Should This Album Art Be Banned?
Though their album Hey Ma just hit stores in the U.K. on April 8, the cover art for the album is already stirring up controversy. Depicting a baby reaching toward a gun with baby blocks spelling out the album name, the idea for the cover arose from a news item about a 10-month-old American baby obtaining a firearms certificate.

The Box: An Inadequate Package to Unwrap
I so wanted The Box to be a worthy successor to Donnie Darko, director Richard Kelly's first film and much-appreciated cult fave. Unfortunately, I didn't exactly get my wish.
The Box is a highly stylized, good-looking thriller, from the retro 1976 Virginia setting to the Barbie and Ken looks of leads Cameron Diaz and James Marsden.

Not a Joke: James Franco To Appear on General Hospital
It's not April Fool's, I have not started abusing substances, this is an actual news story: James Franco is set to guest star on daytime soap opera General Hospital.
Oh and it's not just some walk-on role as a favor or a dare: Franco will star in a multi-episode arc, which will last for about two months, and he'll play a "mysterious character" (of course he will). What's more, he apparently approached General Hospital himself with the idea.

Movie Preview: Adam Sandler and Chris Rock in Grown Ups
I've been watching over the past several months as the cast roster for Grown Ups continued to add more of Adam Sandler's previous SNL colleagues and close friends — Tim Meadows, Maya Rudolph, Colin Quinn. It's like he decided to make a project where he could invite everyone he knows to jump on board and have fun. And the cast really does appear to be having a good time in the trailer — I'm just not 100 percent sure I'm right there with them.
