Looney Tunes is not leaving Max after all. The streamer had released a list that included the classic cartoons leaving the platform in December.
Max has since revised their “What’s New on Max This December” press release.
“Looney Tunes was included in error as a title leaving the platform,” read the statement clarifying the status of the classic shorts. “This is not the case and the show will continue streaming on Max.”
An outcry from fans of the show followed on social media after believing Bugs Bunny and his friends would not live on the streaming platform anymore.
The error comes a couple weeks after Wbd announced it would be scrapping the already-completed Coyote Vs. Acme for a tax writeoff. The David Zaslav-run company reconsidered the decision after fan backlash and set up screenings for streamers who might want to buy it.

Director Steven Soderbergh has never really been a fan of orthodoxy, and his idiosyncratic approach to his own work was on full display Sunday night when he launched his latest project, sci-fi series Command Z, at the Metrograph in New York. The Michael Cera-starring dystopian narrative, inspired by Kurt Andersen’s book Evil Geniuses: The Unmaking of America: A Recent History, was shown as part of a “secret screening” for members of the downtown theater.
Soderbergh followed the screening with a Q&a with Florida Representative Maxwell Frost, the first Gen Z congressman, explaining to the audience, “I don’t really want to talk about the show,” and instead quizzing Frost about how he stays hopeful. “How do we convince people to not give up?” Soderbergh asked Frost, who in turn discussed his path to politics and his work organizing.

Last week, The Huffington Post published a column by author and Simpsons writer Larry Doyle entitled "The Jesus-Eating Cult of Rick Santorum." In it, Doyle, a former Catholic, pretends to expose the terrifying truths of Catholic black-robed masses and "cannibalistic reverie." The satirical piece has caused quite a stir and has now even gotten its own condemnation from The Five who devoted a whole segment to yelling about it. However, in the midst of their outraged reverie (I like that word and I'm gonna use it now), they seemed to completely miss the point.

Timing gets all the credit, but good comedy is equally indebted to good word choice. In his collection of short-form material, Deliriously Happy: And Other Bad Thoughts, comedian-writer Larry Doyle lives up to the second half of his hyphenate with a smattering of pieces—some short enough for McSweeney’s lists, some that first appeared in The New Yorker or Esquire—that are all united by a craftsman’s attention to sentence construction and precise language. The former Simpsons and Beavis And Butt-head writer and the author of I Love You, Beth Cooper credits his style to some expected comedy ...

As a kid growing up in central Ohio, the weekends were a very distinctive time for me. There was no school obviously, but Fridays and Saturdays throughout my childhood also provided a specifically unique education. With horror host instructors such as Big Chuck and Little John on channel 8, Super Host on channel 43, and the Ghoul on channel 61, I was emotionally raptured into an otherworld filled with monsters from the deepest parts of space and beyond. Others could have their football games and Wide World of Sports; I was more concerned with blithely living in a universe filled with giant lizards, Ro-Men, She-Creatures, and horrors on various party beaches.
Perhaps this nostalgic affinity for classic horror and science fiction fare has unduly influenced my enthusiastic opinion on Larry Doyle’s novel Go, Mutants!, a delightfully brilliant masterpiece that successfully pays homage to classic creature features and space operas,...

Remember a little while ago, when there was a fun little boomlet of screenwriters biting the hands that fed them? Well now, writer Larry Doyle wants in on that path paved by Dan Harmon (who called his Monster House director a "hack" and Steven Spielberg a "moron") and J.D. Shapiro (who blamed Battlefield Earth on his nutty Scientologist producers). You may already know Doyle as a former staffer for The Simpsons or as the writer of I Love You, Beth Cooper, but now you'll know him as the guy who tore Danny DeVito a new one.

