Besson, Reno, Portman, Oldman: 'The Professional' 15 Years Later

18 November 2009 2:23 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Jean Reno and Natalie Portman in The Professional

Photo: Columbia Pictures Is Luc Besson an overrated filmmaker? I think he's a fine director but reviewing his resume he's usually a pretty average writer and his movies are kind of hit-or-miss. But every once in while he sneaks in an effort that surprises you, makes you take a step back and think, Whoa, where'd that come from? My most recent such reaction came while watching his last directorial effort, Angel-a, a sweet and moving love story dropped into a hotzone trifecta of mediocrity including The Fifth Element, The Messenger and Arthur and the Invisibles. To that point, outside of Angel-a he hasn't made a substantial contribution to the medium since Leon - The Professional, a contribution certainly worth celebrating, and will be done so over the next ten paragraphs.

I didn't see The Professional in the movie theater. I watched it on VHS. »

Punky Brewster: Actress Soleil Moon Frye Resurrects Her Iconic Character

16 September 2009 3:26 AM, PDT | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »

If you grew up in the 1980s, the mere mention of Punky Brewster brings back very distinct memories of childhood days in front of the boob-tube. Love or hate the show, it's an indelible part of that decade. While there's little chance that we'll ever see a Punky Brewster reunion, actress Soleil Moon Frye recently revived her character for a special visit.

Punky Brewster revolves around a precocious little girl who has been abandoned by her mother in Chicago. With only her faithful dog Brandon as a companion, Punky starts living in a vacant apartment in an old building. There, she meets the grumpy landlord, photographer Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes). The two quickly bond and Henry becomes her foster parent and later adopts her. Others in the series include Susie Garrett, Cherie Johnson, T. K. Carter, Ami Foster, and Casey Ellison.

Thank you, Mike Judge. I really needed a pick-me-up after watching that depressing video of Soleil Moon Frye dressing up like Punky Brewster to celebrate 1,000,000 Twitter followers. And this video of Beavis and Butt-Head promoting your new movie, Extract, did the trick.

Ah, "Master Bateman!" Sometimes it's the simple things that help you get through the day.Continue reading Beavis and Butt-Head are back!

Punky Brewster's back!

2 September 2009 3:00 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Well, for at least four-and-a-half minutes. To celebrate collecting 1 million Twitter followers, Soleil Moon Frye decided to don her Punky Brewster gear as a thank you to fans. And holy macanoli, does the 33-year-old mother of two still pull off neon! I always love when former child stars are willing to have a laugh at themselves (hello Mark-Paul Gosselaar!), and the artist formally known as Punky totally wins me over at the 3:30 mark, when pointing to her bad-ass leg bandana: "Punky was gangster before gangster was even gangster!" Watch and enjoy—particularly the shout-out to Frye's filming assistant, Mrs. Kutcher herself. Photo Credit (Punky Brewster): Everett Collection »

Soleil Moon Frye Resurrects Self, Punky Brewster

1 September 2009 3:30 PM, PDT | Movieline | See recent Movieline news »

Inspired, perhaps, by Mark-Paul Gosselaar's late-night resurrection of Saved By The Bell's Zack Morris, actress Soleil Moon Frye dressed up as Punky Brewster and shouted at Demi Moore for five minutes in a web video (after the jump) in order to acquire a million Twitter followers. Meanwhile, somewhere, Vicki from Small Wonder whispered at a Sav-On pharmacist for ten seconds and got nothing in return but some tropical-fruit-flavored Rolaids. Is this fair? »

Fans of Bravo's The Millionaire Matchmaker may notice something different about Patti Stanger as she makes the press rounds for the second season of her Bravo show The Millionaire Matchmaker.
