There are two types of foodies—the type of normal person who just likes a really good meal and the affected, hoity-toity, proselytizing snob. When the cooking monkeys raided four Manhattan eateries all the snobs came out to play.

Here's a trailer for Water for Elephants, an adaptation of Sara Gruen's bestselling novel about a Depression-era circus. It marks Robert Pattinson's second post-Twilight role, this one a higher profile endeavor than the schlocky tragimance Remember Me. Plus, Reese Witherspoon!

Here, finally, is a trailer for Terrence Malick's fifth film, The Tree of Life, a generations-spanning look at being alive and thinking about being alive. It looks predictably gorgeous, grandiose, and maybe slightly overbearing, just like all of Malick's movies.

Perhaps Hollywood's most self-indulgent awards, for actors by actors, the SAGs are also often the best tea leaves to read to guess Oscar nominations. So pay attention! Here are this year's film and TV nominees.

Indie film hut Miramax has partnered with its old owners, the Weinstein Brothers, with plans to produce sequels of Weinstein-era Miramax's hits from the '90s and early '00s, including Rounders, Bad Santa, and most improbably, Shakespeare in Love.

Her husband ran up an X-rated bill and didn't tell her. Another actress mistakenly thinks she's getting engaged for Christmas and this Grinchy actor is a lousy tipper, but great lover. We're sure he'll have a merry XXXmas.

CBS picked up mommy blogger Kelly Oxford's sitcom in at least the third Twitter-to-TV deal at the network in the last year. Microblogging may feed on life's most banal moments, but that only makes TV executives love it more.

The latest project to bank on your desire to see jokes about break dancing, shoulder pads, cocaine, and VHS videos is this 1988 romantic comedy Take Me Home Tonight. Can we please give this '80s nostalgia a rest?

Here's the first glimpse of season three of Jersey Shore, the most important sociological experiment of our time. Watch JWOWW fight, The Situation hook up, and Snooki face plant in the sand. It's the same as it ever was.

A slew of famous couples split up. One was due to the man seeing too many strippers and another because the dude fell in love with his costar. This teen's management will dump her when her sex tape comes out.

This is an important question that Hollywood is scrambling to answer, fairy tale style. Also today: Carrie-Anne Moss moves to the small screen, Torchwood news for you spazzes, and Seth MacFarlane's movie is assembling its cast.

Here are two trailers for new Johnny Depp movies, both of which fall somewhat squarely in the kid-friendly demographic. He seems to be cultivating a pretty strong crop of these movies, strangely offsetting his Sweeney Todds and Hunter S. Thompsons.

Well, 270 of the movies of 2010, at least. This expertly cut montage is today's example of time well wasted. Watch it! And can you name all 270 movies? (We sincerely hope, for your sake, that you cannot.) [via Videogum]

It's time once again for our strange dance with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the group of ninety people who manage to throw the second-biggest awards orgy of the season. Their nominations came out today, so let's take a look!

She's willing to share for a room at Sundance. One talk show host repossessed his ex's car, and another is going to be mean to guests for ratings. As long as they don't infect them, we're all good.

You don't have to have seen The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford to enjoy this amazingly well done Yogi Bear parody. But it helps! As does a deep, abiding hatred for the stupid Yogi Bear movie.

Here's a trailer for Thor, the latest addition to Marvel's growing Avengers lineup (which will soon be a movie all its own). Star Trek spacefox Chris Hemsworth (Miley's bf's brother!!!) plays the mythical Norseman stuck in the human world.

Like so much else this weekend, the box office was a complete disaster! Everything was ruined, including a beloved franchise and the careers of two beloved actors. All is rot and ash now, so let's sift through it.

Apparently this happened! It's not who you think it is, either. Also up for investigation today are two singers who are faking a feud and a magazine and a celebrity involved in a real fight.

Several members of the Glee cast have tonsillitis, bringing production of the peppy musical series to a halt. Shoot, just when they'd recovered from that spate of severe dimple-strains. Seriously, the human body is not meant to smile that wide.