A few months ago we posted that Danny Boyle’s next project after his award winning Slumdog Millionaire was going to be the tale about the American mountain climber who was forced to cut off his own arm after it was crushed on a mountain.
Now Boyle has cast his leading man for this epic tale of survival and that is James Franco. Production Weekly’s Twitter feed, reported that Franco has signed on to star in Boyle’s 127 Hours.
In 2003, mountain climber Aron Ralston made national news when he was forced to amputate his own arm that was crushed under a boulder for more than five days, while climbing in Utah. After the amputation, he had to climb a 65-foot wall of rock to then hike until he was discovered by a family and later rescued by helicopter.
The film was said to start production at the beginning of March in Utah.

Chicago – Chris Columbus is not a filmmaker renowned for his use of subtlety. He seems incapable of telling a relatable human story without relying on his trademark brand of sophomoric slapstick. I was surprised that Macaulay Culkin didn’t pop up in Columbus’s “Rent,” and start hurling paint cans at the characters during their “Seasons of Love.” Even at age 51, Columbus is still an unruly child at heart.
That’s why his best films are the ones aimed at children, such as the original “Home Alone” or the first two “Harry Potter” installments. But when he attempts to reach an older audience, the results are often disastrous. And in an era of exceptional adult comedies, “I Love You, Beth Cooper” is a flat-out embarrassment.
Blu-Ray Rating: 1.0/5.0
This film proves that any source material can be drained of its humanity. The script was written by Larry Doyle, who based it...

I Love You, Beth Cooper
Directed by: Chris Columbus
Cast: Paul Rust, Hayden Panettiere, Jack Carpenter, Lauren Storm, Lauren London
Running Time: 1 hr 40 mins
Rating: PG-13
Due Out: November 3, 2009
Plot: A geeky valedictorian (Rust) gets the cojones to tell the most popular girl in school (Panettiere) that he has always loved her. What follows is a night they’ll never forget.
Who’S It For? Enjoying Hayden Panettiere would help when trying to watch this movie. This is the type of high school movie for those who thought John Tucker Must Die deserved a less brutal fate.
Movie:
It is a feat for a film to make its title character so undesirable, but Beth Cooper doesn’t seem to have much difficulty in doing a lot of things wrong. The film is very set on how we should feel about Hayden Panettiere’s character – she’s a goddess on earth,...

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
Here's my problem with the picture: a furiously-filmed chase through the streets of Paris should be spectacular and thrilling. Instead, it's incoherent, routine, even disappointing. Director Stephen Sommers (The Mummy, Van Helsing) turns in another by-the-numbers action spectacle, this time starring Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Marlon Wayans, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. There are better ways to waste your time and money. Skip it. Also on Blu-ray.

As the summer blockbuster season draws to a close we’re used to film numbers dwindling towards the end of August. However, this weekend see’s Quentin Tarantino’s highly anticipated Inglourious Basterds hitting the cinemas, and after the commerical flop that was Death Proof we can’t wait. Fancy brushing up on some new dance moves? Then check out the new Wayans brothers parody Dance Flick. If dancing isnt getting the girls then take a leaf out of Denis’s book in teen flick I Love You, Beth Cooper and share your true feelings. Or make your wishes come true with the new Robert Rodriguez kids film Shorts. It’s interesting that buddies Tarantino and Rodriguez, who last collaborated on Grindhouse, have released their new films on the same day… maybe another double bill is in order?

Oh, Beth Cooper. She might have slayed readers under the pen of Larry Doyle, but she didn't gain any fans on the big screen. Here are three rants about the film's failings, and this certainly isn't a case of movie reviewers not getting it -- the Chris Columbus production couldn't even pull in its $18 million production budget (it grossed $13.5).
But I Love You, Beth Cooper also failed in its great marketing scheme. As The Wall Street Journal reports, Twentieth Century Fox had big plans for the comedy. They wanted a viral media sensation that would pique curiosity and create a whole false world of copycat fans. See, they paid a high school valedictorian $1,800 to reveal a classmate crush during her graduation speech. Actually, first she was told to share a secret, but "then the next day they said it had to be about my crush. I was like, 'Oh that changes things a bit!

