The latest trailer for the fourth Resident Evil flick, Resident Evil: Afterlife, hit the web today, which is guaranteed to make a certain number of people very excited, while the rest are probably apathetic or outright hostile to this latest piece of franchise dreck. Of course, the fact that the Resident Evil movies ran out of ideas half a decade ago - after Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) - isn't relevant as long as they keep making money, but you'd think that Screen Gems and Constantin Films could muster just an ounce of respect for the series' fans and actually pull together a film that was as frightening as the source material. Instead it looks like we'll just be getting another Ultraviolet, but without the creative art direction.

Text message fast becoming acceptable way of asking girl out Down Under
Now asking a girl out on a date can be less daunting, with text messages fast becoming an acceptable way to approach them, reveals an Australian research on technology habits.
The research conducted by Telstra, led to the discovery of an entirely new set of dating rules.
The findings showed that one in two Australians find it okay to ask someone on a first date via a text message.
But it also showed that more than half do not find breaking-up with someone via text message, email or phone acceptable.
Telstra Consumer Executive Director Jenny Young said the results aren't surprising, as the number of mobile phones in Australia exceeded the total population of the country.
"Few aspects of our lives have been influenced as much by technology as our love lives," the Courier Mail quoted her as saying.
"It's clear there are now so many more ways for couples to interact than there was 10 years ago, from email to social networking, instant messaging and video calling," she said.
Some found being asked out on a date via text message to mean that the guy does not have the courage for a face-to-face meet, hence rendering him not worth knowing.
Others found that it's a great way to ask a girl out, as should she want to turn down the guy, it would be much easier than when the person is right in front.
Last year Telstra handled a massive 8.9 billion text messages and their latest State of Nation report suggests technology is changing the dating landscape altogether with Australians even creating digital dating etiquette and tactics.
The study suggests many people play 'hard-to-get' during technological courtship, with 42 percent purposely delaying their response to a message in order to appear uninterested.
To educate Australians on the new rules of courtship, Telstra invited the authors of Flirtexting, Debra Goldstein and Olivia Baniuszewicz, to Australia give some tips on technological courtship.
Johnny Depp Will Not Marry Vanessa Paradis
Johnny Depp confessed he doesn't want to marry his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis, arguing he will only burden her with his name.
Depp explained: "It would be a shame to ruin her last name! It's so perfect - Vanessa Paradis. So beautiful. It would be such a drag to stick her with Paradis-Depp. It's like a flat note.
For all intents and purposes we are married. We have two kids together and she is the woman in my life.
But if she ever said: 'Hey, let's get hitched', I would do it in a second. We'll do it if the kids want us to, or maybe when the kids are old enough to enjoy it with us."
Depp also said he's not sure that getting married will change their way of life. "Marriage can be whatever you define it as. For example, I don't feel like I need a piece of paper that says I own her and she owns me.
I think signing a piece of paper doesn't mean anything in the eyes of God or in the eyes of people. The thing is, if you are together and you love each other and are good to each other, make babies and all that, for all intents and purposes you are married."
Depp is the father of two children, Lily-Rose and Jack, with his seven-years companion, French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis.
He and his family divide their time between Los Angeles and a villa in the South of France. He has also dated actresses Sherilyn Fenn, Jennifer Grey, Winona Ryder, and model Kate Moss.

Harrison Ford Finally Marries Calista
Harrison Ford Finally Marries Calista Flockhart :
If Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart weren't already official, we don't know who is.
But the long-term couple have finally made it legal, tying the knot in Santa Fe , N.M. , on Tuesday in a ceremony at the governor's mansion presided over by Governor Bill Richardson, a rep for Flockhart confirmed to E! News.
Ford, 67, and the 45-year-old Brothers & Sisters star got engaged in early 2009 after more than seven years together.
But maybe, understandably, Ford wasn't quite ready to take the plunge again, having already been married twice.
He and first wife, Mary Marquardt, spent 15 years (including 1977, when Star Wars came out) together, and then he and Melissa Mathison were married for 21 years.
This is the first marriage for Flockhart, who adopted son Liam in 2001. Ford has four children from his previous relationships, plus three grandchildren.

“She wanted them retouched further, but the studio had already spent its post-production budget. The studio discussed making her foot the bill for any enhancements,” the source added,
A rep for Aniston said: “All films go through print adjustments, and this is no different from the rest.”

