Transformers fans were all a-flutter earlier this week with the news that Paramount has set the date for the third movie: July 1, 2011. Though neither Shia LaBeouf nor director Michael Bay was confirmed for the third movie (and there's still no writer), apparently "Paramount insiders . . . said the studio wanted to claim the date before a competitor did, considering that the 2011 summer release Read more
Paramount is not only trying to dip into the video-game world, but it's also going after a female audience by introducing three games inspired by girlie movies — Clueless, Mean Girls, and Pretty in Pink. These first few games will be developed in conjunction with Legacy Interactive. No word on what console the games will be designed for or what the user experience will be like just yet, Read more
As soon as I saw Cloverfield I knew immediately that there would be sequels. Making one stand-alone video of a Manhattan monster attack means there could be any number of other videos out there with similar footage — from the New York attack, or from other cities the monster demolished. Basically, all they need to come up with are the various reasons for people to be using a handheld camera. Read more
It's been eight long years since the original, but Anchorman 2 is so on, you guys. The movie is finally coming out in 2013, but two short teasers are here — and as brief as they are, they're both pretty funny. Will Ferrell's legendary Ron Burgundy is back on deck with his fellow news anchors, Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), Champ Kind (David Koechner), and Brick Tamland (Steve Carell), and as usual, Read more

Everyone loves a good Godfather quote. People even quote the movie in other movies, like in You've Got Mail when Tom Hanks told Meg Ryan to "go to the mattresses." And that other time in You've Got Mail when Tom Hanks was all, "What day of the week is it? 'Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday." Solid gold. Check out the bits we find ourselves quoting below and let us know what your favorite lines Read more
Will Ferrell has given us so many amazing movie quotes over the years, but it's important to look back and remember the SNL spin-off flick where it all started. A Night at the Roxbury was one of his first starring roles, as he and Chris Kattan play privileged heirs to a fake plant empire by day and Richard Grieco-praising club rats by night. Let's just say that Haddaway's "What Is Love" has never Read more
Tomorrow marks the 100th anniversay of the Titanic tragedy. After leaving England on April 10, 1912, the liner hit an iceberg on April 14. It's been 15 years since the film of the same name set box office records, and just recently returned to theaters with its 3D rerelease. Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio sprang to fame as Jack and Rose in 1997 and later reunited in 2008's Revolutionary Road. Read more
