(Estelle Harris): I'm packing you an extra pair of shoes and your angry eyes, just in case.

'Dinner for Schmucks' comically skews the concept of doing whatever it takes to get ahead. Tim (Paul Rudd), an ambitious sixth-floor analyst for a private equity firm, finally has the opportunity to snag his long sought-after promotion. His boss hosts an annual "dinner for winners," a bogus event in which employees vie to bring the biggest idiot to be secretly mocked for their amusement. At first, Tim's conscience holds him back. Then, in a perfect twist of fate, he meets Barry (Steve Carell), an unwitting IRS agent with a love for taxidermy and a private collection of "mousterpieces." Tim can't resist such an easy ticket to the top and invites Barry to dinner. Unfortunately, the consequential mayhem that ensues seems only to lead Tim on a downward spiral towards rock-bottom.

Tim: You invite idiots to dinner and make fun of them?
Williams (Larry Wilmore): Mmm-hmm.
Tim: That's...messed up.

Tim: Oh my god! You know that is just so like you. You call a guy a douche and you get your first museum show.

Kieran (Jermaine Clement): Do you have any idea what it's like Tim, to be up to your elbow in a zebra's vagina?
Tim: No.
Kieran: You should try it Tim, it's magical.

Tim: No.
Lewis' Ventriloquist Wife: Why not?
Barry: Tim, were you? Please don't embarrass me.

Barry: And you put a little hat on it. And you call it Sammy.

Barry: These people invited us here to make fun of us; this is a contest for the biggest idiot-which I nailed!

'Easy A''Easy A' follows the life of Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) as an obscure no-body to the popular it-girl at her high school, basically a modern day version of Nathaniel Hawthorne's Scarlett Letter. When her best friend Rhiannon (Alyson Michalka) asks Olive how her weekend went, she decides to whip up a spicy white lie about losing her virginity. But the mild exaggeration takes on a life of its own after it reaches the ears of rumor monger and Jesus freak Marianne (Amanda Bynes), and now Olive has the reputation as the easiest lay in school. With witty dialog and a great cast this comedy is sure to make you re-examine social networking, gossip and public persons.

Brandon: "I am tormented every day at school. Just one good, imaginary fling."

Olive: "The rumors of my promiscuity have been greatly exaggerated."

Rhiannon: "George is not a sexy name. George is like what you name your teddy bear, not the name you wanna scream out during climax."

Olive: "We've had nine classes together since Kindergarten...ten if you count Religion of Other Cultures, which you didn't because you called it science fiction and refused to go."

Marianne (Amanda Bynes): "You've made your bed...I just hope for your sake, you've cleaned the sheets."

Marianne: "Jesus tells us to love everyone, even the whores and the homosexuals. But it's so hard, it's so hard because they keep doing it, over and over again."

Olive: "Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life."

Olive: "If he's so smart, why is your boyfriend 22 years old and still in high school?"

'Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps' Quotes: Greed Is Legal

'Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps'In 'Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,' director Oliver Stone delivers an updated look at our country's economic crisis and follows up to his Regan-era fairy tale, 'Wall Street.' Through the eyes of Michael Douglas' iconic villain, Gordon Gekko, this new crisis looks a lot like the old one - an opportunity to get rich, again. However, Gekko has been humbled since we last saw him after he served an eight year prison sentence on the account of testimonies and evidence provided by his former protégé, Bud Fox (Charlie Sheen) and eccentric billionaire rival Bretton James (Josh Brolin). Now that he is out, the blocks have tumbled for everyone and no one knows which way is up - especially young hot-shot Wall Street player Jake Moore (Shia LaBouf), who is coincidentally engaged to Gekko's estranged daughter Winnie (Carey Mulligan). While Jake hardly becomes Gekko's new protégé, he seems eager to help the former tycoon in any way he can...and so the Gekko stand-off begins.

