Daniel Craig has officially signed on to play journalist Mikael Blomkvist in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and his deal includes options for the second two films in the series. (Meanwhile, the world continues to wait breathlessly for the Lisbeth Salander announcement.) With this part and his role in Cowboys & Aliens, the current James Bond is now involved in three different franchises. Not too shabby. [Deadline] Day and Night: Leah Remini, who was recently named one of the co-hosts of CBS’s new View-like daytime talk show, will also work with the network on a primetime endeavor. The former King of Queens star has signed a development and talent holding deal with CBS to headline a new half-hour comedy project for the network. Meanwhile, Kelly Ripa is just slowly shaking her head and smirking right now, remembering when she thought hosting a morning show by day and acting in a sitcom by night was going to just be a piece of cake. [Deadline] Sarandon's Year: Susan Sarandon has been added to the pilot of HBO’s The Miraculous Year, one of several actors “tapped for guest-starring/potential recurring roles” in the series about a high-powered New York family. The pilot is directed by Kathryn Bigelow and stars Norbert Leo Butz, Frank Langella and Hope Davis. Of course, this year has been anything but miraculous for Sarandon, which makes the whole thing kind of melancholy. [Deadline] Singing Chords: Glee has cast Chord Overstreet in the recurring role of Sam, a football player who “starts off as Finn’s protégé but becomes his competition.” Overstreet, who has previously appeared on iCarly, may very well end up being the boyfriend for Kurt that Ryan Murphy has been promising. And with a name like Chord, this guy really was destined to land on Glee, huh? [Deadline] Man Power: Asger Leth is in negotiations to direct the cop thriller Man on a Ledge, the story of a female psychologist and a “former NYPD officer who threatens to jump to his death.” Sam Worthington is attached to star, though we've learned that doesn't mean all that much. [Variety] Alexander The Terrible: Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum) and 20th Century Fox are developing an adaptation of the childrens’ book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day into a “high-concept family comedy.” The Judith Viorst book, which has never before been adapted for the big screen, will be tackled by screenwriter Rob Lieber. The book revolves around “family members collectively enduring the worst day of their lives," which causes Alexander, the young protagonist, to get so fed up that he threatens to move to Australia. Do whatever you want, Alex, but good luck catching a Justin Bieber show down under!

Source: Vulture | 26 Jul 2010 | 11:51 pm GQ China Recalls July Issue After Controversy Over "Sports Car Club" Story The Chinese edition of GQ recalled its July issue just a day after it hit newsstands, reportedly due to a feature titled "Super Kids Driving Luxury Cars." The story chronicles the lives of six wealthy Chinese twentysomethings who belong to "The Sports Car Club," a group of kids whose main concerns consist of "luxury cars, the latest fashions and whose father has the most money." An article positing that the founder of the Club had threatened to sue GQ over the story was quickly taken from the Global Times' website on Friday, and the official reason for the recall remains a mystery. The story sounds like it was pretty awesome though, filled with nuggets like 22-year-old model Ma Nuo's quip "I'd rather weep in a BMW than smile on a bicycle," and an anecdote involving a man interested in dating an attractive woman until he realized her car "was five years out of fashion." Who recalled this?! These are the kinds of quotes Facebook statuses are made of. GQ China Pulls July Issue [WSJ] Read more posts by Josh Duboff Filed Under: media, china, gq, kids these days

BBC business editor Robert Peston said the pension amount was “bound to be hugely controversial," and that the board feels that because Hayward is leaving by mutual agreement, it is obliged “to honour the terms of its contract with him.” The report also cites a BP source confirming that Hayward is likely to be nominated for a non-executive position at the firm's Russian joint venture. So it appears that not only will Hayward be getting his life back, his restored life will involve an endless stream of money.

