Chris Brown Releases “I Can Transform Ya”
Chris Brown has released his first single since assaulting Rihanna in February. “I Can Transform Ya” features Lil Wayne and Swizz Beats, who produced the track. You can hear it in the video above, but skip to 2:17 if you don’t want to hear Chris try to figure out how to work his computer. “I Can Transform Ya” sounds like the man’s version of Beyonce‘s “Upgrade U” on B’Day. Even though his version is rather late — “Upgrade U” was released in 2006 — I don’t think this should have been his first release after the assault. Each time the hook plays, I think about how he transformed Rihanna’s face. Let us know what you think about the single in the comments. Keep reading »
5 Of This Year’s Killed Films That We Would’ve Preferred Over “The Ugly Truth”
Have I mentioned that I’m not a huge fan of Katherine Heigl? Or romantic comedies in general? Yes, I believe I have. Let the record reflect that being dragged to see “The Ugly Truth” in the theater was my worst nightmare. The movie even made my popcorn taste bad. In case you missed this winner of a film, it’s about two people in the work place with opposing points of view about love. Do I smell sexual tension resulting in a “happily ever after”? Ding ding ding! That’s why I got a little bit fired up when I saw Movieline‘s amazing list of movies with interesting plots and star power that got murdered this year. As in, got quietly brushed under the rug, locked in film vaults, or sent straight to video stores to make room for the likes of Sandra Bullock’s blockbuster “The Proposal.” Kill me now. After the jump, the top five films that never were that I would have preferred over the same old BS. Keep reading »

“The Human Centipede” Looks Horrifying
So remember how we told you about Lars von Trier’s “Antichrist,” the movie that made waves on the festival circuit for being totally nasty? Well, that film’s testicle-smashing and clitoris-slicing might seem like a cakewalk in comparison to “The Human Centipede.” Here is the “plot” synopsis for this horror movie:
“Two American girls are on a road trip through Europe. In Germany they end up with a broken car in the woods. They search for help and find an isolated villa. The next day they awake to find themselves trapped in a terrifying make shift basement hospital along with a Japanese man. A German man identifies himself as a retired surgeon specialized in separating Siamese twins. However his three “patients” are not about to be separated, but joined together in an horrific operation. He plans to be the first person to connect people via their gastric system, in doing so bringing to life his sick lifetime fantasy “the human centipede.”
Allow me to use layman’s terms: ass-to-mouth. If you’re crazytown enough to actually want to watch one of the scenes, you can do so at BuzzFeed. I, on the other hand, am going to go wash my eyes out with peroxide. [Shock Till You Drop] Keep reading »

Paintballers Splatter A Lovely Marilyn Monroe
The first time I played paintball, I discovered that it really hurt when those suckers hit you and decided it just wasn’t for me. But I am pretty amused by these enterprising paintballers who got together and plotted to craft a pop-art Marilyn Monroe by shooting their paintball guns. Kind of cool, no? Keep reading »

Could A “Friends” Movie Be On The Way?
For years, I wanted to be friends with “Friends.” But the TV show was canceled in 2004, as the 30-something cast slid more toward the “something” end of the spectrum. NBC seemed to think audiences weren’t interested in watching Monica, Rachel, Phoebe and their significant others settle into family lives. But Matthew Perry is such an expressive comedian—just think of what he’d have done with changing the diapers of twins! Ever since the series ended, fans and tabloids have never quite stopped wondering whether a big-screen adaptation would happen. Now, with the furor over “Sex and the City 2,” the din is getting louder. The Daily Mail reports that Warner Brothers is willing to pay big bucks to bring all six cast members together and that the stars have already agreed to the reunion. The actor who played coffee shop downer Gunther on the show says this is true. “‘Friends: The Movie’ is definitely on,” he told News of the World. “I still keep in touch with a lot of the cast and they say that they are really keen [to do it]. I am definitely on board to do the film.” But other sources say this is total rubbish. I guess we’ll have to wait and find out. Could I BE more disappointed? [MTV]
