| Paul Walker's Daughter Suing Porsche Over Fatal Crash Posted:  ANTHONY McCARTNEY, AP Entertainment WriterLOS ANGELES (AP) - Paul Walker's daughter is suing Porsche, claiming the sports car that her father was in when he was killed two years ago suffered from numerous design defects. The lawsuit filed Monday by Meadow Rain Walker seeks unspecified damages for defects that her lawyers claim kept the actor trapped in the Porsche Carrera GT when it crashed and burst into flames in November 2013. The suit claims the car, which was marketed as a street-legal race car, lacked a proper stability control system and safeguards to protect occupants and keep it from catching fire after a collision. An email sent to representatives of Porsche North America was not immediately returned. The lawsuit was first reported Monday by celebrity website TMZ. Walker's death occurred on a break in the filming of "Furious 7," the latest sequel in the "Fast & Furious" franchise. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| 8 Stars You Won't Believe Got Their Start in Horror Movies Posted: Everyone needs to start somewhere and for a lot of Hollywood stars, their first big break was in a low-budget horror film. You already know that Kevin Bacon got skewered in the first "Friday the 13th," and that Jennifer Aniston had to defend herself from a murderous sprite in "Leprechaun." But you might not have seen some of these future Oscar winners and superheroes' early films where they had to pretend to be terrified of parasites, critters, vampires and (the horror!) evil corn.

| 29 Times 'Lizzie McGuire' Was the Most Important Show in Your Life Posted: Oh, "Lizzie McGuire." How could we have made it through our painfully awkward adolescence without you? There are few shows more important to anyone who grew up in the 2000s than The Disney Channel's "Lizzie McGuire." Lizzie (Hilary Duff) -- along with besties Gordo (Adam Lamberg) and Miranda (Lalaine) -- handled life's most humiliating moments with class. OK, not really, but they made middle school life so much better by showing us all that you can get through the misery with humor, heart, and the support of family and friends. Also, emphasis on the humor. So, in honor of the special place where "Lizzie McGuire" lives in our hearts, here are some of the show's most important/memorable moments.

| Vin Diesel Says a New 'Fast & Furious' Trilogy Will End the Series Posted: Diesel took to his Facebook page on Friday to announce that not only is he hard at work on helping develop the eighth flick in the franchise, but that the series (or in his words, "SAGA") would continue for a new trilogy, before wrapping up with a 10th film. Those ambitious plans are the reason, according to Diesel, that "Furious 8" doesn't have a director yet, refuting claims that multiple people have turned down the job, thanks in part to his own difficulty during the production of "Furious 7." (Studio Universal has also denied those claims.) In his Facebook post last week, Diesel indicated that he had huge influence in selecting a director for not only "Furious 8," but the next two films as well, and the actor said he was working closely with producer Neal Moritz and Universal to decide who would helm each installment of this new trilogy. Diesel then promised that his next post would reveal those directors, though when he updated his page again on Sunday, there was still no progress on that front; instead, Diesel thanked fans for their patience with the process, and for their loyalty to the series.
As ScreenCrush notes, a trajectory for three more "Furious" flicks would likely mean that "Fast & Furious 10" would come out around 2021, and locking in directors for a project so far in advance is uncommon. But could Diesel be plotting to direct one (or all) of the movies himself? The rumor mill certainly thinks he's gunning for the job, and fans on his Facebook page apparently want to see it happen, too. We'll have to wait and see how this shakes out in the coming weeks and months. But we can guarantee that Diesel will have plenty to say about it, regardless of what happens.

| Quentin Tarantino Hates Netflix, Still Tapes Movies With VHS Posted:  Director Quentin Tarantino is no stranger to shock and awe on the big screen thanks to flicks like "Django Unchained" and "Kill Bill," but it's some recent remarks he's made about streaming that are truly jaw-dropping.In an excerpt from author Tom Roston's new book "I Lost it at The Video Store: A Filmmakers' Oral History of a Vanished Era," Tarantino and other directors discuss services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, and what they mean for the future of movies. While many of Tarantino's peers say they've embraced the new technology as an inevitable part of Hollywood's evolution, Tarantino remains unconvinced. "I am not excited about streaming at all," Tarantino says in the book. "I like something hard and tangible in my hand. And I can't watch a movie on a laptop. I don't use Netflix at all." Instead, Tarantino said, he relies on his library of approximately 8,000 VHS tapes and DVDs, and he still tapes movies off of TV using his VCR. But while he's not necessarily alone in disliking streaming services -- in the same excerpt, David O. Russell calls Netflix "a bunch of dreck" -- he does seem to be clinging to the past more than any other filmmaker interviewed. In fact, Darren Aronofsky said he's specifically thinking of streaming now when he's making movies, going so far as to commission separate sound mixes of flicks like "Noah" so that they can play properly on devices like smartphones and tablets. "... [T]here's a real audience there, and you have to be conscious of it," Aronofsky said. "That's the most depressing thing I've ever heard in my life," Tarantino replied. It didn't make it into the excerpt, but Tarantino reportedly then sat on his front porch and shook his fist at the local young whippersnappers while shouting at them to get off of his lawn. Afterward, he allegedly set his VCR to record "Wheel of Fortune" and went to bed at 6 p.m. Or so we imagine.

