Jesse Tyler Ferguson pulled out all the stops for his husband Justin Mikita’s 32nd birthday.
On Saturday the Modern Family star hosted a dinner for 25 at his Los Angeles home, where his guests became the first diners to sample Chef Helene An’s new menu from the newly redesigned Crustacean Beverly Hills, which will reopen this December.
Menu standouts included a tuna egg rolls topped with caviar that looked like cigars and were presented in smoking cigar boxes, a vegan crab cake, and An’s world-famous garlic noodles and garlic-roasted crab.

Six woman turned the tables on a man who they claim scheduled back-to-back dates with them all on the same night at the same location.
Lisette Pylant, 26, said she recently showed up at a Washington, D.C. bar for a date with a man named Justin. She soon learned that she wasn’t the only one the lothario invited out that evening.
“As soon as Kristen and Raven showed up, we decided it was too ridiculous not to share,” Pyalnt said during a Wednesday appearance on Good Morning America. “If this was happening to us it might be happening to other people too.

Being one of the biggest pop stars in the world, Justin Bieber is naturally a fashion trendsetter. Much like the KarJenners, while many may scoff at his daily ensembles, a surprising amount of Justin’s particular sartorial brand manages to trickle down to the masses over time nonetheless. For example, those drop-crotch harem pants that once upon a time the singer wouldn’t be caught dead without, his passion for every and any streetwear brand, ripped up flannel shirts, and prescription-less wire-rim glasses. Although to be fair, there’s also plenty of fashion risks he’s taken that haven’t paid off,...

Cate Blanchett is more than thrilled to be Thor's first female villain in Thor: Ragnarok, and as sweet as she appears in interviews, she seems to relish in this role. In an interview with EW, they ask Blanchett to explain how she feels about being Hela - The Goddess of Death.
“I think that’s where you put the period in the sentence, right? She arrives with a lot of baggage. She’s a little bit cross. She’s been locked away for millennia, getting more and more cross, and then, with a mistake, she get unleashed and she ain’t getting back in that box."
Most of the roles she has played, she has been a darling, and usually has some type of love interest. But that is not the only reason she wanted to play Hela.

Well, it didn’t take long for Riverdale — The CW’s moody, sexy new take on the classic Archie comics — to get dark, did it?
Thursday’s series premiere opens with aspiring novelist Jughead telling us how the town of Riverdale’s innocent exterior hides some nasty secrets. One of those secrets: the fate of high-school jock Jason Blossom, who vanished on the Fourth of July after an early-morning rowboat ride with his sister Cheryl. (Oh c’mon, like you didn’t take early-morning rowboat rides with your siblings growing up.) Cheryl is later found drenched on the riverside, and Jason is missing.

Oscar contenders can be the auteur, the veteran, the journeyman who’s elevated his craft. However, perhaps the most exciting breed is the Breakout, and that’s Damien Chazelle.
He’s not a rookie. His second feature, “Whiplash” (Sony Pictures Classics), scored a shocking five nominations including Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay (from his short), Editing, Sound Mixing, and a win for Supporting Actor J.K. Simmons.
However, following that breakout success is often a tall order for young directors, whose celebration is often followed by a morass of dealmaking and development hell.
That wasn’t Chazelle’s fate. With critically hailed fall festival hit “La La Land” (Lionsgate, December 9), Chazelle magically modernizes the colorful swirl of Jacques Demy French song-and-dance musicals “The Umbrellas of Cherbourg” and “Les Desmoiselles de Rochefort” along with backstage showbiz romantic musicals such as “New York, New York” or Gene Kelly-starrer “Singin’ in the Rain.” In “La La Land,...

If you blew your last paycheck at some point between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, don't worry - celebrities couldn't resist the good sales, either. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel were seen taking advantage of the insane holiday prices in NYC on Sunday, where they sweetly strolled arm in arm through the city. Justin has been busy globetrotting over the past few months to promote his latest film, Trolls, but it seems like he and Jessica make an effort to see each other regardless of their busy schedules. The Justin Timberlake and the Tennessee Kids star recently took a break from his press tour to stop by the set of Jessica's new movie, Shock and Awe, in New Orleans, where he planted a steamy kiss on his wife, and in early November, the couple traded in their Winter gear for bathing suits during a picturesque trip to the Caribbean.