The hashtag #sachinisgod is used by his fans on Twitter (and they are aplenty) whenever Tendulkar plays a magical cricketing innings, and sometimes, during low spells, too.
Obama's
Indian designers in Obama's 'nude' dress row:
Nit-picking has been high on the agenda when the US got its first non-white President and First Lady. Michelle Obama's evening gown at the State dinner in White House has sparked off a controversy over the description of the dress's colour.
From the moment she stepped into the limelight, Mrs Obama was hailed as the ''First Lady of Fashion'', the lady who could carry off High Street buys and glittering designer gowns with equal panache.
However, her choice of gown for a State dinner has sparked a debate about race and the delicate matter of whether one can call a dress colour ''nude'' when it really depends on the wearer.
The dress was described by the designer as a "sterling-silver sequin, abstract floral, nude strapless gown".
"We talk of nude now and there is no one colour. It's politically incorrect," The Telegraph quoted Gale Epstein, a lingerie storeowner as saying.
"There is a wide range for skin tone colours. Human skins tones are a whole colour palette unto themselves," Epstein added.
Epstein prefers to use a range of names, from "light chai" to "espresso", to describe her wares.
The row must have weighed down on the designer Naeem Khan, who was overjoyed to get this chance of being part of this historic occasion.
He, however, refused to comment on the controversy that seems to be swirling around the dress he designed.
Fashion designers like Vijay Arora and Anjana Bhargav have rubbished such views and said that there's nothing politically incorrect nor racial about the description of the dress and that people should stop reading too much into such things.
Mrs Obama has been keen to showcase an international array of designers, wearing an outfit by Cuban-American Isabel Toledo for her husband's inauguration ceremony and a dress by the Taiwanese-born Jason Wu on the cover of Vogue.
Until now, the biggest controversy over Mrs Obama's appearance was her decision to appear sleeveless in her first official portrait as First Lady, which some critics claiming the bare arms look was too informal for the occasion.

வேட்டைக்காரன் படம் சரியில்லை என்பது தெரிந்த விசயம். சன் டிவியின் விளம்பரத்தால் அது கொஞ்சம் மறைந்து போனது. விளம்பரத்தால் ஓரளவு கலெக்ஷன் ஆகிக்கொண்டிருந்தது.
இந்த நேரத்தில் சன் பிக்சர்ஸ், படத்தை ஓட வைப்பதற்கு ஏவி.எம். பாணியை கையாண்டதுதான் சொந்த செலவில் சூனியம் வைத்துக்கொண்ட கதையாகிவிட்டது.
வேட்டைக்காரன் படத்தை தயாரித்தது ஏவி.எம்.தான். பொதுவாக ஏவி.எம். தயாரித்த படங்கள் ஓடுவதற்கு அந்நிறுவனம் பல பரிசு போட்டிகளை அறிவிப்பது வழக்கம். இந்த போட்டிகளில் முக்கிய நட்சத்திரமாக பெரும்பாலும் பங்கேற்று பரிசு அளித்தது நடிகை மனோரமா.
இப்படி பரிசு போட்டி அறிவிப்புகள் மக்கள் மத்தியில் ‘’ஆஹா அப்ப படம் ஓடலையா’’ என்ற கமெண்ட்டை கிளம்பும். வேட்டைக்காரனிலும் அதுதான் நடந்திருக்கிறது.
வேட்டைக்காரன் படத்திலிருந்து கேட்கப்படும் கேள்விகளுக்கு பதில் அளிப்போருக்கு 25 ஆயிரம் பரிசு என்ற விளம்பரம் வந்ததுமே வேட்டைக்காரன் படம் பார்க்காதவர்களும், அப்படம் பற்றி கேள்விப்படாதவர்களும், ‘’ஏன் வேட்டைக்காரன் படம் நல்லாயில்லையா? படம் ஓடலையா? இப்படி போட்டியெல்லாம் வைக்கிறாங்களே?’’என்ற கேள்வியை எழுப்பிவிட்டார்கள்.

