Dead Ringers

In the mid-19th century, "Powder Monkeys" were the names of the young lads aboard naval warships whose most common task was carrying gun powder to the weaponry. It was no simple job to be had, and these boys were roughly between the ages of 11 and 18, but now we're wondering if it was common for girls to disguise themselves as boys in order to get in on the action. We only ask this becau

Jeremy Renner's acting abilities are to be commended. He was able to proceed from where Matt Damon left off in the 'Bourne' movies and give us another installment that was (semi-) worth our time. But where he failed in his portrayal of a genetically enhanced assassin was in his predictability. Case in point -- he always reverts to the same grumpy-looking facial expressions, hence he always looks l

Regardless of what our dueling critics say, the Joss Whedon-directed 'Avengers' was in the top two best movies of the summer (if it wasn't for 'The Dark Knight Rises,' we could definitively call it the best). Now, as if over night, being a geek is suddenly "cool" and tons of non-comic-book-reading fans are pretending that they were hip to the subculture before everyone else. Well, Whedon

Together, though the little rascal known as "Honey Boo Boo" and her Mama Boo Boo, known as the Coupon Queen, aren't always the most graceful when it comes to pageants -- or life in general -- they make one heck of a team. But they're hiding something... Just as 'South Park' revealed the 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy' stars to be nothing but Crab People, so too are we outing Honey Boo B

So... There was a reason we were all scared to watch what Snooki would do next on the many seasons of 'Jersey Shore,' and it was this same reason we all collectively breathed a sigh of relief to hear that season 6 would be the show's last. But we couldn't pinpoint that reason until just now, and the reason was post traumatic stress disorder.

It's Fashion Week in New York City, which is, as designer Michael Kors calls it, the "New Year's of fashion." So, to honor all the designers showing their collections at Lincoln Center and to help get us in the spirit of the occasion, we decided to look back in the fashion history books and learn us a thing or two about style... And guess what we found.

There are some out there who think TV host Larry King is too smart for his own good, and just as many who believe everything that comes out of his mouth is pure insanity. So, when you combine these two images, you get the real-life incarnation of the irrevocably senile, totally wrinkled and insanely smart Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth from 'Futurama.'

Present America could use a movie like 'Atlas Shrugged: Part II' -- the story of a society on the brink of economic collapse -- since everyone's focusing heavily on the upcoming presidential election and where each candidate stands on this issue in particular. However, do you think the folks behind the scenes were trying to make a political statement with portraying actor Jason Berghe as a Mitt Ro

If you've seen the trailers for 'Looper,' then you already know Joseph Gordon-Levitt doesn't quit look like himself in the film. In this time traveling sci-fi actioner, he's supposed to be playing the past self of Bruce Willis' character, so certain physical adjustments had to be made to make that believable. However, he now looks so plastic that he resembles more of James Deen... and we're not ta

Sean Penn is one of just a handful of actors who have the ability to completely transform to fit their screen personas. He famously became gay activist Harvey Milk for the lead role in 'Milk,' which won him the Oscar for Best Actor in 2009; and the grieving father in another Oscar-winning performance for 'Mystic River.' Now, he's taking on another transformative role in 'This Must Be the Place,' w
