  1. LINCOLN TOPS OSCAR NOMINEES

    <strong><span style=&quot;color: black;">Steven Spielberg&rsquo;s</span></strong><span style="color: black;"> epic <em>Lincoln</em> leads the list of nominees for the <em>85th Annual Academy Awards</em>, nabbing 12 nods, including Best Picture, Best Director (Spielberg), Best Actor (<strong>Daniel Day-Lewis</strong>), Best Supporting Actress (<strong>Sally Field</strong>) and Best Supporting Actor (<strong>Tommy Lee Jones</strong>). Coming in close behind is <em>Life of Pi</em>, with 11 nominations. Competing against both films for Best Picture are <em>Silver Linings Playbook, Argo, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Django Unchained. Amour </em>and<em> Les Mis&eacute;rables</em>. The biggest snubs of the day came in the Best Director category. Although they were considered locks, both <strong>Ben Affleck</strong> and <strong>Kathryn Bigelow</strong> failed to get recognized, despite both of their films, <em>Argo</em> and <em>Zero Dark Thirty</em>, nabbing Best Picture nominations. (<em>Les Mis&eacute;rables</em> director <strong>Tom Hooper</strong> was also snubbed in the category, although he wasn&rsquo;t considered as much of a shoe-in.) Other interesting Oscar tidbits: all five nominees in the Best Supporting Actor category (Jones, <strong>Philip Seymour Hoffman, Christoph Waltz, Alan Arkin </strong>and<strong> Robert DeNiro</strong>) are past Oscar winners. <em>Amour&rsquo;s</em> <strong>Emmanuelle Riva</strong>, who is 85, is the oldest Best Actress nominee ever, while <em>Beasts of the Southern Wild&rsquo;s</em> <strong>Quvenzhan&eacute; [Qua-VEN-zha-ne] Wallis</strong> is the youngest Best Actress Oscar nominee ever at 9 (she was six when she shot the film). <strong>Leonardo DiCaprio</strong>, who received a Golden Globe nod for <em>Django Unchained</em>, failed to get a nomination. &nbsp;This year&rsquo;s Oscar host, <strong>Seth MacFarlane</strong> received a nod for Best Original Song for his <em>Ted</em> tune &ldquo;Everybody Needs A Best Friend.&rdquo; And <strong>Christopher Nolan&rsquo;s</strong> <em>The Dark Knight Rises</em> didn&rsquo;t get any nominations, not even in technical categories.</span><a href="http://oscar.go.com/nominees"><span style="color: #1155cc;">Click here</span></a><span style="color: black;"> for a complete list of nominees. The <em>85th Annual Academy Awards</em> airs Sunday, February 24th on ABC. </span>

  3. Film Review: An incredible waste of 'Wonderstone'

    In how many ways is &quot;The Incredible Burt Wonderstone" a horrible miscalculation? Pretty much all of them. Yes, it has a couple dozen chuckles and maybe a few true laughs, but that's not enough to sustain this written-by-numbers piece of Hollywood "product."

  5. Review: 'The Incredible Burt Wonderstone's' title oversells movie

    What is it with Hollywood and hyperbole these days? Last week saw "Oz the Great and Powerful" and now we have "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone." Calling it "The Mildly Diverting Burt Wonderstone" would have been more accurate, but how many tickets is that...

  8. Katheryn Winnick brings fighting spirit to 'Vikings' role

    Katheryn Winnick holds a third-degree black belt in taekwondo and a second-degree black belt in karate, so playing a sword-wielding shield maiden in History's &quot;Vikings" was a cinch.