இலங்கை அழைப்பு அஜீத் விஜய் புறக்கணிப்பு
இலங்கை தலைநகர் கொழும்பில் வருகிற ஜூன் மாதம் 3ம்தேதி முதல் 5ம்தேதி வரை ஐ.ஐ.எப்.ஏ. எனப்படும் சர்வதேச இந்திய திரைப்பட விருது வழங்கும் விழா நடக்கிறது.
இதில் சிறப்பு விருந்தினர்களாக பாலிவுட் நடிகர் அமிதாப் பச்சன் அவரது மகன் அபிஷேக் பச்சன், மருமகள் ஐஸ்வர்யா ராய் உள்ளிட்டோர் கலந்து கொள்கிறார்கள்.
இந்த விழாவில் பங்கேற்க வருமாறு தமிழின் முன்னணி நாயகர்களுக்கு இலங்கை அரசு சார்பிலும், அமிதாப் பச்சன் சார்பிலும் அழைப்பிதழ் அனுப்பப்பட்டிருக்கிறாம்.
இலங்கையில் நடக்கும் விழா என்பதால் அழைப்பிதழை பார்த்து முன்னணி நாயகர்கள் பலரும் மிரண்டு போய் இருக்கிறார்களாம்.
அதுபற்றி கருத்து சொல்லக் கூட ஒருவரும் முன்வரவில்லை. கமல்ஹாசன், அஜித், விஜய் என முன்னணி நாயகர்கள் அழைப்பிதழுக்கு எந்த ரியாக்ஷனும் காட்டாமல் புறக்கணித்து விட்டதால், இலங்கையும், தமிழ் சினிமாவும் எந்த அளவு பிரிக்க முடியாதது என்பதை உணர்த்த விழாக்குழுவினர், இரண்டாம் கட்ட நடிகர்களுக்கு வலைவீசி வருவதாக தகவல்கள் வெளியாகி உள்ளன.
மணிரத்னம் தயாரிப்பில் உருவாகியிருக்கும் ராவணா படத்தை இலங்கை திரைப்பட விழாவில் திரையிட திட்டமிட்டிருக்கும் விழாக்குழுவினர், மணிரத்னத்துக்கும் அழைப்பு விடுத்துள்ளனர்.
இலங்கை விழாவில் கலந்து கொண்டால், தன் மீது பெரும் மதிப்பு வைத்திருக்கும் தமிழ் ரசிகர்களின் கோபத்தை சம்பாதிக்க வேண்டியிருக்குமே என்ற குழப்பத்தில் இருக்கிறாராம் மணிரத்னம்.
Surya up coming flim
After a vigorous hunt for actresses, A. R. Murugadoss has finally zeroed on Kamal Haasan’s elder daughter Shruti Haasan for his upcoming film. The film is produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin of Red Giant Movies and has Surya playing the lead role.
Though according to grapevine, earlier Murugadoss was keen on roping Asin as the female lead but finally took the decision to cast Shruti with Surya. Since, producers are planning to make the film simultaneously in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil; they would rather prefer Shruti who is popular in Bollywood.
Shruti Haasan made her debut in Hindi film industry with ‘Luck’ and shared screen space with Aamir Khan’s nephew Imran Khan. A.R. Murugadoss has already raked in critical appreciation as well as box-office moolah with ‘Ghajini’ and Surya is making headlines in tabloids after Ram Gopal Varma signed him for crime-thriller ‘Rakta Charitra’.

