Sex and the Prom?

Sex and the City scribe Candace Bushnell is going to eke out every last imaginable dollar she can. She’s the literary Vin Diesel.

Bushnell is expanding the story for a series of teen novel prequels about the high school adventures of Carrie Bradshaw. While we’re all about milking the cash cow, this one is dry! The SATC movie was awful yet they’re still planning a sequel and now, to further defile the memory of a show we treasured, she’s taking Carrie through teenage angst, pimples, periods and prom dates, in the hopes of roping in a new generation.

Basically, it’ll try to be Gossip Girl, just not as fun, original or fresh, and it’ll be called The Carrie Diaries.

The first book is expected to hit stores in 2010.

Boo.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
