Liam Gallagher has already made it clear he thinks the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is “full of Bumbaclarts,” and now he says the nomination of artists like Mariah Carey only reinforces his opinion.

Carey is one of this year’s 15 Hall of Fame nominees alongside Oasis and the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Cher, Mary J. Blige, A Tribe Called Quest, and Sinead O’Connor. Speaking with The Sunday Times, Gallagher expressed that being nominated with such a range of artists devalues the whole idea of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: “As much as I love Mariah Carey and all that, I want to say: do me a favor and fuck off. It’s like putting me in the rap hall of fame, and I don’t want to be part of anything that mentally disturbed.”

To be clear, his problem lies with the people behind the “wank award,” not...

Machine Gun Kelly is a popular name among celebrities who are fond of tattoos. The rapper-singer-songwriter is famous for being inked up and fans are well-versed in the number of tattoos on his body. Having said that, while many of his fans may be ecstatic to learn about his new tattoos, many would find it shocking to see what he has done. It seems that the rapper, 33, has covered up a few of his previous tattoos, but he did it in a way that took everyone by surprise.

Coming from someone like Kelly, it might not have come as a huge surprise to some people. But what attracted more attention was when fans started dragging Eminem into tweets. Remember when Mgk called the Recovery hitmaker’s daughter “hot” in a tweet back in 2012? Since then, the former has claimed that this has caused him to be shunned in the music industry.

Over the years, Marvel has done a ton of crossover comics, one of the most recent was The Avengers and Attack on Titan. It was short, but it was really freakin' cool. Affter doing a little research I came across six Marvel crossover comics that were ridiculous. The comic book publisher sure has some doozies over the years. Most of them offer some good, fun entertainment, while others simply sucked. Check out the list below:

Eminem/Punisher - Kill You

In 2009, Frank Castle and Marshall Mathers team up after the Punisher kills a bunch of Eminem’s bodyguards over a misunderstanding. After a concert, Punisher stops the limo from leaving so Slim-Shady and his entourage get out angrily to make him get out of the way. So what does Punisher do? He just automatically opens fire, killing many of them. After Eminem pistol whips Punisher, and an assassin named Barracuda...

At 87, Mel Brooks has lost none of his edge.

The legendary comic provocateur has phoned me from his Los Angeles office to promote the just-released 40th anniversary Blu-ray of his magnum opus, "Blazing Saddles," but before he submits to an interview, he quizzes me about Moviefone's unique pageviews and other Web traffic statistics, about which he knows more than I do. Having concluded that Moviefone is well-trafficked enough for him to talk to, he says, "Ask away, Susman!"

"Blazing Saddles," which made serious satirical points about racism while also making cinema safe for fart jokes, is certainly one of the most influential comedies ever made. Brooks believes it's the funniest film of all time (followed closely by his own "Young Frankenstein"), and he's still upset with the American Film Institute for disagreeing with him. He's making his case for the film with the Blu-ray (which contains a new making-of documentary,...

Her live performances are legendary and last night (March 13) Lady Gaga gave her fans quite the show at the SXSW Festival in Austin, Texas.

The “Just Dance” songstress teamed with Doritos for the event, held at Stubb’s BBQ, and 2000 lucky folks filed in after winning the Doritos Bold Mission contest.

Gaga was wheeled out on a BBQ roasting spit and kicked off the set with her catchy ditty “Aura” before addressing the crowd.

She declared, "I've been having such a good time all week. I haven't showered. I've been drinking all week. And eating."

Interestingly enough, Gaga was "puked on," resulting in her performing the rest of her set covered in a dark green substance.

Additionally, Lady Gaga tried to help the spectators enjoy the moment by asking them to put away their cell phones and pay attention to the stage- "Do me a favor and don't post this show.

Once again, it is the most human moments on American Horror Story: Coven that really get me. Last night that would be the grueling effects of Fiona's terminal cancer and its treatment: vomiting, moaning, writhing in agony. As a new Supreme rises, so must the previous Supreme pass on. "Do me a favor: die before Thanksgiving," Cordelia snarls at her mother. Actually, pretty much everyone is ready to help Fiona shuffle off this mortal coil. In fact, the Jazz Man is the only person being nice to Fiona.

"American Horror Story: Coven" looks to have set up a war of the witches for the last group of episodes this season -- who ya got your money on?

Fiona and the Sacred Taking

Cordelia has had enough with hiding out and hoping Marie Laveau doesn't get them, so she rallies the witches of her coven to start to fight back. They are aided by the arrival of one Misty Day, who is toting Myrtle with her.

