Allie is Wired had the pleasure of joining New York's most fashionable and charitable at last night's eBay Celebrity auction in support of Brad Pitt 's Make It Right . A gorgeous gallery space in Chelsea Market was stocked to the brim with celebrity wares for this exclusive preview of the auction. Some of the hottest items included the infamous scorpion jacket worn by Ryan Gosling in Drive , Versace and Miu Miu [...]

Drive, starring Ryan Gosling, was an intense movie with a great 80's inspired soundtrack. Here are the first three tracks off the movie's album, including A Real Human Being and A Real Hero by College. Nightcall by Kavinsky & Lovefoxxx on Grooveshark Under Your Spell by Desire [...]

In my humble opinion, 2011 was pretty poor year for cinema. Don't get me wrong, I saw a lot of enjoyable films this past year, from The Muppets to the final Harry Potter film, to the Amblin homage Super 8. But that is just what they were, enjoyable. I di2dn't leave the theater disappointed very often this past year. But I rarely, if ever, left the theater feeling exhilarated or did I walk out diving into an evening long conversation about the film I just saw. I had a lot of fun at the movies in 2011, but I wasn't ever "wow"-ed, [...]

After making nary a peep all Oscar season, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (whose title I still can't seem to get right) snags a Best Picture Oscar nomination. Young Adult and its star, Charlize Theron, are left out in the cold. And no Bridesmaids or The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in a Best Picture category with nine (?) nominees. Those aren't the only unexpected developments that have me scratching my head after the January 24 announcement of the 2012 Oscar nominees (for 2011 films)! [...]

The other day, a film-critic friend and I had dissenting opinions -- several of them -- and our healthy debates, naturally, turned to the subject of George Clooney, one of my favorite actors. The other guy's take on the soon-to-be-quadruple Oscar nominee for acting (and likely two-time winner come February 26) was one I've heard countless times: "Doesn't George Clooney always play himself?" Wait, that guy he was playing in Syriana was George Clooney? I do not think so, and if he was, then he gained 30 pounds and f**ked up his back on [...]
Are you bored? Do you ever think "Man, I love activities, but I need inspiration! I don't know what to do! I want to do STUFF!"? Do you ever think "Wow, that action adventure movie was 2 hours of my life I will never get back. I like rom coms. ...

Several hours ago, my brother Alexi sent me a link to a Gawker article titled "The Secrets Gay Men Don't Want Straight People to Know." Even if the guy in the photo that accompanied the link hadn't been so adorable, how could I resist a hook like that? It was an interesting read. Not because it was particularly insightful, or even completely accurate, but because as I read it, I couldn't figure out whether the title was supposed to be ironic. Take this "secret": "Not All Gay Couples Are Monogamous." Um, duh! Don't the [...]

El track " No Light No Light " original de Florence and the Machine, pasó por las manos de la banda originaria del Reino Unido, Spector , quienes se encargaron de añadir capas y pinceladas electrónicas y procesaron la voz de Florence, logrando que el track (que de por sí era muy intenso) sea un completo ataque directo a los sentidos. Pero, ¿qué tiene que ver todo esto con Ryan Gosling ? Sencillo, la entrada del remix tiene algunas insinuaciones del score original de la película Drive , en la que Ryan aparece como el personaje principal. [...]
Video: Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Ryan Gosling, and some other dude (sorry!) kill Jodeci on "The Mickey Mouse Club". All your memes begin right here. You're welcome. Hey girl. Hat tip to @mkbkrthebkmkr for sending this to us.

"But he's been pretty much yellow And I've been kinda blue But all I can see is Red, red, red, red, red now What am I gonna do?" -- "Red Red Red," Fiona Apple The color red. My God, there was so much of it in Drive ! I've really got to learn how to stomach red red red, particularly when it's gushing forth from human bodies on movie and TV screens. For weeks, reviews that promised there'd be lots of that in [...]
A couple of years ago, Mike Patton provided the brilliant score for Crank 2: High Voltage, a film which, as you all know, went on to win 57 Oscars and break every box office record there is. Now he's announced a new gig as a composer, for the film The Place Beyond the Pines, which [...]

If tickets are sold out on Friday, fear not: The film will play at the ArcLight through January 12th, [...]

You must have heard that Give Up The Ghost né American Nightmare reformed for two shows in the USA late in 2011, right? Maybe not. . It was a very exciting announcement, by all accounts. AN/GUTG are one of the seminal hardcore bands of the past decade and if you've never heard about them, here's Tom Doyle telling you why and how you should and could . Luckily, our man on the ground on the Eastern Seaboard, or whatever those Yanks call the Greater New York area (maybe that?) was there. Yeah, [...]

Tabloid It is great to see documentaries receiving wider acceptance amongst mainstream audiences. Still, many are reluctant to consider documentaries as a legitimate source of entertainment. However, if there was ever a film that manages to disprove this short sighted view, it is Errol Morris' Tabloid . Joyce McKinney is a former beauty queen who is accused of kidnapping and raping her Mormon boyfriend Kirk Anderson. McKinney is a woman who condemns the vicious media spotlight, but seems to secretly crave it. Her life story is so outlandish that not even [...]

Where the hell is Garbage? It's been nearly seven years since Bleed Like Me , and music could certainly use an injection of Shirley Manson's bad-ass glamor and hard-core attitude right about now. Now that the Black Eyed Peas are on hiatus, can we finally expect Fergie's follow-up to The Dutchess , her 2006 solo debut? Katy Perry could certainly use the Hot 100 competition right about now. Why Michelle Williams and not Kirsten Dunst? Both costarred in well-received films with Ryan Gosling last year. Williams scored [...]
