Review and Watch : Fantastic Mr. Fox Film

2009-11-25T05:50:00.000-08:00

Review in a Hurry: Awkward-humor auteur Wes Anderson, Oscar-winner George Clooney, and Willy Wonka creator Roald Dahl come together for a stop-motion animated feature that doesn't seem like it should make any sense at all—but it totally does. Fantastic, indeed.

The Bigger Picture: Fantastic Mr. Fox is one-of-a-kind and one of the year's best, though it definitely has echoes of other themes that are currently prevalent.

Like Up, it has animals that speak English, yet can suddenly, abruptly revert to idiosyncratic animal behavior, usually to humorous effect.

Like Where the Wild Things Are, it takes a beloved children's book and stays mostly true to it, while at the same time being very much a piece with the director's unique style and way of looking at the world.

But unlike Wes Anderson's other attempts to branch out—the clunky attempts at action sequences in The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou come to mind—Fantastic Mr. Fox is a rollicking, kid-friendly animated adventure, albeit one full of ironic dialogue and bizarre non sequiturs that will fly over the young'uns' heads.

Our protagonists are anthropomorphic subterranean mammals who live much like people, wearing clothes, holding down jobs and so forth, but also behaving according to their nature, which is to say that Mr. Fox steals and kills chickens from nearby farms. Birds, it seems, aren't anthropomorphic in this world; they're food. And domesticated dogs simply act like dogs, not people. Plus, foxes and badgers speak and write in English that can be understood by humans. Yet it all works. Maybe not super logically under geek-level analysis, but instinctively, on a kid level, sure.

Mr. Fox is voiced by George Clooney, in a casting nod clearly designed to draw mileage from his Ocean's heist movies. Retired from the farm-raiding business after he inadvertently puts his wife (Meryl Streep) in danger, he writes a newspaper column that nobody reads. Hoping to improve his family's life, he stretches his finances to buy a large tree house, but the new place just so happens to be right next door to three of the richest and most nasty farmers in all of...England? It's hard to tell, since all the animals speak like Americans, while the evil farmers, led by a gun-toting bully coincidentally named Mr. Bean (Michael Gambon) remain solidly British.

The book was of course set in Dahl's native country, but the book was also relatively short. Anderson's film adds an entire new third act, as well as a subplot involving the rivalry between Fox's awkward son and his athletic cousin. The Dahl estate are usually control freaks about fealty to the text, so it's interesting (and cool) that they gave this a pass.

While absolutely an Anderson film, it's arguably his most commercial feature to date, and certainly his laugh-out-loud funniest. In many of his movies, the humor is such that you don't quite know if you're meant to laugh or not, while here there is no doubt.

But it does feature many familiar voices from his usual gang: Bill Murray, Willem Dafoe, Jason Schwartzman and even Anderson himself does a little voice-acting.

Recap Score and Watch Video of The Season 9 finale of Dancing with the Stars

2009-11-24T08:32:00.000-08:00

The Season 9 finale of Dancing with the Stars is finally upon us. Mya, Donny Osmond and Kelly Osbourne face off one final time with three dances: a freestyle, an unlearned dance and the Mega Mix, a medley comprised of three styles in which they will perform the same routine. Who raised their game? Find out below!

This is it, folks. Three final routines for the books. Yeah, yeah, the Mega Mix is new and all, but all eyes are on their freestyles. We all know the freestyle makes it or breaks it for everyone. It's the first final for Louis and Dmitry, so it'll be interesting to see what they come up with against perennial bridesmaid Kym, now a three-time finalist.