Here are the best quotes from ''Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps'


Gordon Gekko: "Someone reminded me I once said, 'Greed is good' Now it seems that it's legal because everyone is drinking the same Kool-Aid."

Jacob Moore: "Bubbles are evolutionary. They kill excess, lean out the heard, but they are never completely destroyed. They just come back in different forms and when they burst they give light to a new day, always creating change."

Jacob Moore:
"Are we going under? There are 15 thousand jobs on the line - 15 thousand! Are we going under?"
Lewis Zabel (Frank Langella): "You're asking the wrong question, Jake."
Jacob Moore: "What's the right question?"
Lewis Zabel: "Who isn't?"

Gordon Gekko: "You're all f**ked. And you don't even know it yet."

Gordon Gekko: "I've been considered a pretty smart guy and maybe I was in prison too long. But sometimes it's the only place to stay sane and look out through those bars and say, 'Is everybody out there nuts?!"

Gordon Gekko [Speaking to an audience of college students]: "You are part of the NINJA generation. No Income. No jobs. No assets."

Gordon Gekko: "Its a bankrupt business model. Its malignant, like cancer. Its a disease. Now we have to fight back. I'll tell you how to fight back in three words: Buy. My. Book."

Jacob Moore: "That would be insider trading Mr. Gekko. Remember your daughter and I are engaged, I wouldn't want to soil her name. Right?"
Gordon Gekko: "Well you may not have traded, but you try telling the feds that you didn't commit a felony."
Jacob Moore: "What do you mean."
Gordon Gekko: "You know exactly what I mean. You induced others to trade on infromation that you knew to be false."
Jacob Moore: "Hard to prove that."
Gordon Gekko: "A fisherman always sees another fisherman from afar...I think you ougtha start calling me,Gordon"

'The Social Network''The Social Network' is a fictional story of the birth of Facebook, but more specifically about Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, played by Jesse Eisenberg. The film focuses on the simultaneous lawsuits against Zuckerberg by his best friend Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield) and three former classmates. The story is told in flashbacks between depositions of both cases and explores the intriguing psyche of Zuckerberg during his quest towards creating a thriving social network. Set with a twist of irony since, Zuckerberg was unable to attain the social niche he desired while at Harvard. The movie highlights the tribulations of college life, social acceptance, relationships, friendships, deceit, and social envy, all while depicting the start up of one of the biggest societal trends of this decade.

Here are the best quotes from 'The Social Network.'

Administrator: "I'm sorry"

Administrator: "I don't understand."
Mark Zuckerberg: "Which part?"
Administrator: "You believe you deserve some recognition?"

Mark Zuckerberg: "I don't hate anybody. The Winklevi aren't suing me for intellectual property theft. They're suing me because for the first time in their lives, the world didn't work the way it was supposed to for them."

Divya Narenda: "Then why aren't we doing anything about it? Because we're gentleman at Harvard?"

Lawyer: "Okay...no. You don't think I deserve your attention."
Mark Zuckerberg: "I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try, but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing. Did I adequately answer your condescending question?

Sean Parker: "You're going to hand them a business card saying, 'I'm CEO, bitch'"

'It's Kind of a Funny Story''It's Kind of a Funny Story,' adapted from the novel by Ned Vizzini, shows us a turning point in the life of 16-year-old Craig (Keir Gilchrist). Overwhelmed by academic pressures and a major crush on his best friend's girlfriend, Nia (Zoe Kravitz), Craig gets himself admitted to a psychiatric hospital. He becomes popular with the other patients, including his roommate, Muqtada (Bernard White), a troubled young father named Bobby (Zach Galifianakis) and an attractive girl named Noelle (Emma Roberts). During his five days of treatment, Craig and his new friends help each other begin to change their lives for the better

Here are some of the best lines from 'It's Kind of a Funny Story:'

[Craig dreaming that he is about to jump off a bridge. His parents and little sister call him.]
Lynn (Lauren Graham): "What were you planning to do about your bike, hon?"
Craig: "I don't care about my bike. I'm killing myself."
George (Jim Gaffigan): "Well, we spent a lot of money on the bike, sport. We only ask that you take care of it."
Alissa (Dana De Vestern): "Think of me, Craig. I might want that bike when I grow up."
Craig: "I'm sorry. I just didn't think it was..."
Lynn: "That's right: you didn't even think about us when you were deciding to do this, did you, honey?"
George: "Pretty selfish, I'd say. Have you thought about how this might affect your sister?"