When I read I Love You, Beth Cooper -- and wrote about the book here a few months ago -- I knew that the on-the-way film adaptation would be thorny. Now that I've seen the film, I can say that it is not merely thorny; it is a textbook case of an adaptation gone wrong. Working from his own mostly delightful novel, Simpsons vet Larry Doyle is like a novice driver who, in trying to avoid potholes, veers to hit every one. And, in what he should consider a betrayal of epic proportions, Doyle gets absolutely no help from anyone involved with the film -- not from the cast, not from the editor, and certainly not from director Chris Columbus, who is utterly helpless when his material is not inherently strong.

How do you transform a very funny book into a dreadfully boring movie? I laughed more from reading the first five pages of Larry Doyle's novel than I did during the entirety of Chris Columbus' film version of I Love You, Beth Cooper, despite the fact that Doyle wrote the screenplay. Much of the dialogue is lifted directly from the book, but when spoken on screen, the lines fall painfully flat. That leaves the attempts at physical humor, which are constant, and will tickle to death only those who love to see pratfalls: "Look, Mommy, man fall down and cry out in agony! Ha, ha!"
Leaving aside the source material and the film's relative faithfulness to it, I Love You, Beth Cooper might have worked as either a joyful, gleefully mischievous, yet ultimately conservative rebel yell (a la Ferris Bueller's Day Off) or as a funny yet thought-provoking...

I hate I Love You, Beth Cooper, a movie which, as a friend noted afterward, goes from grad to worse. This Chris Columbus film is as painfully unfunny as any movie this summer -- or in recent memory. A chimp could have written this script, if he had screenplay software and a "laugh-free teen comedy" program. The simian in question here is named Larry Doyle, who has several Simpsons scripts to his credit (as well as the novel on which this script is based). Perhaps he suffered a head injury since he wrote them. Newcomer Paul Rust plays Denis Cooverman, high school valedictorian. As Denis speaks at his graduation ceremony, he uses the opportunity to say things he's always wanted to voice but never had the nerve: outing his gay best friend Rich (Jack T. Carpenter); calling out a couple of bullies;...

Though he’s never so much as spoken to the poor girl before, nerd announces during his high-school valedictorian speech that he “loves” the “hottest” girl in school. In the real world, this would be called an act of passive-aggressive behavior by an antisocial creep, but in the world of adolescent romantic comedies, this is deemed a charming and daring act by a “nice guy” who’s been oppressed by the “hotness” of certain females into silent inaction... till now. This being a male fantasy -- it’s based on a novel by Larry Doyle [Amazon U.S.] [Amazon U.K.], whom I presume is male -- the “hot” girl (Hayden Panettiere: Shanghai Kiss) is charmed by the nerd (Paul Rust [Semi-Pro], who is, creepily, a decade too old for the role), and proceeds to give him the “night of his life,” an all-night postgraduation party that features a variety of life-threatening events for the nerd: he...

Inspired by writers like Woody Allen and Donald Barthelme, Larry Doyle began his writing career with humor pieces for the New Yorker and then moved into television, where he wrote for "Beavis and Butthead" and "The Simpsons." He also started scripting film, among them "Looney Tunes: Back in Action" and "Duplex." Doyle estimates that for every four or five screenplays he writes, one might make it to the screen, and so the rejection of one of those scripts -- the story of a nerdball high school senior who blurts out his love for the school's alpha cheerleader during his valedictory speech, and the aftermath of his outburst -- wasn't that unusual. What was was his decision to turn the script into a novel, 2007's "I Love You, Beth Cooper," a crossover publishing hit (attracting high school readers and post-grads alike) that immediately drew Hollywood's attention, as well as that of director Chris Columbus.

