Dr. Adrian Helmsley, part of a worldwide geophysical team investigating the effect on
the earth of radiation from unprecedented solar storms, learns that the earth's core is
heating up. He warns U.S. President Thomas Wilson that the crust of the earth is
becoming unstable and that without proper preparations for saving a fraction of the
world's population, the entire race is doomed. Meanwhile, writer Jackson Curtis (John
Cusack) stumbles on the same information. While the world's leaders race to build "arks"
to escape the impending cataclysm, Curtis struggles to find a way to save his family.
Meanwhile, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes of unprecedented strength wreak havoc
around the world.

adventure to save their TV studio from an oil tycoon.

Jennifer Lopez hosted Saturday Night Live on Saturday, where she parodied the remake
of We Are The World with a skit entitled We Are The World 3: Raising Awareness Of
The We Are The World 2 Disaster. The skit featured J.Lo dressed up as Rihanna, as well
as other SNL castmates dressed up as Gwen Stefani, Lady Gaga and Quincy Jones. While
J.Lo’s Rihanna impression was pretty hilarious, it was the Gwen Stefani impression that
really brought the lols.

While Universal’s follow-up to Death Race is headed straight for the DVD garage, it
would appear that the studio is still aiming to secure a decent cast for the sequel, with the
likes of Sean Bean, Ving Rhames, and Danny Trejo all on board.

Jake Pavelka wasn't willing to wing his way cross country for her, but maybe one of the
next 25 men in her life will. Ali Fedotowsky, who stunned Bachelor fans everywhere by
choosing to leave the show to go back to work, has been named the next Bachelorette.

Director Breck Eisner’s The Crazies hit screens last week, which means he’s now free to

since 2008. Looks like he’s finally on the way to getting it made. Talking to Heat Vision,
Eisner said: Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless are working on the script right now.

Director Jason Winer, who has won acclaim (and a Directors Guild Award) for his work

for a working-class woman instead and asks his valet for help as his family force him to
choose between money and love.

After last week’s announcement that Justin Theroux will take the reigns on the long
awaited Zoolander sequel, Mr Blue Steel himself has revealed a number of juicy new
details during an interview with MTV. “We are in the process of getting a script written”,
said Ben Stiller. “It’s in the early stages, but it’s gonna happen.” The star went on to
confirm that the film will “have input from all the Zoolander people”, including co-star
Owen Wilson, who will return as Derek’s catwalk nemesis Hansel.

Lady GaGa, the 23 year old pop sensation, famous for her pants free onstage cavortings,

sex with.

James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver have given a morale boost to the U.S. military in
Bahrain. They staged a special screening of Avatar for troops. The director, along with

battleships.

Blockbuster Video movie rental chain will be quietly reinstating late fees in their brick
and mortar locations, with a capped rate. Members who pay the $4.99 for a new release
DVD will have five days to return the movie, instead of seven. A $1 per day late fee will
be assessed for every movie is late, for up to 10 days. This $1 per day charge also applies
to Blu-ray rentals as well. So basically a customer could keep a movie for a year and only
be charged $10 in late fees.
