Ricky Gervais to Reprise “The Office” UK’s David Brent on NBC’s “The Office”
Ricky Gervais is enduring possibly his largest amount of publicity ever with his hilarious, and somewhat controversial (to only the people he made fun of) hosting of the Golden Globes. So, it only makes sense that a big announcement about him reprising a popular role on a current sitcom would come at a moment like this. Gervais, who is […]
UPDATED Bruce Willis Talks About “The Expendables 2”
Sheldon Lettich who is a friend of Jean Claude Van Damme recently talked about JCVD’s involvement in The Expendables sequel along with Steven Seagal’s. “JC seems to be leaning towards appearing in the sequel, as far as I know.

Ricky Gervais Discusses Hosting The Golden Globes With Ellen Degeneres
I love Ricky Gervais. I think he is hilarious. Yes, maybe his jokes fall flat occassionally, and things are awkward. But I usually I am laughing non-stop. So when I heard that he was asked to return to host this year’s Golden Globes, I was ecstatic. I thought he was great last year, and it […]

However, in actuality he is the co-creator of The Office along with Ricky Gervais, and his writing partner. A very funny, if a bit […]
The Tooth Fairy

Golden Globe Predictions 2010 – Film
Here we are, a day before the second biggest award show of the movie season. Every year the Hollywood Foreign Press nominate people in the arts of film and television, and every year someone gets angry at the lack of nominations or the fact that the “wrong” person won. I like the Golden Globes because […]
The Invention of Lying
The newest comedy from esteemed British comic Ricky Gervais is a high concept joke stretched out over the course of an hour and a half. The film has some fine moments, but it cannot decide if it is a biting satire or a rollicking rom-com. Imagine a world where lying and deceit have never been […]
