The folks at our sister site
Cinematical are working hard to give you news and reviews of the best -- and worst -- the silver screen has to offer. Here are some of their musings on the latest blockbusters, indies, and everything in between:
- My Big Fat Greek Wedding stars, Nia Vardalos and John Corbett are teaming up again in a new rom-com.
- I had absolutely no recollection of The Fugitive's trailer, but watching it again makes me understand why Cinematical included it as a Terrific Trailer.
- While a good movie, I found Lars and the Real Girl to be quite disturbing. So the fact that The Beaver is being compared to it, involves a hand puppet and may star Jim Carrey? Frankly, I'm terrified.
- I haven't gotten a chance to see Wolverine yet, but according to this Cinematical poll, it wasn't great. What did you think?
- I'm not exactly waiting for the G.I. Joe movie with bated breath, but in case you are, here's the trailer in HD.

Even when he
played Aidan on
Sex and the City, John Corbett has always been a little bit country. That's why he gave up
acting in 2005, headed to Nashville, and grew out his chops. He spent the last year writing and composing songs for a
country album with guitarist/friend Tara Novick. Now he has a self-titled album and a video, which you can see on
AOL. The video is for a song
called
Good to Go, and it features your usual country stuff: hay bales, horses, tractors, and dirt. Oh yeah,
and it also has a few cameos by Bo Derek, John's real-life girlfriend. You can
hear samples of all the songs on his debut album over at his
official
website. Corbett isn't signed on with a record label because he
didn't like their recommendation of waiting a year to create a "marketing strategy" for his album. It's his
first album, but it's also a life-long dream for him, so he probably wanted to start the country music part of his life
as soon as possible. Even if you don't like the style of music, you've got to admire the guy for walking away from it
all to pursue his dream.

Two of the boys from 'N Sync have an idea for a television show. One of them is a slob, the other is a clean freak:
and they're roommates! Sound familiar? Joey Fatone and Lance Bass are creating a reality-ish series based on their
lives for UPN. See.. it's the funniest thing. Joey is a total slob. And Lance is a tight ass. Get it? Oh the comedy
that will ensue. I don't know about Lance, but Joey actually seems like a fine actor. He had a memorable supporting
role in
My Big, Fat, Greek Wedding.
UPN says the show is a modernized version of
The Odd
Couple (but you already figured that out, didn't you?). Its working title is
Out of Sync and UPN is
planning for a launch this fall.