Craig: "I, um... I wanna kill myself."
[Nurse Harper hands him a clipboard with a form on it.]
Nurse Harper (Karen Chilton): "Fill this out."

Bobby: "You got a cigarette?"
Craig: "Ah... no, sorry."
Bobby: "What's wrong with you?"
Craig: "I just don't smoke."
Bobby: "No-I mean, why are you in the E.R. at five o'clock on a Sunday morning?"

[narrating over a montage]
Craig: "... Like, my dad always asks the wrong questions."
George [at the dinner table]: "So, Craig, how's the 'Intro to Wall Street' class?"
[Craig vomits across the table.]
Craig [continues narration]: "So maybe this is a slight exaggeration, but I do have a problem with stress-vomiting. And my friends sometimes look at me like I'm from another planet. And I'm obsessed with this girl... who happens to be going out with my best friend. So...is there any one thing that made me want to jump off a bridge?"
Craig [talking to doctor]: "Um, no. Nothing unusual."

Bobby: "Do you have any other puke stories that you'd like to share with me while we're getting to know each other?"

Bobby: "This is the shower. Doesn't have a lock, so when you go in, put it on 'In Use.' Get it?"
Craig: "I got it."
Bobby: "'Kay-you got it, but nobody else does, so they'll walk in on you while you're scrubbin' your balls, and you don't want that."

Bobby: "What's the pot up to now?"
Johnny (Adrian Martinez): "Eleven."
Bobby: "Eleven? Yesterday it was twelve."
Johnny: "Humble ate a buck."
Bobby: "Humble ate a buck."
Johnny: "Professor bet him a dollar he wouldn't eat it. He won."

Bobby [describing his sweater]: "It smells like a hobo's Band-Aid."

[Craig talking to the psychiatrist about a prestigious summer-school program to which Craig is expected to apply.]
Dr. Eden Minerva (Viola Davis): "What would happen if you didn't get in?"
Craig [narrating over a montage of his imagined future]: "Then I wouldn't be able to put it on my college application, which means I wouldn't get into a good college. If I didn't get into a good college, I wouldn't have a good job. Which means I wouldn't be able to afford a good lifestyle. So I wouldn't be able to find a girlfriend, which means I'd probably get depressed, and I'd end up like Muqtada in a place like this for the rest of my life. So... what would happen if I didn't get in?"
Craig [talking to the doctor]: "I don't know. It's hard to explain."

Nia: "Well, are there any cute girls in there?"
Craig: "Not really. Like, a mental hospital probably isn't the best spot to hook up."

Alissa: "Have you made any friends yet?"
Craig: "Um, yeah, I guess."
Alissa: "Are you friends with the tranny?"
[They look over at a young transsexual resident.]
Lynn: "Oh, the tranny."
Craig: "Um, not really."

[Craig helping Bobby prepare for an interview to get into a group home.]
Craig: "Like, what is it that you could bring to the home? Something special that only you could offer."
[Bobby remains silent.]
Craig: "It could be anything. Um, maybe you have a great attitude."
Bobby: "No."

Craig: "Girls, grades, parents, two wars, impending environmental catastrophe, a messed-up economy. All these things seemed to come out of nowhere. Like, on the same day."

Dr. Eden Minerva: "So, let's talk about your parents."
Craig: "You think I can change my parents?"
Dr. Eden Minerva: "No, but I'm a psychiatrist, so I have to ask you about them at some point."

