What do Paul Newman, Steven Spielberg, and Jennifer Aniston (pictured) have in common? Why, theyre all members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences! And shes certainly not the only prospective newbie Oscar voter: Boldface names likeSteve Carell,J.J. while the devil on my left shoulder is grumbling, Um, Jennifer Aniston? Cmon, get real. Im really torn, PopWatchers! (I also probably need to see a shrink, or something.) And Im downright shocked that Christopher Plummer was never brought into Hollywoods elite club....

Then I realized thatno, in fact, it was Sunday. And this was Presidents Day Weekend. And I wasntworking on Monday. Credit: Paul Michaud Oh, it was. And it was good. And you know what? I love the wayLez Girlsis already careening offthe rails. Of course, Im hard-pressed to tell you exactly how far along theyare in filming this thing. Wasnt that final shot funny and disturbing at the sametime? soyoull have to forgive this bad habit of asking if people look like someone otherthan themselves....

The sexy blackjack saga defied the odds to unseat ‘‘Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who!’' with a $24.1 mil weekend win It must have been in the cards. The blackjack drama21overcame big odds at the box office to win the weekend race and unseat formidable two-time championDr. Seuss Horton Hears a Who! Kate Bosworth and Jim Sturgess young-skewing gambling saga grossed $23.7 million, according to Sundays estimates. But, considering21s merely decent B+ CinemaScore grade, will all those guys stick around next weekend?...

So who should be resting easy this week, and whos at risk? Okay, youre right, that description actually fits Amanda Overmyer. And the guys amusingly bewildered interview persona is a sweet oasis in a desert of exceedingly lame clip packages. (Side note: Did Randy seem to think theBreakfast Clubsoundtrack staple was sung by INXS?) NEXT: The stripper crisis And then there were three. Im not sure it matters that much....

You cant actually adopt him. Hes always got a kerchief or knit cap on his head! And the leather cuffs! Did you see the leather cuffs? How about the scraggly facial hair? Heres a close-up of his bandanna: It says, Heal the sick, raise the dead. Only a rocker would wear that, okay? Anyway, who cares how much rock cred Robbies got? (Side note: Paulas first ballet recital was set to Moon River....

So adieu, Antonella! Keep your chin up, and your clothing on! Who knows, maybe youll score a hosting gig somewhere in the basic-cable universe. But let us not digress and instead get back to the source of my anger, America. That was cruel, America. Cruel to the infinitely more deserving Sabrina. And cruel to yourselves, America. Youll have no one to blame for the nightmarish flashbacks but yourselves! The more I think about it, though, the less surprised I am that Haley advanced....

Blake was kicked around by the judges tonight, but on the other hand, he underperformed. And I still kind of miss Melinda but not nearly as much as I do Elliott. On most matters, that is. Why not just drop the last w in the song title and call it This Is MyNo? But the last two-thirds of the performance was strong and sure especially that massive, victory-sealing glory note....

The Cally-cide gave us a window into what had previously been a wallflower of a woman. In her words, shes perfect. In essence, shes living la vida Magneto (from X-Men, natch). And that way lies madness, even for a machine. Machines can go mad, too, right? Oh, and the peanut-butter-and-jelly-ness of pain and pleasure. And so his eulogy for Calandra Henderson Tyrol (aw, Calandras an awful pretty name) was moving....

I guess, sometimes, people who are delusional cant see the delusion from within. And I guess it takes blood to snap some folks out of it. Otherwise, how does one explain Karas sudden burst of logic? (Man, that kneecapping was pulpy, wasnt it? The twin stories ofthis weeks episodeworked together far better than last weeks pair. Perhaps thats because one of them advanced the plot while the other dove deep into character....

Meanwhile, Tom Cruise scored one of the worst debuts of his career withLions for Lambs. 1 further down the road. As for what happened withFred Claus, well, clearly that combination ofpoor reviewsand stiff competition fromBee Moviestung. The movie earned just $19.2 mil, significantly below most expectations. Then there was Tom CruisesLions for Lambs. Dont worry, I wont ignore it although audiences sure did. Thepoorly reviewedpolitical drama earned a mere $6.7 mil at No....

The first winter season kicks off with an all-singles house and some forced hookups. Are you liking the new cast and new rules? Who do you want to see go the distance or go home early? Credit: Monty Brinton Big Brother premiere: What did you think? Are you liking the soul-mate theme and the forced coupling? Which pair do you think has the best chance of winning? Which will wind up doing more damage to each other than to the other team?...

If you press links we provide, we may receive compensation. April leaves the building – don’t forget me, Ollie! Soon after, Ollie intoned, Game…on. See, I thought the game alreadyhadbegun, andwason. In fact, I have a vague memory of every single contestant saying it at least 15 times. Am I thinking of another season? Oh, wait, no, Im not:Will you houseguests like stop saying, Game on!? Wow, Im glad I got that off my chest....
