On the plus side, Jim Carrey has gotten back to comedy, or what appears to be comedy, anyway. No matter how gifted he may be or how gifted he thinks he may be, drama, melodrama, and nightmarish horror movies just aren't for him. Eternal Sunshine notwithstanding, he's a comedian and that's what the audience wants to see.

So, here comes Yes Man, which looks exactly like Chaos Theory, a movie that got very little business earlier this year. That one starred Ryan Reynolds as a man who has always lived a structured life until one little thing goes wrong, after which he does something completely unpredictable.

This has that premise, only it's a guy who says no his whole life and starts saying yes. To everything. (Comparing it to Liar, Liar almost seemed too easy.)

And there's a new trailer for it, which we found at TrailerAddict. Watching it, this

Anne Fletcher is in talks to direct Walt Disney’s upcoming dance comedy “Matadors” for producer Adam Shankman, according to Variety.

Based on the true story of the Chicago Bulls’ group of male cheerleaders, the film is described as “a comedic take on what happens when a pair of the ultimate basketball fans form a cheerleading squad.”

Choreographer-turned-director Fletcher previously collaborated with Shankman on “Step Up.” Her directing credits also include “27 Dresses” and Disney’s upcoming “The Proposal,” a romantic comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds.

Top Ten Best Movies Midway Through 2008 Figuring out the ten worst films over the course of the first six months of 2008 was difficult because there were so many. Unfortunately, figuring out the best films of the first six months wasn't nearly as difficult as it turns out there was really only one film left on the outside along with one major exception. First off, Cloverfield didn't make the list and for what I believe are obvious reasons. As much as Cloverfield is a fun movie to watch the first time you see it there isn't much to enjoy after that. The first 18 minutes or so are worthless set-up pieces that you never want to watch again and the last 60 minutes of the film are still a bit fun, but the mystery behind the film has already been revealed and the unexpected deaths are no longer unexpected and you begin to

Scarlett Johansson is convinced her relationship with fiance Ryan Reynolds will last, because they are among the few humans who can be monogamous.

The actress claims remaining faithful to one partner is "hard work" and not natural.

She tells the latest issue of Cosmopolitan magazine, "I don't think it's a natural instinct for human beings.

"Monogamy can be hard work for some people. I don't think it applies to everybody, and I don't think a lot of people can do it."

But Johansson insists she is among those who can resist the temptation to cheat: "I believe in finding a soul mate. I've always been in monogamous relationships. I would never want to be in an open one. It'd be too awful."

Reynolds and Johansson announced their engagement in May. The actress previously dated Josh Hartnett and Jared Leto.

Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson has denied reports she is supporting presidential candidate Barack Obama because she has "a crush" on him.

The 23-year-old star has long voiced her support for Obama in his race for the White House in the upcoming U.S. elections - but Johansson was recently accused of favouring the politician because of his good looks and not focusing on his policies.

But a source tells the New York Daily News that the rumours are just not true: "She is a surrogate (Obama campaigner). They're not exchanging love letters. Everyone seems to be forgetting that she's engaged.

"Kal Penn (actor and Obama supporter) is also a surrogate, and no one says he has a crush on Obama."

Johansson is currently engaged to Blade: Trinity actor Ryan Reynolds.

Hollywood beauty Scarlett Johansson has developed a pen pal relationship with Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

The pair has been exchanging regular emails, in which Obama confesses he is a "huge movie lover" and particularly fond of Johansson's performance in Lost in Translation.

The 23-year-old actress - who recently announced her engagement to actor Ryan Reynolds - is a longtime supporter of the Illinois senator. She even joked to reporters in January: "My heart belongs to Barack. I am engaged to Barack Obama.

She reveals their recent "thoughtful" correspondences with Obama in an interview with website Politico.

She says, "You'd imagine that someone like the Senator who is constantly travelling and constantly 'on' - how can he return these personal emails? But he does and in his off-time I know he also calls people who have donated the minimum to thank them.

"I feel like I'm supporting someone, and having a personal dialogue with them, and it's amazing."

Here's one more thing you oughta know: Alanis Morissette has nothing but nice things to say about her ex-fiancé Ryan Reynolds. Even now that he's engaged to Scarlett Johansson. "I'm really happy for him," the singer, who called off her engagement to Reynolds in 2007, told Newsweek. As for reports that her new album, Flavors of Entanglement, was originally supposed to be released on the same day as Johansson's? "My album release date has been moved five times," she said, "so I wasn't even aware of what the dates where." Sounds so reasonable! Where is that trademark anger that made Morissette

Alanis Morissette isn't bitter about her ex-fiance Ryan Reynolds' romance with Scarlett Johansson, insisting the newly engaged couple were meant to be together "spiritually".

Reynolds began dating Johansson last year just months after he ended his four year relationship with the Canadian singer.

But single Morissette insists she isn't jealous or resentful, telling Entertainment Weekly, "On a certain spiritual level, I feel like everyone's where they need to be."

And the star vows never to play out another relationship in the public eye: "Public romance. I'm going to be avoiding that in the future. I think the only time I'll talk about any guy I'm with will be when I'm married with six kids."

Fans of Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson will miss out on the chance to see her sing on stage - the star has ruled out embarking on a tour to promote her new album Anywhere I Lay My Head.

The Matchpoint star released her debut album last week, a collection of Tom Waits covers, but has no plans to follow up the Lp with any live dates.

Johansson, who recently admitted to suffering from stagefright, had been rumoured to be considering playing at a music festival this summer - but has now ruled any future gigs.

A spokesman for Johansson's record label Warner Music says, "It's purely a hobby for her. Now that she's engaged as well (to actor Ryan Reynolds) the opportunities seem to have become even more limited."

Alanis Morissette has revealed that writing her new album was "therapeutic". The Canadian singer worked on Flavours Of Engagement in the aftermath of her split from actor Ryan Reynolds last year.

"Typically, I wait until I've healed a little bit to write, so this was more about if I didn't have to be at (more)

Reynolds' Definitely, Maybe co-star Elizabeth Banks says the couple wanted to send a message, rather than call their pals.

She tells Usmagazine.com, "I texted him to say, 'Are you really engaged or is this a joke?' And he said, 'Yes, we're really engaged!'"

Johansson and Reynolds have been dating since February 2007, shortly after Blade: Trinity star Reynolds broke off his engagement to singer Alanis Morissette.

They announced their engagement earlier this month.

Scarlett Johansson has always dreamed of becoming a bride, according to her close friend and designer Roland Mouret.

Mouret, who was photographed with the newly engaged actress on Monday (5May08), insists the 23-year-old has longed for years to marry and settle down.

He tells People.com, "It's something she's really wanted - to meet someone and get married. She's just such a great person and I'm so happy for her and wish her every happiness. She deserves it."

And although Johansson helped Mouret make a name for himself when she wore his coral gown to the 2005 Golden Globes, he is adamant he is not the designer selected to create a wedding dress for the bride-to-be: "No, no - it's not me!"

Johansson and 31-year-old Ryan Reynolds announced their engagement on Monday (5May08) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala in Manhattan.

Alanis Morissette says she's naturally optimistic – but battled hard times over the last few years when she hit "rock bottom." "I took a break over the past two and half years. I was tending to my personal life," says the singer, who called off her engagement to longtime boyfriend Ryan Reynolds in 2007. During that time, she says she hit "rock bottom" due to "a personal unraveling of significant relationships in my life." (Morissette did not comment about Reynolds's recent engagement to Scarlett Johansson.)But the singer, 33, worked through the low period by writing songs for her upcoming album, Flavors of Entanglement,