Bobby: "Babe, you can't live your life in fear. You're gonna end up like Muqtada, or worse - me."
[Craig doesn't say anything.]
Bobby: "That's the part where you go, 'Hey, Bobby, your life's not that bad.'"

Bobby: "You're cool. You're smart. You're talented. You have a family that loves you. You know what I would do just to be you for just a day? I would, I would do so much. I would, I don't know, I'd just... I'd just live. Like it meant something."

Bing! Stephen Tobolowsky on How 'Groundhog Day' Changed His Life

Stephen Tobolowsky is an award-winning character actor who has appeared in more than 200 movies and TV shows. His podcast, The Tobolowsky Files, is absolutely worth your time, and you should totally follow him on Twitter.

He is also a Moviefone columnist. (His first insightful humor column for us was about on-set catering and craft services.) Since it's Feb. 2, we asked Tobolowsky to write about the movie 1993 comedy 'Groundhog Day' and how his landmark role as annoying insurance salesman Ned Ryerson (aka Needlenose Ned, Ned the Head!) has stuck with him through the years.

In particular, he discusses his famous lines: the irksome 'Bing!' and the snickering "Watch that first step -- it's a doozy!"

Before you read Tobolowsky's awesome column below, check out our list of interesting facts about him and watch the following clip that compiles all of his scenes from 'Groundhog Day.'




Happy Groundhog Day!

I am referring to the movie. 'Groundhog Day' has become a comedy classic and a part of the fabric of popular culture. It is one of the few films that has added mythology to a pre-existing holiday.

You can tell the movie's effect with one simple test: If people refer to Groundhog Day in connection with being caught in a web of senselessly recurring events, they're really talking about the movie. If they are talking about six more weeks of winter, they are talking about the holiday in its original incarnation. I would bet the split is greater than 50-50 toward the movie reference these days.

People still recognize me as Ned everywhere and indirectly express their love of the film though various Ned-related interactions with me. Here are some of my favorites.

1. I was working on a film for Disney called 'Don't Look Under the Bed.' We were doing a night shoot in Utah. It was about 10PM when an assistant director told me a couple of kids wanted to meet me. He said they were big fans of 'Groundhog Day.' I said, "Sure, bring em on." Two guys came up to my trailer and said they had something they wanted to show me. They proceeded to do the entire first street scene I did with Bill Murray in the movie. Full out. They had every line learned and every movement copied perfectly. By the end of the scene, they'd drawn a crowd of cast and crew, and with the final "Watch out for that first step -- it's a doozy!" they got wild applause, which they deeply deserved.


2. I was in the Bahamas shooting another movie for Disney, 'My Father the Hero.' A family got on the elevator. The husband did a double take when he saw me and asked what I was doing here. I said, "Working." He said, "You're kidding -- you guys have gone international?" I said, "We go where they tell us to go." He was very impressed. Then he started asking questions about his policy. I got a little lost and apologized. I told him I wasn't sure what he was talking about. He said, "You signed me to a big life insurance policy." I said, "Not me." He was certain. Finally his wife intervened and said, "No honey. This isn't our real insurance man; he was the insurance man in that movie." He stared at me for a long time and said, "You're an actor?" I said, "Yes." "But you played an insurance man in a movie?" Again I said, "Yes." He was still unsure. "And you said, 'Bing!'?" I nodded. He shook his head and said, "And you're sure you didn't sell me a life insurance policy?"


3. I was in Iceland and I got lost in the airport. I ended up in a hallway with lots of stripes painted on the floor and warning signs that were unintelligible to me. I walked on to see if there was a way out. Sirens went off. Lights started flashing. One of the three people in Iceland with a military uniform came running out of nowhere with two tough looking tattooed women behind him. He had his gun drawn. I froze as he pointed the weapon at me. I raised my hands ready to be hauled off to an Icelandic jail somewhere. The soldier looked at me sideways and started to smile, then giggle, then he called out to his two assistants, "Hey! It's OK! It's just Ned!" After which he came up to me and shook my hand.