Last week, I attended Paramount's Star Trek Beyond junket in Beverly Hills. I'll have a one on one interview with star and co-writer Simon Pegg coming up on the site later today, so keep your eyes peeled for that, but in the meantime, I wanted to share some of what went down at the press conference. Chris Pine, Karl Urban, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, John Cho, director Justin Lin, co-writer Doug Jung, producer J.J. Abrams, producer Lindsey Weber, and Pegg were all present, and over the course of two panels and about an hour and fifteen minutes, they answered questions from the assembled press. Here are some of the best moments:
On the approach of writing this movie:
Pegg: We wanted to try and create a hybrid of an episode of the original series with a spectacular cinematic event. These Star Trek movies have always been event films. With a TV series,...

We wanted to let everyone get their hopes and getting "50 Shades of Grey" out of your system before we completely ruined Valentines with awful memories of hearts being crushed to a pulp. So, we caught up with current and future Latino filmmakers we actually do love! We asked them about their worst dates (because we love bringing up the past.) Their fave love story and anyone in the movies they’ve crush on. Give them so ‘Follows’!
Daniel Armando – (Filmmaker) What It Was
Worst Valentine's date: There's a Valentine's date I remember and it wasn't because it was a bad date, but because it was a realization I had. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and the stroll through the park was lovely. It was the ideal perfect Valentine's date, but I was slowly realizing that it was with someone who didn't feel the same way I did. I felt bad because I wish I had spent it with someone who did feel the same way and who I truly loved. A romantic film that comes to mind is Forrest Gump. The love that Forrest had for Jenny is amazingly beautiful. Through all the excitement, confusion, and chaos that surrounded his life the one thing he was sure about was his calm, simple, and never-ending love for Jenny. He's not a smart man, but he knows what love is.

My favorite cinematic love story is 'The Terminator'. Yes, it's an amazing Sci-Fi/Action film but at the core it's a love story: A man travels back in time to save the woman he fell in love with via a photo that was given to him by his unbeknownst son. His future was 2029, which isn't too far away and interestingly enough, people nowadays fall in love via photos on Instagram. If a man traveled back in time to be with me you can bet I would never terminate that relationship. Lol. I did try online dating once and the guy was not the same from the pictures on his profile. After some small talk, I said to him, "I'll be back." But unlike The Terminator, I didn't come back. Instead I hauled ass out of there.

Years ago I went out with this fella who tried to impress me with money – never a good idea. He picked me up in (his sister’s) Range Rover. He was in med school and broke down how much money he was going to make each year following his graduation. Dude pretty much talked about himself the whole date. To top it off, based on his suggestion, we went to a restaurant but he barely ate because he’d already eaten. Nothing a girl loves more than to be stuffing her face alone on a first date! The conversation was lacking, but I do remember the food was delicious! I don’t have a favorite love story that comes to mind; I just love ‘love.’ I love seeing my friends in love – love seeing them honored and appreciated. So those are my favorite love stories the ones in which the people I care for most are receiving the absolute best.
Noah played by Ryan Gosling in The Notebook. Say what you want, but I love that movie! Here’s a man who was fun, kind, passionate, crafty, and insanely loyal. (And very easy on the eyes!)

Not so much "bad date," more like no chemistry date. I didn't necessarily go to a breakup album, but rather to specific songs that reminded me of the person and would ironically make me feel even more nostalgic. Cuando Te Beso, Juan Luis Guerra, Negra Murguera, from Argentine band Bersuit Vergarabat, lots of Concha Buika and Amy Winehouse (just 'cause) and old School Mecano. Mecano has a song about "how hard it's to forget him"... I must have listened to that song thousands of times.
The Bridges of Madison County is definitely one my favorite romantic films of all times, and you need some serious ice cream eating at that scene where Francesca (the luminous Meryl Streep) holds the door knob and is fighting not to open it as Clint Eastwood places the necklace with the cross on the mirror. Ufff, I always cry with that scene.
Some of my film crushes are Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Benicio del Toro and Edgar Ramirez. I guess it's a combination of looks and their raw talent. Absolute best.

