Silent film ‘The Artist’ crowned with Oscar gold
Silent movie “The Artist” crowned its spectacular awards season success by winning five Oscars including the coveted Best Picture prize at the 84th Academy Awards. The French-directed black-and-white movie earned Oscars for best director for Michel Hazanavicius and best actor for Jean Dujardin, who played a silent movie era star…
Ex-Beatle McCartney gets Hollywood star
LOS ANGELES — A small reminder of Beatlemania came to Hollywood when Paul McCartney was honored with a star on Tinseltown’s storied Walk of Fame, watched by hundreds of screaming and jostling fans. Police blocked off Vine Street near the intersection with Hollywood Boulevard, as the crowds swelled across the…
Police release images of suspect in LA arson spree
Los Angeles police released security camera images of a man suspected over a spree of arson attacks that kept Hollywood on edge over the New Year. The LA Police Department (LAPD) has also asked residents to leave their porch and car port lights on overnight, after some 40 fires were set over three nights including New…
Why conservatives who want more conservative shows won’t get their wish
I’ve been thinking a lot about this post that Roy put up about reading Big Hollywood after skipping out after awhile: Scanning the headlines at Big Hollywood after a long absence is kind of disorienting: SUCKER PUNCH SQUAD: Villain in Will Ferrell’s ‘The Other Guys’ Is Friends With….Dick Cheney! ‘Glee’…
Ground zero for romantic comedy evil
Irin at Jezebel has a post up making fun of Hollywood, because there are two movies and one television show in production called “Friends With Benefits”, demonstrating the perennial problem of trend-chasing and lack of imagination in the entertainment industry. Why oh why is this suddenly the hot topic in…
Why “Inglourious Basterds” should win Best Picture….and why it won’t
To make it clear, I haven’t seen all the movies nominated for Best Picture Oscar, so it’s entirely possible that one is better than “Inglourious Basterds”. But I’ll admit I’m skeptical, if only because “Basterds” one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. So I’m going…
Your Irony Of The Day
Big Hollywood, the site that was set up to protest the silencing of conservative voices by the McCarthyite Hollywood left, has banned me for posting critical comments. Not profane, not threatening, just critical. I don’t even have a mansion to go home and host a dinner party in. Dammit. UPDATE:…
Men and women are different, in that their opportunities are different
Man, we really are all Hollywood today. Twice in one day, I read or heard someone suggesting that it’s weird and outdated for the Golden Globes, Oscars, and other awards like that to break up the acting awards by gender. They idly wondered why the separate categories on Overthinking It…
Birthdays Was The Worst Days
I’m sorry, but I’m obsessed with Big Hollywood. Andrew Breitbart managed to assemble the ur-wingnut site, and then focus every single contributor on the most inane topic imaginable – their own victimization at the hands of people who entertain intentionally. It’s like assembling the greatest minds of the Renaissance to…
The Year Of Living Conservatively
Hollywood conservatives, it’s time for an intervention. Have a look at some of the great things that have happened recently at the multiplex. Spider-Man 3, a pro-American, pro-responsibility film with deeply Christian overtones topped the box office in 2007. 300, which said a lot that needed to be said about…
