The King’s Speech takes 12 Academy Award nominations at announcements with Mo’Nique
By Robin Rowe
HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 1/25/2011 – “We’ve got some big news to announce this morning and to help me I’m happy to welcome Academy Award winner Mo’Nique,” says Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Tom Sherak. Mo’Nique won last year as best supporting actress for Precious.
The leader in Oscar nominations for 2011 is The King’s Speech with 12, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay. True Grit captured ten nominations. Inception and The Social Network each garnered eight. The Fighter took seven noms.
With ten pictures in the running for Best Picture, The King’s Speech seems the most likely outcome for the top prize. While much of the media has been predicting The Social Network to sweep the Oscars, that outcome seems unlikely given the more esoteric tastes of the Academy. Black Swan is the dark horse choice, based on the type of pictures that the Academy tends to pick. However, The Social Network is still in the running as a nominee. Even the year’s #1 grossing picture, Toy Story 3, could win. This is the third time an animated picture has taken a Best Picture nom. The other two were Beauty and the Beast and Up.
Sundance favorite Winter’s Bone is perhaps the least known of the ten Best Picture nominees. The French animated film The Illusionist in the animated picture category is another nominee enjoying a boost in visibility from its Oscar nod.
The Academy Awards will air live on ABC on February 27, 2011, at 8/5p. The Red Carpet broadcasts at 6:30|3:30p. Here’s a complete list of the nominees

A Christmas Carol, Disney motion capture of Dickens classic
HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 12/2/2010 – “The wonderful thing about this digital process is that I can be cast in roles that I would never be cast in,” says A Christmas Carol star Jim Carrey, the voice of Scrooge. “If I have it in my soul to play a character, it doesn’t matter what my face looks like, or my age. I find that really liberating.”
“The process of being scanned before you start acting is quite an extraordinary experience to go through,” says A Christmas Carol star Colin Firth, the voice of Scrooge’s nephew Fred. “You have to put your head in a pink, gummy thing that’s normally used to (more…)

Tim Burton left Disney after The Black Cauldron
HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 10/11/2010 – Tim Burton left Disney soon after his work on the creative art of The Black Cauldron. His dark style didn’t mesh with the trademark style at Disney. The Black Cauldron is a mix of animation styles.
The Black Cauldron, based on the Chronicles of Prydain books by Lloyd Alexander, is the fantasy adventure story of Taran, an apprentice pig keeper who dreams of becoming a great warrior. Taren may regret what he wished for when Hen Wen, a pig he’s been caring for, becomes the key to finding the long lost Black Cauldron, a supernatural prison for an ancient king so evil the gods feared him. Now the evil Horned King wants to find the (more…)

Prince of Persia The Sands of Time presents great action sequences and new star Gemma Arterton *** 3 Stars
By Gabrielle Pantera

Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton in Prince of Persia
HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 10/11/2010 – “When we went to Morocco in the first week, we visited some of the sets which had been built,” says Prince of Persia star Gemma Arterton. “That was when I realized, ‘Whoa, this is a big deal.’ They were like cities. I’d never seen anything like it. You don’t have to imagine anything. It’s right there, and it’s a real luxury, especially in these times of green screen. It was the world that really interested me in doing this film, and when you walk onto sets like ours, that world has already been created.”
Outside Marakesh, the exterior set of Alamut, designed by Wolf Kroeger, was constructed around the actual 700-year-old walls of the village of Tamesloht. It took 30 miles of scaffold tubing, 400 tons of plaster, and a 350-member construction crew. In England, the Alamut Eastern Gate set built on the Pinewood Studios 007 stage used 3,000 4×8 foot sheets of wood, 70,000 feet of 1×3 inch timber, and 40 tons of casting plaster for moldings. In Morocco, there were 1,350 cast and crew members, including 800 local Moroccans. With another 500 people working in post-production, the total cast and crew reached more than 1,850.
“We love bringing audiences into new worlds they haven’t yet explored,” says producer Jerry Bruckheimer. “And, ancient Persia is one of the (more…)

Woody Allen film looks at the complications of relationships, suggesting that fantasies and illusions may be the glue that holds one’s sanity intact *** 3 stars
By Jennifer Huber

Freida Pinto in Woody Allen film You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger
HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 9/23/2010 – “All these characters are running around trying to find meaning in their lives and find ambitions and successes and love,” says You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger writer-director Woody Allen. “They’re all running around, bumping into each other, hurting each other, getting hurt, making mistakes…a constant chaos.”
Woody Allen’s latest film is a story that complicates the very foundation of a relationship. With a great cast, Allen explores the idea of fantasies and illusions being the very fabric that keeps one on any level of sanity.
You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger stars Anthony Hopkins as Alfie who tries to restore his youth and leaves behind his old-fashioned wife Helena, played by Gemma Jones. Helena enters a tailspin that only becomes manageable when she (more…)

HOLLYWOOD, CA (Gosh!TV) 9/21/2010 –“I play a character called Dr. Griffiths in the film. Dr. Griffiths is a scientist and a workaholic, and he has an eight-year-old daughter named Lizzy,” says star Michael Sheen who’s the voice of Dr. Griffiths in Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue. “He doesn’t have too much time for his daughter because he is obsessed with his work, but he loves her dearly.