My friend and confidant, the roving radio guy Kevin Finnerty is well known for making some pretty hilarious comments during films. For instance during one film he shouted midway through “I want to leave.” Another time, when a film was dragging terribly, he said “Oh, let it end.” Sometimes his thoughts are summed up by a simple “Ugh,” or “oh boy.” He even interacts with the characters on screen like when one asks “Do you still love me?” Kevin will reply “No.” Given the right (or wrong) film, Kevin can make the experience somewhat enjoyable. What does this have to do with I Love You, Beth Cooper? Quite simply, Kevin was the funniest part of this complete waste of time, money, and film.

If Head of the Class had a drunken tryst with Saved by the Bell while thinking of John Hughes, then Chris Columbus’ I Love You, Beth Cooper would be its Damien. Unfunny in just about every area, from slapstick shenanigans to cartoonish characterizations, Beth Cooper makes other paint-by-horny teenage comedies seem iconic and fresh (I’m looking at you, Can’t Hardly Wait).
Based on the novel by Larry Doyle which won the Thurber Prize for American Humor in 2008, I Love You, Beth Cooper faces the odd disconnect of “what’s funny on paper sometimes isn’t funny at all on-screen.” Featuring a menagerie of characters that are plucked directly out of Bayside High School, our graduating students of Buffalo Grove High School are about to embark on bettering themselves through higher education, parties and riding in hatchbacks. Denis Cooverman (Paul Rust) is everything you would expect from a well-read fan of science-fiction.

Paul Rust and Hayden Panettiere in I Love You Beth Cooper
Photo: 20th Century Fox I have walked out of only one movie in the six years I have been doing this job, and I Love You Beth Cooper came dangerously close to being number two. However, I am positive if I was a paying customer I would have left the theater and asked for my money back after only 15 minutes or so. This movie is downright awful and it extends beyond the stereotypical teen rom-com set-up, which would hardly be reason enough to complain. This film is an assault on your intelligence and a waste of your time. To think Chris Columbus directed it is an absolute shock, and I don't say this as a die-hard fan of Home Alone or Mrs. Doubtfire, but you would think the director of those two films, plus the first two Harry Potter features wouldn't sink this low.

Directed by: Chris Columbus
Cast: Paul Rust, Hayden Panettiere, Jack T. Carpenter, Lauren Storm
Running Time: 1 hr 41 mins.
Rating: PG-13
Release Date: June 10, 2009
Plot: Super-nerd valedictorian (Rust) proclaims his love for the hottest girl in school, Beth Cooper (Panettiere), during his graduation speech. That night, Beth shows up at his door and takes him out for the night of his life. Based on the novel by Larry Doyle.
Who’s It For? Normally I would say this is all about the teenage crowd, but even they should have enough taste to avoid this. The only ones I can’t stop are those with huge Panettiere crushes.
Expectations: A little fun high school humor never hurt anyone. If I give it a second of thought, I’m not a Panettiere fan. I’ve seen every episode of “Heroes” and after the last one, I finally stopped.

Remember that guy in high school who was effortlessly cool? He always seemed to catch the lucky breaks and make the right decisions, all seemingly without breaking a sweat? It's the Ferris Bueller Syndrome. You wanted to despise him, but you knew that doing so would say less about him and more about your petty and transparent jealousy for his unfair good fortune. Larry Doyle is one of those guys, at least among comedy writers. He was a staff writer on The Simpsons during what many consider to be the show's second golden age (1997-2001), where he penned the best Comic Book Guy episode ever with the ironic title "Worst Episode Ever". He wrote for Beavis & Butt-Head back when it wasn't an embarrassment to say "I write for MTV." He's been an editor at Spy magazine, a frequent contributor to The New Yorker, and a former columnist for Esquire. The...

Review in a Hurry: Supremely dorky high-school valedictorian Dennis (Paul Rust) decides to tell it like it is in his commencement address, trashing bullies by name and declaring his love for head cheerleader Beth Cooper (Hayden Panettiere). We've seen nerds pine for less-unattainable-than-expected hotties before, but rarely does it feel this real...and funny. The Bigger Picture: After a decade or so of death throes under the watch of generic cutie-pies like Amanda Bynes and Hilary Duff, the teen comedy makes a strong comeback in this adaptation by Larry Doyle of his own comedic novel. Rust is no hunky actor pretending to be nebbish under glasses and a bad hairdo—he is genuinely strange-looking, and his...

