Was there a memo sent out today regarding cult eighties movies that someone forgot to pass my way? First, we hear about Jennifer Lopez starring in a remake of Overboard and now this?! We’re traveling into the genre of comedy/horror with a revamp (pun intended) of The Monster Squad.
Jennifer Lopez is coming back to the silver screen with a plate full of romantic comedies. First up, it’s The Back-up Plan set for release late next month, then she’s off to remake the 1987 cult classic Overboard, which starred Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. Why you ask? No one knows.
In their latest romantic comedy The Bounty Hunter, Jennifer Aniston is lovely and Gerald Butler is an immature 12-year-old trapped in the body of a middle-aged man. Aniston is one of the ladies in Hollywood who’s taken up more rom-coms than anyone else, while Butler is slowly dipping his feet into the genre — he’s already got two under his belt (P.S. I Love You and The Ugly Truth). Now the duo joins director Andy Tennant, who like Aniston, has plenty of experience in the realm of unconventional love backed by hilarious circumstances.

In Hollywood, a good actress is usually defined by awards and/or more work. In the case of Abbie Cornish, it’s the latter. Variety reports that the Australian actress has landed two roles — one in Neil Burger’s The Dark Fields; the other in W.E., Madonna’s new directing vehicle.
The wait has been rough, but in a few months Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables will hit theaters. So far, this film seems to have more ‘umpf’ in it than any other action film coming our way (excluding Kick-Ass, of course). Lucky for us, a new poster has just been released as well as some long awaited buzz from the ShoWest trailer premiere.
The winner of the 2010 Academy Award for Best Picture goes to The Hurt Locker. Kathryn Bigelow, Mark Boal, and the cast accepted the award and boy were they excited. Bigelow held both her Best Director and Best Picture Oscars in her hands and thanked all those who believed in the film when so many people didn’t. They also once again mentioned the men and women serving in the military to protect our country. Such a monumental night for records to be broken and history to be made.
