BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

'Sherlock Christmas Special' Scene Released

We learn new details about the upcoming BBC episode.

Story by Matt Cummings

For those who haven't yet checked out the BBC series Sherlock, it's probably time you did. The series which cemented Actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman as superstars follows Sherlock Holmes on modernized adaptations of the books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The latest episode, tentatively titled The Christmas Special, now features the clip below. As you can see, show co-runner Stephen Moffat has taken Watson and Holmes back to Victorian England with Watson donning quite a mustache. Check out the video and read more afterwards:

It's clear that the team has missed a step since exiting season 3, with Cumberbatch wearing the hat and cape quite well. Freeman's mustache, the fun bantering with Mrs. Hudson (Una Stubbs), and Cumberbatch's "That’s the trouble with dismembered country squires: they’re notoriously difficult to schedule” reminds us why this short series is so memorable.

There's a lot of meta humor in the clip as well, from Mrs. Hudson not liking Watson's stories, complaining about her role in the home, and (best of all) the reference to the Hound of the Baskervilles. It's just enough to whet our appetites. Moffat also mentionedi n their Comic-Con panel that the episode will be getting a very limited theatrical run, which we'll update with you when we get confirmation of the locations.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
