Coming Soon: John Lennon Biopic

Here's a trailer for Nowhere Boy, a biopic of the early life of John Lennon. Looks good.

Critics Schmitics. Airbender Was Enjoyable

Yes, there were slow moments. But overall, The Last Airbender stayed true to the spirit of "Book One: Water" of the animated series. Granted, I saw it in 2-D, not 3. And that's probably how it was supposed to be viewed before the scramble for 3-D flourishes brought on by Avatar. But, yes, the movie scored only 8 percent on RottenTomatoes because 1) most of the critics didn't watch the cartoon series on which it was based and 2) they weren't the audience anyway. I'm hoping for a part two. The movie debuted in No. 2 and has since grossed $62.5 million.

Mad Men, Glee Top Emmy Nods

From the first commercial for the sneak peak way back when, I knew Glee would be damn good TV. And it's place as one of the most affecting and addicting new comedies ever was solidified today when it nabbed 19 Emmy nominations, including acting nods for Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison, Jane Lynch and Chris Colfer. Neil Patrick Harris and Kristin Chenoweth are nominated for their guest turns on the series.

Our other favorite show, Mad Men, was nominated 17 times. And this year, January Jones -- who seriously killed it last season as Betty Draper -- is nominated for female lead in a drama. Christina Hendricks and Elisabeth Moss compete in the supporting actress race, John Hamm gets another lead male nod and John Slattery competes for a supporting actor award.

Other standouts:

• Showtime's crazy spectacular Nurse Jackie (did you see the last minute of the second season finale!) nominated for best comedy and actress (Edie Falco)
• That guiltiest of guilty pleasures, True Blood got a nomination for dramatic series (disappointed there were no acting nods for Anna Paquin who plays Sookie and Nelsan Ellis who plays Lafayette)
• You Don't Know Jack, HBO's Dr. Kevorkian bioflic starring Al Pacino (nominated for lead actor) as well as Brenda Vaccaro and Susan Sarandon, who compete in the supporting actress race
• Mary Kay Place and Sissy Spacek, both nominated for their work on Big Love
  

Check out the full list of nominations at The Envelope at the Los Angeles Times.

New Trailer for Harry Potter and the Dealthy Hallows

Coming in October -- 'Red'

Bruce Willis hasn't been in a movie I've wanted to see in many, many, many years. That changes now with "Red," a new action flick set to hit theaters in October. He stars opposite Helen Mirren, who hasn't appeared in a bad movie in many, many years. Check out the trailer.

Official Trailer: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Pt. 1

Whatever my feelings about the last Harry Potter flick, I'm still very much interested in seeing the next movie. And this, the second look I've seen of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Pt. 1, looks bloody brilliant. Movie comes out Nov. 19.

And they said 'Precious' wouldn't get work

The Oscar-nominated, Spirit Award-winning actress Gabourey Sidibe took some heavy criticism from the likes of Howard Stern after the Academy Awards. He said she was too big to make it in Hollywood. That she wouldn't get another role. This summer, Gabby will be seen in Laura Linney's new Showtime series, The Big C. In it, she plays the anti-Precious, and the show looks damn good.
