FeedThree Stooges Casting In Final Stages
Written by NetBear on March 25, 2009 – 4:55 pm -This story will put some “nyuk nyuk” in your day. The cast of the new Three Stooges movie has been picked and is in negotiations. You’re lookin’ at ‘em!
Sean Penn will be the furry-headed Larry. Jim Carrey is going to gain 40 pounds to play Curly. And Benicio Del Toro will play the maniacal Moe. At least, that’s what MGM wants to happen according to Variety.
The film won’t be a biopic, but rather a comedy built around the antics of the three characters that Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard made famous the world over in their Columbia Pictures shorts.
Certainly Jim Carrey has the wackiness to be Curly. But can Penn and Del Toro fulfill their comedic roles?

Milk Movie Now Available On DVD And Blu-ray
Written by NetBear on March 11, 2009 – 11:45 am -Thirty years before Barack Obama broke through a significant political color barrier, Harvey Milk tore down a similar wall that was obstructing America’s gay community from holding political office. The Milk movie is now available on DVD
Without hope life is not worth living.
You’ve got to give ‘em hope.
There are so very few movies available that serve to inspire and encourage gay people while accurately chronicling our history. Milk is a movie that every gay man and his grandmother should see. Like being “out,” it’s a movie to be discussed, shared and celebrated with our family, friends and acquaintances.

Sean Penn Wins Oscar For Role As Harvey Milk
Written by NetBear on February 23, 2009 – 10:46 am -If there was a surprise during last night’s Academy Awards it would have to be award for Best Actor. Sean Penn took home the Oscar last night for his portrayal of slain San Francisco gay rights activist Harvey Milk in the movie Milk and used his win to defend the right of same-sex couples to wed.
I think it is a good time for those who voted for the ban against gay marriage to sit and reflect and anticipate their great shame and the shame in their grandchildren’s eyes if they continue that way. We’ve got to have equal rights for everyone.
– Sean Penn
The straight actor’s portrayal of an openly gay politician was a timely one — with “Milk” coming out shortly after California’s same-sex couples lost their right to marry in a voter referendum.
