I love when Inside the Actors Studio grills people better known for television or music than movies. Who can forget when James Lipton turned to Jennifer Lopez and said, "Tell us about U-Turn." I cried through the laughter through the tears. The same situation applies to Jennifer Aniston, who is forced to answer questions about Leprechaun, Picture Perfect, and Camp Cucamonga, if we're lucky. Here are the first previews of her conversation with Lipton, which include special insight into The Break-Up and her NBC television series about pals.

I can't tell you why symmetrical movie star Jake Gyllenhaal wants to ford the wild with a dude named Bear Grylls, but he's doing it for our entertainment, thankfully. The Oscar-nominated actor trudged with the Man Vs. Wild guru through Icelandic snows for this Monday's season premiere. Will you gasp in horror when Jakey falls into an icy crevasse, or will you gasp in sexual ecstasy?

We're all stuck with it now, but you know what they say: When life throws you lemons, watch Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman in the greatest kiss ever captured for the screen. Or... something.

I can usually judge whether I like a person based on how much they love Jean-Claude Van Damme. Do they relish in the grace of Bloodsport? The glory of Kickboxer? The sad-looking Raul Julia of Street Fighter? Then they are fine citizens. I hope those mensches are as torqued as I am for Assassination Games, the new Van Damme joint with a red band trailer that just arrived at our doorstep. Do I smell Oscar in the air? Or is that just the nutritional allure of raw brussel sprouts?

I suspect that Ewan McGregor considers lightsaber jokes a tired, verboten issue, but that's the fun of Graham Norton: He doesn't care about your hang-ups and forces you to laugh at them with us! Thanks, Graham. In the following clip, McGregor picks up a lightsaber and duels around with Irish Bridesmaids cop Chris O'Dowd, before fielding an underhand pitch from Mr. Norton. It's so much fun, Queen Amidala might even flash a noticeable emotion at it.

If you had to sit through Robert Rodriguez's Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, there's a good chance you will be forced to see the fourth installment of the Spy Kids franchise when it premieres Aug. 19. Unfortunately for you, Sylvester Stallone will not be reprising his role as the unintentionally hilarious villain toymaker, and even more unfortunately, not even Jessica Alba, Joel McHale, Ricky Gervais and the movie's Aromascope feature will be able to save the latest Spy Kids movie All the Time in the World from kid-approved ridiculousness. At least, that's what the latest trailer makes it seem like.

The people of Taiwan (or at least a small company therein) will not stand idly by as Shia LaBeouf's latest snafu goes unchronicled in Sims-like animation! Our candid Transformers star's recent confession that he allegedly hooked up with Megan Fox is the subject of the latest animated news video from the wizards at NMA. Best part? Harrison Ford makes a cameo, and he's pissed.

Sometimes the Internet is on the cutting edge of viral video mash-ups... and sometimes the Internet falls asleep on the couch, covered in Doritos crumbs. This has to be one of those latter times. How else to explain the alarming fact that it took this long for someone to create a mash-up of No Strings Attached and fellow bang-buddy comedy Friends With Benefits? Click ahead for the obvious, but funny, comparison.

Wondering what your favorite British actors have been up to since filming stopped on the Harry Potter franchise? Well, for some, it looks like Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The upcoming adaptation of John le Carré's bestselling novel from Let the Right One In director Tomas Alfredson features Potter vets Gary Oldman, John Hurt, Toby Jones and Ciaran Hinds, as well as Tom Hardy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Strong, and newly-minted Best Actor winner Colin Firth. British! Also, fantastic, judging by this new international teaser trailer.

Yes, I know. You Harry Potterites well know what Horcruxes are -- the magical vessels that can house a fragment of a wizard or witch's soul -- but the rest of us Muggles might need a little refresher going into July's franchise-ender Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. Luckily, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Ralph Fiennes (Voldemort himself!) and others have put together a handy featurette packed with footage to explain.
