Kevin Smith vs a mustached critic
July 19th, 2006 under Kevin Smith. [ Comments: none ]

DON’T joke about women, donkeys and bestiality if you expect Joel Siegel to watch your movie. That’s what director Kevin Smith found out when the pun-loving "Good Morning America" film critic stormed out of a press screening of Smith’s "Clerks II," which opens Friday – an act that’s sparked a vicious war of words between the two. "Time to go!" roared Siegel to his fellow critics. "First movie I’ve walked out of in 30 [bleeping] years!" His tirade came 40 minutes into the long-awaited Weinstein Company sequel to Smith’s 1994 cult classic about two foul-mouthed Long Island convenience store clerks who razz customers and goof off. In the scene that sent Siegel to the exit, the characters graphically discuss hiring a woman to perform sexual favors on a donkey. Siegel told Page Six: "It was so foul and mean and repulsive. I finally realized I could not say anything positive . . . I wasn’t ready for this kind of smut . . . I hope he doesn’t make any more movies."An apoplectic Smith fired back on his MySpace blog: "Getting a bad review from Siegel is like a badge of honor. This is the guy who stole his mustachioed-critic shtick from Gene Shalit years ago, and still refuses to give it back. This is a guy who seemingly prides himself on his own nyuk-nyuk wordplay. For ‘Pirates 2,’ he made us all titter with ‘Yo, Ho, Ho and a Bottle of Fun’ . . . He made us squeal with delight when he wrote, ‘Wheelie Good Time for "Cars." ‘ I mean, Fozzy [bleeping] Bear laughs at this guy."And there’s more: "I don’t need Joel Siegel to [bleep] my [bleep] the way he apparently [bleeps] M. Night Shyamalan’s, gushing over his flick [’The Lady in the Water’] before he’s even seen it, but [bleep] man, man – how about a little common [bleeping] courtesy? You never, never disrupt a movie, simply because you don’t like it. Cardinal rule of moviegoing: Shut your [bleeping] mouth while the movie’s playing."I don’t come down to your job and slap the taste out of your mouth for coming up with a line like, ‘ "Shark Tale" Is a Halibut Good Time’ – so don’t [bleep] with my stuff while it’s still screening . . . What are you, a 12-year-old boy cutting loose with your pals at a Friday night screening of ‘Scary Movie’ 4′ while your parents are in a theater down the hall watching ‘The Devil Wears Prada’? Leave the diva-like behavior and drama-queen antics to the movie stars, not the movie reviewer, ya’ rude-ass [bleep]."

Page Six

Seriously has he never seen a Kevin Smith movie or know who and what Kevin Smith is? OMG and M Knight had one good movie the rest are long, drawn out, uneventful Twilight Zone episodes.  

And BTW how the heck does Joel Siegel maintain that thing?

Roger Ebert update
July 18th, 2006 under Sick Bay. [ Comments: none ]

Roger Ebert, the revered Sun-Times movie critic who takes a back seat to no one, will temporarily turn over his seat in the balcony to celebrity co-hosts while he continues to recover from cancer surgery.Starting with the "Ebert & Roeper" show to air Aug. 5, fellow Sun-Timesman Richard Roeper will be joined by guest critics to review the week’s movies. Previously taped shows will continue to air until then. "Don’t get too used to these guest co-hosts because I’ll be back in the balcony before you know it," an upbeat Ebert said Monday from Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he is reported to be in good condition and getting better each day. Ebert, 64, underwent surgery for a recurrence of salivary cancer on June 16. A follow-up surgery on July 1 repaired a blood vessel that burst near the site of the earlier operation. "Roger is improving each day and continues on his road to recovery," said his wife, Chaz Ebert. "He’s been through a lot and needs more time to recuperate. . . . Roger will return to his seat in the balcony in the near future, and I ask that you continue to send healing thoughts his way."Said Roeper: "As much as I’m looking forward to opening the balcony to some bright and challenging minds, what I’m really anticipating is that day in the near future when I can welcome back the best and most popular film critic in the world."

Ryder injured at the park?
July 18th, 2006 under Kate Hudson. [ Comments: none ]

KATE HUDSON was furious after learning her two-and-a half year old son RYDER was injured by an older child while playing in a New York City park on Monday (17JUL06). The star was in town doing publicity for her new movie YOU, ME AND DUPREE, when she received a call that her son had been involved in an accident. She explains, "Ryder had his first big accident today. He’s fine. "Ryder was at the park and some big kid that’s like nine-years-old or something was in the wrong area, knocked him over, and he hit his lip and busted his lip open and got all bruised everywhere. "I got that call that is like the worst call to get, ‘There’s been an accident at the park…’ "But thank God I wasn’t there, I would have drop-kicked that kid to like the West Side Highway. I would have been so mad! I would have been like, ‘Where are his parents?!’ "He’s really into the cowboy thing, so he immediately looked at himself in the mirror and got on his horse and said, ‘I’m a real cowboy now!’ He took it like a little man."
