There wasn't a lot left to the imagination this week at Movieline, which has spent much of the last several days in a bitter ratings war with the shadowy body that oversees tastemaking bodies such as ours. While that wasn't resolved by the close of business today, you have the next two days (at least) to judge our content and mission for yourself -- as it should be. Start with the stories after the jump, and have a terrific weekend!
· Accidental Werewolf Week unfolded as New Moon besieged us with bad CGI and Taylor Lautner's werepenis, The Wolfman introduced its latest trailer, and moviedom's lamest werewolves convened in our conference room for a summit.
· Among the luminaries who paid us a visit this week, we welcomed Bill Murray, Mike White, Diablo Cody, Carey Mulligan and Lone Scherfig, Tobin Bell, Adam Goldberg, Dominic Cooper, Sara Rue and Rocky Carroll. And we eavesdropped on a gabby Bronson Pinchot.
· Some of this week's burning questions: What's up with Zach Galifianakis and Arby's? What will be the next great TV show inspired by a T-shirt? And how does "persistent genital arousal disorder" stack up against past SNL Weekend Update afflictions, anyway?
· Would-be Tarzan Dewet Du Toit and Marge Simpson's nipples occupied opposite sides of our New Discoveries spectrum.
· Just when you thought the Roman Polanski case might be slowing down, it Just. Kept. Coming.
· 2012 had a strong, unlikely showing itself with Adam Lambert's moving love theme and music video. The schlocky knock-off is on the way, of course.
· Caprice Crane offered up a new One-Page Screenplay, Cross Road Blues.
· The Boondock Saints reinforced its cult status with a sequel, and Dolemite joined the ranks of Bad Movies We Love.
· Mad Men (and its requisite Power Rankings), Project Runway and The Hills all came fully condensed from our spiffy recap machine.
· New trailers for Old Dogs and Serious Moonlight were subject to the Two-Minute Verdict.
· The Balloon Boy story crashed hard after takeoff.
· Spike Jonze's new movie found a welcoming, responsive young audience. Where the Wild Things Are didn't do too badly, either
