Quest for Fun Halted: The 'Vacation' Reboot is Delayed

Warner Bros. Warner Bros.

Hope you weren't already packed up and ready to visit the theater for that "National Lampoon's Vacation" reboot because the weather report on the project just took a turn for the worse.

Oh no, Sparky!

Just a month ago, New Line was able to wrangle in series old-timers Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo for a much-needed cameo in the film. The reboot would star Ed Helms as their all-grown-up son Rusty and Christina Applegate as his wife, but apparently that wasn't quite enough to move the project forward. Get More »

Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo to Cameo in New 'Vacation' Flick

Warner Bros. Warner Bros.

Without Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo there is no "Vacation," folks.

Audreys and Rustys tended to come and go (as Old Navy reminded us this winter) over the years, but Clark and Ellen kept the family afloat all four movies. So, major snaps to the gang trying to reboot these tales of traveling woes for wrangling in the duo for a cameo. Get More »

But let's just say that Martin Short seemed much more excited about it than Steve Martin and Chevy Chase. Get More »

The Top 50 Music Videos Featuring Movie Stars

Kristen Stewart Music Video
MSN
Ever since Michael Jackson and John Landis unleashed "Thriller" in 1983, shaming all that preceded it, the music video has become an art form within itself. It can be a launching pad for your career (Alicia Silverstone), a favor to a boyfriend (Courteney Cox, Evan Rachel Wood), or a way to begin rebuilding a thousand burned bridges (Mickey Rourke).

With the MTV Video Music Awards hitting MTV tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET, we've compiled a list of the 50 best based on a number of factors: creativity of video, quality of actor's performance and, for some, random dancing ability. Our only caveats: no cameos and no soundtracks. The debate begins now. Get More »

13 Movie Dads We Wish Were Ours

The Pursuit of Happyness
Sony

Dads are good guys. They put together our complicated toys, they taught us to drive, and they took us camping. But we've always considered him to be a total dork, or the big bad guy who Mom would call on to deliver the harshest punishments.

We wanted a father who was more like ones in movies. Why didn't we have a dad who built a magical baseball field, was fabulously wealthy, and who greeted crises with jokes, hugs, or lethal force instead of groundings?

We know our dads were cool, always there for us, and making us better people. We love them dearly. But in honor of Father's Day, here are 13 movie dads we still find ourselves admiring for their humor, cuddliness, special talents, and in some cases, bank vaults full of money. Get More »

Paul Rudd in Our Idiot Brother
Weinstein Co.

They say the U.S. doesn't make things anymore -- that we've lost our way and are no longer No. 1.

Well, "they" are wrong. No country on Earth is capable of producing the quantity, quality and quantity of idiots that our fair land churns out with alarming regularity.

Affable favorite Paul Rudd continues the proud tradition of representing our country's most common commodity in "Our Idiot Brother," nwe on DVD and Blu-ray this week. But can he be stupid enough to join the ranks of elite morons, or does he still have a few more brain cells to kill? Let's review his imbecilic competition. Get More »

Chevy Chase Has a Love/Hate Relationship With Reboots

Reboots are an interesting beast. If they're done right (see: Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight" series) they're a fantastic mix of classic film nostalgia and modern movie excitement. And if they're done wrong, well, everybody dumps on them as being unnecessary. When it comes to rebooting Chevy Chase's films, though, there's one person who knows exactly how to do it right.

And that person is... Chevy Chase? Get More »