I have some favorite love story moments. One of them is in Tim Burton’s Ed Wood, when he goes on a first date with Kathy played by Patricia Arquette. They're in this little car in the Spook House when in the middle of the ride, the lights go out. As they wait, in that silence, he turns to her and tells her that he likes to dress as a woman, wear women’s sweaters and undergarments. She's a little confused. She asks him if that means he doesn’t like sex with women. “No!” he tells her, he loves sex with women. She takes it in, and after a moment she acceptingly says, “Okay.” The lights go on, the ride starts up again, and they continue through the Spook House. It’s such a sweet moment of acceptance, the permission to be who we are. It’s so sweet and simple and so elegantly done.
Worst date: It was a first date and after he kissed me -- a sweet kiss -- he told me he was trying to kick heroin.
Celebrity crush: On this Valentine's I would have to choose Warren Oates. Tell me if you -- man or woman -- don't have a crush on him after seeing him in The Wild Bunch, Badlands, Cockfighter, and Two-Lane Blacktop.

Hmm this is kind of a hard one because I've always managed somehow to not have a love interest on Cupid's Day of Love! But I guess I would have to go with 8th grade, a boy named Michael gave me an empty heart box :(...he had eaten all the chocolates!!!
A very particular breakup had me crushed around the holidays, and when Kelly Clarkson came out with her album My December I couldn't put it down. I realized that she was going through a really difficult breakup as well when she wrote the beautiful songs and it made me even closer to the words. Kelly, you helped me see the light girl!!!
Oooo there are just too many crushes I can't decide!!! But, forever and always Mr. Justin Timberlake will stand the test of time for me. I mean, what can't he do?? I tend to have talent crushes often and Justin's voice, dance skills, wit, and obvious gorgeous looks...well, damn God must have spent a little more time on you Jt!! Haha. Loving him since those *Nsync platinum blonde hair days, congratulations to little miss Jessica Biel!!

I don't think I've been on a really bad date on Valentine's, I've just been alone which is bad enough lol.... But the worst date?? This was a first date. I think he was really trying to impress me but was saying all the wrong things. All he talked about was material things. Like how he had a speed boat, Mercedes, etc... He went on to talk about how much money he made the previous year and how the current year he was going to surpass that amount. Maybe for most women they would've been impressed but I never returned his call or text again. Celebrity crush? ...Brad Pitt! Ever since I watched Legends of the Fall and A River Runs Through It I fell in love with the state of Montana. In fact, the main reason why I started dating my current boyfriend was because he was born and raised from Montana. So, I have to give Brad Pitt the credit there, Lol! I absolutely love nature. I love hiking and camping...Someday, Montana will be my home.

I'm curious what the consensus will be in ten to twenty years, once we look back and evaluate the movies of 2014. It seems I continually see people referring to it as either a great year or a terrible year with little in-between. Were you to judge the year on the quality of the mainstream studio features I could see where you might be disappointed. It wasn't exactly the best year for blockbuster cinema. Hell, Christopher Nolan even came out with a new big budget film and it didn't even make it onto my list of Honorable Mentions. However, you look at the mini majors and smaller distributros, studios such as A24, Fox Searchlight, Sony Classics and Open Road and things begin to perk up, but these studios don't market their films on every channel so at the end of the year when people are asking me "what movies they should...

We know that "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" Frank Grillo is set to return in future Marvel films and will reprise his role of Brock Rumlow, who becomes the villain Crossbones. Grillo himself is keeping mum though as says he knows "less then (sic) nothing" about his part in the future Marvel's cinematic universe.
Now, Variety reporter Justin Kroll has tweeted that the "Kingdom" and "Warrior" actor has a more vital role to play in the third "Captain America" film than you might expect. In fact, he may be the film's primary antagonist:
Beat by Marvel in that one, two things he will play villain but not main one, Crossbones still main

It began as a Kickstarter campaign, raising $43,406, and now Alan Hicks' documentary Keep On Keepin' On has won the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival and been picked up by Radius-twc for distribution later this year. Produced by Quincy Jones you know there is going to be an Oscar push for this one, which comes with the following synopsis: In his melodic debut, Australian director Hicks spent four years following the charming and sometimes poignant mentorship between jazz-legend Clark Terry and blind piano prodigy, Justin Kaulflin, during a pivotal moment in each of their lives. At eighty-nine years old, 'Ct' has played alongside Duke Ellington and Count Basie; his pupils include Miles Davis and Quincy Jones, but his most unlikely friendship is with Justin, a 23-year-old with uncanny talent but debilitating nerves. As Justin prepares for a competition that could jumpstart his budding career, Ct's failing health threatens his own.

