The Sean Penn-directed drama Into the Wild led all other features with four Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations.  I asked an actor why it’s called "Screen Actors Guild" and not "Screen Actors’ Guild" and he just looked at me like I was speaking Chinese, so I ordered a latte.

"Into the Wild" received a leading four Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations Thursday, including honors for lead actor Emile Hirsch and supporting players Hal Holbrook and Catherine Keener.
…"Into the Wild" also was nominated for performance by its overall cast, along with the Western "3:10 to Yuma," the crime sagas "American Gangster" and "No Country for Old Men," and the musical "Hairspray."
…Conspicuously absent from the guild field was the British romantic melodrama [as opposed to a detached melodrama, or an austere melodrama, I suppose] "Atonement," which was shut out after leading the Golden Globe nominations a week earlier with seven nominations.

You can see the full list of nominees here, but I may as well just tell you, Kurt Russell got snubbed again.

In this eight minute clip from Charlie Wilson’s War, we learn some fun things – like the fact that Phillip Semen Hoffmore’s character is named "Gust" and that people used the word "tool" in the 80s.  Who knew?

Ya know, if you would’ve pitched me the idea of a movie about the triumphant story of the guy who helped get money and weapons to Bin Laden’s boys back in the 80s, I would’ve called you an idiot.  Then again, I’ve killed men with my bare hands because I didn’t like the way their hair smelled.  Perhaps I’m too high strung.

It’s just nice to see Tom Hanks not working with Ron Howard for a change – creepy goddamned ginger. (Opens today – written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by Mike Nichols) 

If you’re unfamiliar with FilmDrunk’s Friday Free For All, this is the time of the week when I post videos or short clips that don’t fit perfectly into the film news format – but do conform to my high standards of humor.  So if you’re looking for movie news, scroll down (or up).

Anyway, some fine filmmaker over at Funny or Die has taken an Indian music video and added subtitles of what he thinks they’re saying.  So simple.  So effective.

"My loony bun is fine benny lava." 

In a recent interview with Premiere, John "Bringin’ Tha" Hurt, discussed his role in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and had some choice words:

If I was asked what I would choose to do, it [the Indiana Jones movie] would be lightweight for me, at least for that sort of time commitment.

Oh snap! "It would be lightweight for me" is British actor speak for "Your whore of a mother really peels the scabs and lets the pus flow, bitch."

And my boy wasn’t finished, neither. He had some smack to lay down on George Lucas first.  

George is a bit socially crippled really. Not good with people. So I just left him alone.

BOOSH!  Who would’ve thought a guy that dresses like an aging lesbian version of Alf and thought Jar-Jar Binks was a good idea wouldn’t relate well to others?  Certainly not me! I say we settle this with a walk off.  

The trailer for Hellboy 2: The Golden Army is now online.

After an ancient truce existing between humankind and the invisible realm of the fantastic is broken, hell on Earth is ready to erupt. A ruthless leader who treads the world above and the one below defies his bloodline and awakens an unstoppable army of creatures. Now, it’s up to the planet’s toughest, roughest superhero to battle the merciless dictator and his marauders. He may be red. He may be horned. He may be misunderstood. But when you need the job done right, it’s time to call in Hellboy (Ron Perlman).

I’m kind of excited for this, even though the first one made me fall asleep.  I’m stupid like that.  But people say my penis exists entirely in the invisible realm of the fantastic, so I’ve got that going for me.  I think.
