It's not the franchise that WON'T die. Star Trek is the franchise that CAN'T die. From the classic three-season television series--that's right, just three seasons--to a film series that began in 1979 and ended in 1991.
It made nearly $150,000,000 at the box office. It won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture: Musical or Comedy. It was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won three: Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Best Sound Mixing and Best Supporting Actress (Anne Hathaway). And, now, Les Miserables is being released to DVD! And to pay tribute to the musical and movie, Jaclyn, Barb Birgy and I took the stage at Theatre Workshop's Opryhouse to bring some of our favorite songs from Les Miz to life. WATCH!

I don't know who this guy is, other than the YouTube page which is called Cinefix. But he has created a homemade version of the trailer for this summer's sure-to-be blockbuster Iron Man 3.
St. Patrick’s Day brings out the superstitious side in all of us. Lucky charms come front-and-center this week as we head into the holiday weekend. Though St. Patrick’s Day doesn’t get the same love in cinema that other high-profile holidays receive, Hollywood does have a rich tradition of crediting “Lady Luck” for certain milestones and achievements. Here are 10 “lucky” movie quotes that you can pull out on St. Pat’s Day.
I watch a lot of college basketball. And during every game, without fail, the networks air a public service announcement about the schools whose teams are playing.
If they can pull it off, I'll be a very happy camper. Because it LOOKS terrific. It SOUNDS like a brilliant idea. So I hope that isn't all an ILLUSION.
On my personal all-time greatest movies list, you will find two entries featuring Bill Murray. Groundhog Day is one of them.
Owensboro filmmaker and founder of Verite Cinema, PJ Starks, will be featured on the PBS series Main Street.
Sometimes it seems like the whole world has got Bill Murray’s back.