Round 1: Unlearned Dance
Kelly Osbourne and Louis van Amstel: Argentine Tango
Carrie Ann drops by rehearsals and makes Kelly uncomfortable with her advice to be more suggestive in the dance. Louis told me they may make out in this number or do something of the sort to stick it to Bruno, who wanted more romance from Kelly last week. There is no makeout session, but Kelly did an admirable job of upping the intimacy quotient. The problem is they have such a great chemistry as BFFs that it's kind of hard to picture them as something more here. Kelly's footwork isn't as sharp and precise as it needs to be, and the intensity seems to come and go. They do an amazing lift sequence. Yeah, I don't know what that's called, but it looked awesome. Ozzy likes it. Denise likes it. Len says she epitomizes what the show is about and thinks she "danced right up there." Bruno says her free hand was a little loose and wants a little more sensuality. Carrie Ann is "so proud" of her, especially after seeing their very un-intimate rehearsal.
Score: 26

Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: Paso Doble
Len visits Mya and Dima. Duh! Who else would? The curmudgeon felt their initial routine was too lackluster and "piddly" so he gives them a good ol' kick in the butt, metaphorically speaking, of course. This is the fastest version of "We Will Rock You" I've ever heard that wasn't sung by the Chipmunks. In any case, there's nothing "piddly" about this anymore. It's fast, spunky, aggressive and full of 'tude. Now onto more important matters: I covet Mya's boots. Jane Seymour likes it. Or maybe she wants her boots too. Bruno says the power of Mya was unleashed for all to admiyah! Carrie Ann calls her the queen of the paso doble. Coach Len says this is up there with his favorite paso of all seasons — Mel and Maks'.
Score: 30

Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson: Cha-cha
Bruno, with his strategically unbuttoned shirt, wants Donny to "stop doing Vegas." So, Donny is wearing the silver version of his purple samba outfit from last week. Recycling is good, kids. I'm not sure what Bruno did, but Donny suddenly has hips and is workin' it like it's his job. Well, I guess it is for now. There's rhythm and pop and such easygoing, fluid motion. The walking section in the middle kind of takes you out of the routine a bit, but overall it's a great little sassy number. Marie likes it, and so does Gilles. Carrie Ann says Donny's hips busted out, but points out a tiny flub with his hands. Len calls it a true cha-cha. Bruno gives Donny props for being a professional during their rehearsal time together.
Score: 27

Round 2: Mega Mix
Like with many things this season, this is a brand spankin' new segment. It's a medley with three dance styles choreographed by Nick Kosovich and Karina Smirnoff. Everyone will dance at the same time and perform the same routine so we can judge them side by side. Kelly gets overwhelmed and was resigned to second or third place at first. Kym points out that Mya and Kelly could be Donny's daughters. Kelly Osbourne Osmond? This is like a more cohesive version of the mambo marathon (which, yes, I know exists in real ballroom competitions), but I have no idea where to focus for the first 30 seconds. Kelly seems the most tentative out of everyone, and Louis has trouble ripping off her skirt as they go into the samba. Seeing her next to Mya, who is just doing what Mya does best, the disparity in skill level is clear. Since Donny's a guy, it's hard to compare him against Kelly and Mya, but he's looking pretty solid with his guy routine. There's nothing egregiously wrong, but nothing fantastic about it either. Len says it's too difficult to call and calls it a draw. Bruno says Mya can samba, loves Kelly's waltz and thought Donny was one of the pros at certain points. Carrie Ann is impressed at how Donny kept up with the pro guys, loves Mya's samba-ing hips and Kelly's grace.

Rankings
3rd: Kelly and Louis
2nd: Donny and Kym
1st: Mya and Dmitry

Round 3: Freestyle
Kelly Osbourne and Louis van Amstel
Louis picked "I Will Survive" for their freestyle to symbolize Kelly's journey. Kelly's feet are still giving her trouble, and she scowls at doing a handstand because she'd look like a beached whale upside down. They forego the handstand, but that's probably a good thing considering the spill she took afer a spin cycle lift from Louis. She laughs it off and gets right back into it, which is nice to see, especially after Donny's breakdown last week. The disco-inspired routine is fun and peppy, but there's nothing technically challenging. Girl sure knows how to get the peeps behind her though. Bruno says she never looked more beautiful and loves that she captured the glitz and glamour of the era, where sometimes people fell on the floor. Carrie Ann calls her a true survivor for tripping and getting back up. Len thoroughly enjoyed watching her.
Score: 24

