Most devoted movie buffs are anxiously awaiting the telecast of the Academy Awards on Sunday. But those who'd rather see movie stars in the buff may be much more excited about the "Anatomy Awards." Instead of celebrating the year's greatest films, the 12th annual Anatomy Awards honors the best -- and sexiest -- female nude scenes to grace the boob tube and silver screen over the past year. Helming this "breast in show" is none other than Jim "Mr. Skin" McBride, the Chicago film lover who's managed to make an actual career out of watching actresses take off their clothes. Jon ...
Call it "The Fast and the Fantastically Stupid." Police say a daredevil driver filmed himself grossly exceeding the speed limit on an Oregon interstate with the intention of posting the footage on YouTube. But before he could wow Web users with his high-speed high jinks, the incriminating video found another attentive audience -- law enforcement officials. ...
John Barry, the acclaimed composer who did the scores for 11 James Bond films, died on Sunday. He was 77. Barry began his relationship with the James Bond franchise when he arranged fellow composer Monty Norman's score for the first 007 film, 1962's "Dr. No." The experience led Barry to a career spanning more than 45 years, including five Oscars wins for his work on films including "Born Free," "Out of Africa," "Dances With Wolves" and "The Lion in Winter." In 1998, Barry was inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame. Here are a few of John Barry's greatest works, compliments of Surge ...
Many of us have given a few bucks to some alleged psychic to tell us stuff we already know, but what if you spent your entire life savings looking into the future, attempting to contact ghosts and protecting yourself from aliens? That's the premise behind filmmaker Blake Freeman's newest documentary, "Gawd Bless America," in which he travels across America with a 69-year-old "believer" named LeRoy Tessina who's gone bankrupt after years of buying into fraudulent fortune-tellers and alien-protection devices. In hopes of setting Tessina straight, the duo set out on a weird cross-country ...
Think of Afghanistan and the first things to run through your mind would probably be war, Taliban, maybe Osama bin Laden. On a good day for the country's Ministry for Information and Culture, you might think of camels. All things considered, any of these would not be an unreasonable take on the troubled and complicated nation. But now, you can add the sport of cricket to your list. According to the Afghanistan Cricket Board, cricket is the fastest growing sport in the country with more than 70,000 male participants -- teams from Afghanistan's most unstable areas even participate in national ...
In the 1980s, former teen sensations Debbie Gibson and Tiffany constantly battled each other on the pop charts. Now, as grown women, the singers are rehashing their rivalry by flinging fists at each other's faces -- on television, that is. Calm down. It's not for some weird episode of "The Jerry Springer Show" or another one of those strange celebrity boxing matches. This girl fight is coming to fans courtesy of a ridiculously campy made-for-TV movie. On Jan. 29, at exactly 9 p.m., the '80s pop princesses will reunite on the small screen for "Mega Python Vs. Gatoroid," an original action ...
Sacha Baren Cohen, the funny man and character actor behind 'Borat' and 'Bruno,' is gearing up to play his most political role to date. The actor will be playing the role of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein in an upcoming film titled 'The Dictator.' ...
As it was for many people, the 2008 recession was a bad time for filmmaker Steve Moramarco. "My life was literally in the toilet for about a year, personally and professionally," he told AOL News. "Everything was dead. As an actor, I had no auditions and there was basically no work. I was so underwater on my mortgage, I might as well have been a scuba diver, and my girlfriend left." In better days, Moramarco had worked with Jack Black on films like "School of Rock" and was an associate producer on "Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny." He also had the honor of appearing on the flip side of ...
