My Brother Couldn't Sleep Sunday Night Because of the Game. I Couldn't Sleep Because I Got Queso on my Good Polo Shirt.

At last following up his 2015 hit, The Warriors, Deception Liberation Front... frontman... Teufel is releasing a new detective thriller, Bye Bye, Beautiful. According to the HTGdb's description: "When down-on-his-luck private investigator Alan Cooper is forced into a case involving a congressman's mistress, he gets the sneaking suspicion he's being set up." According to the same database, the actor to portray Cooper is semi-fav David Boreanaz.

"Alan Cooper? I thought it was Alice Cooper!" declared a movie viewer polled at a local theatre. "Man, the thought of a detective doing his investigating while wearing heavy mascara and with a snake wrapped around his shoulders. That would be the best movie ever!"

Returning from an absence is skilled actor James Spader, who last appeared in 2009's Jack of All Trades as Thomas Jefferson. Rather than playing a President, this time Spader will be playing corrupt police detective Jacob Knight. Also appearing in BBB is big screen babe Charlize Theron and the esteemed Paul Giamatti.

Movie fans are thrilled for the release. "Woot!" exclaimed one fan. "Who ate my pudding?!" pondered another.

Bye Bye, Beautiful, a 21st Century Cat Pictures release, opens this weekend.

UPDATE: Oops, forgot to mention... Today (Tuesday the 7th) is James Spader's birthday. Yahoo and all that. Ashton Kutcher also has a birthday today. He's married to the uber hot Mila Kunis, so he gets a birthday attaboy. Attaboy, Ashton.

Wow. Exciting Overtime Drive By the Patriots. My Brother is Disappointed. But, It's Not Like I'm FROM Georgia. Oh, Well.

After real life forced him to be offline for a while, Happening Editor in Chief Marlowe is basically back in HTG Hollywood.

"Family issues forced me to move from Missouri to Texas for a short period" stated the longtime producer over a Diet Pepsi and Raisin Bran breakfast. "Then, after taking care of that, I moved to Georgia. It looks like I'll be here for a while. I'm able to log on more and more, so we'll see how I can contribute. My past tasks (which, for the most part, I took over because the ball had been dropped) have, again for the most part, been picked up. The BO reports and opening of the theatre, plus voting, has been taken care of like a champ. I've updated some talent scores. It looks like HTG is continuing to move forward."

Are there any upcoming plans for Marlowe?

"I've really got to get caught up on my writing. I have one project that I really want to finish, a superhero film with a twist. But it's a major undertaking for someone as lazy as me. We'll see how that goes. Plus Chris Harmer has given me the green light to put him in more flicks. Those are always enjoyable. I hope to get back into the swing of things soon."

Plus, let's not forget, there's this news site which is occasionally updated. :)

Those Who Dealt It Sang It

Throughout the history of HTG Hollywood, films of all sorts have graced its silver screen. Action. Adventure. Comedy. Drama. Romance. And now, thanks to Lucian Carter of Ship of Fooles Productions, a new kind of movie will hit the theatres. Through his Possum Lodge Studios, Lucian will be releasing a film called Celebrity Fart Songs.

The editor is pausing so that you can reread that a few times. It's not a typo.

Celebrity Fart Songs is a tune-filled game show for the most part. Acting as host is Chuck Woolery, iconic game show host. Also featured are musical comic genius Weird Al Yankovich and Canadian comedienne Samantha Bee. The reaction to the movie has been mixed.

"It sounds like fun" stated one movie fan at a local theatre.

Another person interviewed wasn't enthusiastic, stating "A film about farts? That's disgusting!"

Celebrity Fart Songs is slated for a November 18 release.

Image Use Not Approved By Actor, Snow Boots on Sale at Mega Mart

An awkward situation has developed in HTG Hollywood. Strangely enough, it once again concerns the odd cult formed by HTG luminary Chris Harmer. The producer's poutine club has attracted the likes of many celebrities and mover-shakers in town. It revolves around meetings at Harmer's mansion, where they eat the fry-curd-gravy concoction, listen to music and discuss issues of the day.

However, not everyone in town is a member of the club. One of these non-members is actor Seth Rogen. Although Canadian and a fan of poutine, he is not a member of Harmer's club.

"He's never been asked" explained a representative of Rogen's. "It's not a matter of him saying no. It's just that he never got an invite."

However, according to the rep, Rogen is disappointed to discover that his image is being used in membership propaganda without his permission.

"Seth hasn't worked in HTG since 2014. It would be nice if the filthy rich Chris Harmer would offer a couple coins for the use of his image."

The situation gets awkward when you consider that they have a mutual friend, Marlowe from Miracle Pictures. Seth Rogen is a "friendly talent" of the studio. Chris Harmer has appeared in a number of successful features of the studio. Both are bound to get work at the same time from Miracle Pictures. Would a pending lawsuit make the situation worse?

"As long as Harmer begins to respect Seth, things will be fine" the representative concluded.

Nixon Now More Than Ever

By Richard van den Berg

Today Renée Zellweger was spotted in HTG Hollywood at Dean Drive with a very short dress. And if we say very, we mean very! She was there for her fan day, but it was cancelled because there were just too many journalists. Zellweger said "I couldn’t handle it any more." And all the fans left, while the brutal journalists were still trying to make pictures of the 46-year-old Tales of Terror and Suspense actress. And then she drove away. According to eyewitnesses, she was driving in a big Mercedes SUV. Some fans did understand why Renée cancelled her fan day. One of the fans stated “I think it was a wise decision. I am still in love with her.”

Some fans were a bit more negative about her behavior and her looks. One of them commented “I have always loved Renée from the start of her career until finish." Another said “She looked like a Barbie, with lots of (failing) plastic surgery! I think she is just frustrated because she did not appear in a movie since 2008!”

Anyway, films of Zellweger proved to be successful in the past, but it is a fact that she isn’t the most hyped actress of HTG now. Her lone two appearances on the HTG big screen have been as Bobbi Jo Hancock in Hunt Club stories. Rumor has it that Miracle Pictures has been working on a new Hunt Club tale for some time. However, in that feature, Zellweger would be replaced by January Jones, to play Bobbi Jo's sister. Miracle Pictures could not be reached for comment.

Brad Pitt Spotted With Ex-Wife Jennifer Aniston

By Richard van den Berg

It’s not news any longer that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are divorcing. But a new scoop showed up today. The rumor is that Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were seen together.

A week before the divorce was made official, they were spotted at The Ganzevoort Hotel in New York City. Some anonymous sources say that there is video which proves that the rumor is reality. A Dutch television program called “Shownieuws” called The Ganzevoort Hotel. When asked about the rumor, the hotel manager said “I don’t know both actors." Many people in the Netherlands did not believe the “explanation” of the hotel manager. Jolie, Aniston and Pitt did not react on the rumors.

Pitt and Aniston were married from 2000 to 2005. Anniston is currently married to Justin Theroux, who has defended his wife.

Aniston has not appeared on the HTG screen since 2013, when she played a supporting role in Miracle Picture’s “Grand Theft Dog 2."
