John Wayne is not only the only actor to place posthumously on this annual Harris Poll that asks Americans who their favorite actor is, the Duke is also the only actor — living or dead — to find a slot

“I wash my hands of this.” The mainstream media will spend ten days losing their ever-loving minds blaming a Sarah Palin campaign map a killer never saw for that killer’s actions, but this news about a confessed terrorist admitting that

One thing I do respect about MSNBC is that unlike the rest of the mainstream media, even during the network’s so-called straight news segments, MSNBC doesn’t even try to hide its agenda. If only the equally left-wing Politico had the

‘ACT OF VALOR’ TV SPOT & FEATURETTE TAKE YOU IN THE LINE OF FIRE Today, we have a new TV spot for Act of Valor, as well as a five-minute long featurette that offers a better look at the overall

ARMOND WHITE SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT Why “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” was Better Than “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” Armond White: It’s a way of looking at the entire year of film and giving people an

Buried in the middle of this article posted at ABC’s The Note, you will find, in my humble opinion, the real news in this story, and it’s likely buried because it’s horrible, terrible, not-so-very good news for the MSM’s Precious

If there’s anyone the entertainment media elite hate more than our GOP candidates, it’s the great unwashed who dare vote for someone who isn’t Barack Obama. In a bizarre but seething article — at an entertainment site, no less —

People don’t evolve over only four decades, certainly not leftists. During the Vietnam War, the left was pretty sure that trashing the United States Military as “baby killers” and the like would win them supporters. Instead, they felt a public

NETFLIX USERS STREAM 3000 LIFETIMES’ WORTH OF VIDEOS IN 3 MONTHS And Hollywood thinks they can put this genie back in the bottle. Never. DID YOU KNOW KING KONG ALMOST BATTLED FRANKENSTEIN’S MONSTER? Alternate title: Did you know the greatest

There’s a HUGE left-wing agenda behind what Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert is doing, and it’s a serious agenda that has nothing to do with satire. Colbert’s goal is two-fold: he’s attacking constitutional free speech by attempting to make a mockery

Supposedly based on a true story, director Gary McKendry’s “Killer Elite” boasts a terrific premise. After a close call involving a child, Danny (Jason Statham) decides that it’s time to get out of the elite assassin-for-hire business. After a year

**UPDATE: I was a little careless with my language below. Readers have correctly pointed out that “Shark Night” is rated PG-13 and that there is no “gratuitous nudity.” This is correct. What there is, though, are a lot of young,

The flawless transfer of writer/director Alex Cox’s equally flawless cinematic story of the mutually destructive relationship between Sex Pistols’ punk rock bassist Sid Vicious (Gary Oldman) and his groupie girlfriend Nancy Spungen (Chloe Webb), includes a number of documentaries that

HBO is one of the most liberal entertainment outlets ever conceived, but at the very least you had to respect them for not trying to hide that agenda. So why go all spineless now? Part of HBO’s absurd, intelligence-insulting denial

So, the other day on her local St. Louis radio talk show, our own Dana Loesch said the kind of thing that just a few years ago was celebrated by the mainstream media as the perfect example of “brave and

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN’S NEW ALBUM IS HIS ‘ANGRIEST’ YET Like a new Stephen King novel, I miss being excited about upcoming Springsteen albums, and now even the ones I did enjoy (pre-2001) sound a little silly and simple. I haven’t even

And you wonder why Apatow’s overlong, forgettable films are about as edgy as a baby’s pacifier. Huffington Post: While accepting the Critics’ Choice Award for Best Comedy film, “Bridesmaids” producer slammed Jerry Lewis for a sexist remark the legendary comedian

And so, let the word go forth that Super PACs must bloom in every corner of America! Let the free speech flow! Let the money fall like rain, and let the national debate give voice to opinions other than those

DVD RELEASE DELAYS LEAVE RETAILERS UNFAZED This is why Hollywood hates the free market: Netflix appeared to shrug off the latest announcement from Warner Bros. Home Video that it will double the delay — to 56 days — between the

Good Morning, Vietnam (25th Anniversary Edition) (1987) 25 years ago, Robin Williams was already a household name and television star, but at the time, while I was sitting in the theatre watching this box office hit unspool, I knew Williams

Long, long ago, the Associated Press simply decided to stop being objective. Other than the final act of officially declaring their left-wing bias, the AP has done just about everything else required to announce that they are on a crusade,

Yesterday, on NPR’s Talk of the Nation, Glenn Kessler, who writes the Washington Post column The Fact Checker, said he doesn’t call people liars. Really? One wonders what, say, a MSM fact-checker would think of that statement. Granted, Kessler doesn’t

This screen shot was taken just a few minutes ago, and it is a breathtaking (even for the left-wing PolitiFact) example of what a horribly biased outlet PolitiFact is. In the past, I’ve written about Poltifact’s bias and even grabbed

Watch George Lucas pitch “Red Tails” directly to conservatives and American patriots. —– Lucas describes “Red Tails” as “very patriotic,” “very jingoistic,” “old-fashioned” and “corny.” NewsBusters: “I showed it to all [the studios] and they said, ‘No. We don’t know

The New York Times claims to be preparing a correction over this, but a correction a lot fewer people are likely to read is like telling a jury to disregard what they’ve just heard. A wily lawyer knows a jury

More proof the MSM is done hiding their biases in 2012. We all know, including the mainstream media, that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is a GOP star, a devastatingly effective critic of President Obama’s failed policies, a superb communicator,

MICROSOFT BRINGS FOX NEWS, SESAME STREET, COMCAST TO XBOX Can someone please tell me how this works? Is this a subscription service like Netflix Streaming? Corp. content from Twentieth Century Fox Films, Fox Television, Fox News and The Wall Street

Some industry folks attempt to put the best spin possible on this bad news, but an overall 2% drop in home video sales from an already catastrophic collapse is terrible news. The economy isn’t getting worse; it’s sputtering but has

The best description you’ll read of HBO’s beautifully produced original series “Boardwalk Empire” didn’t come from me. It’s actually something I’ve read in many places and the perfection of the description comes from the simplicity: good television that could be

Below is video from the portion of today’s White House briefing where the press corps brought up the lavish Hollywood-themed Halloween party the West Wing threw in October of 2009. Some in the media are reporting that the White House,

REVIEW OF SODERBURGH’S ‘HAYWIRE’ The trailer is at the bottom of the story linked above and looks fantastic. Smart, stylish and incredibly well crafted, Haywire is as ludicrously pleasing to the eye as the best of Soderbergh’s recent work and

Unlike the corrupt mainstream media, Disney Studios has no obligation, moral or otherwise, to inform anyone about the White House throwing a lavish Hollywood-themed party during the depths of the Great Recession. But it is more than a little revealing

Good morning, Mainstream Media. How are things under the Obama bus? Please tell Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers we say hello. You remember them. You helped Obama hide them there. Frequently, I refer to the mainstream media as Obama’s Palace

This is all about collapsing DVD sales, but what the studios refuse to come to terms with is that if their movies didn’t stink, we would purchase more of them. Right now, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” is

The new “found footage” horror entry, “The Devil Inside,” has plenty of problems as a stand alone film. My colleague Christian Toto points out many of them here. Reportedly, Paramount purchased the exorcist story for somewhere around a million dollars,
