Yet another link removed from chain that supports civilization. | Photo courtesy of Walt Disney Pictures Presaging the imminent arrival of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Beverly Hills Chihuahua raced to the top of the box office this weekend. The cuddly piece of shit hauled in $29M from the borderline intelligent, easily outdistancing last week's champ (and fellow turd) Eagle Eye ($17.7/$54.6M). The wonderful, life-affirming Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist pulled in $12M (go......

All hail his holiness, the great Michael Cera! | Photo courtesy of Sony Pictures Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist looks like an ideal date movie for confused and annoying teens. The presence of the awesomely talented Michael Cera, however, insures my aged presence. Beverly Hills Chihuahua looks so awful that it will probably be hilarious. Stoned. I don't much like Bill Maher, but I do like that Bill Maher exists and has a platform on......

It was a fun-filled day Saturday at Universal Studios in spite of the relentless heat. Stars posed on the yellow carpet, stiltwalkers danced, fireworks exploded, kids feasted on cupcakes and cotton candy, and a human cannonball shot out over the crowd. And all this before the ride even opened! Also check out our ride preview, and videos from the opening gala!......

Today is the long-awaited official opening of the Simpsons ride at Universal Studios! (See lots of photos of the ride here) Check out the following videos of Kelsey Grammer, Matt Groening, and a human cannonball from the Universal Studios Gala Party last Saturday, Kelsey Grammer was an extremely good sport, humoring our request to do Sideshow Bob's evil laugh. More photos of the festivities, Kwik-E-Mart and "yellow carpet" to come!......

Am sorry to report the K-Ville is nothing more than another cop show. A shootout an car chase 8 minutes into it? Tough guy Anthony Anderson 's character crying in the first 15 minutes? I don't know how this show could redeem itself, I essentially tuned out after the first 20 minutes. I'll tell you what though, Saving Grace somewhat redeemed itself what with Holly Hunter's bare butt being the focal point of the......

Staggering in the footsteps of several other celebrities who found themselves in similar situations after consuming too much and saying or doing inappropriate things (Rush Limbaugh, Martin Lawrence, Courtney Love, Charlie Sheen, Kelsey Grammer, Andy Dick, and of course Robert Downey Jr.,) today Mel Gibson entered rehab for his drinking problem. David Mamet, yes that David Mamet, makes a funny at Mad Max's plight. In other bad news, Beck's new video and song is......

If you see Jennifer Love Hewitt today, wish her a happy birthday; she turns 27. And she's not the only one celebrating. Charlotte Church, the little "voice of an angel" soprano, turns 20. Musician Mark Arm from Mudhoney turns 44 and Jerry Harrison of the Talking Heads will be (yikes) 57. This was Nina Simone's birthday too, but she's not around anymore for someone to put a little sugar in her bowl. Another gone but......

LAist made the mistake of tuning in to Fox's Kelsey Grammer presents: The Sketch Show (they might want to trim that title...or the whole show) last night, and we will forever be longing to have those wasted 30 minutes returned to our lives. Apparently someone at Fox had the brilliant idea that this successful British comedy show in the vein of "Monty Python" and "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" could survive an American version, but......
