8 Movie Favorites Recast With Cats
Cats: They're such divas. Adorable, adorable little divas. They rule our world, so why not the cinematic one?
We obliged our feline friends by reimagining eight movies — with the aid and inspiration of our Twitter followers — starring cats instead of humans. Really, we can only dream of such cinematic purrfection.
The first one out the gate? Why, "The Great Catsby," of course. F. Scott Fitzgerald concluded that the pursuit of the American dream could only lead to a dirty litter box at best, after all.

100 Movie Stars, 100 Porn Star Names
The "porn star name game" is a time-honored tradition in America.
It's a game pretty much anyone can play, depending on the rules — we employ the First Name: First Pet, Last Name: Street You Grew Up On method (our apologies to those with allergies, maybe you had a goldfish?). And the results are, without fail, hilarious.
We asked 100 of our favorite movie stars in Hollywood — including Emma Watson, Keira Knightley, Megan Fox, Ryan Gosling, Paul Rudd, Anne Hathaway, Matt Damon, Katie Holmes, Jon Hamm, Emma Stone and Neil Patrick Harris — for their porn star names. They did not let us down. Click through the gallery for all 100.
Reporting by: Sandie Angulo Chen ("Millie 69"), Robert DeSalvo ("Rocky Waverly"), Claire Donovan ("Spunky Walter"), Elizabeth Durand ("Stephanie Veronica"), Bryan Enk ("Buck Densmore"), Max Evry ("Orion Cedar Crest "), Breanne Heldman ("Krugerrand Ardon"), Jenni Miller ("Mitzi Turtle Creek"), Kevin Polowy ("Sparkle Sterling"), Brandon Rae ("Sammi von Fernway"), Brooke Tarnoff ("Brandy W. Riviera"), Joanna Varikos ("Angel 14") and Kase Wickman ("Blake Sisters").
7 Movies That Should've Starred Charlie Sheen
Dimension Films
Love him or hate him, you have to admit one thing about Charlie Sheen: The guy is pretty damn entertaining.
The man who stole the 2011 media spotlight from every other celebrity with his bizarre behavior and madcap yammerings is currently making a comeback on the big screen, continuing this weekend with his turn in "Scary Movie 5." If the trailers and clips are any indication, Charlie doesn't do much in the movie beyond hang out in bed with Lindsay Lohan — which is, of course, just fine. Get More »

First Photo from 'Star Wars: Episode VII' Emerges!
After months of speculation on the casting of "Star Wars: Episode VII" – will the "original 3" appear? And in what capacity? Will they look all old and stuff in it? – the very first cast photo has emerged from the upcoming Lucasfilm/Disney collaboration, and it's a whopper.
What this so-called "family portrait" does tell us: Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher are indeed returning, along with a coterie of young Hollywood stars best known for their previous work on The Disney Channel – including Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and The Jonas Brothers -- playing kin to Luke, Han and Leia.
Purists may scoff at this "Disneyfication" of the "Star Wars" universe, but hey, no one can deny the resemblance those moppy-haired Zack and Cody bear to Luke Skywalker in his formative years.
Big news Monday!

17 Movie Stars Get Animated
DreamWorks
Practically every mega-star in Hollywood has gotten animated.
Tom Hanks was a toy. George Clooney was a fox. Eddie Murphy was an ass a donkey. And in the prehistoric adventure "The Croods," Emma Stone, Nicolas Cage and Ryan Reynolds play a cavegirl, a caveman and a caveboy, respectively.
We wondered what these stars would look like as animated people rather than as, you know, animals and neanderthals and stuff. Thanks to these 17 portraits, we've replaced our wondering with works of art. Get More »

The Top 2 James Franco Prequels Co-Starring Primates (Of All Time)
Disney
There's something familiar about "Oz the Great and Powerful," and we don't mean the witches, wizards and yellow brick roads you'd expect from a prequel of "The Wizard of Oz." It's something even more magical than ambulant scarecrows and crystal balls:
James Franco is sharing another big screen with Simia troglodytes (that's "chimps," if scientific classification isn't your thing). And no, we're not talking about "Pineapple Express." Seth Rogen is a man, people.
If that weren't amazing enough — and it really is — "Oz" isn't even Franco's first prequel featuring the furriest relatives in our taxonomic family.
In celebration of our favorite onscreen pairings — James Franco and his monkey friends — we offer you the Top 2 James Franco Prequels Co-Starring Primates (of All Time). Get More »

13 Movie Titles That Lie
"Snakes on a Plane" may not have ever lived up to the hype, but it remains one of greatest movie titles of our time. (Or the opposite of "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium.")
Why? Because it's bold, colorful and, most of all, tells you exactly what you're going to get: snakes on a muthaf**kin' plane. Maybe the only more apt or remotely better title would have been "Samuel L. Jackson Versus Snakes on a Plane."
That's a mouthful, but it still would've told it like it is. Unlike these dirty liars.
