‘Bones’ Renewed for Season 10
Tierney Bricker — E Online

Break out the celebratory tin!

Bones has officially been renewed for a 10th season by Fox, the network announced on Wednesday.

And that wasn’t the only good news Fox had in store for fans of David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel‘s long-running drama: it’s moving back to Monday night! Beginning March 10, Bones will return to its old timeslot, Monday at 8 p.m. Kitchen Nightmares is set to take over Bones’ current timeslot, Fridays at 8 p.m., on Friday, Feb. 28.

Oh, geez guys! Enough already. This show is way past the point of being any good. It makes me sad and upset because this show used to…

Federal Agents Take Man Out of Theater for Wearing Google Glass

Federal Agents Take Man Out of Theater for Wearing Google Glass
Russ Fischer - /Film

Because I don’t want Glass to distract me during the movie, I turn them off (but since my prescription lenses are on the frame, I still wear them). About an hour into the movie (Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit), a guy comes near my seat, shoves a badge that had some sort of a shield on it, yanks the Google Glass off my face and says “follow me outside immediately”. It was quite embarrassing and outside of the theater there were about 5-10 cops and mall cops. Since I didn’t catch his name in the dark of the theater, I asked to see his badge again and I asked what was the problem and I asked for my…

Rumor that ‘Batman Vs. Superman’ Could Tie In to ‘Justice League’

Rumor that ‘Batman Vs. Superman’ Could Tie In to ‘Justice League’
Germain Lussier — /Film

A new rumor is circulating that could explain the number of superheroes potentially showing up in Batman vs. Superman. We know for sure Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman will be in the Zack Snyder sequel, set for release July 17, 2015. We’ve also heard wild rumors of other superheroes, such as Green Lantern, Flash and Aquaman, possibly popping up in the film. Whether those rumors are true or not, the addition of Wonder Woman alone has fans worried Snyder’s film will bite off more than it can chew.

Well the new rumor is Batman vs. Superman will end on a huge tease for a Justice League movie,…

Why Armond White Was Kicked Out of the New York Film Critics Circle

Why Armond White Was Kicked Out of the New York Film Critics Circle
Owen Gleiberman — Entertainment Weekly

This morning, the members of the New York Film Critics Circle, including me, voted to expel Armond White, the former critic of the now-defunct New York Press (and currently the editor and movie critic of CityArts), from the group. To me, it was a sad moment — pathetic, really, though Armond brought it on himself. A week ago, at the Circle’s annual awards dinner, White made a rude and bellicose spectacle of himself, as he did the year before, by heckling one of the winners — in this case, Steve McQueen, the director of 12 Years a Slave, a movie that White, in his review, had dismissed as…

Rebel Wilson Joins ‘Night At the Musem 3’
Mike Fleming Jr. - Deadline

Rebel Wilson has been set to join Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Steve Coogan and Ricky Gervais in Night At The Museum 3, which Shawn Levy is directing from the script written by Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant and David Guion and Michael Handelman for Fox. Wilson will play the night guard at the British museum where the action takes place this time around.

Remember how I put this movie on my list of movies to look forward to this year and everything? Well, YIKES! I take it all back. Ugh.

Dave Chen Interviews Armond White about Steve McQueen Heckling

Dave Chen Interviews Armond White about Steve McQueen Heckling
David Chen - /Film

12 Years a Slave was my favorite film of the year, so I was pretty disappointed when I read in outlets such as The Guardian and Variety  that former /Filmcast guest Armond White had heckled Steve McQueen during the New York Film Critics Circle Awards. Sure, White was no fan of 12 Years a Slave, as demonstrated in our /Filmcast review of the film with him. But shouting down a man during an evening meant to praise him? It struck me as wildly inappropriate. The Chair of the NYFCC, Joshua Rothkopf, agreed and issued a public apology. 

You can listen to some low-quality audio of the incident…

Armond White Heckles Steve McQueen

Armond White Heckles Steve McQueen
Entertainment Weekly

When McQueen was presented the best director award Monday night by Harry Belafonte, critic Armond White allegedly jeered McQueen as “an embarrassing doorman and garbage man.”

In an email to 12 Years a Slave distributor Fox Searchlight first posted online by Deadline, NYFCC chairman Joshua Rothkopf apologized to McQueen for “the crass bit of heckling” he encountered. Rothkopf said he was “mortified” that it came from one of the group’s own members and pledged “disciplinary action.”

I don’t care what he thought of the film, that was disgusting and classless.

Matt Mitovich - TV Line

ABC — which to date among broadcast networks has offered perhaps the most regular and wide availability of full episodes via streaming — is set to enact some limitations.

The network announced on its Watch ABC portal that starting Monday, Jan. 6, only those who can verify their cable subscription* — or those who use the Hulu Plus premium service — will be able to access full episodes the following day.

Those aiming to play morning-after catch-up without a valid cable service log-in or via Hulu’s free service will need to wait eight days after broadcast before new episodes become available…