Source: Daily Intel | 26 Jul 2010 | 10:17 pm Tom Hardy Steps In for Sam Worthington in This Means War Back in June, we told you that Fox had offered Sam Worthington a starring role in Fox’s McG-directed action/romantic comedy This Means War, but we also warned you that Worthington would likely "sit on the project for awhile and eventually wander off,” considering actors have been bouncing into and out of this project since at least 2001, when it was supposed to star Chris Rock and Martin Lawrence. Well, the Avatar star did wander off (and rather quickly), but now Inception’s Tom Hardy has stepped in and closed — closed, we say! — a deal to star in the spy role that had originally been offered to Worthington. He’ll play one of the spies (opposite Chris Pine) who wage black-ops warfare on each other when they both fall for the same girl (Reese Witherspoon, who’s also producing, along with Will Smith’s company, Overbrook Entertainment).

And in a case of splendid timing, this surge comes after the MTA’s on-time performance hit a three-year low last month, with only 59.8 percent of weekday trains arriving on time. So to summarize: hand sanitizer, a hearing aid and days worth of reading material are all pretty much necessary for riding the subway nowadays.

He had a lot of support. Hitler did far more damage to the Russians than the Jewish people.”

This news could spell trouble for remaining judges Randy, Ellen and Kara as Lythgoe told Zap2It in April, "I would replace the entire judging panel… I don't think it really works replacing one person." Meanwhile, there are some new names to throw into the mix of potential judges, a group which already includes music industry types like Chris Isaak and Harry Connick Jr. Idol producer Simon Fuller is said to be wooing Elton John and Justin Timberlake to join the Idol fun (this seems as good a time as any to reiterate: Justin, please drop everything else and get back in the studio). Meanwhile, Lythgoe’s return to the show just might mean the return of America’s favorite loopy cheerleader.

Source: E! Online (US) - Top Stories | 26 Jul 2010 | 6:03 pm Zac Efron Signs On for the Nicholas Sparks Romance The Lucky One Whether you accept it or not, Zac Efron continues to grow up, slowly morphing from teen idol to straight-up ladies' man: Vulture hears that he is in negotiations to play a former Marine in Warner Bros. forthcoming adaptation of Nicholas Sparks's novel The Lucky One. This would be the seventh Sparks novel to make it to the big screen (just eight more to go!); Efron would play the titular “One,” who returns from three tours in Iraq to (where else?) North Carolina. There he searches for a mysterious woman in a random snapshot he found — a snapshot he believes was his good-luck charm throughout the second Gulf War. The Lucky One is being produced by Sparks's own lucky charm, Denise DiNovi, who'd previously brought the author's Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, and Nights in Rodanthe all to the big screen. We also hear that separately — but in a similar effort to reach a broader, older, audience — Efron recently attached himself to Die in a Gun Fight, a hot new script from recent NYU grads and first-time screenwriters Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari. In the Tarantino-esque blend of Gossip Girl, True Romance, and Romeo and Juliet, Efron would play Ben, an underachieving, deadbeat son of a famous New York high-society attorney who gets himself in over his head when he falls for the daughter of his father's nemesis — a girl who is already busy being stalked by an obsessive French professor. Die is set up with producer Mark Gordon (Saving Private Ryan, Speed) but has yet to find a studio, though we hear it's headed out to directors and financiers shortly.