It would seem a would-be assassin came creeping through the swamp, but Myrtle dusted herself off from her bog o' resurrection and warned Misty in time. The two of them hid out until Hank (we all know it was Hank, right?) went away and they headed straight for the coven.

The six coven witches perform a ritual called the Sacred Taking, which they hope will cause Fiona to kill herself for the good...

Peter Weller Talks Star Trek Into Darkness, on Blu-ray and DVD September 10

While the primary cast of 2009's Star Trek reprised their roles for this summer's sequel Star Trek Into Darkness, there were several new characters added. One of them was Peter Weller's Admiral Marcus, the father of Alice Eve's Carol Marcus, who plays a pivotal role in this sci-fi action-thriller, debuting on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD September 10th. I recently had the chance to speak with the talented actor over the phone, where he laid out the amazing story about how he landed this role, his thoughts on the RoboCop remake, his dual role as star and director on Season 6 of Sons of Anarchy, and more.

J.J. Abrams is known for how secretive his films are, especially before and during production. When you were approached to play Marcus, was there a lot you knew about this character?...

Will has finally had enough of Brent. Will there be fisticuffs? Probably not, but expect Passive-aggressiveness! Join us for the fun at 1 Pm Et.

Will and Sonny comes into the pub and discuss Sami’s upcoming bail hearing, and Will says, ‘I’m going to go say hi to … Grandma Cowlick?” Is it just me, or is Chandler mumbling his lines lately?

As he exits, Brent walks in carrying more plans for the coffeeboozehouse. Sonny thanks him profusely, and brent says he’s looking forward to his vacation exploring Bryce Canyon. has Sonny thought any more about joining him, Brent asks, as Will comes back just in time to hear.

Alert! Jj in a tight tank top! He comes in just in time to stop Abigail from becoming an Afterschool Special. He grabs the angel dusted doughnut out of her hand, and says, “Um … I sneezed on it!” That’s some quick thinking there.

In 2013, you don't have to be the "Man of Steel." If you're even a moderately noteworthy superhero, you're probably going to get your own movie. If that movie does well — and it probably will, since it's a superhero movie and the world loves superheroes — you're going to get a sequel, maybe even two, and those will probably do well, too. In short, being a superhero is, generally, a good thing.

That's why it's so surprising that the following nine superheroes don't already have movie deals, just by virtue of dawning their respective costumes. I'm sorry, I thought this was 'Merica! Someone get these people to a movie studio, stat!

The episode opened with Ziva in temple, praying — as well as questioning G-d, “Why should I not be angry, with all that has been taken? Show me, why I should not lose hope?” Tony interrupts, having had McGee do his “ping” thing to locate her. “Sympathy is the last thing I want right now,” she says. Rather, she needs “revenge.

The latest film from Tribeca triple-threat Edward Burns, The Fitzgerald Family Christmas, is now on VOD and digital platforms, so why not double your viewing pleasure with Doggy Bags, the writer/director's funny short from this year's Tribeca Film Festival. Made in partnership with American Express and based on cardholder Susan Brennan's idea from the company's My Movie Pitch contest, Doggy Bags is a delightfully layered comedy featuring Burns's signature style and a few familiar faces. Justin (Matt Bush, Nice Guy Johnny) and Hannah (Daniella Pineda, Newlyweds) are newly dating and decide to meet at one of New Jersey's delicious brunch places. Justin is smitten, but there is just one thing he can't figure out: the petite Hannah orders enough food for 3 people whenever they go out for a meal together,...

Last week’s season 3 premiere of The Walking Dead saw Rick cut off Hershel’s leg in an attempt to save him after the veterinarian/farmer was bitten by a zombie. In tonight’s episode, we saw the aftermath of that decision, and showrunner Glen Mazzara tells us how one key scene was inspired by his own tragic loss. [Spoiler Alert: Read on only if you have already watched the Oct. 21 episode of The Walking Dead. Seriously, come back later after you have watched. Last warning!]

While Rick, Daryl, and T-Dog dealt with —in various ways — the human prisoners they encountered at the end of last week’s premiere, the rest of the group attended to Hershel, whose life was hanging by a thread. In one poignant scene,...

Stand Outs

Caitlin Michelle

The very first Florence and the Machine song I ever heard was Cosmic Love and I'm really glad that my first impression of Caitlin Michelle was her singing this song. Singing, for me, is a way of release. A shelter, of sorts. I felt a very kindred connection to Caitlin, because she, too, has used music to overcome her own personal obstacles. Her panic disorder could sometimes completely demobilize her, yet she found...