Have a happy Groundhog Day, and remember it's all right if the same thing occasionally happens to you over and over again, like getting kissed by a stranger, receiving money in the mail -- or seeing the movie 'Groundhog Day,' of course.

2011: The Year of Rutger Hauer's Badass Comeback

$
0
0

When it was announced yesterday that veteran actor Rutger Hauer would be joining Dario Argento's 3D adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic novel 'Dracula,' it was the final piece of evidence needed to prove that one of my greatest dreams was coming true: Yes, folks, Rutger Hauer is back.

Honestly, Hauer never really left; it's just that recent years have found the actor working in foreign productions overseas as Hollywood has moved on to a younger (and in most cases, blander) generation of stars. Sure, Rutger was never exactly an A-lister (although he did make THR's list of the 50 most bankable actors in the world in the late '80s), and he's appeared in his fair share of bad films over the years (e.g., 'Wedlock'), but he's an instantly recognizable face to film fans for his work in titles like 'The Hitcher,' 'Blade Runner' (probably his finest hour) and 'Turkish Delight.'

2011 is shaping up to be the year of the Hauer renaissance. Aside from playing Van Helsing in Argento's film -- which is perfect casting -- the 67-year-old Dutch actor also had two films appear at Sundance. Both were well received.

The first, 'The Mill & the Cross' finds Hauer playing artist Peter Breugel, while '80s-styled exploitation throwback 'Hobo With a Shotgun' casts him in the lead role as a homeless man cleaning up the streets with extreme prejudice. If that weren't enough, the actor also had a supporting part (starring alongside Anthony Hopkins, another actor who's played Van Helsing) in Warner Bros.' supernatural thriller 'The Rite.' It feels like we're witnessing a Mickey Rourke–type comeback here.

The parallels between Hauer and Rourke don't really end there. Each performer has been clever in how they've not only returned, but in reinventing themselves as older actors. Both have seemingly embraced the "down and out" role in films like 'Hobo' and 'The Wrestler.' It's something Arnold Schwarzenegger would do well to study as he plans his own big screen comeback. Of course, Rourke and Hauer are slightly more versatile performers than Schwarzenegger, but the way Hauer in particular is selecting his roles is intriguing and could serve as a template for Arnold moving forward.



Younger Hauer never had the physique of a Schwarzenegger to sell himself as a superhero (or menacing villain – something he was equally adept at playing). What he did have was that steely gaze that cut right to the bone -- which was especially impressive in a film like 'Blind Fury,' a westernized updating of 'Zatoichi' that finds Hauer playing a blind swordsman -- and a decent build. He hasn't lost either of these things, which makes him believable in roles like Van Helsing (which, admittedly, always calls for an older actor, but does require some physical action skills near the climax) and the Hobo. Hauer is like a less-restrained Clint Eastwood, the major difference being the ever-present hint of madness lurking beneath the surface in Rutger's best roles. It's that gleeful insanity bubbling under his relatively calm exterior that takes even lighter Hauer fare like 'Surviving the Game' and makes it unforgettable. Ice-T might have gotten top billing in that film, but Hauer's villainous hunter is who we all remember.

So, now that we know I'm excited about all the Rutger Hauer flicks in our immediate future, what do you guys think? Can an aging, yet talented, Dutch actor regain his popularity with a younger generation of film fans? Are you excited that Hauer seems poised to make a big-time American cinema comeback? What kinds of roles would you like to see the actor tackling in the future? If there's a sequel to 'The Expendables,' can we pencil Rutger in for a part now? Share your thoughts below.

Favorite Lines: Steve Carell's Wife Thinks His On-Screen Sex Life Is Ridiculous

From the way Steve Carell's wife copes with his on-screen love life to why Neil Patrick got involved with 'The Smurfs,' as long as there are new movies coming out, there will always be celebrities to talk about them. So with 'Cowboys & Aliens,' 'Crazy, Stupid, Love,' and 'Attack the Block' among other quality movies coming out this week, we thought we'd start up "Favorite Lines" -- a new ongoing feature where we round up the best celebrity quotes from the past week and present them in a neat little lineup for you to enjoy.