Source: Vulture | 26 Jul 2010 | 4:50 pm FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: The Mad Men Season Premiere RecapThis is a recap for the Season 4 premiere of Mad Men starring Jon Hamm, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, January Jones, and a bunch of other people whom you can learn about here. If you have not seen the episode then, yeah, this will probably spoil something for you, idiot. Enjoy!
The Ladies Fighting Over Ham. You have to admit, Peggy’s idea to make people buy more canned ham might have been the first time anyone’s ever thought of viral marketing in the history of fake television shows about advertising. Indeed, the idea worked beautifully: Two ladies fought over ham, and the story wormed its way into the papers. But what made this scenario extra-special for us were the actresses hired. Because while most female Mad Men fans picture themselves as a “Joan”, I have enough self-awareness to know that if I were to ever audition for a part on the show I would clearly get cast as “Ham Fighting Lady #2.”
Don Draper wanting to get slapped. While I took issue with his paid ladyfriend’s brassiere and laissez-faire attitude in bed (1. You’re getting paid; 2. You’re getting laid; 3. It’s Don Draper, look alive), his need to get slapped… harder… once again reignited our passions for wanting to climb into our TV screens Mom and Dad Save the World-style and f the s out of this man. Not to mention record the entire event via animated GIFs which would then replay for infinity.
“You hit it off, come Turkey Day, maybe you can stuff her.” — the always imagery-ready Roger Sterling
This bitch. Jane’s friend… Bethenny. Mount Holyoke, Gymnastics, Borrowed Dress blah. blah. blah. Maybe it was just me, but I found her completely intolerable. Maybe even worse than the famously annoying teacher from last season. (OK, not worse.) And if her WASPyness wasn’t stifling enough, she then had the nerve to turn down Don’s advances in the cab. (Yet more proof that I wasn’t raised properly.) Why can’t Don just find a normal woman to desecrate?
If you didn’t quite understand the whole “John/Marsha” exchange between Peggy and the new guy Joey (we’ll get to him in a second), above is the video that the exchange was based on, a comedic exchange performed by Stan Freberg. The Youtube uploader claims it may have influenced John Lennon & Yoko Ono’s “John and Yoko.” We say it definitely in influenced Jan on The Brady Bunch. Also things must have been hilarious in the 1950s. UPDATE: Commenter Alea points out that the exchange was based on this commercial… and we have to agree with her, this would probably make more sense! Thanks for bringing it to our attention:
OK, we may hate this girl, but having forced ourselves to watch Don kiss her in the back of the cab in slow motion, we had no choice but to grab our nearest Louis Farrakhan forehead-kerchief and take a quick breather at work. Really, it’s well worth the $1.99 on Itunes just to be able to control this kiss at your whim.
Joey. Holy lord. Something tells us Peggy’s secret Pete lovechild is going to have a new lovechild sibling to play with this season. Joey is played by Matt Long, who you won’t remember from the show Jack & Bobby because it was canceled after .078 seconds of screentime. Glad to have you back actor we’ve never really seen or heard from before.
Don Draper. Seriously Don, she made you some pork chops and moved your shoe shine kit. Why you gotta be such a d*ck sometimes? You know maybe if you were a little nicer you could have spent Thanksgiving with her family instead of with a hired vagina.
Matthew Weiner, you done messed up this time. You write a maid into your script and don’t hire Hollywood’s favorite actress to play a maid Lupe Ontiveros? Erroneous.
Betty. UGHHHHUH. First of all, she has no personality. On top of it, she’s horrible to her own children. Cannot waittttt for Henry to dump this broad.
Kiernan Shipka, aka Sally Draper. If you read this blog, you know that we had sort of had it with her speech impedimenting. But this season, Sally has returned as a more mature tiny actress, the lisp is gone, and most importantly, she hates her mother. Welcome BACK, Sally. We look forward to the sh*t you shall stir.
“So how are your balls? You enjoying yourself?” — Draper’s Attorney. Indeed, we think he is.
FINAL THOUGHTS: Great first episode, super-60s, and setting up a lot of fun stuff to come this season. We’re feelin’ the changes: New offices, new characters, new things for Don to completely f*ck up, over, or actually fix. What did you guys think?