Weinstein boutique label RADiUS-twc has acquired both worldwide rights and remake rights for director Al Hicks' music doc "Keep On Keepin' On," winner of the Audience Award at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival. Do we have the next "20 Feet From Stardom" in our midst? Produced by Paula DuPre' Pesman ("The Cove," "Chasing Ice") and seven-time Oscar nominee Quincy Jones, the film also picked up Tribeca's Best New Documentary Director prize for first-timer Hicks. Funded partly on Kickstarter, the film spans four years in the lives of jazz legend and pioneer Clark Terry and Justin Kaulflin, a blind piano prodigy. As Kaulflin prepares for a career-altering competition, Terry's health begins to wane, and these pivotal moments become the center of an inspirational and iconic story. The acquisition of "Keep On Keepin' On" was inked by RADiUS Evp Dan Guando and co-presidents Tom Quinn and Jason Janego. RADiUS has been busily picking up...

He’s not the most popular pop star these days, and Justin Bieber is the butt of a new joke on a billboard in Chicago, Illinois.
Referencing the 2014 Winter Olympic Hockey semifinal game between Team USA and Team Canada, the sign says “Loser Keeps Bieber.”
Since Justin lives in America but is actually a Canadian citizen, he constantly flip flops across our northern border and after his slew of questionable snafus as of late, many patriots fear his presence is detrimental to the country.
The Command Transportation (the company who owns the billboard) Twitter account also added fuel to the fire- “Nothing is higher than the stakes of tomorrow’s game.”...

Selena Gomez who? Justin Bieber is seemingly doing everything he can to prove he is single by partying with numerous girls in New York City. While in the Big Apple, he was rejected by a blonde, but then proceeded to move on to a brunette!
Justin Bieber loves his late night parties — almost just as much as he loves women! Now that Selena Gomez has said she is “definitely single,” Justin seems to be reacting in a not-so-sad way — he’s partying with tons of pretty girls! Is this his way of saying he’s “definitely single” too?

Right! It’s another caffeine fuelled night ahead of us as we prepare to liveblog the 84th Academy Awards.
The Artist is the favourite to scoop up the awards tonight, which would round off a grand few days for Michel Hazanavicius and his silent film which run rampant through the Cesars and Independent Spirit awards but we may see Martin Scorsese’s Hugo do well with Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Meryl Streep and Viola Davis front runners for the acting awards.
Whether you agree with the relevance and importance of the Oscars it is the one night of the year when a huge amount of people are talking and celebrating movies, and that can only be a good thing. Debate will begin with the first award and continue with every golden envelope opened.
So, join us below, or on Twitter at @HeyUGuys for our take on film’s biggest night.

You just have to love end of year lists. Well, you don’t have to I suppose, but they are good fun to compile. Of course, they do get complicated with regards to the actual official release date. In fact it was just last week that myself and the hairy one Justin Laliberty were discussing this very thing. So, when it comes to my list the films have had either theatrical, DVD/Blu-ray (first time and not re-issues) releases or have yet to have releases outside of screeners or a festival showing.
With all that being said, below are my favorite non-horror films of 2011. Any quotes are taken from my reviews (if I reviewed them).

The so-in-love couple thrills fans by eating a no-frills meal at the delicious chain! Justin Bieber loves to take Selena Gomez on extravagant dates, but on their trip to Brazil together they had a casual meal at a local Outback Steakhouse! Justin, 17, and Selena, 19, went to the location in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Oct. 7, local fan site iGirl reports. The friendly couple apparently treated the wait staff -- and the increasingly frenzied fans -- with plenty of love and respect. They must have been in a great mood because of their delicious meal, which included steak, Caesar salad, burgers, macaroni and cheese, chicken fingers and a brownie with ice cream! What do you think, HollywoodLifers -- is this their most romantic date ever?

