Did Gay Love Scenes Delay 'Alexander'?
Warner Bros. pushed back the opening date of Oliver Stone's Alexander from Nov. 5 to Nov. 24 because it wanted Stone to cut some of the love scenes between Alexander, played by Colin Farrell and his male lover Bagoas, played by Francisco Bosch, according to MSNBC.com's "Scoop" column. It quoted an unnamed insider as saying, "Some of the suits at Warner Bros. think that the movie-going public just isn't ready to see that. ... There's some pretty heated arguments going on over it." Alexander is depicted as a bisexual in the film, which also includes heterosexual love scenes involving the title character. A Warner Bros. spokeswoman declined to discuss the report, saying "We wouldn't talk about anything involving the process of making a movie."
Noooooooooooooooooooo! Don't cut them out!!! Give us teh gei secks!!!!!!!!!111
Brooks To Make Sequel to 'Spaceballs'
A day after announcing plans to film the movie version of his Broadway musical The Producers in New York, Mel Brooks is being quoted as saying that he is currently working on the script for a sequel to his 1987 Star Wars spoof Spaceballs that he would like to rush into production. Asked by Playbill magazine when the film is likely to hit the screen, Brooks replied: "Best case scenario: a week before the new Star Wars opens. Worst Case Scenario: a year after the new Star Wars opens." The new Star Wars movie, Revenge of the Sith, is due to open on May 19, 2005. Brooks also indicated that he will appear in the sequel (although, he said, he won't have a role in The Producers). "It wouldn't feel right to have anyone else play Yoghurt, and the first one was the best experience I've had making a movie since Blazing Saddles," he said.
*squeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* That's gonna be interesting! Hehehe...
Janet Jackson Incident Most TiVo'd Event
If TiVo users were broadcasters, they would be looking at pretty heavy FCC fines, judging from a company news release Wednesday indicating that Janet Jackson's notorious "wardrobe malfunction" at last February's Super Bowl halftime show remains the most replayed incident in TiVo history. Second on the list is the Britney Spears-Madonna kiss during the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. Also making the top of the list were scenes from the Athens Olympics, but a TiVo spokesman said that viewers were not interested in saving clips of victories so much as they were saving clips of flubs.