Source: Vulture | 26 Jul 2010 | 4:30 pm John Mayer Accuses Rainn Wilson Of Joke Thievery
Whether it’s been Joe Rogan vs. Carlos Mencia or Patton Oswalt vs. The Yale Valedictorian Who Plagiarized Him, we here at Best Week Ever have always paid close to the dirty world of joke theft. And now, none other than John Mayer is accusing one Rainn Wilson, the not-so-popular-choice to be the next head of The Office, of thieving one of his friends’ jokes on Twitter! On a post he wrote on his Tumblr site earlier today titled “Show Your Notes,” John Mayer presented some pretty compelling evidence that Rainn Wilson had stolen a joke that was originally penned by Jordan Rubin and posted to his Twitter account. The original joke, which was originally posted back on April 10 and was viewed over 100,000 times, was a Photoshopped look at Rubin’s inbox, one that was meant to convey how dashing and important Rubin is. Not necessarily hilarious, mind you, but it was something that Mayer claims Rubin worked long and hard on. Then, just yesterday, Wilson posted THE EXACT SAME IMAGE on his Wilson’s Tumblr site without any attribution whatsoever. The evidence is, as you might expect, below: Is this thievery? We wouldn’t go that far. There are lots of pictures floating around the internet that are impossible to “credit.” We don’t think that Wilson is guilty of joke thievery but, rather, of being a tad bit negligent when it comes to attribution. We’re of the mindset that he probably should’ve at least said WHERE he got the image from, even if it wasn’t from Rubin’s original tweet. We highly doubt that Wilson saw Rubin’s tweet all those months ago, twirled his mustache like a villain from the silent movies and then plotted when and how he would take credit for someone else’s joke. That’s where Mayer goes too far, not stopping to consider that: Instead of blasting Wilson publicly, Mayer should’ve simply sent him an email/DM/text — all famous people have each other’s contact information, right? — and asked him to make a correction (or, at the very least, throw some love to Rubin on his Twitter or Tumblr). However, Mayer let his emotions, once again, get the best of him, which resulted in Wilson’s public shame smearing. So, Best Week Ever readers, what say you? Did Wilson “steal” a joke? Did Mayer go too far? Are you on Team Wilson or Team Mayer? Hit us in the comments! Source: Best Week Ever | 26 Jul 2010 | 4:30 pm Real Housewives of D.C.

The NYPD's Internal Affairs Bureau has found that deputy inspector Valentim Neves had an affair with an underling and lied about it under oath. This is very bad, especially since much of the boots-knocking went on during business hours. Both parties will likely be dismissed, and Neves is also under investigation for corruption, so there's that. But all that said, Internal Affairs actually sounds kind of impressed by the sheer amount of times these two did it: There were "well in excess of 100" hookups, according to their report. "So many ... both on and off duty, in and out of department facilities, including vehicles," that Neves "told investigators he couldn't even begin to give them a number." Must have been the uniforms.

Source: The Cut | 26 Jul 2010 | 2:20 pm The Toyota Camry Good Will Hunting Hidden Math Challenge
1.) The Boller family bought a new 1997 Camry. I can’t be positive, but I think we’re supposed to assume that means it was, in fact, purchased in 1997. 2.) When the older daughter turned 16, she got the Camry 3.) The older daughter drove the Camry for 9 years until… 4.) The younger daughter turned 16, and then she got the Camry and was like, “Yessssssss!” 5.) The son hopes that in the future he will get the new 2010 Camry Hybrid the Boller parents just bought. Check it out: Unfortunately, this is not enough information to precisely nail down all of their ages. But here’s what we can figure out from the data. The absolute oldest that the older daughter could possibly be right now is 29. That, however, is presupposing that she turned 16 in 1997, the same year her parents got their first Camry. Though that specific scenario is highly unlikely, we can’t rule it out entirely. So that’s where we’re stuck with her upper age limit — the older daughter is no more than 29 years of age.
We also know that the older daughter drove the car for 9 years and then gave it to her sister who had by then reached the age of 16. That means there is a 9 year age difference between the two. That puts the younger sister at no more than 20 years of age at the current moment. And given that 9 year age difference and knowing that the younger daughter is currently driving the car, we can also surmise for both daughters a lower age limit. The most recently the younger daughter could have received the Camry would be this year which would make her youngest possible current age 16 and the older sister’s youngest possible current age 25. When it comes to the son, we have too few necessary figures. He is a mystery. All we know for sure is that he is below the legal driving age, probably by a couple of years. So, to review: 25 < Older Daughter < 29 16< Younger Daughter <20 Son significantly < 16. BUT WAIT! THERE’S A HIDDEN PASSAGE WAY TO MORE CLUES!! You might not have noticed, but on the YouTube version of the commercial, this happens at the 00:31 mark:
“Want to see the Bollers’ whole story?” You’re goddamn right I do. When you click on that link, it leads you to another video that has a treasure trove of math hints and songs about it being “time to get uuuuuuuuuuuuup!” First of all, awesome family, guys. I don’t know how to not sound sarcastic here, but the Bollers actually seem like a ton of fun. But that’s not what this is about. This is about the math. We find out from this video that, though the Camry is a 1997 model, it was actually bought in 1996. Not cool, Toyota. That is critical information I could have used in the for-TV commercial. Now we have to adjust all of our original numbers to account for your negligent omission. 25 < Older Daughter < 30 16 < Younger Daughter < 21 Son = still some indeterminate age < 16 Anyway, we learn that in 1996, the younger daughter was 3. And we can assume it was late 1996 because the next year’s car models were already out, so that puts her currently at 17 or, at the very least, on the last few months of her 16th year. I guess she pretty recently got the Camry. Congratulations, younger sister! And the older sister is 9 years her senior so that makes her 26. Then BOOM! Right at the end, the mom just tells us the son is 14. We did it, you guys. Older Daughter : 26 Younger Daughter: 17 Son: 14 The math problem is solved. We all deserve a free Camry.
If anyone noticed any math errors, please feel free to correct me. Also, you get so many bonus points if you can somehow pin down the parents’ ages.