Based on the novel by former Simpsons writer Larry Doyle (who also scripted), I Love You, Beth Cooper opens with a high-school super-nerd boldly declaring his long-unspoken love for the head cheerleader during his valedictory speech. It’s a supremely clueless moment in a supremely clueless movie, but it sets up a potentially interesting dilemma: What will happen when, gulp, he actually has to speak to her? How might the real girl square with the fantasy? After the movie’s over, that’s still an open question, because Doyle and director Chris Columbus peel back the fantasy of a untouchable ...

Hayden Panettiere, best known as a cheerleader-turned-superhero on "Heroes," took on yet another high school role in "I Love You, Beth Cooper," in theaters Friday. In the movie, based on a novel by the same name, dorky Buffalo Grove High School valedictorian Denis Cooverman (Paul Rust) proclaims his love for Beth Cooper during his speech at graduation and manages to get the attention of both Beth and her vindictive boyfriend in the process.
MTV News caught up with Panettiere to talk about the Chris Columbus-directed teen flick, her work as an animal-rights activist and whether she really was like Beth Cooper herself back in high school.

Quick: what actress said she would only go naked for an Oscar-caliber role? If you answered Hayden Panettiere, you'd be right. (Of course, if you answered Megan Fox or a few dozen other actresses, you'd also be right.) Two years ago, the budding Heroes starlet claimed: "I'd never go nude or shave my head - unless it's for an Oscar!" Either things have changed, or I Love You, Beth Cooper is a sleeper contender for an Academy Award. Chris Columbus' film, based on the book by Larry Doyle, opens on Friday. Panettiere stars in the titular role as a freshly-graduated high school student who decides to show a nerdy valedictorian (Paul Rust) the night of his life. And her breasts.
Panettiere confidently drops her towel in front of Rust in the locker room scene. "It didn't bother me much," she told People. "I don't think it takes much thought,...

Fiction be damned this week as the documentary makes an impressively strong showing amongst the new releases. For those who simply must make believe, there are vampire slayers, guys and girls in love, guys and guys in love, and a guy pretending to be a guy who loves other guys.

It's about time Universal started dipping into their overflowing classic monster pool to bring us some entertainment! That's just what they're set to do with their upcoming live-action adaptation of the Larry Doyle novel "Go Mutants!". Variety reports that Doyle will write the script for the film which is a teen comedy/adventure set in a high school where all of the tropes from classic 1950s alien invasion movies came true. Years later, the children of those mutant creatures have assimilated among the other kids. According to Doyle, the book and movie invite cameos from '50s fright fixtures like Gort -- the robot from "The Day The Earth Stood Still" -- and "The Creature From The Black Lagoon". Stay tuned for more....

Universal has been busy readying remakes of many of their classic horror icons -- The Mummy kicked it off to a slow start ten years ago (gee, it's due for another remake!), The Wolfman hits theaters this fall, and allegedly The Bride of Frankenstein, The Creature From the Black Lagoon, and The Invisible Man will follow. But they're not just planning on remaking their stable, but option a few younger and fresher versions of their icons too.
According to Variety, the studio has optioned Larry Doyle's upcoming novel Go Mutants! It's a teen comedy / adventure story set in a world where all those classic 1950s alien invasion movies actually happened. A few decades later, the offspring of those invasions have assimilated among the rest of the population, and are happily attending high school.
It's too early to tell if it'll be another Monster Squad, as the book doesn't hit store shelves until next summer,...