Mya and Dmitry Chaplin
Dima wants to take a page out of Hairspray; Mya suggests Vegas because she wants to take more risks and finds Hairspray too safe. They agree on Hairspray in the end, and Mya's surprised the routine is not as conservative as she first dismissed it to be. The routine may not be conservative in terms of technique, but it is in terms of flair. This feels like just a regular ol' midseason jitterbug or jive from Mya. She doesn't miss a beat throughout (no pun intended), but there's nothing spectacular about it. You keep waiting for some great to highlight all of her crazy skills and sultry self, but there was nada. Too safe, Dima. Is is the end of the road for Mya? Carrie Ann calls it high-energy, fun, but not outstanding. Len agrees with Carrie Ann, saying that there was a sameness throughout. Bruno, ditto.
Score: 27

Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson
Kym's styling a Broadway routine for Donny. Good call. Now's the time to put all the hamminess out there. Donny says he wants to take risks and win it because "if you had a sister named Marie and she was going to rub it in your face the rest of your life, you'd want to win it too." They start off at the top at the stairs in robes and come out totally razzle-dazzling. This the ultimate routine for the ultimate showman. It's not over-the-top astonishing, but it's a surefire crowd-pleaser and full of pizzazz and moxie. The routine is still relatively safe, but there's an extra little oomph there. Props goes to Kym too for crafting a great freestyle perfectly suited to her partner for the third time. Len loves it. Bruno calls it Mr. Showbusiness at his best. Carrie Ann welcomes Donny to the Dancing Freestyle Hall of Fame. Does that means Marie's is in the Hall of Shame?
Score: 30

I must say Donny and Kym's glee at their first perfect 30 is sweet to see. All the freestyles were flat compared to what we've been treated with in seasons past. Yeah, there's usually at least one dud, but there's also usually at least one total showstopper.

Overall, Mya's still on top with 87, but Donny's right on her heels with 85. Kelly brings up the rear with 76.

What did you think? Did you like the Mega Mix? Were the freestyles underwhelming? Did Dmitry just cost Mya the win? Did Louis' spin look like he pooped out Kelly? Will Kym go 0-for-3 in finals? Can Donny get family bragging rights? Are you excited for the Jerry Rice-Michael Irvin face-off Tuesday? Who's your pick to take home the Mirrorball?

Adam Lambert Simulate Oral Sex at AMAs

2009-11-23T18:18:00.000-08:00

Adam Lambert is making no apologies for his racy performance during Sunday's American Music Awards.

While closing the show with his new single "For Your Entertainment," the American Idol alum, 27, simulated fellatio with a male dancer, kissed male keyboardist Tommy Ratliff, grabbed his crotch and flipped off the crowd. (According to Rolling Stone, Lambert didn't clear the kiss with anyone in advance; he told CNN the smooch happened "in the moment.")

His performance was edited for the west coast feed of the awards show.

"You know honestly, if I offended some people... it's apples and oranges. I'm not an artist that does things for every single person," he told Access Hollywood. "I believe in artistic freedom and expression, I believe in honoring the lyrics of a song, and those lyrics aren't really for everybody either."

He also said he considered editing his performance "discrimination."

"There's a big double standard, female pop artists have been doing things provocative like that for years, and the fact that I'm a male, and I'll be edited and discriminated against could be a problem," he explained.

Added Lambert, "People are scared and it's really sad, I just wish people could open their minds up and enjoy things, it's all for a laugh, it's really not that big of a deal."

Still, some fans and celebs don't agree.

"Did Adam Lambert just grind some dude's head in his crotch... TO MY NIECE... GO TO BED NOW!" The View's Sherri Shepherd Twittered. "And did Adam Lambert slip the tongue to one of his dancers???? Whoa... Celibate woman here... turning off TV now..."

Carrie Prejean's Nude Photos and Sex Tapes

2009-11-13T17:38:00.000-08:00

There are Miss California Carrie Prejean's nude photos and sex tapes.