While most would argue that Debbie Gibson “won” their battle back in the day, Tiffany has been determined to win the war for all-time cultural supremacy. To wit, Tiffany posed in Playboy way back in 2002, a feat which Gibson went on to copy some three years later. Advantage Tiffany? Not so fast! As a means of settling this grudge match once and for all, the two recently flashed their claws for a no holds barred catfight on the SyFy Channel as part of the movie, Mega Python vs. Gatoroid.

Source: The Cut | 26 Jul 2010 | 2:00 pm Minister in the U.K. Pushes to Ban Photoshopping and Underweight Models U.K. equalities minister Lynne Featherstone will hold a series of meetings with fashion magazines and advertisers to discuss ways to promote images of healthy bodies to young people. Featherstone believes underweight models shouldn't be shot for ads and editorials, and that the images shouldn't be retouched. She would like to see health warnings on digitally altered images so viewers know they aren't real. "Advertisers and magazine editors have a right to publish what they choose, but women and girls also have the right to be comfortable in their own bodies. At the moment, they are being denied that," she said. Featherstone praised curvaceous Mad Men star Christina Hendricks:
Of course, Featherstone makes good points: It would be nice to know what exactly has been altered in all the images of sexy ladies (and gentlemen) we see every day; it would also be nice to see some size 6 chicks mixed in with the size zeros and (of late) size 10s. But with her proposals, Featherstone wades into tricky territory about what should and shouldn't be legislated by the government. Many models are very thin naturally, not by way of eating disorders, so it's not fair to say all size zero girls are unwell. And is it the government's job to instill body confidence in people? How are they to really know that it's as dreadfully interfering in the lives of its citizens as they suggest? Is it the government's job to fix it and make people happy, like a giant therapist? If Featherstone is so concerned about healthy role models, why wouldn't she also want to regulate, say, 16-year-old pop tarts who run around with side boob and V-cleavage? That kind of imagery might also send the nation's youth down self-destructive paths ... paths with not only self-doubt, but also fake leather panty-shorts and other things that are unsightly as well as unseemly.