Go Mutants! has gone Hollywood.
Universal Pictures has swooped in and purchased the movie rights to Larry Doyle's forthcoming comedy/adventure novel and will have him write the screenplay at the same time he's finishing writing the book. The studio has gone to their go-to guy, Brian Grazer and his Imagine Entertainment company, to develop the picture, making this the 45,291th film that Imagine is doing for Uni.
Doyle's book/screenplay/franchise in the making is set in a high school where the kids are the offspring of mutants, would-be alien invaders and monster men/women. Two or three generations down the line, the teens of the creatures have now become just as big douchebags as the human kids from High School Musical. Remember the days when a monster would just be thinking about how to kill the humans and not about how they could win the school's pep rally?...

Thank you Cinematical! I was getting worried that The Weinstein Company’s woes would make the release of “Youth in Revolt” even more unlikely. The film is based on C.D. Payne’s book and stars Michael Cera as Nick Twisp, a young guy suffering from raging hormones and the tendency to get himself into serious trouble. If you’ve read the book – and if you haven’t, you must; it’s fantastic – you’d know Cera is ideal for the lead role. He’ll be joined by Steve Buscemi as his father, Zach Galifianakis as Jerry the truck driver, Justin Long as Paul Saunders and Ray Liotta as Lance Wescott. The poster seals the deal. “Youth in Revolt” must be hitting theaters on October 30th as expected.

Novelist Larry Doyle must be flying pretty high right now. After all, the guy hasn’t even finished his current work-in-progress, “Go Mutants!” and it’s already been picked up for a silver screen treatment. He’ll have to do double-duty now, penning out a script as he completes the book. I think he’ll somehow find a way to manage.
The story is described by Variety as a “teen comedy/adventure set in a high school.” Expect both film and book to draw heavily from classic Hollywood sci-fi; the idea behind “Go Mutants!” is that “all the tropes from classic 1950s alien invasion movies came true.” Things are taken a step further than that even: years after the initial invasions, human and alien societies have commingled to the point that their children go to school together.
Universal snatched up the rights to “Go Mutants!” with Brian Grazer of Imagine Entertainment set to produce.

"Denis could think of no logical reason why he should not attempt to mate with Beth Cooper. There were no laws explicitly against it. They were of the same species, and had complimentary sex organs, most likely, based on extensive mental modeling Denis had done. They had both grown up here in the Midwest, only 3.26 miles apart, and could therefore be assumed to share important cultural values. They both drank Snapple Diet Lime Green Tea, though Denis had begun doing so only recently." -Larry Doyle, I Love You, Beth Cooper North Shore Studios in Vancouver, British Colombia, just off the Second Narrows Bridge.

Cinematical has just received these exclusive images from a new version of the book I Love You, Beth Cooper that author Larry Doyle (The Simpsons) is putting out (in connection with the upcoming film) that contains a whole bunch more of the hilarious art featured in the first one. If you haven't yet read I Love You, Beth Cooper then I strongly suggest picking up a copy because it's easily one of the funniest books I've read in the past couple of years (but I'm also a sucker for those teen angst tales; The Catcher in the Rye is, like, my favorite book of all time).
I Love You, Beth Cooper follows the story of a pimple-faced high school valedictorian named Denis Cooverman who professes his love for the school's hottest student (Beth Cooper) while doling out his speech to the entire class on graduation day. From that point on,...

Trailer for I Love You, Beth Cooper in which a nerdy valedictorian proclaims his love for the hottest and most popular girl in school – Beth Cooper (Panettiere) – during his graduation speech. Much to his surprise, Beth shows up at his door that very night and decides to show him the best night of his life.
Chris Columbus (Home Alone) directs and teh film stars Hayden Panettiere (Heroes) and Paul Rust (Inglourious Basterds).
This is probably going to be rather cheesy teen nonsense. However I have a soft spot for this genre from teh 80's with films like Rob Reiner's The Sure Thing, John Hughes films (Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, Ferris Bueller's Day Off) and Paul Brickman's Risky Business. Luke Greenfield's 2004 movie The Girl Next Door captured the right vibe, showing it is possible to make quality movies of this kind post 2000. Larry Doyle who has written for...
