It seems ridiculous that this blog hasn’t even existed for a year yet, and already we’re re-posting “Scotty Doesn’t Know” from the movie Eurotrip. If you haven’t seen Eurotrip, you might as well. There are worse things to watch while drunk.
In the video, Matt Damon sings a song at a party about how Scott, our hero, doesn’t know Matt Damon is having lots of sex with his girlfriend.
It was the original “F*cking Matt Damon.”
The song was written and recorded by a Los Angeles band called Lustra, who are now saying that a new Miley Cyrus track, “Rock Star” is just “Scotty Doesn’t Know” with different lyrics.

Bill Lawrence, the show-runner for Scrubs, can finally talk about his move from NBC to ABC now that upfronts have passed and ABC has given Scrubs a new season.
Now, Bill is free to describe NBC as having a “total harsh buzz of not giving a s–t about a show that had been on the network for seven years and made them millions of dollars.”
More Silverman bashing (which we so love) and details about how the show is going to change next season, inside.

There isn’t much of a story here, outside of our continued love for WALL-E. We haven’t been following him much on the site, but never have we been so enamored by a character in a movie we hadn’t seen.
So cute, is WALL-E, that they took one of the animatronic characters built for Disney theme parks into the streets of LA.

Things are not turning out well for Lindsay Lohan recently. She got kicked off of the Manson Girls movie because she was sinking the project like Rosanne Barr not waiting 30 minutes before swimming in the ocean.
Point being, with all this negative PR, you think Lindsay would have asked NERD to remove her 4 second cameo in their new video “Everybody Nose,” which is very obviously about attractive sluts doing cocaine in clubs.
Is that really what she needs right now: to be associated with cocaine AGAIN?
The video, complete with LiLo career-hurting cameo, inside.

The trailer for Woody Allen’s latest, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, has hit. The film hasn’t debuted yet, so we have to rely on the official plot synopsis, which we will include below.
But first: If you were Woody Allen, wouldn’t you just make movies with hot women making out? We would, we totally get it.
Woody, you put in your Golden Years, you made it acceptable to like the geeky guy. You made witty intelligence as valuable a dashing good looks, and you did it as a Jew with big glasses.
All we’re saying is that we’re not the biggest fan of your Scarlett Johansson period or that you seem to have left New York, a city you helped define on film. But, you can do whatever you want because you’ve already contributed your lifetime achievement.
If you just want to direct hot actresses in threesomes, we totally get it, that’s what we’d do. Work hard, play hard.

All that punctuation is meant to show that we are both excited and slightly vexed by the news that Richard Kelly’s newest film, The Box, will be scored by the indie band The Arcade Fire.
We’re excited because it’s The Arcade Fire. Both Funeral and Neon Bible were running soundtracks to our own lives at certain points in time (we’d say the first EP, but we’re not up our own asses enough to lie to you).
We’re vexed because it’s Richard Kelly’s The Box, which has looked, thus far, to be little more than a Twilight Zone episode with Cameron Diaz and James Marsden. And we haven’t seen Southland Tales, but we keep running across it playing in small underground theaters that seat 25 people.

Films may be selling over in France, but television money is all here in New York. It’s upfronts week, when all the networks flash their bling for advertisers in hopes of keeping their businesses alive.

Just the other day, we were talking about old school television series that we wanted to watch and 90210 and 21 Jump Street were struck from the list. 90210 because it went on for far too many seasons after high school and 21 Jump Street because it was the first television show to split plots and, as a result, there are some kinks in it.
Kinks Superbad’s Jonah Hill is in talks to work out.

We’ve known that Magneto was going to be the next prequel-bound X-Men character since X3 managed to crush any realistic hopes of The X-Men continuing any sort of linear series. The two most profitable characters were Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and Ian McKellen’s Magneto, so both of them get their own prequel.
We’re going to see Wolverine’s first, but that doesn’t mean the wheels aren’t turning on Magneto…

We have to admit, it’s been bothering us how little we’ve wanted to write: Hulk Smash! The first trailer for The Incredible Hulk was more about Ed Notron’s Banner running around, trying to avoid the government with a few cuts to the battle with Abomination. It was pretty much crap, and the internet nailed it for being so.
Now, with Trailer 3, the minds behind Hulk have thrown caution into the wind, referencing Hulk’s “return” to the big screen (so Ang Lee’s film happened, or what?).

Everyone is talking about the news from Cannes that Point Break 2 is on its way, and we didn’t want to say anything, because that would just prove Hal Sparks right.
You know Hal Sparks, he used to host Talk Soup before it was just The Soup, then he was on Queer as Folk, now he mostly does VH1 talking-head shows. On I Love the 90s, Hal said: “We never saw Bodhi die… I smell a sequel, Point Break 2 – Paddling Out.”

Poor Miley Cyrus. Just a few weeks ago, we wouldn’t even think about making dirty milk-mustache jokes on a Wednesday morning. But, then she posed for a scandalous photo and more of her bizarrely un-sexy Myspace photos leaked…
She’s just all scandalous photos these days.
Miley’s new milk at reads: Girl Power. Actress by day. Rocker by night. I’ve got to keep fit to keep up. So I drink milk. Some studies suggest that teens who chose milk instead of sugary drinks tend to be leaner and the protein helps build muscle. It’s the best of both worlds.
Some of us asked: “What studies don’t suggest this?” while Dave said: “She should have been wearing a pearl necklace.”

Pete Doherty kissed Amy Winehouse goodbye last night after visiting with her immediately following his first gig since he got out of the clink (unsurprisingly on drug charges).
We’re not exactly sure what this picture represents, but it’s something. It’s two of the biggest British celebrities, and they both have very serious and extensively documented drug habits.