Who will enter the “Twilight Zone?” According to Variety, Warner Brothers is considering directors Christopher Nolan, Michael Bay and Alfonso Cuaron to helm the science-fiction film. In addition, director David Yates is also on the short list for possible additional directors on the project, but the interest in him may be declining. Unlike the previous 1983 film which used a few well-known directors and mini-stories, the new version will feature one storyline and one director at the helm. In the 1983’s “Twilight Zone,” the directors included Steven Spielberg, John Landis, Joe Dante and George Miller. Variety’s Justin Kroll believes Nolan is a front-runner to get an offer from Warner Brothers due to his relationship with the studio. A dark horse also emerged with director Rupert Wyatt, who recently directed “Rise of the Planet of the Apes,” which garnered good reviews and $400 million worldwide at the box office. So who will it finally be?...

Well this is an interesting little news nugget as Variety reports Christopher Nolan, Michael Bay and Alfonso Cuaron are circling a new Twilight Zone film for Warner Bros. with Rupert Wyatt (Rise of the Planet of the Apes) and David Yates (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1). Obviously, much like the 1983 edition, which featured four segments directed by Joe Dante (Gremlins), John Landis (An American Werewolf in London ), George Miller (The Road Warrior) and Steven Spielberg (Close Encounters of the Third Kind), Warner Bros. is chasing down big name talent, but the difference here will be that this Twilight Zone will not be a multi-director feature, but rather one film from one director.
Variety's Justin Kroll reports that Nolan, who's in the midst of shooting The Dark Knight Rises, is the studio's obvious number one choice, and why wouldn't he be? However, it's unclear as to whether he'll...

Variety/Showblitz is reporting that Warner Bros. is looking into a brand new Twilight Zone film, reviving a franchise of TV shows and films which began in 1959. WB is reportedly looking at several big name directors to helm the film, among them Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight), Michael Bay (Transformers) and Rupert Wyatt (Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes). Harry Potter director David Yates is also reportedly being considered as well. Mutual interest is brewing between WB and at least three individuals: Christopher Nolan, Michael Bay and Alfonso Cuaron, Variety's Justin Kroll exclusively reports. There’s also a dark horse in the mix: Rupert Wyatt, whose Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes drew rave reviews and more than $400 million worldwide. Variety goes on to say that Nolan has emerged as the front-runner, but there's a possibility that he won't take it due to the similarities of The Twilight...

Movies about mates are popular as The Inbetweeners holds top spot and Friends With Benefits debuts in second place
The winner
Having experienced consistent and relatively mild week-to-week drops of 34%, 35% and 35%, The Inbetweeners Movie suffers its biggest fall to date, 42% down on the previous weekend. But with £39.43m in the tank so far, no one associated with the film is going to be too disappointed, especially since the homegrown hit once again tops the chart. With four weeks at the top spot, The Inbetweeners Movie shares the winner's podium with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 for longest run at the chart summit in 2011. Significant blockbusters such as Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and The Hangover: Part II only managed a week apiece.
The smash comedy is now about £5.6m behind the total achieved by The King's Speech earlier this year (£45m). At this point, it's...

Michael Chabon has been a busy writer of late -- kind of like the American Neil Gaiman -- and this weekend was no exception. The Hollywood Reporter has an exclusive, stating that Chabon has agreed to pen a new draft of the Jon Favreau helmed Magic Kingdom. I imagine the pitch for Disney's upcoming action/adventure flick went a little something like this:
"So, the plot is Night at the Museum, only it's set in a Walt Disney owned theme park (meaning it won't cost you a dime), and the director is the guy who made Zathura!"
I imagine if I was a suit at House of Mouse, and I heard that a pitch along those lines, I would be a fool not to get that greenlit, and quick. Really, any Disney employee who didn't have that basic premise in mind after two Smithsonian-set flicks were huge successes should be ashamed of themselves.
