Critic Says Hollywood Abuses Arab Bogeyman

One critic is getting very critical of Hollywood's portrayal of Arabs and Muslims in film and television. Jack Shaheen, an American of Lebanese decent, told Reuters that in America, where it is politically incorrect to make derogatory comments about other groups like African Americans or Jews, there is no social taboo against reinforcing damaging Arab or Muslim stereotypes. In his latest book, Read more

Box Office: It Pays to Have a Game Plan

The Farrelly Brothers and Ben Stiller are left broken hearted today after their bawdy comedy The Heartbreak Kid failed to draw in the masses at the theaters. Taking home just $14 million its opening weekend, The Heartbreak Kid came in second place at the box office, behind the family friendly Game Plan starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. The Game Plan is enjoying its second weekend of being No. 1 Read more

Jennifer & Jamie Are Still Reigning Over The Kingdom

After going fancy in Paris and London, Jennifer and Jamie ditched their formal wear for a photocall in Berlin for The Kingdom. This marks the fourth country these two have hit in the last week and we can't even imagine how exhausted they must be. At least they probably got lots of quality bonding time in together, although we know Jennifer would rather be with her family or in her hometown. Read more

Jennifer's The Red Carpet Queen Of The Kingdom

Jennifer has just been killing it with gorgeous color out promoting The Kingdom! From green to purple to pink to orange to red to this blue last night in London — stunning, stunning, stunning. Fab wants to know which of Jennifer's looks is your favorite and I just can't decide. Jamie Foxx (who looks slick himself) is a lucky man with such a beautiful lady as his premiere companion.

Which Jennifer Garner The Kingdom Look is Most Fab?

Jennifer is usually not on my fashion radar. What can I say — when the girl is dressed down, she is dressed way down. But when the girl is dressed up she is dressed to the nines and with the premiere of The Kingdom, her stylist has been working overtime. And I must say: nice work. What I like about Jennifer's looks over the past couple weeks is the color variety — there is not one LBD in the Read more

Jennifer Goes Hot Pink In Paris

Jennifer Garner definitely turned a few heads in her hot pink mermaid number at the Paris premiere of The Kingdom. Seriously, between the color of her dress and that huge grin on her face we barely even notice Jamie Foxx standing there next to her. That being said, Jennifer claims she would've been even happier to skip Paris entirely and just hang out in her hometown of Charleston, West Read more

Box Office: The Game Plan Lands No. 1 Place

In a surprising turn of events — even for people behind the movie itself — The Game Plan, a PG-rated family-friendly flick starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, came in at No. 1 at the box office this weekend. The Disney movie far outpaced the action-war film The Kingdom, which took in $17.7 million and the No. 2 spot. Variety speculates whether The Kingdom's weak opening is an indication of Read more

The Kingdom: Comes Too Late

We’ve been talking a lot about the onset of the fall movie season. Gone are the hot days of summer and with them the never-ending sequels, gross-out Judd Apatow comedies and big-budget action films. And as the weather gets cooler, suddenly some of the movies get smarter. The Kingdom tries to parade itself as a fall movie. It wants to be clever and politically relevant, but in the end it’s Read more

Do You Want to See The Kingdom?

This Friday finds Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman and Chris Cooper starring in The Kingdom, a war movie set in modern-day Saudi Arabia. After a terrorist bombing of a Western housing compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, an elite team of FBI agents is formed to locate the mastermind behind the bombing. I'm going to see The Kingdom this week, though I wonder if a movie about terrorism in Read more

The Kingdom Comes To LA

Jennifer Garner was the lady in red at the LA premiere of The Kingdom last night. She is just gorgeous when she glams it up. Will and Jada (in bright pink shorts formal wear - yowza) came out to support their friends' premiere and ham it up with Jamie Foxx on the red carpet. Jennifer's two time costar Jason Bateman was in the house as well to show off the more action packed of their fall Read more
