Tina Fey As Sarah Palin On Saturday Night Live - Nailed It - Video

Last night, ex-SNL alumni Tina Few visited her old stomping grounds at Saturday Night Live. She had to. She is the only cast member that could pull off the skit of the year - as Sarah Palin, John McCain's VP pick.

And she nailed it. Opening in a skit with her "Baby Momma" costar Amy Poehler, she hit on all the topics covered by the media the last three weeks from living so close to Russia, to not knowing what the "Bush Doctrine" was.

Fey was a cast member of NBC's Saturday Night Live from 1997-2006 before leaving to write and star in the Emmy-award-winning "30 Rock", a comedy based on her stint with SNL.

Of course we would have loved to link to on of the hundreds of "Tina Fey Does Sarah Palin" videos on Youtube, but NBC Universal, in its zeal to save the world, has forced the video giant to pull every one from the site. At least the world is safe for now, as NBC has yanked some good free advertising for one of its sagging shows. But we finally found found for your to see.

In addition to her being creator, writer and star on the current "30 Rock", Fey can be seen next year in the comedy "This Side Of The Truth", starring with Jonah Hill, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, Ricky Gervais, Patrick Stewart, Rob Lowe and Jeffrey Tambor. The film is a comedy set in a world where no one has ever lied, until a writer seizes the opportunity for personal gain.

Brad Pitt Ready With "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - Early Review And Movie Trailer

Hot off the heels of his latest film "Burn After Reading", starring Pitt, George Clooney and Tilda Swinton, Brad Pitt is switching gears in anticipation of his next film due in theaters December 25.

"The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button" is an odd movie that will make you cry and scratch your head. The film stars Pitt, Tilda Swinton and Cate Blanchett, and was directed by David Fincher of "Se7en" fame.

Pitt's character tells people, "I was born under unusual circumstances", and nothing could be further from the truth. The main plot of the film tells the story of a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences.

Based on the short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the movie features Benjamin Button, played by Brad Pitt, as and old man who physically ages backward. He is born an old man and ages in reverse until he becomes a baby, and then finally vanishes from the earth.

At age 50, he falls in love with a 30-year-old woman (Cate Blanchett), and must come to terms with the relationship as they literally grow in opposite directions. The movie and soundtrack are eerie, setting the stage for what could be a strange film to be released on Christmas Day.

But it is a gripping film, and well worth the trip to the theater to see it. We suspect the award buzz will start the day it is released.

Brad Pitt And George Clooney In "Burn After Reading" - Early Review And Movie Trailer

Brad Pitt and George Clooney are in Venice Italy this week for the Venice Film Festival, but more importantly they are showing off their latest film project "Burn After Reading".

The comedy was directed by the infamous Coen brothers and is due in U.S. theaters in September.
The film, which premiered Wednesday at the Film Festival, is a story about dumb criminals and idiots - and what happens when their worlds intersect.

Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand play two unlucky gym employees who get into big trouble when the journal of an unsuccessful CIA agent, John Malkovich, falls into their hands, and they attempt to sell them as classified national intelligence secrets. George Clooney portrays an always-sick, big spender having a romantic fling with the CIA agent's unhappy wife, played by Tilda Swinton.

"Burn Without Reading" is set within a spy story for no other reason than "we hadn't done one before," Joel Coen told reporters at the festival.

If you have ever seen a Coen brother's movie you already have an idea of what to expect with "Burn After reading". It is sure to make you laugh, and may be the highlight of the late summer doldrums that plague us each year with sophomoric humor after the big epics like "Iron Man" and "Indiana Jones" are just a faded memory.

Brad Pitt will also be seen this Christmas in the fantasy mystery film "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", also starring Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swanson, a film that tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences.

George Clooney is currently filming "The Fantastic Mr. Fox", due in November 2009, and also stars Cate Blanchett. The film is an animated family adventure comedy about angry farmers who get tired of sharing their chickens with a sly fox and look to get rid of their opponent and his family.

Samantha Ronson Says She Will Marry Lindsay Lohan By Christmas

If lesbian Sam Ronson has her way, Lindsay Lohan will become Mrs. Lindsay Ronson by Christmas.

Ronson interrupted her live DJ session at a LA nightclub Tuesday night to express her unwavering love for Lindsay Lohan and promised she will marry the actress by the end of the year.

Ronson told the crowd at Chateau Marmont, "By the end of this year, my love will be Mrs. Ronson, and tonight shows the power of a woman, to underestimate that is to underestimate the world."

Huh? We're not sure exactly what she was trying to say, but we got the important parts. Chateau Marmont patrons say the nightclub has become a regular Friday night retreat for the young gay couple.

Not long after Ronson announced her intentions, Lohan was seen sporting an engagement ring on her wedding finger.

While Samantha spins her tunes waiting for Lohan to become her bride, the previously troubled actress is completing work on her latest movie "Labor Pains", due early next year.

The film stars Lohan as Thea, and is the story of how she pretends to be pregnant in order to avoid being fired from her job. When that gets her a lot of special treatment by everyone involved in her life, she tries to keep up the lie for nine months.

Mrs. And Mrs. Ronson-Lohan. It may take awhile to get used to saying that.
