Adios, Andy Rooney, and 5 Other Stories You'll Be Talking About Today

Happy Wednesday! Also in today’s edition of The Broadsheet: Summit signs up to go to Area 52… Michael Moore wants his book yanked from shelves in “murderous” Georgia… A closer look at Martin Scorsese’s epic George Harrison documentary… and more. · This is not quite movie-related, but it’s a little too easy to snark on antediluvian 60 Minutes commentator Andy Rooney, who on Tuesday announced that he will deliver his final segment for the TV newsmagazine on Sunday night. Sure, on the one hand, he’s most recently taken to ranting about his taste for newspapers and confusion over Lady Gaga. On the other, the 92-year-old World War II correspondent has logged 33 years, 1,097 essays, countless impersonations and untold influence on multiple generations who — admit it — can’t help but relate sometimes to his being nudged further and further to some rare rational edge of contemporary American culture. A lot of folks might say Rooney is a caricature who hasn’t been relevant in years, but I’d venture an alternative theory: Even on his own show, he’s an outsider — just like the rest of us who know and acknowledge privately or otherwise that this development itself is the end of something. Also: We’re getting old. [Deadline] · Like here, how about this: Summit Entertainment has acquired the screen rights to the 2001 comic-book series Area 52, about a group of misfits overseeing a secret government holding space where a killer alien busts loose on a bender. Seriously? This makes you want to rant, right? Go ahead! Do it for Andy. [Deadline] · He wouldn’t be Michael Moore without exploiting a bad situation for maximum gain, and so with the recent Troy Davis execution in mind, the filmmaker and author has taken to his Web site to lobby for a 100-percent boycott of Georgia — up to and including the removal of his new memoir, Here Comes Trouble, from shelves there: “I will ask my publisher to pull my book from every Georgia bookstore and if they won’t do that I will donate every dime of every royalty my book makes in Georgia to help defeat the racists and killers who run that state.” [MichaelMoore.com via The Guardian] · “George didn’t like boundaries, and time was one of those big boundaries he didn’t like — it was stretched and twisted by him.” And thus George Harrison’s widow helps tease the epic documentary Living in the Material World, directed by Martin Scorsese, premiering this weekend at the NY Film Festival and hitting HBO on Oct. 5 and 6. [Vanity Fair] · Ahem. Coincidentally! “Because It Can’t All Be Cynicism And Snark: The Most Goddamn Adorable Couples In Hollywood History” Love it. [Pajiba] · This continued delusion of Toronto as the world’s worst sports city only underscores how many ostensible sports fans have never spent any time in Atlanta. They bombed the freaking Olympics, folks. And that’s to say nothing of Braves games. The. Worst. [Grantland]

Avatar Will Invade Disney Theme Parks

James Cameron's on boardGiven the amount of money it made and the way popular it's, we're frankly slightly astonished it needed this extended for an individual to pitch James Cameron on the idea of creating an Avatar-based theme park attraction. Nevertheless the Wally Disney Company has guaranteed a deal to start an Avatar Land within the Animal Kingdom park it runs incorporated within the Wally Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. Disney boss Bob Iger made the announcement inside a press conference with Cameron and Fox chiefs Jim Gianopulos and Thomas Rothman attending. The idea is always to create fully recognized designed sections in line with the planet the planet pandora as seen in the film. With construction set to start in 2013, the finished product will draw not only within the original, but furthermore from Cameron's planned sequels, including what he describes as "biomes", or perhaps the parts in the planet. Avatar was created to celebrate our interaction with character and nature's question and diversity, Cameron mentioned within the conference. Putting our Avatar designed land into Animal Kingdom is extremely exciting. "While Cameron may have ample input into the design and dealing practices in the parks, he's clearly apt to be just a little busy acquiring the following two films made. Nevertheless it appears he's full confidence inside the Disney team. "I quickly recognized their vision with this particular factor was far beyond what I'd imagined - and that i have a great imagination. We're just wanting he stops missing marketing the Titanic kind of luxury luxury cruise ships. Because that really can't finish well for anyone.

