You may or may not have noticed that sometimes Siri says crazy things. We recently noticed that Siri summarizes movies in a pretty funny way, too. Siri seems to have a distinct preference for Sci-Fi (who can blame her?), though she also has a few words to say about the classic Wizard of Oz, as well as Pixar’s Toy Story.

Siri is such a dear. Not only can she give me the weather report, the latest game stats, remind me to milk the cow at 4:30 am (on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays), but she can also tickle my funny bone.

I trust that Apple, without Scott Forstall (the head…

Anheuser-Busch is requesting that Paramount Pictures “obscure or remove” the Budweiser logo from “Flight.” Of course, Paramount doesn’t have to comply, as filmmakers don’t have to get permission to feature products in their films. And while product placment is routine in Hollywood movies, it’s easy to see why Robert Zemeckis and Co. didn’t bother giving the booze makers a heads-up (“Hey guys, we’re making a movie about an alcoholic, want a six pack in there?!”). But the Budweiser brewers aren’t the only ones furrowing their brow; the dudes over at William Grant & Sons are not pleased…

I have a confession to make. I have avoided 3D movies pretty much all of my life, believing them to be gimmicky and stupid. As such, I had never seen a film in 3D before this past weekend. Yes, you read that right. Here it is in 2012 and I had never seen a movie in 3D. I’ve been to many, many, many, movies, but never once have I ever had the desire to see a film in 3D.

I knew that I needed to see at least one film in 3D so that I could better speak to the phenomenon. So I saw Wreck-it Ralph in 3D. The decision to see this particular film in 3D was somewhat difficult. I didn’t yet know how…

When it comes to choosing a presidential candidate, you have to think of what they’ll bring to the table. And if it’s a zombie apocalypse you want, then you should vote for Mitt Romney, according to filmmaker Joss Whedon.

The Avengers director released a spoof video endorsing the Republican candidate, saying, “Like a lot of liberal Americans, I was excited when Barack Obama took office four years ago. But it’s a very different world now, and Mitt Romney is a very different candidate.”

Why is he different, you ask?

That’s funny. I thought that the last few presidents have worked…

Could Ghostbusters 3 really, finally, at long last, be getting into gear? The long-awaited horror prequel was put in “suspended animation” earlier this year, but since this project never stays dead for long, it soon picked up a new writer to pen a fresh script. Now it looks like director Ivan Reitman, star Dan Aykroyd, and the studio are preparing to shoot next summer.

Hmm. I’m not convinced that the world needs more Ghostbusters but apparently studios and producers disagree with me. The world is a stupid place sometimes.

Is there any character at this point that spans TV and film in the unusual way that Jim Varney‘s character Ernest P. Worrell did in the ’80s and ’90s? The seemingly bygone career of Larry the Cable Guy comes close, but Ernest has him beat. Ernest P. Worrell, played by Varney, began life as an ad pitchman thanks to the agency Carden and Cherry, then moved into his own TV show, and headlined a nine-film series. (OK, only five of those were theatrical releases. Still.)

Now John Cherry, the character’s creator and the man who directed most of the theatrical Ernest appearances, wants…

The break-up frenzy that upended Glee earlier this month appears to be spreading to Bones.

On the heels of Sweets and Daisy’s sad split, fresh evidence has emerged that strongly suggests the long-running drama is about to drive a wedge between Angela and Hodgins too!

“Everything that came together in Season 7 is going to fall apart in Season 8,” exec producer Stephen Nathan reveals in the latest installment of Fox’s “Breakfast with Bones” video series. Adds series creator Hart Hanson: “A good template for the [season is], ‘Let’s test everybody who’s in love.’”

You may remember that…

Sony Pictures Animation has just landed the movie rights to Manimal, based on the 1980s television series about a wealthy doctor with the power to transform into animals in order to fight crime.

Do studios really need to be told this is a bad idea? Seriously? I don’t know how anyone might possibly think this is a good idea.

Here’s the show opener from the 1983 show.

Hasbro’s reasoning is that Transformers: Dark of the Moon action figures didn’t sell well because the two previous films had also featured the same characters. That is, a kid who picked up Optimus Prime from Toys ‘R’ Us in 2007 after seeing the first Transformers movie probably wouldn’t be inspired to purchase another Optimus Prime in 2011 after seeing the third one. Therefore, Hasbro believes, introducing fresh characters to the lineup should boost toy sales.

Okay, first, TRANSFORMERS 4?!? What is wrong with the world??? I don’t want to live on this planet anymore!

But more to the…