There were some bonafide gems this week from some big names in Hollywood, so go ahead and see for yourselves what the celebrities came up with over the past week.

Steve Carell on getting up close and personal with Julianne Moore and Marisa Tomei in 'Crazy, Stupid, Love:'

"You know who's even more surprised than I am is my wife. She cannot believe that I get to make out with beautiful women in movies. She thinks it's ... one of the most ridiculous aspects of our marriage."

[via NPR]

Ryan Gosling on why he signed up for 'Crazy, Stupid, Love:'

"Okay, so when I finished 'Blue Valentine' I had to go get a physical from the doctor and he gave me a prescription and it said, 'Do a comedy.' So I did."

[via Collider]
'Cowboys & Aliens' screenwriter Robert Orci on his approach to blending genres:

"This sort of genre mash-up relects a movement in music, to sample and mix stuff together. But, in a way, we're mixing genres that have already been mixed. 'Star Wars' is a space western. 'Star Trek' was pitched as 'Wagon Train' to the stars. We're just not hiding it in this movie."

[via Entertainment Weekly]
Alec Baldwin took questions from his fans on Twitter, this was our favorite answer of the bunch:

"@vickijackson2: @AlecBaldwin what film starring yourself has made you feel the most proud? 'The Hunt for Red October'"

[via Twitter]
Neil Patrick Harris on what got him involved in 'The Smurfs:'

"When I was first approached for 'The Smurfs' I figured it was going to be for a voice of one of the characters, so when I found out that I was going to be one of the human counterparts I was understandably excited by the prospect ... I've never got to dabble in anything quite like this. I did a little bit in 'Starship Troopers,' but mostly they'd have these battles and I'd come marching in at the end, say a couple lines, and march out."

[via Channel3000]
Don Cheadle on the perks of filming 'The Guard' in Ireland:

"I golfed every weekend. I golfed in the rain. I didn't care. I was like, 'I'm in Ireland. I'm golfing.'"

[via Vulture]
Olivia Wilde on her 'Cowboys & Aliens' character as a female role model:

"I think it proves that those roles can be women, that it doesn't have to fit into the usual molds. I think that something like [James] Bond is a good example. We think of Bond as being a man, but there's no reason it shouldn't be a woman."

[via Ain't it Cool News]

'Attack the Block' breakout actor John Boyega on how his parents are taking to his newfound fame:

"My mum sees me in a different light, she thinks I'm an action superhero. So therefore whenever she hears something creaking downstairs in the kitchen she's like 'John, you get it. Do something like you did in the film.' Dad thinks I'm incredibly cool, but he still wants me to get to the level of Bruce Willis because he's a big Bruce Willis fan. I asked him the other day, I said 'dad, do you respect me more than Bruce Willis?' and he said 'Yeah ... no.'"

Sean Penn Didn't Get 'The Tree of Life' Either

If there's one movie this year that we are just sick and tired of talking about, it's 'The Tree of Life' by a mile. While we're more or less convinced that it constitutes a stunning achievement of film making, we still can't explain those dinosaurs or the fact that it turned into a cosmic ballet for 30 minutes.

So if you're one of the many who wondered "What the hell is going on?" at some point during the film, Sean Penn is here to tell you that you're not alone. When asked about his reaction to the film in a recent interview with Le Figaro, Penn provided a surprisingly honest response -- one that revealed his motivation for accepting a role in the movie to begin with.

