Glenn Close’s panties in a bunch over “lewd” Navy videos
If you haven’t been too busy reading juvenile movie blogs all week, you might have heard that Navy Capt. Owen Honors was recently fired as commander of the carrier USS Enterprise in the fallout from the release of some “raunchy”, “anti-gay” videos he made to entertain his “seamen” (sorry, one seamen joke, I couldn’t resist). Him being a budding filmmaker and all, I thought this story fell under our purview, so I’ve embedded a couple of the videos in question. They’re pretty boring, sort of what you might expect if Michael Scott from The Office was a ship commander. I’ve spent waaay more time than I would’ve liked watching these, only to see what was so offensive, and the worst thing I saw was a guy saying a “f*g clogged up the sh*tter!” My stars, men aboard ship making jokes about gay sex and masturbation??? Tread not on my monocle, for in my surprise it has fallen.
Blood Stone 007 Preview
Blood Stone starts like anything Bond should: with a bang. In true Spy Who Loved Me style, 007 parachutes onto a private yacht, evades an enemy gunship, speedboats across Athens harbour and blitzes through oncoming traffic in his beloved Aston Martin DB-S. It might be on your console rather than your local multiplex, but Daniel Craig’s Bond is back. Unsurprisingly, there’s an international conspiracy, and only Her Majesty Secret Service’s finest, unperturbed by budget cuts, can unravel the mystery that surrounds the theft of Britain’s covert chemical weapon. Mixing elements of stealth and action, Blood Stone immediately reminds you of the two most recent films, the world’s least secretive spy moving in the same swift, predatory manner that we’ve come to expect from Daniel Craig’s 007. Whether stalking silently or rushing enemies all guns blazing, everything’s been made as slick and simple as possible – switching to different a…

Taylor Swift: 2011 People’s Choice Awards Red Carpet (PHOTOS)
If Taylor Swift is still hurting from recent split with Jake Gyllenhaal, you wouldn’t know it by the looks of her on the red carpet at the 2011 People’s Choice Awards. The Speak Now singer confidently strutted her newly single stuff in a dainty peach dress (clearly, “Pretty In Pink” is the theme of the evening). Is T-Swift’s knowing smile her way of telling us she won’t pretend to be surprised this time when she wins (again) tonight or is it because she still got to keep the ,000 guitar Jake had gifted her?
Lady Gaga Announces Single, ‘Born This Way’ Release Dates

After a whirlwind of a 2010 that saw her releasing epic Tarantino-inspired music videos, repurposing meat, and delivering the year’s best-selling album worldwide, one might expect Lady Gaga to begin 2011 by laying low and taking some time to reflect on her monstrous fame away from the spotlight. Yeah, right. Obviously, Gaga’s not going anywhere, as evidenced by a cryptic New Year’s tweet regarding her upcoming Born This Way: “THE SONG 2 13 11 THE RECORD 5 23 11,” which came complete with the above photo (which we might find shocking if it was anyone but Lady Gaga). More after the jump.

Sons Of Anarchy: Season Three Rides In
Apologies to anyone seething in the UK, where the second season has only just finished, but the bikes of SAMCRO roared back on to America’s airwaves on Tuesday night, which can only mean one thing: Sons of Anarchy has returned.Kurt Sutter’s blacktop Shakespeare tale of a motorcycle gang and the various shifting allegiances as they smuggle drugs, run weapons and rule their small California town has grown into one of the best dramas to come out of the US. The emotions run high, the violence is brutal but the characterisation is sharp and this is the most charismatic bunch of criminals since The Sopranos left the air. Even if they can’t swear like them…I came late to the Anarchy party. After sampling the pilot and one or two episodes of the first season, I decided I simply couldn’t connect with these lawless bikers. But sheer pressure from people whose opinions I respect led me back this summer, and I binged on both seasons in a fortnight’s marathon. I&rsquo…
