Lovable Hurt Locker producer Nicholas Chartier, whose trash-talk email about Avatar got him banned from the Oscars, called a recent correspondent a "moron" and a "thief" in another imprudent missive. If only there was a way to not press "send."

Journalist Deborah Schoeneman says out loud when much of Hollywood already suspected: Hurt Locker director Kathryn Bigelow—who was once married to director James Cameron—is dating Hurt Locker screenwriter Mark Boal.

Nicolas Chartier sent an email to colleagues, including Academy members, asking them to choose his movie "not the $500-million film," a reference to Avatar. That was deemed against Academy rules on disparaging rival movies, so he's out. [LAT]