| The 9 Best Emergency Room TV Shows, Ranked Posted: In real life, the emergency room may be a place where you wait and wait and wait for treatment until your arm falls off, but on TV, it's the most exciting place there is. Every week, life-and-death drama plays out there, and every second counts. The stakes couldn't be higher, or the drama more intense. And yet, for all the dozens of medical shows that have aired, only a few actually center on the emergency room or emergency doctors and paramedics. There'll be a couple more this fall: "Code Black," on CBS, and "Chicago Med," joining "Chicago Fire" and "Chicago PD" on NBC. Here are some all-time great ER shows for you, stat.

| 'Who's the Boss?' Star Danny Pintauro Reveals He's HIV-Positive Posted:  A former child star has revealed some shocking health news in an effort to raise awareness for others.Danny Pintauro, who starred on '80s sitcom "Who's the Boss?," appeared on an episode of "Oprah: Where Are They Now?" this weekend and announced that he's HIV-positive. Pintauro, who's now 39, told Oprah that he contracted the virus in February 2003 during a period in his life when he was experimenting heavily with drugs -- specifically crystal meth -- and sex. Pintauro explained that he first decided to try crystal meth after the end of a two-year relationship, in an effort to lower his inhibitions with new sexual partners. Such drug use is common in the gay community, the actor said, and while it's a widespread practice, it's also dangerous, as Pintauro soon discovered. " ... [Y]ou can do everything you think you need to do to take care of yourself, but because of what meth does to your brain and to your body, no matter how hard you try, you're still opening yourself up to those possibilities -- whatever STI you can think of, it's so much more prevalent that you're going to pick that up," he told Oprah. After receiving his diagnosis, Pintauro said he felt worthless, thinking to himself, "No one is ever going to love me now. ... I should just give up on trying to find someone." But eventually, the actor said, he came to terms with his diagnosis; he's now happily married to Wil Tabares, who he wed in 2014. He's also revealed his status to his former "Boss" costars Tony Danza and Judith Light, who he said were "really supportive." But Pintauro said the main reason he was speaking out now about his diagnosis is because he wants to not only de-stigmatize HIV, but also help others in the gay community prevent contracting the virus in the same way that he did. "The idea of being gay, coming out as gay and having a meth problem is not that far-fetched of a concept. And that's a problem," Pintauro told Oprah. " ... If you're paying any bit of attention, you realize that HIV isn't a death sentence anymore. That's one of the 'beacon of light' aspects of this whole situation that I want to take on. You can live a healthy life, you can have a happy life. ... For me, HIV is the new closet in the sense that, until we all come out of the HIV closet and start talking about it ... we [won't become] more accepted."

| Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting Are Divorcing After 21 Months Posted:  "The Big Bang Theory" star Kaley Cuoco had a whirlwind romance with tennis player husband Ryan Sweeting, and now, the pair are parting ways after 21 months of marriage.People reports that the couple, who married on December 31, 2013, have decided to divorce. Cuoco's rep released a statement to People confirming the news. "Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting have mutually decided to end their marriage," the statement said. "They ask for privacy at this time. No further statement will be issued regarding this matter." Cuoco and Sweeting got engaged in September 2013 after only a few months of dating. Rumors of an impending split surfaced earlier this year, which Cuoco addressed in a since-deleted Instagram post back in April, writing about Sweeting's tennis-related injuries and "constant 'conversation' regarding our marriage and basically any daily decision we decide to make." After news of the split broke, the actress added another photo to Instagram of her dog, Norman, simply captioned "#mood."
