I tried watching "That's Entertainment!" the other day, and man, the hosting/narration from Sinatra, Liz Taylor et al. was insufferable. Completely awkward, stilted and unnatural. Especially Sinatra, who seemed bored off his butt.

This guy makes me want to punch children. Not necessarily his, any will do. He's a buzz saw down my spine. This is what passes for a TV show about movies, and it makes me sick to my stomach. Someone needs to put together a full on, hour a week (or 2 hours a month?) show made for people who care about movies and would never think about ending a segment trying to impress the viewers with an Oscar statistic. The kind of people who give a shit about that stuff should just stick to watching The View or whatever it's called.

Wait, I make documentaries....

And what's up with having not heard word one from Day-Lewis in any of the promotional stuff so far. Am I wrong? Has he spoken? What's the voice like? Fellini instead of John Houston?

"It looks like another amazing Rob Marshall movie!"

Um, what was the other amazing Rob Marshall movie?

And nary a mention of Federico Fellini anywhere in that puff piece (I guess they can't market Rob Marshall as a "visionary" if they mention he's just remaking the work of another, better director). Do I sound like an old fogey if I mention that Fergie is not even remotely effective as a substitute for Eddra Gale? Well, if I do I don't care. The Saraghina dance is one of my favorite scenes in the original.

Wait..... Fergie gained weight for the film AND she plays a prostitute? OSCAR!
(she wouldn't by chance be playing an over-weight prostitute who's also retarded, would she?)

That style of patter has been seasoned and aged to an absolute brine over the past few decades - and it is HAMMERED into these people. Steines is probably the least offensive of all the ET-types (Christ, look what they did to poor Leonard Maltin). I'd have to say I find the delivery of most local-news anchors/reporters to be twice as egregious and based nowhere in actual conversational tones.

But shows like this and Inside Edition have devolved with the culture to become less about enterainment news and more a bald-faced competition to drop the names and images of celebrities. Garbage like TMZ is only making it worse. It was pablum to begin with, now it's simply poisonous.

Remember when you actually had to be able to dance to be in a Musical? With the amount of edits they use these days they could make me look like Fred Astaire. The hours of choreography they put into these film (Moulin Rouge springs to mind) and you never see it onscreen for more than a second. I could get quite annoyed if I thought about it.