Open Talk :
How does it feel when people begin to draw inspiration from you? Is it scary to be in such a position?
It feels great when people acknowledge my efforts and appreciate me for my hard work. But I don’t get scared of the responsibilities that come along with the trust that people have in my abilities. Instead, I take it as a challenge. It helps me give my best and live up to other people’s expectations. As the judge of Sony’s Indian Idol 5, my efforts would be to get the most deserving candidate win the title.
You are a thorough professional, that’s what the people you’ve worked with have to say about you. Does it come naturally?
I have worked hard to become a professional. I’m quite a funny person, let’s say different at home. But I’m also aware of the fact that such an attitude doesn’t work in the professional realm. I like being professional when it comes to work because it helps me perform better. It helps me concentrate more. I’m a kind of person who treats my personal and work life separately. That’s what keeps me going.
And you are addicted to your work?
You can call it an addiction. I’m totally passionate about my work. For, playback singing is what I simply love. I’m fortunate that God has given me the talent and all I have to do is sing.
At home, Sundhi is...
Like any other girl. I watch movies, meet my friends, plan outings with my family, make fun of other people and love to gossip. I want to learn cooking. Just that I don’t get to spend much time with my mom. But I know once I learn those culinary skills I will be a great cook. I’m also dying to start reading a book. The sad part is I don’t read at all. But I have heard so much positive about reading that I can’t wait any longer. I was inLondon a few months ago and I bought a lot of books. My first pick was Michael Jackson’s autobiography. He is my God. I read the first two chapters and had tears in my eyes.
Any memory of your stay inDelhi ?
My school was in new Rajinder Nagar and we used to stay in Azad Market, we had a huge house – three bedrooms, a hall and a huge verandah. Yes, it was beautiful. I so enjoyed those scooter rides with my father.
Do you think you are a destiny’s child?
Destiny plays a decent role but ultimately, it all boils down to the talent one has. You might get an opportunity in life – just as I got – because of your destiny. But to say that everything depends only on destiny is a mistaken belief. A lot depends on one’s approach and the hard work one is willing to put in. But I firmly believe it is your talent that takes you ahead in life.
Do you ever feel you are underpaid?
Oh yeah, we are underpaid all the time. It is unfortunate that inIndia it is all about cricket and the film industry. There is nothing like music industry here. I mean, it exists but on a very small level and we all know about it. But it is getting better now. Stars have begun to respect singers. We are seen in the same league as the big stars. This wasn’t the case earlier because the producers and directors’ perception about the singers was, ‘Haan ek singer hai unse gawan lo.’
How did you react when Aamir Khan said lyricist don’t have a major role to play in making the song successful?
I respect Aamir Khan for he is one of the best talents we have ever had inIndia . Unka yeh point of view ho sakta hai. I’m not challenging that. However, as a singer mujhe yeh baat thodi samajh nahi aai. We have had songs which despite being picturised on not so popular actors have been a hit with the masses. Doosri baat yeh hai ki pehle gaana banta hai. Yeh baat alag hai ki log ab pehle gaana hi dekhte hain kyunki publicity hi aise hoti hai. But people hum the tune. It is all about team work. As a singer I can’t say it is just the composer’s song. I can’t work without composer who further can’t work without the lyricist. We all, including the actors, have to work hard to make songs successful. I don’t know Aamir personally. He is free to have his point of view. From what I have heard, it is maybe not so right.
Is there anything you regret in life?
I would be lying if I say I’m happy all the time. That’s fake. I agree there have been times when I felt, ‘Why the hell did this happen?’ But that doesn’t mean I regret anything that happened. I’m glad that a particular incident happened because it helped me emerge as a stronger person and allowed me to see things differently. I have got to know a lot about people I thought were close and not so close to me. It is that clarity of thought I treasure. I believe everything happens for good. Now I know only good things will happen.
Actors are used to linkups. Do you think it is somewhat safe for the singers?
Yes. But I have had my share of link ups. All those stories only make me laugh. I have enjoyed reading them and I’m absolutely ok now. Let people have their share of fun. It was quite funny and shocking to hear that I was linked up with Anu Malik once. I wanted to meet the person who thought of it.
What if you are linked with Anu again?
I’m all prepared for that.

Courtney Love Alleges Affair with Kate Moss
Hot on the heels of claiming she bedded Gavin Rossdale while he was already involved with Gwen Stefani, Courtney Love is now naming a new victim, er, lover. The singer recently told Irish mag Hot Press that she also had an affair with Kate Moss in Milan in the 90s, adding, "I hope she doesn't get mad that I outed her about it... I feel like such a kiss and tell..." Well, Court, Howard Stern appearances and TMI interviews with random UK pubs while trying to promote your latest album will do that to a person. Rossdale, for one, has already copped to the fling, and according to Love, Moss hasn't exactly kept mum on the Sapphic shenanigans, though she's yet to acknowledge it publicly. For the record, the singer insists "Kate wasn't doing a lot of drugs" at the time. Wish we could say the same about Love in those days.
Swami Nithyananda sex fun
CHENNAI, TAMIL NADU - At least nine people have been taken into custody by police authorities for creating a rampage in the ashram of Swami Nithyananda after the spiritual leader was featured by a television channel getting involved in a sexually explicit video. The sleazy act involving the spiritual leader along with an actress came to the limelight after a Tamil television channel aired the video footage with the Nakkeeran weekly following up with images of the godman in compromising position with two women.
After controversial clippings were made public, irate supporters of the Swami Nithyananda created a ruckus in his ashram in Bangalore and in many other towns his supporters burnt his effigies to showcase their protest. As the protests gained huge momentum, police authorities had to deploy forces near Swami Nithyananda’s ashrams in order to avoid any untoward incident. Meanwhile, since the controversial video footage has surfaced, the whereabouts of the spiritual leader remains unknown. Meanwhile, in the wake of the public outcry resulting from the controversial clippings, it is being reported that the Tamil Nadu police has slammed charges of cheating against the godman, who is said to have large number of devotes in Southern India .
