If you're in the mood for a good cry this summer, "The Fault In Our Stars" will do the trick. It's a weepie about cancer and beautiful young people, all powered by a hot soundtrack. And if you want to get those tears working early, five clips from the movie have dropped online. Shailene Woodley stars in this one as a young woman with terminal cancer who meets a handsome young man in her support group and they fall in love. But as you might expect, their romance may be tinged with something far more tragic. We won't say what happens, though folks who read the book by John Green probably already know. Josh Boone directs this one, which has a script by Mark Weber and Scott Neustadter ("The Spectacular Now"), and as manipulative as this movie sounds, Woodley is always a charming presence. The Fault In Our Stars" opens on June 6th.

Allegations of a union “shakedown” and “extortion” in the hallway of a Las Vegas hotel have been leveled against leaders of an Iatse local in New Orleans. The explosive charges, which only now have come to light, were made by Iatse Sound Local 695 business agent Jim Osburn at a hearing shortly before his North Hollywood-based union was placed into trusteeship in February. Osburn’s local was put on trial after leaders of Studio Mechanics Local 478 in Louisiana accused him of obstructing their efforts to collect so-called “assessments” on the wages of out-of-state workers who film in Louisiana. Typically, the local takes a 3% cut of their wages, which is permitted under the Iatse’s constitution and by-laws. Related: Hollywood Teamsters Boss Tells Drivers To Stop On-Set Fistfights Osburn, who has headed Local 695 on and off for most of the past 40 years, denied the obstruction charges and leveled some allegations of his...

This summer cancer gets adorkable with "The Fault In Our Stars," a movie about two very attractive young people who have cancer and fall in love and then have feelings and there will be much crying and a hip soundtrack to go with it. And now an extended trailer is here to punch you in the heart muscle. Get the Kleenex. Directed by Josh Boone, based on the book by John Green, and adapted by Mark Weber and Scott Neustadter ("The Spectacular Now"), the story centres on a couple of teens who meet at a cancer support group and fall in love.

First thought upon hearing the plot for the just-announced comedy Save the Date: "another goddamn wedding movie?" First thought after seeing the cast: "I can't believe I'm going to be excited to see another goddamn wedding movie!" The script focuses on two sisters and their approaches to life and marriage: "one who's happy with the status quo and doesn't see any reason to marry her musician boyfriend while the other's obsessed with planning her upcoming wedding." (Melancholia much?) But the cast is already impressive: Alison Brie (Community, Mad Men) and Lizzy Caplan (Mean Girls, Party Down) play the sisters and Marin Starr (Adventureland, Party Down), Geoffrey Arend (Super Troopers) and Mark Weber (Scott Pilgrim) are the supporting cast we've got so far. And I don't need any more than that -- ticket sold. The script is by graphic novelist Jeffrey Brown, and Mike Mohan will direct the film in July in La.

A Wisconsin couple had just one request for the hospital where their baby was to be born this week: Get us married, Stat. Originally scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, the wedding of parents-to-be Erin Heather and Mark Weber was to take place only a week before their baby's Feb. 26 due date. But when Heather went into labor prematurely, at about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 17, she and her boyfriend of 11 years rushed to St. Mary's Hospital in Madison to say their "I do's" in a makeshift chapel there instead, at 11 in the morning rather than 4:30 in the afternoon. On the way,...

Check Jimmy Palmiotti off your list of comics creators still looking for a Halloween costume. According his tweets, he's got his Comedian outfit from "Watchmen" all taken care of—even if he's still working on growing out his mustache.
Meanwhile, Jim Lee sketched a costume last night that you won't see him draw too often, and he posted an image in his feed. There are a few other Twitter pics you should check out as well today, as the webcomics crew from Transmission X seems to have set up an exhibit in Portugal featuring some mighty fine decorations. Unfortunately, there are no pics to accompany Rob Liefeld's announcement that he'll be getting "Lakers stuff" shaved into his head to kick off the new NBA season.
Plenty more awaits you after the jump in the Twitter Report for October 28, 2009.

A slushy mixture of poor writing and entry-level directing, Paramount and Nickelodeon Movies' "Snow Day" is facing a dismal forecast of marketplace indifference and a critical flurry that will effectively bury it.
Unlike Nickelodeon's "Good Burger" (which had some very funny moments) and "The Rugrats Movie" (which was a hit at the boxoffice), "Snow Day" is sporadically humorous and strictly for younger viewers and families. It's a muffed ensemble goof-fest centered on the idea that the inhabitants of a small North American town have life-changing melodramas -- and everyone gets away with destruction of property and brazen disregard for authority -- when Mother Nature disrupts everything.
Chevy Chase as a competent but underappreciated weatherman and Chris Elliott as the dreaded Snowplowman are the two most prominent adults in a scenario that mostly centers on the former's teenage son Hal (Mark Weber) and his love-struck quest to win Claire (Emmanuelle Chriqui), the town's most popular girl, swimmer and dater of pompous jerks.
In his feature debut after chalking up many seasons worth of television credits, including episodes of the Nickelodeon series "The Adventures of Pete & Pete," director Chris Koch has a rough time with the uneven screenplay credited to newcomers Will McRobb and Chris Viscardi. There's just no vital energy running through the film.
From very early on, savvy viewers will gather that Hal's best girl buddy Lane (Schuyler Fisk) is the true love he seeks. His younger sister Natalie (Zena Grey) is another demanding playmate who is threatened by Hal's elaborate romancing of Claire -- romancing that even features an appeal to Claire on live local TV.
Claire's bratty boyfriend Chuck (David Paetkau) is not amused, which eventually leads to a less-than-riveting snowmobile chase between the spoiled beauty's rival beaus.
It actually takes about 20 minutes too long for a blizzard to blanket the town and start the titular event -- schools are closed, streets blocked, etc.
Nominally amusing antics ensue as Natalie leads a commando group of kids, including the hapless little fat kid (Josh Peck) who farts a lot, in premeditated acts of mischief. Their biggest target is Elliott's hygienically challenged boogeyman who drives a big, smoking snowplow and is pegged as the reason why "there's never been two snow days in a row."
Pam Grier as Chase's tough-love producer and Iggy Pop as a drippy radio DJ are two distinctive talents who are lost in this cinematic whiteout. As Hal's mobile-phone-sprouting mom, Jean Smart goes through toddler-reprogramming with the creative pranks of her youngest rugrat (Connor Matheus).
Built on the flimsiest of premises, with the best moments being unhumorous and belonging to Webber and Fisk, as well as Chriqui's high school beauty queen providing a comely diversion in her swimsuit scenes, "Snow Day" was filmed in Calgary and Edmonton. Blame Canada.
