It?s not often that my work at New York?s American Museum of Natural History intersects with the entertainment industry, so it was very exciting to work on a project for the Museum?s newest space show, Journey to the Stars. I had the opportunity to sit down with the show?s director, Carter Emmart, and produce a behind-the-scenes look at this new production at the Hayden Planetarium...

Like any true-blooded American that grew up in the 1980's can attest, films like Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller's Day Off set the standard for sentimental teenage fare. Surprisingly Hughes only directed eight films, the last being Curly Sue in 1991, but he wrote many more, including the popular Vacation films, Weird Science, Uncle Buck and Home Alone...

There is no disputing that Howard Stern is a master at his craft, nor is there any disputing that the Three Stooges were the greatest comedic team producing film shorts during Hollywood's early years. The Three Stooges: Lost and Found Interviews is a 'can't miss moment' for all lovers of pop culture. And knowing Stern there is bound to be multiple repeats of this gem on Sirius XM...

Originally from New York, Mayer wrote Adam taking place in and around Manhattan. Like many locally shot romantic movies ? An Affair to Remember, When Harry Met Sally, any classic Woody Allen film ? Adam showcases one charming New York City spot after another...

The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien might be losing the ratings war to the Late Show with David Letterman, but not when it comes to the 18- to 49-year-old age demographic. Conan?s humor skews younger. CBS shouldn?t be so proud of hanging onto a demographic that already has a foot in the grave...

While U2 travels around Europe on the first leg of their 360 Tour, director David O'Reilly has released the band's latest music video for I'll Go Crazy, If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight. Film fans might recognize O'Reilly for his short film, Please Say Something, which earned him the Golden Bear at the 2009 Berlinale. The director also earned some Internet credibility for his Octocat videos...

This blog was first created for the purpose of entertainment reporting and opining, however, with the passing of Walter Cronkite, I felt it necessary to pay respect to one of the most honorable news reporters to grace television screens. He was not an entertainer ? unlike many delivering the news today. Cronkite told the news as it happened...

While publicists and studio executives tire themselves out today making calls and greasing the marketing wheels, celebrities took things into their own hands on Twitter. Here are a few 140-character messages that showed up this morning from those internet savvy celebs ? or possibly their overpaid ghost tweeters...

Equality is a key message running throughout Hair, the 1967 musical that originally forced people to look at so-called hippies, not with disdain or fear but with understanding. While the days of the original Haight-Ashbury culture is gone, Hair remains culturally relevant. And now it's another alternative lifestyle that has found meaning in the period piece...

FilmL.A., the office behind film permits for the city, reported last month that the number of prime-time TV pilots shot in Los Angeles is down nearly 42 percent. The organization estimates that pilot production spending in the L.A. region is down more than $100 million this year, compared to 2005...

'Shoot me first,' cries a young Amish girl as the murderous milkman points his gun towards the 10 students. 'Shoot me second,' whimpers another. These lines are delivered not only by Dickey each night, but were actually said by two sisters that day, according to local reports...

I?ve put together a list of some great Hollywood films that are either celebrating the holiday, or reminding us of our country's past. So queue up your Netflix, or wander down to the nearest Blockbuster ? should your neighborhood still have one ? and enjoy the show. And try for Blu-Ray whenever possible. DVDs are so last decade...

When it comes to acting, beyond the confines of sketch comedy, only one woman has displayed serious dramatic talent, of late. Out of the most recent SNL ensemble, Maya Rudolph, now starring in the film Away We Go, surpasses her late-night cohorts, including Fey and Amy Poehler, with an inspired and often touching performance...

I stumbled upon a curious Tweet from the Queen of All Media, Perez Hilton. @PerezHilton sent an SOS via Twitter early Monday morning. Then he started an onslaught of messages, all under 140 characters, outlining what he called an ?assault? from Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas...