And this week's painfully cringeworthy award goes to ... Flavor Flav ... who met Miley Cyrus backstage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival and was convinced she was Gwen Stefani.

Then Flavor calls her Gwen again.At that point, someone in Flav's camp...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I picked a doozy for a first film review, wow. I’ll do my best to describe the level of craft and Mastery that is P.T Anderson’s latest, I’m not entirely sure words can. Alright here goes, have you ever been so lost in a work of art, or anything thought provoking, that you’re not quite sure how to react afterwards? Was what I’ve seen really as awe inspiring as I think it was? It helps to have someone else there to confirm it, and in this case luckily I did and they more than reaffirmed what my own eyes told me. It wasn’t just the person that was sitting next to me in the theater that convinced me either.

An original idea, a great Writer-Director at the top of his game, and an actor trying to find his way back into prominence.

Some things you totally see coming - that Bill Murray would be a great Fdr in Hyde Park on Hudson, for instance. Or that Ben Affleck's Argo, about rescuing American embassy workers in Iran, would somehow nail the Hollywood satire/nail-biting escape genre. (Oh, who are we kidding? It created the Hollywood satire/nail-biting escape genre - and it's getting Oscar buzz to boot.) Still, some things out of the Toronto International Film Festival continue to surprise, even now that the show's over. Here are a few: • Jennifer Lawrence is better than you thinkSure, she was great as...

Perhaps the most perplexing new couple to emerge from the reality TV cesspool this summer is Bachelor Pad’s Kalon and Lindzi. She’s the sweet blonde who got dumped by Ben despite wearing the most kick-ass green velvet cape Switzerland had ever seen. He’s the intentionally unlikable “luxury brand consultant” who arrived at Casa Bachelorette in a rented helicopter and then repeated himself by driving up to the Bachelor Pad in a rented Porsche. Somehow, these two opposites have found themselves really attracted to each other, and Kalon definitely gets about 400 percent less douchey whenever he’s around Lindzi.

When San Diego's Comic-Con first began back in 1970, only 300 people attended. Now, the annual convention for comics, collectibles and all things genre has gone decidedly mainstream, drawing crowds in excess of 120,000 to preview the latest movies, TV shows, games and merchandise in an annual four-day festival of geekery.

Actor Zachary Levi has attended the convention from both sides, as a fan and as the star of NBC's cult hit "Chuck," which ended its tenacious five-season run last year. But far from forsaking his fanbase once his show left the air, Levi and his business partner, Dave Coleman, have been working to keep their loyal army of self-proclaimed "nerds" active, engaged and inspired, in large part through their Nerd Machine merchandise site and related social media.

In 2011, the duo debuted Nerd HQ, a smaller, more informal annex to the Comic-Con experience held a few blocks away from the convention center. Last year,...

Thursday night, Justin Bieber stopped by the Late Show with David Letterman to promote his recently dropped album. Bieber was also sporting some new ink, which didn’t go unnoticed by Letterman.

Bieber was sporting a new tattoo on his left arm that says "Believe." This didn’t stop Letterman from playfully grabbing Bieber’s new ink while Bieber called Letterman "grandpa."

Director Darren Lynn Bousman talks 11-11-11, the insane supernatural happenings on the set, Mother's Day, The Barrens, and much more.

Director Darren Lynn Bousman burst onto the horror scene in 2005 with Saw II, which lead to the subsequent sequels Saw III and Saw IV. After leaving Jigsaw behind, the director made one of his passion projects, Repo! the Genetic Opera!, based on his 2006 short of the same name. The filmmaker is back with 11-11-11, which hits theaters nationwide on, of course, 11/11/11, i.e. November 11. The movie centers on an American man visiting Spain, who delves into the mysterious conspiracy of 11-11-11, when Heaven's 11th gate will reportedly open. I recently had the chance to speak with Darren Lynn Bousman over the phone about this horror tale, and here's what he had to say below.

If you didn’t pick up on that fact that Guri Weinberg has a personal blog from our previous post, you’re definitely missing out. In his latest post, Guri tells a great story from the set of Breaking Dawn, where it turns out that Robert Pattinson was a smoking buddy of sorts during breaks. Whether it was what Rob said or something else, Guri was prompted to quit smoking. (Go Guri!) In addition, Guri goes into the origins of the Gfys jokes, and the awesome charity work that’s come of it. Check it all out after the jump:

On Breaking Dawn, I would generally find Rob Pattinson already smoking when I’d go outside to sneak a few puffs in. We would generally start chatting about whatever, he’d get fired up about whatever we were discussing and he would then generally finish his cigarette and ask for one of mine. He’d light another one and we’d keep talking. Then I’d light another one. We would chain smoke if there was a long enough break on set. I hate to say that’s how we got to know each other but that’s how we got to know each other. As shooting went on, I was smoking a Lot. Getting sick, looking tired, yada, yada, yada. So, I started my daily rant that my wife is All too familiar with through many attempts to quit – ” I gotta stop smoking”.

