Sara Vilkomerson's Third Stringer: Ride 'Em, Wilson!
By Sara Vilkomerson | May 19, 2009 | 2:12 pm
Is it weird that of all the great Owen Wilson screen performances out there—we’re including The Royal Tenenbaums, Zoolander and Marley and Me—we kinda love him the best as the itsy-bitsy miniature cowboy Jedediah in these Night at the Museum movies? We can’t explain it. … The man says “flapjack” and we’re sold. So, yes, we’re talking about Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.... READ MORE»

Single Person's Movie: Meet the Parents
By Christopher Rosen | February 19, 2009 | 8:32 am
It's 2 a.m. and you awake with a jerk, alone in your fully lit apartment and still on the couch. On TV, the credits of some movie you've already seen a billion times are scrolling by. It feels like rock bottom. And we know, because we're just like you: single. Need a movie to keep you company until you literally can't keep your eyes open? Join us tonight when we pass out to Meet the... READ MORE»
Sara Vilkomerson's Guide to This Week's Movies: Bow-Wow, Wow! Jen, Owen and Marley Make Terrific Trio
By Sara Vilkomerson | December 20, 2008 | 12:50 pm
How come it's taken Hollywood this long to match up Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston onscreen? Not only is their chemistry nice and totally believable, these guys actually look like they could have been set up through friends, or met at a bar or whatever: His shaggy hair and busted nose compliments her I'll-always-just-be-the-girl-next-door-no-matter-how-many-times-I-get-naked-in-GQ attitude. It's great! They play John and Jenny Grogan, aspiring journalists who move to Florida. They get jobs at competing newspapers... READ MORE»
Manhattan Weekend Box Office: Good Friday Good for One Thing; the Still Beating Heart of Joshua Jackson's Acting Career
By Jake Brooks | March 24, 2008 | 2:09 pm
Judging by box office—and the box office never lies—the one thing Good Friday was good for was taking your kid to the movies. Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who! (No. 2) hauled in $25 million in its second weekend, easily winning the top spot nationally. And Manhattanites were equally irreligious, though marginally different in the object of their sin. Tyler Perry’s Meet the Browns (No. 1) earned 25 percent more than Horton in... READ MORE»
Mr. Lonelyhearts
By Spencer Morgan | February 12, 2008 | 8:26 pm
A 32-year-old ad copywriter, who sings in a downtown band and has a lot of tattoos, was on the phone from the East Village. His tone was confessional. “For the last two years,” he said, “I’ve been chasing tail, sowing my wild oats, literally meeting girls and bringing them up to my apartment. And now”—his voice dropped a decibel or two—“I’ve gone three weeks without having sex. And I’m getting this response from some... READ MORE»

Remains of the Day: Natalie Portman, Wes & Owen, Edward Albee
By Gillian Reagan | October 26, 2007 | 5:03 pm
Natalie Portman pretends she’s important and makes fantastically obvious picks for a charity CD. A Shins remix? No way! Nice guy/every-mid-20s-to-30s-something girl’s dreamboat Ron Livingston will break out of Office Space’s shadow and into more dramatic roles in his movies opening this weekend. Damn it feels good to be… Richard Pimentel? An interview with Owen Wilson conducted by his bud Wes Anderson will be posted on MySpace at midnight tonight. Synchronize... READ MORE»
Owen Wilson Powers Low-Income South Bronx Housing!
By Max Abelson | October 8, 2007 | 2:52 pm
It’s been a grim few months for Owen Wilson, but he’ll have a reason to be chipper if he heads to the South Bronx next Monday. The Fordham-Bedford Housing Corporation is announcing a week from today that Jacob’s Place, a green affordable housing development on Webster Avenue in Fordham, has been completed. And they’re unveiling its solar panels, which Mr. Wilson happens to have indirectly bought, thanks to the eerie-sounding Solar Neighbors Program. That... READ MORE»

Today in Mediabistro Corrections
By | January 11, 2007 | 9:36 am
Correction to items written today by Dylan Stableford on Mediabistro's 'Fishbowlny', an oddly named New York media blog. 1. Is Page A2 of the New York Times really that funny?, Dylan asked of the Times' advertisement of a chuckling fellow holding open the paper. Caption: "Darfur? BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Actually, A2 carries the News Summary, corrections, editors notes, and "for the records," not news about international genocide. 2. Dylan takes note of a publicity email he received from...