PHOTOS: Miss California Carrie Prejean

It’s the most shocking turn yet in a scandal that has continued to follow the woman whose anti-gay marriage stance led to a national controversy and pitted her against pageant organizers.

Stripped of her crown, Prejean sued the Miss California USA pageant but reportedly settled after the sex tape surfaced. She called the sex tape the biggest mistake of her life.

VIDEO: Carrie Prejean Throws Temper Tantrum On Larry King Live

Now a RadarOnline.com investigation has uncovered that there are SEVEN more “biggest mistakes” of her life – all of them solo performances, just like the one sex tape that the religious beauty queen has admitted to. And there are 30 photos of Carrie, most topless, some showing everything, and most taken by Carrie using her reflection in a mirror.

PHOTOS: Carrie Prejean Swimsuit Competition

On one tape Carrie is wearing just a flowing white blouse as she touches her own body in an alluring manner. Carrie can be heard moaning on a few of the tapes.

In her newly released book Carrie wrote, “God gave us our bodies, and it’s perfectly right that we use them in ways where we can give glory to God by making our bodies, our temples of the Holy Spirit, strong and fast.”

'New Moon' movie : Classic romantic triangle

2009-11-13T10:44:00.000-08:00

The last issue of Vanity Fair is about the 'New Moon' movie, "Pretty-boy vampires?"

Time for a seismic shift in the Twilight heartthrob universe as a different type of sexy beast takes over when New Moon rises in theaters Nov. 20.

The scene that seals the deal arrives about a third of the way through the second gothic romance based on author Stephenie Meyer's cash machine of a supernatural soap opera.

TRAILER: Viewing the 'New Moon'
GEOMETRY OF LOVE: Triangles through the years

Distraught teen heroine Bella (Kristen Stewart) has become quite the daredevil ever since bloodsucking beau Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) decided he was no good for her and ran away. Seeking an adrenaline rush, she ends up sprawled on the side of the road and bleeding after crashing her motorbike.

To the rescue is childhood friend Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), the sweet Native American lad who has bulked up into a buff Adonis ever since his werewolf urges started to kick in.

When he suddenly pulls off his T-shirt to tend to Bella's wounds, beefcake is definitely served.

"Did you know you're sort of beautiful?" she asks while dizzily gazing upon him with fresh eyes.

As Lautner, 17, speaks on the phone, you can practically feel him blushing. "It's kind of awkward for me and a little embarrassing," he says of exposing his new physique, the result of packing on 30 pounds of muscle to continue playing Jacob. "But it was what was required for the character."

Where once there were two, now there are three as a love triangle begins to form between Bella and her potential monster mates. And, despite the horror-flick trappings and inherent dangers, the conflict in the Twilight saga is as classic as anything found in Jane Austen's novels.

Edward is the first love, an obsession fueled by the flames of desire and the torture of heartache when he isn't near. Jacob is the loyal buddy, the guy you're at ease with and who knows you better than anyone, who slowly evolves into something much more.

Choosing teams

It's a fantasy that many find irresistible. "We want to be fought over," says relationship expert Gilda Carle. "It makes us feel more like a prize. And a suitor wants to fight over us, so he feels he has won a prize, something not so easily gotten. In real life, triangles are horrible. But by vicariously enjoying them in books and movies, we can deal with them more appropriately."

And more competitively, too. Ever since New Moon was published in 2006, fans have been declaring themselves members of either Team Edward or Team Jacob.

Attachments have only deepened now that Edward and Jacob have been made flesh on the big screen by attractive actors. "It's been amazing to watch this group of relative unknowns now on the front of magazines on a weekly basis," says TwilightMOMs media director Kirsten Starkweather, 40, of Clovis, Calif. "A lot of people who didn't care for Jacob in the book have changed their opinion of him because of how Taylor plays him. I do think this movie will bring Jacob and Taylor to the forefront."

There are pros and cons on both sides. Edward is an immortal who looks like a brooding male model, will never age even though he's over 100 years old, dresses like a rock-star poet and whose skin sparkles in the sun. Drawbacks: A "vegan" vampire who feeds on the blood of animals, he is no fun in restaurants. And he's icy to the touch.

