...Please Remain in Your Homes, well, once again CP's conflicted. Go looks like a definite go. Never Been Kissed? Iffy, but CP developed a tiny crush on the new dewy Drew since The Wedding Singer, and David Arquette is a rock-solid talent (though he's still working up the courage to rent Home Fries). The only sure skip is yet another moldy Jackie Chan re-release, Double Dragons, about -- get this -- TWO Jackie Chans! Hilarious. Stay home and rent Double Impact -- it's twice the VanDammage, after all. Or better yet, read a book...

A crush of visitors overwhelmed the site. Another admirer is online bookseller Amazon.com which said it had acquired 40% of the fledgling company. For Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, the investment made sense. He has been on the prowl for other retail businesses that fit Amazon's amazing model, and the health...
...stages and in the movies Cluelessand The Object of My Affection as a likable personality and a credible romantic interest. In his new feature role in the early 80s ensemble film 200 Cigarettes, Rudd plays a lovelorn cynic with the best sideburns since President Van Buren and a secret crush on Courtney Love. Not bad for a guy who has no ambitions of becoming a big Hollywood star; he'd rather just play some darts...
