ALIEN was released 47 years ago today. H. R. Giger’s disturbing biomechanical designs were considered so unsettling during production that parts of the set reportedly made cast and crew physically uncomfortable while filming.

STRANGE BREW (1983) Bob and Doug McKenzie share their low-budget, sci-fi "movie with the movie" titled The Mutants of 2051 A.D.

We have heard from numerous people who have worked with him, Russell Crowe is very fair and very cool, but if you push him, he will more than push back! And honestly, that's the way it should be, because people can be so obnoxious and awful to celebrities.

William Powell on working with Myrna Loy in "The Thin Man" (1934): "Any actor who has a chance to play opposite Myrna is a lucky guy. 'The Thin Man’ (1934) would never have been the success it was without Myrna. She has the give and take of acting that brings out the best. When we do a scene together we forget about technique and lights and camera angles and microphones; we aren’t acting at all — we are just two people in perfect harmony with nothing better to do than discuss life and love and things over a pot of coffee. Many times, particularly in the old silent days, I have played with an actress who seemed to be separated from me by a plate glass window; there was no contact at all; as far as I was concerned she might just as well have done her scene in Halifax while I did mine in South Africa and the two pasted together on a split screen. Ah me, those were my worst performances. Myrna, unlike a lot of actresses who think only of themselves, has the happy faculty of being able to listen while the other fellow says his lines. Did you know that you had to learn the art of listening before you could become a good actress? Myrna is the best ‘listener’ I know." ("The Great William Powell", Elizabeth Wilson, Screenland, 1936) P.S: On this day, 92 years ago, W.S. Van Dyke's "The Thin Man" (1934) was released in the USA.

Round 1 has concluded in the #LateNightTVTalkShowHosts Tournament. Tom Snyder pulled away from Craig Ferguson in the closest race of the day. All the higher seeds prevailed. But will that hold true for Round 2 on Wednesday?

During the ‘Home Improvement’ finale curtain call, the full face of Earl Hindman, who played Tim's neighbor, Wilson, was finally revealed

Bradley Cooper gained about 40 pounds in roughly 10–12 weeks for American Sniper. He ate 6,000 calories per day, trained 4 hours daily with heavy weightlifting “My main thing, after each take, the only thing I would ask anybody, ‘Hey man, am I too big?’
