WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!
 1. Purgatory is filled with helpful rocks/crabs that will gladly crush themselves under the weight of an enormous boat just to help some guy who talks to himself.
2. Contrary to popular scientific belief, the world is not round. It actually ends with a giant waterfall that leads to the Sahara Desert.
3. Johnny Depp will lick anything he finds on the ground, for no apparent reason. He’ll even lick his own brain, given half a chance.
4. In the battle of ‘get off the screen you irritating twat’, Keira Knightley surprisingly bests Orlando Bloom.
5. Geoffrey Rush makes wispy facial hair look cool and Bill Nighy makes face-tentacles look cool.

Filed under: Documentary, Cannes, Celebrities and Controversy, Movie Marketing, Politics  You know you're an expert at causing controversy when you earn your very own investigation from the Treasury Department. So, we should all probably get comfortable with the arrival of Michael Moore's new documentary Sicko, which just recently screened at Cannes, and will be stirring up who knows what kind of trouble as its release date gets closer. Moviefone is now hosting the trailer for the documentary, which gives us a look at what looks to be another well-meaning, if not-a-little-biased entry from the socially conscious filmmaker. It includes a quick look at the stunt that landed Moore in trouble with the Treasury Department in the first place. The film, as you probably know, is Moore's expose of the U.S. health care system. The response to it has been pretty positive so far, and inexplicably the doc even managed to get thumbs up from Fox News. But not everyone is feeling the love for the film -- a group of disgruntled Canadian journalists recently confronted the filmmaker at a press conference claiming, "We Canucks were taking issue with the large liberties Sicko takes with the facts." Mainly, their problem is that Moore patronized Canada by claiming their health-care system was problem-free, which, as I am sure my fellow countrymen know, is not the case. Sicko is set to hit theaters June 29th. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

Things have just gotten worse for Lindsay Lohan!
After being busted by police and charged with DUI, the LAPD are now revealing that cocaine was found in the troubled pAArty girl’s car.
Though it seems like everyone in Hollywood does it, cocaine is illegal, bitches.
Officers believe that Lindsay was speeding – under the influence of drugs/alcohol – and lost control of her car on Saturday morning. The car hit a crashed into a curb and a tree on Sunset Blvd, and Lohan was taken in another car to the Century City hospital.
Police received a 911 call about the accident after Lindsay abandoned her banged up Mercedes and fled the scene of the incident.
Officers “tracked Ms. Lohan to the local hospital, where she was ultimately placed under arrest” for investigation of misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Lohan was cited and released. She faces serious drama when the matter heads to court. In addition to the drunk driving dilemma, she will also face felony criminal charges for the illegal narcotics in her car.
We’re guessing Lindsay’s gonna be paying another trip to rehab very very soon.

Former View co-host Debbie Matenopolous tells USA Today that Barbara Walters and executive producer Bill Geddie create stars – they don’t hire them – and they will create another one.
“You can’t replace Rosie O’Donnell. You have to go in a different direction. If they really want to be groundbreaking – hire a gay man,” says Debbie.
Dayum. Geraldo Rivera told us the same thing.
We’re gonna have to start campaigning for the job.
Replace one fat, opinionated gay with another.
Perez to replace Rosie on The View!

 In 2003, I tentatively bought a cinema ticket for a Disney pirate film based on a theme-park ride which had never failed to underwhelm me as a child. I was sceptical to say the least. Not to mention that the last pirate film I’d seen had Geena Davis in it and was… shite. I was never so glad to have been proven wrong. Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl was pure, popcorn munching blockbuster gold and it was everything that a good summer movie should be.
And now we’re on sequel number 2 and that summer of 2003 is starting to look as golden as the summer of 78 must look to hippies and Bryan Adams. At World’s End is plagued by similar problems to Dead Man’s Chest. Orlando Bloom is again at his hammiest, but is amazingly outdone by Keira Knightley’s pathetic performance as the ‘babe with attitude.’ She’s neither convincing as a babe, nor a pirate, leaving her to merely float through the film in an unfortunately beefed-up role.

Oops! The curse of young Hollywood!
Lindsay Lohan‘s car was involved in an accident in Los Angeles early Saturday morning, the local Fox affiliate is reporting.
It is believed that Lohan was intoxicated at the time of the incident. Her car was towed and she went to the hospital to treat injuries.
The troubled actress, who was recently released from rehab, was cited for driving under the influence and released shortly thereafter “because she has been admitted to a local hospital for minor injuries,” an LAPD rep said.
Lohan’s Mercedes SL-65 2005 convertible struck a curb at 5:30 A.M. Saturday morning near her West Hollywood apartment..
Two other passengers were in the car while the inebriated party girl was driving. They received minor injuries and were also taken to the hospital.
Officers went to the scene after receiving a 911 call about the accident.
Lohan will have to appear in court at a later date to answer the DUI citation.
We’re sure Dina Lohan will find a way to blame this on the paparazzi or the pressures of being young and famous….anyone but her crackhead daughter!

Filed under: Drama, Casting, Deals, Celebrities and Controversy .jpg) Less than a day after the trades announced that Lindsay Lohan had signed to appear in the film Poor Things, her life appears to have turned upside down again. It's being reported that, earlier today, Lohan ran her Mercedes convertible up onto a curb and into some trees while speeding in Beverly Hills and then fled to a local hospital to be treated for minor injuries. Police, responding to a *911 call, tracked Lohan to the right hospital and arrested her for investigation of DUI. At a subsequent afternoon news conference, they said that a "useable amount" of a drug they've tentatively identified as cocaine had been found while investigating the crash, though they declined to be specific about where exactly.
This is the latest in a laundry list of troubles for the young actress, which have played hell with her filming commitments, and now there's no telling if we'll be reading in the coming weeks about a replacement for Lohan in Poor Things. The domestic gross on Georgia Rule, which currently stands at $14.8 million, seems proof that the actress's uber-dramatic private life isn't exactly translating into box-office gold, so it's unclear if she'll continue to be a bankable star -- especially in teen-aimed romcoms -- after a stunt like this. The next film she'll be seen in is I Know Who Killed Me, which is currently utilizing a rather successful marketing campaign. That one is expected to hit theaters on July 27.
