Filed under: Deals, Celebrities and Controversy, Box Office, Distribution His last movie didn't do so hot, but George Clooney's still making headlines. This time, he has spoken out about the recent split between the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. According to Variety, Clooney has decided to stay neutral where many prominent actors have taken sides, and he's urging others to take the same route. If Hollywood actors go on strike, it'll probably be SAG's fault, considering the eagerness of AFTRA to negotiate a deal with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers. AFTRA's biggest defender is Tom Hanks, while Jack Nicholson is heading up the other side. "Stories about Jack Nicholson vs. Tom Hanks only strengthen the negotiating power of the AMPTP," Clooney said in a statement. Like many actors, Clooney wants to take any measures he can to prevent a strike. As a member of SAG, the Directors Guild of America and the Writers Guild of America, he wears many hats. "I'm hoping that there might be a way out of this," he said. "To be sure, I'm not the brightest bulb out there. So maybe someone has a lot better idea." Then he got personal: "I just happen to believe so strongly in both unions... my father, my mother, aunt, uncle, even cousins were all members." Nobody's doubting his allegiance, but after souring his relationship with the WGA after Leatherheads came out, it's hard to say how the other unions will regard him in the coming months.

Cloverfield comes out Ton DVD this week. Are you gonna buy it? You better! If you want to be our friend, you better! Because as you know four out of the five Who Asked You? hosts loved it! Speaking of which, if you click the image at the left it'll take you directly to our store page for Cloverfield where you can quickly purchase it for a modest amount of money. Be sure to check out all the extras on the DVD. Apparently there's some hidden Easter Eggs too! Aside from the C-Field madness, Blockbuster has put in an offer to buy Circuit City! Our expert panel will discuss the varying possibilities resulting from this purchase. Blockbuster wants to basically become the Google of electronics? Plus, we go all Entertainment Tonight on your ass with Ashlee Simpson prego news. And it's been so long I can't remember the last strike in Hollywood can you? Oh wait.... nevermind. Demanding nearly the same as the WGA, the actor's that make up both SAG and AFTRA will head to the bargaining table in hopes of cutting a deal with studio executives. We've got details about this. And when we say details, we mean a Transformer joke that will certainly have Keith retaliating with one of Cloverfield. By the way, he's the ONE host who did not like it. Finally, Dennis and Jabari will have their review of '88 Minutes' starring Al Pacino. And Dennis will offer his thoughts on 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall'. Mike is on assignment this week, so it'll be just four of the Asked Crew.

THE RECORDING INDUSTRY lost a major ruling in Atlantic v. Brennan when a federal judge in Connecticut ruled that merely making music available to other users is not evidence of copyright infringement. The judge also found that no proof of infringement was supplied by the record companies that brought the suit. With two of three findings going to the defendant, the case was thrown out. GOOGLE suffered a 7% drop in ad clicks from December to January and a .3% drop year over year according to comScore. Clicks also declined 7% between November and December. Wall Street responded to the news by hammering down Google s stock by as much as 8% during trading on Tuesday. While the company has not verified comScore s findings it did officially report substantially slowed growth during the fourth quarter. The cause may be any number of factors, from a tightening economy to increased success in battling click fraud. CBS reported a 15% decline in Q4 revenue and flat ad revenue due to slowdowns in TV and radio. Les Moonves said that the company would cutback on pilot expenditures, calling them vastly overrated. He also tried to ease concerns about the slowing TV business by saying that Network TV will always be a must-buy for advertisers. (Maybe.) In other TV-slowdown news, DISH saw a 76% decline in subscriber gains during Q4. APPLE announced that iTunes has become the number two music retailer in the US, trailing only Wal-Mart in music sales during 2007. The store has 50 million customers and has sold 4 billion songs to date. The iTunes juggernaut continues. THE WGA ratified the new contract with the AMPTP with 93% of members voting to approve the deal. The contract is retroactive to February 13th and will be in effect until May 2, 2011. And the focus shifts to SAG. NBC UNIVERSAL will soon close the beta period for NBC Direct. The download service will officially launch sometime this quarter, though no specific date has been announced. NBC Direct will offer automatic copy-protected downloads of top NBC shows, including The Office and Conan O Brien. Let s hope they fulfill the promise of Mac support in a reasonable time frame. ESPN will offer substantial online coverage of its first Masters tournament. Live streaming of the event will be offered to the handful of people that can actually access ESPN360.com. For the rest of us, video exclusives will be posted on Masters.org and live look ins will be available on ESPN.com. There will be blogs, live audio updates, chats and pretty much anything else you an imagine. Except, of course, access to ESPN360.
