I had been expecting Date Night, the movie that finally unites Michael Scott and Liz Lemon on an adventure of mayhem, to be something along the lines of The Out-of-Towners, in which an ordinary couple gets besieged by a series of bizarre circumstances that make their lives miserable. But based on the movie's first trailer, which debuted today at Apple.com, it's more like North by Northwest mixed with a dozen other gangster movies.
Not that it won't be worth watching-- anything that brings toge...more

One of Modern Warfare 2's biggest new features is Special Ops mode, a series of standalone challenges for one or two players. Infinity Ward may release post-release content for this mode if you're really jonesing for it.
"Spec Ops is a great mode that is built where it could be expanded if we want," said IW community manager Robert Bowling in a video interview with MTV. "So I mean, once the game is out we're going to take a little break and play with everybody and see what they want more of. ...more
The nominees for this years batch of Peoples Choice Awards are here and as usual, they alternate between nonsensical and patently awful. All you need really need to know to sum up these awards is that Tyler Perry's latest piece of awful Madea Goes To Jail was nominated for something and Twilight was nominated for pretty much everything else.