Rob looks at me and says, “You know, I heard that if you quit before you’re 30 you’re in the clear, health-wise.”

Since I am passed 30, that doesn’t seem too good.

“Hey, Rob. I’m over 30.”

He just looks at me totally non-plussed. “I know.”

Silence. I’m waiting for the “but”…it’s not coming.

“Well, aren’t you just a ray of sunshine. Do me a favor – Go f*** yourself.”

He’s laughing hard now. He keeps trying to talk but he’s laughing too hard. Feigning intense indignation, I get up to go to my room.

“Listen, man. I gotta go. Costco has a sale on caskets right now and obviously it’s a matter of minutes At My Age.”

Now, he’s having trouble breathing, he’s laughing so hard. But, I’m still thinking…man…I have been smoking for way too long.

Read the full story on Guri’s blog here, and be sure to follow him on his twitter account. You can also check out the Gfys charity store here.

I absolutely love Guri, he is so much fun! Also, Gfys

What do you think of Guri’s story? Did you check out his Gfys charity store?...

Previously on Pretty Little Liars, A went after Emily like a rabid dog hopped up on canine blow, Hanna lost a boy but gained a dad, Spencer cracked ... everyone’s nuts, and Aria couldn’t find the elusive "just right" balance between Ezbianism and Goldilocks Dilaurentis.

It’s college fair day, and at Rosewood High that means school is elective. Unless, of course, you are Emily Fields, for whom excellence is never optional. While Hanna is at home dreaming of vagrants and the things they do with s’mores, Emily is attending swim practice — where she sits by the pool hoping Paige will try to drown her so she’ll have an excuse to get in the water — and procuring herself some breakfast and unsheathing the Mystery Machine log, from which she is now reading the details of her last bit of sleuthing with Spencer:

Attention "Thor" fans! By the good graces of otherworldly Asgard, Paramount Pictures has gifted MTV News with an exclusive new clip from the upcoming and highly anticipated "Thor."

For those who've been watching and re-watching the trailers, the featured scene will be slightly familiar. The clip opens with Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), Professor Andrews (Stellan Skarsgård) and Darcy (Kat Dennings) rushing to the aid of recently banished/crash-landed Thor (Chris Hemsworth).

"Get the first aid kit!" Foster yells, as she runs to the side of the fallen God of Thunder. "Do me a favor, and don't be dead," she says to him.

"Whoa, does he need CPR?" Darcy asks after seeing Thor's chiseled face. "Because I totally know CPR."

"Where did he come from?" Foster wonders aloud.

Chicago – Last week, Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” notched a couple of Academy Award nominations. Do me a favor. Don’t allow your children to only know Johnny Depp’s portrayal of the Mad Hatter when it comes to Lewis Carroll’s timeless tale. Of course, they should read the actual book (or have it read to them) but don’t let them miss the great Disney classic, now available in another stunning Blu-ray release from the company currently doing this kind of thing better than anyone else.

Blu-Ray Rating: 5.0/5.0

As you can learn through the spectacular special features on this release, “Alice in Wonderland” started as a series of stories to a young girl named Alice. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (who would later take the pseudonym Lewis Carroll) created the world of Wonderland for the middle daughter of Henry Liddell and was eventually begged to write them down for her.

Rocking the house at the Safari Club International annual convention, Sarah Palin warned Obama was out for their gun rights-and dangled a major hint about 2012. Andrew Romano reports.

It's 8:00 on Saturday night in Reno, and 2,500 of the most avid members of Safari Club International-the sort of hunters who target lions instead of, say, ducks--are packed into the Tuscany Ballroom at the Peppermill Hotel and Casino, poking at their Chocolate Hazelnut Bombe with Frangelico Cream. Some are dressed in tuxedos; others are sporting ankle-length hides and Flintstone-style fang necklaces. In the world's largest and most active big-game hunting organization, "semi-formal" seems to have many meanings. The assembled masses have reached that special part of the evening when the filet mignon is finished, the awards have been awarded, and the green and blue laser beams that periodically shoot from the stage are no longer as dazzling as they were two hours ago.
