Who knew Kristen was even capable of crying?

Dakota Fanning is in talks to play Cheri Currie in The Runaways, the biopic of the 70s all-girl rock band which Twilight star Kristen Stewart has already signed on for, playing Joan Jett.

At 15, Fanning is the same age Currie was when she made her debut with The Runaways as the lead singer of the band whose hits included “Cherry Bomb” and “Born to be Bad.”

Currie was described as being the love child of Iggy Pop and Brigitte Bardot.

Sullen, crazy, cranky Twilight star Kristen Stewart is getting mighty busy.

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!