Jacob is a blue-collar high schooler who will stop aging as he continues to shapeshift, has animal magnetism to spare, is half-naked most of the time since his body temperature is 108.9 degrees and is a gifted mechanic. Drawbacks: He has a nasty temper that causes him to change into a raging wolf the size of a horse. And he isn't Edward.

"New Moon is really a lay-up to the triangle," says Melissa Rosenberg, the screenwriter for all the films based on the book franchise so far, including next summer's Eclipse. "Edward is the ultimate guy in Twilight, and there is a massive following for him. The challenge of New Moon is to set up the third leg of the triangle, with Jacob being strong enough competition for him. That way, Bella's choice in Eclipse is an actual dilemma. But in New Moon, it's the audience who is torn."

Pattinson, 23, the bed-headed Brit who plays Edward, jumped out early in the cover-boy sweepstakes after the first film took a nearly $400 million bite out of the worldwide box office. Jacob, a mere human then, had only a couple of scenes. But Lautner is already catching up, especially after his maybe-girlfriend, country cutie Taylor Swift, blew him a kiss and mouthed his name while hosting Saturday Night Live.

Growing charms

In New Moon, "Edward does make a stupid mistake by leaving Bella, and that allows Jacob in," says director Chris Weitz. "You can understand why Bella starts to develop feelings for him. He's the right man at a frightening time for her, and his devotion is touching. Even die-hard Edward people will understand."

Stewart, 19, certainly enjoyed the change of pace on camera. "Both of them make me feel completely different," she says of her co-stars. "Taylor is an impulsive actor, not Method at all. It's very easy to smile with him. With Rob, we both tend to worry and over-analyze everything."

As for any rivalry between the two male leads, "I think Rob enjoyed teasing Taylor about his exercise regimen," Weitz says. But Pattinson appears more than ready to share the paparazzi-propelled burden of Twilight mania. "Rob would like me to say, 'This is Taylor's film. Rob isn't in it at all.' But subtraction equals multiplication in this case. It will create more hysteria, not less."

Lautner says there is only one team when it comes to making the movies. "We all get along great and we're in this together. Rob did a terrific job of bringing Edward alive. I just hope fans believe I did the same for Jacob."

Even Twilight's creator isn't above playing favorites, however.

While she was bringing Jacob to life on the page, Meyer herself couldn't help but fall for his charms. The character initially existed in the first book as a device to explain the tense relationship between his Quileute tribe and the Cullen clan to Bella, a newcomer to Forks, Wash. He grew into a central character, however, in New Moon, and Meyer even went back and put more of him and his father in Twilight while it was in the editing stage.

As she wrote on her website: "Jacob was my first experience with a character taking over – a minor character developing such roundness and life that I couldn't keep him locked inside a tiny role. ... Even when Jacob only appeared in Chapter 6 of Twilight, he was so alive. I liked him. More than I should for such a small part."

Casting drama

Still, the werewolf has been the underdog from the start, even if Bella would have to make the sacrifice of becoming a vampire herself to stay with Edward.

"I became Team Jacob in early 2007, and back then, it wasn't as easy to find a fellow Jacobian," says Kat Johnson, 39, of Phoenix, who oversees the almost month-old QuileuteWolfPack.com. "When we did find each other, we clung to one another for support, steadfast in the belief that Jacob is a better and healthier choice for Bella. There is a satisfaction that comes from rooting for the character who is up against all odds, for his victory is that much sweeter."

Adding to that feeling is how Lautner was almost dropped from the New Moon cast because Weitz, who took over for Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke, didn't think he could fill out Jacob's superhuman dimensions.

"When Taylor was first cast, there were a few who wondered whether he would deliver," Johnson says. But, in the end, "he convinced us he could be the Jacob we grew to love from the book."

So much so that there was outrage when it appeared he might be replaced in New Moon. Instead, Lautner locked himself in the gym and proved his worthiness. "He completely became Jacob in that his discipline and persistence was so like Jacob."

