movie starts shooting, Garfield has two new movies coming out in the next month, Mark Romanek's 'Never Let Me Go' and David Fincher's 'The Social Network' and he also hopes to do some theater or other work before then too.
The Hollywood Reporter, was the first to ask him about getting the part of Spiderman:
"I have been waiting for this phone call for 24 years, for someone to call me up and say, "Hey, we want you to pretend to be a character that you’ve always wanted to be all your life, and we’re going to do it with cool cameras and cool effects and you’re going to feel like you’re swinging through New York City. Do you want to do that?" [laughs] “Let me just consult with my seven-year old self and see what he thinks...” So my seven-year-old self started screaming in my soul and saying, This is what we’ve been waiting for. Like every young boy who feels stronger on the inside than they look on the outside, any skinny boy basically who wishes their muscles matched their sense of injustice, God, it’s just the stuff that dreams are made of, for sure. It’s a true f*cking honor to be part of this symbol that I actually think is a very important symbol and it’s meant a great deal to me, and it continues to mean something to people. So yeah, I feel like I’ve been preparing for it for a while. Ever since Halloween when I was four years old and I wore my first Spider-Man costume."
Shooting starts in December for the untitled 'Spiderman' reboot.
