UPDATE: HERE’S THE VIDEO! Joaquin Phoenix’s bizarre antics continued Wednesday at a hip-hop show in Miami. Sporting a disheveled dark suit and smoking a cigarette, the scraggly-bearded Phoenix, 34, got on stage around 1:50 a.m. at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel’s nightclub. No...

If you're on Twitter, follow Bryan Brinkman. Follow him not because I said so, you wouldn't do that anyways. Let's face it, I'm not influential like that. People like Jimmy Fallon and Questlove though, two guys who are influential, are the ones who want you to follow Bryan. Who's Bryan? You ask. I d...

Just a quick wrap up on some of the film news from the past month. “Waltz With Bashir� won big in France and at the Golden Globes, and the film’s director, Ari Folman, fought off a thief in Paris who tried to steal his Cesar trophy. But “Waltz� failed to receive an Oscar [...]...

EVERYONE thinks this Blind Item from Ted Casablanca is about Joaquin Phoenix…I mean EVERYONE. I’m holding out hope that his craziness is still just “pretend crazy’ for Casey Affleck’s documentary…but who knows. Ted C. has has sticky little hands all up in the goss...

Ben Stiller reportedly flipped out over his Oscar script the day before this year's show. But the Joaquin Phoenix impersonation he came up with as a replacement was hardly original. Frank Coraci had done the same bit just the night before at the Independent Spirit Awards, Page Six reminds us. Stille...

OK, I know this mini-review of the big night is a couple of days too late, but I gotta say that, surprisingly, Hugh Jackman did not totally suck as host of the Oscars. The opening number was actually pretty funny and he tried his damnedest to keep a very bloated telecast light and lively, but, any w...
