Hot News: The Huff's 10 Best Movies of 2011


For the past two weeks, we've seen the most respected film critics offer up their 2011 top ten lists all across the internet. And these lists all pretty much look the same, with a few exceptions here and there. These are lists from people who watch movies for a living. Agree or disagree with what they have to say, you have to admit, these so-called pundits are far removed from the average American filmgoer who pays to see their movies just for fun. So we decided to travel into the heartland, to see what real audiences are watching. In doing so, we've stumbled across one young man from Palisades, New York, whose top 10 list looks nothing like what we've seen come before it. So, we thought we'd share it with you heading into this New Year. Here, now, is the internet's own Brian Huff Jr., aka The Huff, with, in his own opinion, the top 10 best movies of 2011. Watch and enjoy, then share your thoughts below.

Christopher Lee Talks Saruman in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey


The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is set to return quite a few characters from The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy, but one of fandom's favorites is legendary actor Christopher Lee as Saruman.

While the character wasn't present in J.R.R. Tolkien's original novel, future literature noted that Saruman was quite active during the time of this adventure, and director Peter Jackson is going to focus on some of that history with his interpretation of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

Over the holidays, Christopher Lee brought a special message to his fans, offering some insight into Saruman's plight in this new movie. He also speaks out on his appearances in Hugo, The Wicker Tree, and Dark Shadows.

Check out the video below.

This is what Christopher Lee had to say about Saruman in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

"I did my part in about four days. What is extremely important is, in these two films, which, of course, are before The Lord of the Rings...Saruman, whom I play again, is indeed, still Saruman the White. But he is a good and noble man. And he is still the head of the council of wizards. As he always was."

About Dark Shadows, the actor had this to say.

"It is not a long part. Again, I only play short parts. They must be short parts. But they must be parts that mean something. That matter. That people notice when I am on the screen, and they will remember the character when they see the film."

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey comes to theaters December 14th, 2012 and stars Cate Blanchett, Saoirse Ronan, Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood, Martin Freeman, David Tennant, Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee. The film is directed by Peter Jackson.

Take a look at the illustrations below, courtesy of Russ Bowen's Twitter feed, which tease some intriguing stunts, including the "traveling flame effect."

First Look at Erica Durance as Wonder Woman in Harry's Law Episode 2.11


Smallville's Erica Durance, best known for playing Lois Lane on that hit CW series, is trading one iconic DC Comics character for another as she slips into the legendary Wonder Woman Costume on an upcoming episode of Harry's Law.

On Wednesday, January 11, Erica Durance will play a psychologically damaged woman who dons the outfit, becoming a vigilante out for justice. She must then seek out the help of Harry's Law after finding herself in a bit of trouble. Check out Erica Durance in her Wonder Woman costume below, which seems to be the same exact costume worn by Adrianne Palicki in NBC's infamously discarded pilot.

Erica Durance is Wonder Woman #1

Erica Durance is Wonder Woman #2

Erica Durance spoke out about climbing into the sexy blue, red, and gold costume for Episode 2.11: Gorilla My Dreams, calling it a very surreal experience.

"It was a lot of fun. I think any woman would be lying if she didn't have a moment's hesitation...You know, you're jumping into some pretty tight clothes. But it's so much more than that. It's such an iconic character.

I will say this: There's a whole difference to being ready to wear Underoos and being ready to wear a pair of pants that are slim-fitting. I am grateful that I am wearing the pants. And I like the new costume."

Harry's Law episode 2.11, "Gorilla My Dreams" airs on NBC January 11th, 2012. The episode stars Necar Zadegan.
