• A biopic about the life of country music legend Hank Williams is being developed. Now how about a Hank Williams Jr. biopic that investigates which evening his "rowdy friends" will be coming over?
• Universal is developing the romantic comedy The Best Thing About Pam Rooney as a vehicle for Jonah Hill. There's just "something about" that title that makes you want to "forget Sarah Marshall" and confess your "love for Beth Cooper."
• The creators of Harold and Kumar have signed on to helm the comedy One Night Stan. Drop the last letter -- instant title pun!
• A full trailer for Terry Gilliam's The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus has surfaced.