Source: FOXNews.com | 26 Jul 2010 | 11:00 am Fistfuls Of Bacon Is Too Much Bacon
First of all, let me say this: I love Sunac. And by that, I mean I hate it a whole ton, but it is open 24 hours and is two blocks from my place. I rarely go there before 2:00 AM, but for some reason or another I went there on Friday to grab a sandwich for lunch at a normal lunch time. And I got totally bacon f*cked. I decided I wanted a BLT. BLTs are special sandwiches. They take what is normally a topping meat and turn it into the main focus of a meal. What a good idea for a thing! I grabbed a BLT wrap from the pre-made sandwich section of the store. I purchased it and took it over to a corner where there were tables and chairs next to floor-to-ceiling windows. Sitting in the sunbathed eat-in section, I tore some of the tortilla off the end of the wrap from which I was about to eat. In general, I will do this with a burrito or a wrap for the first bite so I don’t end up with a whole mouthful of plain tortilla, and on this particular occasion I did it perfectly. I removed excess tortilla while still leaving the insides entirely enveloped. I then took a large bite. I got no T and I go no L. What I got instead was a huge load of B. Assuming that the inner ingredients has simply shifted in transit thereby causing some sort of bacon displacement, I took another bite. Same result as before — a face stuffed with bacon and only bacon. I then unwrapped the wrap to reveal a nightmare. There was a single leaf of lettuce, two thin slices of tomato and A PILE OF BACON THE SIZE OF TWO FISTS. They had given me what was essentially a log of bacon lightly garnished with a tortilla. I left in a normal amount of bacon and removed the rest. What I’m about to show you below is terrifying, so make sure you’re prepared. Below is just the amount of bacon I had to REMOVE to make my BLT wrap halfway undisgusting.
F*cking. Gross. That is way too much bacon. I love bacon, but nobody wants to get a mouthful of bacon the same way you get a mouthful of apple when you bite into a granny smith. Sunac screwed up what should have been a really easy to make sandwich. And it ruined bacon for me; I can still taste bacon in my sinuses. (Wraps are sandwiches, by the way. I’m not blowing anyone’s mind by saying that, am I?) Source: Best Week Ever | 26 Jul 2010 | 11:00 am Christina Applegate Leads the Happy Pack at the "Cats & Dogs" Premiere (Fashion Wire Daily)
Source: Yahoo! News: Fashion News | 26 Jul 2010 | 10:36 am 10 Things I Learned From Comic-Con 2010If you’re ever planning to attend San Diego Comic-Con, here are ten things to keep in mind, learned firsthand from someone who’s been to the New York Con several times and still ended up vastly unprepared:
Imagine a place where every event that occurs is a brand new Disney World roller coaster that just opened that morning, and if you do manage to arrive superhumanly early and wait out the line, you have an outside chance of possibly getting to ride that roller coaster, and also that roller coaster is the producer of Bones talking about what it’s like to hang out on set with T.J. Thyne. When I got back to my hotel room afterward, there was a line for the minibar!!!!!! HEYYYYY I get no Comics respect I tell ya… Someone is perpetually taking a photo of whatever is behind you, at all times, no matter where you are located or in which direction you’re heading. If you use a urinal, you are peeing into someone’s photo. If you’re eating something, you are literally eating that person’s photo. This will happen to you, intentional or not. For as huge and unwieldy as the Comic-Con crowds are, they’re also completely sober and thus entirely considerate (save one unfortunate pen mishap). This leaves the 9,000 security people extremely bored, so they pass their time by telling you you’re not allowed to sit along the wall next to the snack bar where you just bought your food, and you must eat your food standing up. Meanwhile, this dude is walking around totally unmolested:
“Whoaaaaaa there, guy with the sniper rifle in a roomful of 10,000 people – you’re gonna have to eat those fries slightly more off the ground!” Boba Fett? Classic. Ramona Flowers? Timely. Spider-Man? Might as well put “Stairway To Heaven” on a mix for a girl you’re trying to impress.
If you’re reading this, you are already too late to get into the 2011 Saturday panels. If you didn’t get in line for the 2012 Saturday panels in the middle of that last sentence, that’s out the window too. Now you’re just gonna have to wait to find out who’s playing Vision in the Avengers sequel until the entire internet Tweets it one one-trillionth of a second after it’s announced like the rest of us.
I ripped on Superman Returns mercilessly when it came out, and on Brandon Routh in particular, but after seeing him in person, I also cast him in Superman. You can’t just see him and not cast him in Superman. Most of my San Diego friends despise the Con, as it triples their work commutes and renders downtown San Diego uninhabitable for days, but that doesn’t mean the local bars and restaurants will pass up the opportunity to shamelessly pander to the crowd:
Comic book dudes on the menu? Let’s get some of that superhero food cause I like that! Then we’ll pick up some of these:
Not many takers for the Clash of the Titans “Get Stoned By Medusa” face-painting tent. Not visible in the photo: “Bad Romance” blasting.
