Or that Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark) can make an insane cricket chirping noise on cue? Or that Liam Hemsworth (Gale Hawthorne) can perform magic tricks for a crowd? Get More »

President Snow Lays Down the Law in New 'Hunger Games' Clip
Lionsgate
Even a sense of hope requires a (corrupt) political system of checks and balances.
President Snow (Donald Sutherland) discusses the darker side of public relations with Head Gamemaker Seneca Crane (Wes Bentley) in this new clip from "The Hunger Games," which premiered as an IGN exclusive.
Snow reveals how he keeps the citizens of Panem in line with his thoughts on the power of hope over fear -- and how each feeling needs to be strictly controlled in order for him to stay on top. Crane, like a good minion, scowls and nods. Get More »

New 'Hunger Games' Clip Targets the Gamemakers
Lionsgate
A brand new "Hunger Games" clip has been sent down from The Capitol, and Oh My Katniss is it a great one.
Those who've read Suzanne Collins' book to prepare for the Games know exactly which scene this is, but for the uninitiated, it's a moment when Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) must show off her skills to the Hunger Games' organizers (The Gamemakers) in the hopes of getting high marks and hopefully some sponsorship opportunities in the Arena.
Seneca Crane (Wes Bentley) and the rest of the Gamemakers lot have already seen twenty-something tributes by this point, though, so they don't even notice when Katniss hits a clean bullseye from across the room in one shot with her trusty archery knack. Their attention is instead focused squarely on a roasted pig - not the subtlest of metaphors - that's just been delivered.
So, in sassy Katniss form, she takes aim for their dinner. She does not miss. Get More »

Still riding high from getting his NYU professor fired the summer blockbuster "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," James Franco is in talks to make a cameo appearance as the one and only Hugh Hefner in "Lovelace."
The drama, based on Eric Danville's biography, "The Complete Linda Lovelace," follows Linda Boreman's transformation into porn star Linda Lovelace, her rise to fame that climaxed (hee hee) with her 1972 flick "Deep Throat," and her subsequent conversion into the feminist, anti-porn activist Linda Marchiano. Sounds pretty complete to us. Get More »

Fresh off her role as a… uh… promiscuous high-schooler in "Dirty Girl," Juno Temple has landed a part in the family film biopic "Lovelace," which tells the story of the star of the infamous "Deep Throat."