It's not often we hear about a movie star slamming his own work, so click through to see what Penn had to say about Terrence Malick's 'The Tree of Life.'
I didn't at all find on the screen the emotion of the script, which is the most magnificent one that I've ever read. A clearer and more conventional narrative would have helped the film without, in my opinion, lessening its beauty and its impact. Frankly, I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing there and what I was supposed to add in that context! What's more, Terry himself never managed to explain it to me clearly.
There's something to be said for Penn's reaction to the finished product. In the end, 'The Tree of Life' may be far easier to appreciate than to enjoy.

Colin Firth Thinks Movie Audiences Are Being 'Underestimated'

Isn't it nice when someone tells you you're smart? Well if you like going to the movies, then Colin Firth just called you a genius.

Now that his latest starring vehicle 'Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy' has walked away with glowing reviews from the Venice Film Festival, the Oscar-winner sat down with The Guardian to discuss how it will be received by a wider audience on December 9. According to reports, the film moves along at a slow pace and carries a highly intricate plot that might turn off some viewers, but that doesn't seem to worry Colin Firth.

In his own words:
I do think there is a tendency to underestimate audiences, I do think there is an appetite to be stretched. I do think people want to hear language at its best on the screen. I'm optimistic about it having an enormous audience."
In light of the financial success of 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' and Disney exec. Andy Hendrickson's belief that a movie's story doesn't matter, the sad thing is that Firth might be in the minority. It's great to hear that someone in Hollywood has faith in the intelligence of moviegoers, but click through to tell us what you think about Firth's comments and check out the latest trailer for 'Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.'


So do you agree with Firth, or would you take spectacle over story any day?

Lars Von Trier Is Still Going on About the Nazis

Even without personal experience to go off of, we're fairly certain that sympathizing with Nazis in a public forum is a pretty terrible idea. After getting banned from the Cannes Film Festival for that very reason while promoting his latest film 'Melancholia,' one would think writer/director Lars Von Trier would have realized this fact of life by now.

But when prompted about his controversial comments during a recent Q&A in Berlin, Von Trier was still on the defensive about why he "understands Hitler."

According to Von Trier:
There was a point to this whole thing. I think history shows that we are all Nazis somewhere, and there are a lot of things that can be suddenly set free, and the mechanics behind this setting-free is something we really should really investigate, and the way we do not investigate it is to make it a taboo to talk about it."
To his credit, he did apologize for his initial comments, but it doesn't seem like Von Trier is going to backpedal on the matter any time soon.

Head on over to The Hollywood Reporter to read more on Von Trier's comments, why he casted Kiefer Sutherland in 'Melancholia,' and the sexual deviancy of his upcoming film, 'Nymphomaniac.'

So what do you think about Von Trier's defense of his comments at Cannes?

kids movie quotes Kids say the darnedest things -- especially when it comes to memorable movie quotes. We wanted to take a look back through the decades at some of the most hilarious, touching, unforgettable lines said by kid characters (most are live-action, but there are a few animated characters too). We even asked some of our friends and readers what their favorites were and came up with this list of 25, but it just as easily could have been 50.

And if you notice we paid extra attention to the '80s and '90s, let's just say that's when many of us were growing up; we're sure younger (and older) readers could come up with an entirely different lineup of quotes. Feel free to share them in the comments!

The "King Kong of crime movies" is 20 years old today.

Rolling Stone gave "Pulp Fiction" that moniker upon its release, and it's hard to argue that the name doesn't still ring true two decades later. The Quentin Tarantino classic roared out of the gates after winning the Palme d'Or at Cannes, intertwining tales of violence and redemption in 1990s Los Angeles, much to the delight of the world.

And it seems the world has not forgotten.

"Pulp Fiction" is quoted endlessly even today -- yet it still (somehow) manages to remain fresh. The self-righteousness of Samuel L. Jackson's Jules Winnfield announcing itself at every turn, the quiet calm of Uma Thurman's Mia before the storm, or the deadpan humor of Bruce Willis's Butch.

To honor the 20th anniversary of "Pulp Fiction" and its collection of unforgettable characters and dialogue, here are the 20 best quotes from the crime classic. Ranked.
