What’s the Most Confusing Movie of All Time?

Thu, 06 Jun 2013 00:30:00 GMT

A website called ScreenCrush.com has put together a list of the Most Confusing Movies of All Time. And they gave top honors to the 1968 sci-fi classic "2001: A Space Odyssey". It's followed by "Donnie Darko".

Not surprisingly, DAVID LYNCH has two movies on the list: "Eraserhead" and "Mulholland Drive".

Here's the list . . .

1. "2001: A Space Odyssey", 1968

2. "Donnie Darko", 2001

3. "Memento", 2000 (This one was written and directed by Christopher Nolan, the guy who did the latest Batman trilogy.)

4. "Eraserhead", 1977

5. "The End of Evangelion", 1997 (This is Japanese anime. You've probably never heard of it.)

6. "Primer", 2004 (A movie about scientists who make a time travel machine. It was made for only $7,000.)

7. "Pi", 1998 (From the mind of Darren Aronofsky, the man who brought you "Requiem for a Dream", "The Wrestler" and "Black Swan".)

8. "The Matrix Revolutions", 2003 (This was the third one in the series. And not many people were happy with how it wrapped things up.)

9. "Tree of Life", 2011

10. "Mulholland Drive", 2001

Channing Tatum Won't Medicate His Daughter if She Has Learning Disabilities

Wed, 05 Jun 2013 23:00:00 GMT

CHANNING TATUM just became a dad, when his wife JENNA DEWAN gave birth to their daughter Everly last week. But he already has some definite ideas when it comes to parenting.

When Channing was in school, he struggled with a learning disability. And he still deals with it today. He tells "Vanity Fair", "I read so slow. If I have a script I'm going to read it five times slower than any other actor, but I'll be able to tell you everything in it."

Channing took medication, but it was a horrible experience. He says, "I did better at school when I was on it, but it made me a zombie. You become obsessive. The more you do, the less it works. For a time, it would work well. Then it worked less and my pain was more. I would go through wild bouts of depression, horrible comedowns."

And as a parent, he vows not to put his kids through that. He says, "I understand why kids kill themselves. I absolutely do. You feel terrible. You feel soul-less. I'd never do it to my child."

Elsewhere in the interview, Channing says he's worried about JUSTIN BIEBER. He says, "That kid's wildly talented. I hope he doesn't fall down into the usual ways of young kids because it's so hard for someone to be responsible when they're not asked to be."

He adds, "I don't remember who said it, but I do believe that whatever age you become famous, you end up staying that age. Because from that point you're not asked to be a normal citizen. I broke through at 24 or 25. I had lived a pretty diverse life. When I was finally making money, I knew exactly what I needed, $5.67. I'd have one meal a day. I would go to Checkers and get the Number One with everything."

A Local Official is Defending Taylor Swift's Right to Kick People Off the Beach Near Her Rhode Island Mansion

Wed, 05 Jun 2013 17:00:00 GMT

Turns out TAYLOR SWIFT'S security thugs DO have limited rights when it comes to kicking people off the beach near her Rhode Island mansion. First of all, they absolutely CAN keep people off the wall that separates her house from the beach. A local official told Radar Online, "There has been an ongoing problem with people climbing onto her wall."

However, hassling them when all they want to do is hang on the beach, well, that's a little more complicated. The official says, "The public is allowed on the beach, but only below the high tide water mark. When it's high tide, they can't be on the beach at all. When the tide is out, they can legally walk on the beach below the high tide mark."

JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT and her boyfriend, actor BRIAN HALLISAY, are expecting. He's one of her co-stars on "The Client List". They've been dating a little over a year, and sources say Jennifer is about three months along.

A comedy group called AVbyte posted a video on YouTube yesterday called "Facebook: The Musical".

Luckily, it's not a FULL musical. It's just one song about how lame we all are for checking our Facebook pages ten times a day.