Ultimately, the love triangle is about more than picking a team. It's about the need for a young girl to check out what else is available before she settles down.

"For me, as an adult, it would not be believable if Bella fell in love with one guy and devoted her entire eternity to him by giving up her humanity," says Lori Joffs, 35, from the Nashville area and creator of Twilight Lexicon. "It's better if she has another option and can see what a future with Jacob would be like. That way she would know she couldn't live without Edward."

Screenwriter Rosenberg agrees. "It's not just about which boy do I want. It's a lifestyle choice. With Jacob, you'd have an earthbound life, a normal life in some ways with family and children. Edward represents the ethereal, fantastical life. That makes for a strong triangle. Frankly, just choosing which boy or girl you want is a little shallow.

"For Bella, it's a matter of life or death. Literally."

Pattinson, left, is Edward; Taylor Lautner is Jacob.

Daniel Radcliffe, the actor of Harry Potter smoked pot at a party

2009-11-13T08:51:00.000-08:00

Daniel Radcliffe, the actor of Harry Potter laughed his head off as he smoked pot at a party. See the pictures of Daniel Radcliffe at the party in today's Daily Mirror above.

Dopey Daniel, 20, even wandered about the house-warming bash, babbling to other party-goers: I love weed.

And the star who has spoken about shunning drugs was so out of it he let a girl scrawl all over his face with a pen.

Guest Wadia Tazi, 26, also at the London party, said: He looked spaced out and didnt look like he knew what was going on.

Harry Potter and the Philosophers STONED - star of kids films laughs as he has joint

Giggling Daniel Radcliffe got off his face on dope as a friend scrawled a comedy moustache on him.

The party-loving Harry Potter idol, a spliff between his fingers, could barely stop chuckling as the girl daubed his face at the house bash.

Fellow reveller Wadia Tazi, 26, said: Daniel was laughing and seemed to find it funny. But he didnt really look like he knew what was going on.

The screen idol, 20, earlier lit up the joint in front of guests and repeatedly took deep drags. He also walked around the flat blurting out: I love weed.

Wadia said: I was surprised by his behaviour.

Just last year the s30million actor insisted: Ive been around some amazing people and still managed to keep a real childlike view of the world. Im not into drugs.

The get-together, at a high-rise in Camden, North London, was thrown by a friend of his on-off actress girlfriend Laura OToole.

Wadia and one of his pals arrived at around 1am to find just eight guests as festivities wound down. He said Daniel already seemed in high spirits but keen that the newcomers did not twig who he was.

Wadia said: Most of the beer had already gone and people were tucking into pizzas.

Daniel looked spaced out and away with the fairies. He didnt want us to recognise him. When I said he looked like that actor in Lord of the Rings [Elijah Wood], he got a bit funny and said, No, thats not me. He looked pretty uncomfortable.

I didnt recognise him as he looked so different to what I expected from the films. When my friend told me who he was, I was shocked.

Within minutes of arriving at the do, Wadia, his pal and the star were alone in the kitchen and Daniel began puffing on a joint.

Wadia said: He was really friendly and talking about his dad a bit.

Then he pulled out a huge joint and lit up. Daniel said he loved it. He seemed happy that neither of us knew who he was.

At one point a girl dragged him away, saying, Come on Daniel, follow me. You dont trust me, do you?

She pulled him into the toilet and started drawing a huge comedy beard on his face.

The mood almost turned sour when a man called Sam believed to be the stars minder and Laura confronted Wadia over footage they believed he had shot on his phone. They found none.

Wadia said: Laura was very protective. She said Daniel had a reputation to protect and couldnt ruin it. I presume she meant by being seen smoking. I said I didnt know what she was talking about.

But almost immediately afterwards she and Daniel left.

Last year Daniel now filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I revealed that this years Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince contained subtle drug references.

He said: There are a few drug metaphors in the film. I think any film marketed in the main for children still has humour that works on one level for them and on another level for adults.