Olivia Munn on I Don't Know How She Does It, Her Feminist Critics, and Trying to Do it All

Olivia Munn first became known for keeping geeks everywhere enthralled on a daily basis as the co-host of G4’s Attack of the Show, but since leaving the program to pursue acting she’s hit the ground running by joining The Daily Show, starring in the short-lived sitcom Perfect Couples, and snagging roles in upcoming projects from the likes of Aaron Sorkin and Steven Soderbergh. Speaking with Munn over the weekend about her latest film, I Don’t Know How She Does It, Movieline was determined not to ask the pun-tastic question of how, in fact, she does it. What we discovered instead was the story of how, in the course of following her Hollywood dreams, she tried to do it all. “I wanted to be at G4, doing what I was doing, and also be able to pursue acting and other creative outlets,” said Munn, wistfully explaining how she came to part ways with the network that launched her career. “I just wanted to make some other dreams come true.” Munn adds a strong credit to her resume as Momo Hahn, a Type A career-oriented analyst with a severe outlook on life and a bone-dry delivery in the Sarah Jessica Parker vehicle I Don’t Know How She Does It. She spoke with Movieline about her character, battling female stereotypes on and off-screen, being both sexy and smart despite what her critics say (and the infamous backlash to her Daily Show hiring), the frustrations that led to her split from G4, her work on Steven Soderbergh’s Magic Mike, and more. I wanted to make a point not to start by asking you how you do it, because I’m sure you’ve gotten that question a lot already. [Laughs] Yeah, I have! ‘How do you do it all?’ It’s always like, ‘This movie’s called I Don’t Know How She Does It and we watch Sarah Jessica doing that, but you with the movies and the show, how do you do it all?!’ I’m like, well, I don’t have children right now. So how are you going to start it off instead? By asking you how you found you related to the women in this film. I’m 30, I don’t have kids, and so I don’t necessarily relate to Sarah Jessica’s character as much as I do to your character, Momo. So when you first read the script, who did you find yourself relating to most? You know, the only similarity I find between my character and myself is that we’re both hardworking. I actually relate more to Sarah Jessica’s world — not that I’m in it, but it’s something that I would want one day, to be able to have children and a family and also have my work and my career. So my biggest thing was, Momo has a filter, she just chooses not to use it. She has a very structured, very specific outlook on life. That’s why I wanted to cut my hair, too. I wanted there to be nothing that was going to get in her way, even something as trivial as her hair. But she has one goal in life. I think what I loved about the role so much was that I could see how she is perceived, and you want to break down the character in a way that is harder to break down. She’s robotic, and phobic of children. ‘Oh, you want kids one day?’ I get asked that a lot. And it’s more of a rhetorical question. ‘Do you want kids one day? Do you realize that your eggs are literally falling out of you, one by one?’ And I’m like, okay, I’ve picked up on your tone. Thank you for that. Momo starts out as a career woman who doesn’t see the appeal in motherhood but then reveals a surprising maternal instinct. In that, she’s probably the most interesting character in the film. What I love about this is that some people want to put these people in a box; Momo has a very specific view in life. My mother and my aunt, they all went to university and worked really hard and got their degrees and they got married and had children and thought they had to make a choice, one or the other. And our generation, I think that’s what we see when we look at our parents. We’re not going to let family and all that stuff get in the way of our dreams. My mom growing up said to me all the time, one, ‘Don’t get pregnant.’ And ‘don’t do drugs.’ Then the last one was, ‘Never just marry a man and become his wife. Make a name for yourself.’ That’s something that she said to me all the time, and it stuck with me. But here’s the thing; my whole life is work right now. And like you’re saying, you don’t have children and you’re career-oriented, but it doesn’t mean that you don’t want to have kids. Also, if you don’t have kids it doesn’t mean that you picked your career over it. Some people don’t want to have kids. So what I wanted to do with Momo was show someone from that point of view, but also she’s an extreme version of a lot of people that I’ve seen or I’ve heard about. How do you see the women in this film? There are two people: The women who stay at home, or the women who work and have a plan in life and that’s it. But the most important thing for me was to show that if you’re a real human being you’re not just a caricature. A real human being has to be more than just that. The main storyline is, how can a woman be a great mother and a great wife and great at her job at the same time; how do you juggle that? But the B storyline to me is showing that women in different forms can be really horrible to each other, like Busy Phillips’ character, or we can be really supportive of each other if we understand each others’ world like Christina Hendricks, but what I play is that we can be women with two completely different outlooks on life and different agendas, yet be supportive and be friends and love each other and need each other. My choices with Momo, it was always coming from a place of, ‘I’m rooting for you. I’m on your team.’ Sometimes people, and even women, perpetuate this stereotype themselves, not realizing it, wanting to hold each other down. Did that come up during scenes? Sometimes we would be doing a scene and as with any great project, everyone’s really collaborative and talking about it. But one time there was a note for me to be more catty, or to say something that I just said, ‘It doesn’t matter what my delivery is on this, it doesn’t sound supportive. I won’t do it.’ The women that I know in my life, the reality, is that we are really supportive. My two best girlfriends, one’s an architect and one’s a nurse. We couldn’t be more different. Many chick flicks and romantic comedies these days do that as well, it seems. Like Something Borrowed, which actually is about two female friends competing for the same man. It’s a plane movie — you watch it on the plane. [Laughs] But that movie is like a lot of movies, not to just single that one out, where one woman is so oblivious to her best friend’s feelings about somebody else, and on the same token where one woman is so closed off to her best friend about her feelings about somebody else. Then later on when you can go and sleep with your best friend’s fianc… I’m literally like, push her off a bridge! To me, that is real in some women’s worlds. Those are the women who want to, I think, hold back other women who actually want to be more progressive. I think it’s dangerous, and people make the joke, ‘Women dress for other women.’ I’m like, no I don’t! Because one, it’s not 1995, because that joke’s old. And two, I don’t want that girl to want to have sex with me. I want that guy to want to have sex with me, and let’s just call it like it is. And sometimes, I just want to feel good for me. I don’t walk through life dressing up for other women, and I never have. It’s just obnoxious. And we have to be accountable for what we put out there, and I know how lucky we are. In the beginning when you start to do different jobs you’re just thankful to get any kind of work and do it, and people are guiding you, but you have to have a sense of self. How does that translate into your career and how it’s evolved in the last few years? From G4 to now, at what point did you try to start transitioning into acting? From the very beginning. I moved down here in 2003 and was going out for every commercial audition, doing everything I could. I got a small Nickelodeon show right before I went to G4, and they offered me a job and I actually turned it down three or four times. I thought it was a great opportunity but they were like, ‘It’s 9 to 5, Monday through Friday’ — oh no, I have to be able to continue auditioning and all that crap. They were like, what’s good for you is good for us, we want you here and we’ll work it out. I said, great! And for the first six months I dedicated everything, and after that I started auditioning for stuff. I was actually offered a TV pilot but at this point the ratings for Attack of the Show had gone up a lot. They were like, ‘Oh no, you can’t do it.’ I was like, ‘What? You promised me I could!’ ‘Well, we just can’t really afford to have you off our show right now…’ And I wasn’t going to be off, I was going to do them both. But I think the fear there was that I wouldn’t be able to do both. I said OK, I cried, the next one came around a few weeks later and they said, ‘The next one that comes around, we’ll let you do.’ They wouldn’t let me do it. Alright — hold on. You guys promised me this! They said, ‘Well, in good faith…’ Good faith! Good faith, as in their faith. I’m big on loyalty and sticking by my word. So long story short, they worked it out with the lawyers to try and figure it out, but I wanted to be able to live my dream. I wanted to be able to do this, it was a dream of mine, but I also wanted to be able to be creative in other ways. And that’s when I said, I really want to start doing comedic skits. Doing things like comedic acting pieces, and I could put on different characters and make sure the audience was always seeing me in a different character with a different name and being different people, so that when the transition did happen, if I was lucky enough for it to happen, they wouldn’t be like, ‘That’s Olivia!’ The first one we did was ‘It’s hard to be a female superhero’ with Wonder Woman… ‘There’s no pockets for your mirrors and your brush!’ ‘The invisible jet is really hard to find!’ I think that became the calling card for the network, and for myself.
