SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 12 /PRNewswire/ — “Everybody is kung fu fighting” — again. A neo-funk/electronica cover of the disco era classic “Kung Fu Fighting” performed by Gnarls Barkley member CeeLo Green and actor/rocker Jack Black is the first single from the original motion picture soundtrack for Kung Fu Panda, an animated comedy starring the voice of Black. Interscope Records will release the soundtrack album — which also features the score by Oscar winner Hans Zimmer and John Powell — on June 3, preceding the film’s nationwide release from DreamWorks Animation on June 6.

The hip new remake of “Kung Fu Fighting,” with all new lyrics, was produced by The Underdogs, whose credits include Chris Brown, Marques Houston, and Beyonce. The original recording, written and performed by Carl Douglas, shot to #1 in both the U.K. and U.S. (1974). The soundtrack’s single will be available for sale May 27 on iTunes and everywhere digital songs are sold.

“A fan of the song first, it was inspiring and an honor to have the opportunity to reintroduce the record to a brand new audience sprinkled with a little of me on top,” says a smiling CeeLo.

CeeLo and Danger Mouse comprise the duo Gnarls Barkley, whose recently released The Odd Couple album follows 2006’s two-time Grammy-winning, #1 Pop and #1 R&B/Hip-hop St. Elsewhere.

Co-composers Zimmer and Powell provide the beautifully arranged original score music. Kung Fu Panda marks the first collaboration for Academy Award and Golden Globe winner Zimmer (The Lion King) and Powell (Shrek) since DreamWorks’ animated The Road To El Dorado in 2000.

“Using as our inspiration classic kung fu films, this score was an opportunity to write something truly epic again, which we don’t get a chance to do that often,” states Zimmer. “The music had to reflect the fabulous precision and magnificent action pieces depicted in the film, and we used a large-scale orchestra incorporating a good deal of percussion, Chinese drums and other ethnic instruments to create the various themes.”

Zimmer is one of the film industry’s most respected and sought-after composers, with a career encompassing well over 100 film and television scores. Zimmer won an Academy Award for his score for The Lion King, and has earned six additional Oscar nominations for his work on Gladiator, The Thin Red Line, Rain Man, As Good As It Gets, The Preacher’s Wife and The Prince Of Egypt. His more recent film credits include Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World’s End and The Simpsons Movie.

Powell is the recipient of two Ivor Novello Awards for “Best Original Film Score” from the British Academy of Composers and Songwriters for Shrek in 2001, and Ice Age: The Meltdown in 2006. He also scored Happy Feet, winner of the Academy Award for “Best Animated Feature Film of the Year” in 2006. Powell has also scored other animated films, including Chicken Run, Antz, Robots, and Horton Hears A Who, as well as the live action Bourne trilogy. Currently, he is scoring Hancock.

John Powell adds, “It was a great opportunity to have a play date with Hans again after all these years. We had missed the chance to collaborate and this was the perfect film to try out all the ideas we had been talking about.”

Cannes pits Hollywood against obscure arthouse
Sun May 11, 2008 6:02am EDT

By Mike Collett-White

LONDON (Reuters) - Hollywood legends and obscure arthouse directors descend on Cannes from Wednesday for the world’s biggest film festival that combines edgy cinema with A-list celebrities, glitzy parties and frenetic deal-making.

Clint Eastwood is in the main competition with “Changeling,” starring Angelina Jolie, pitting him against, among others, Kornel Mundruczo of Hungary in the kind of David-and-Goliath contest on which Cannes thrives.

Out of competition, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas will be on the famed red carpet in the palm-lined seafront town with the latest Indiana Jones adventure featuring Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett.

Woody Allen also presents “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” starring Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and Javier Bardem.

If you removed the senseless, obviously baiting posts by people who are not haters or trolls, but merely shiftless people with nothing better to do than poke a stick at overly emotional and defensive fans of certain celebs, and removed all the posts of people who can’t resist engaging in conversation with these losers, there would be less than a fourth of the numbers left of positive remarks and intelligent discourse. Anyone who feels that Brad and Angie EVER needed defending are crazy.

And you wonder why the regulars have left and/or formed their own message groups? We get all the pictures and news and can have discussions without the likes of Cliniqua and Famous and Sarah and the other idiots on here.

Lylian, The Real Lou, African Girl and others like them are the ones we miss. Appreciate their posts, and listen to them, and discuss with them — they are the true fans.

Good Morning all:
I see the Middle and Jr High Trolls are still posting. That is what happens when school is out for the Summer. It use to be a time kids would go to camp, part-time jobs or Summer school. Now they just sit behind a keyboard and hate on celebrities. I think Just Jared needs to post more ZacVacChace threads. Best wishes to AJ on a happy and healthy delivery. Papa Pitt is mighty fine and a devoted Dad and Partner. Troll(s) and Whiny lost a good thing. Sucks I know. Have a great day and make it a MIR day. Peace to all.

Hahaha — that abc.com story is such a plant by Maniston’s PR flack. Notice that they call John Mayer’s tongue kissing ball rolling kissing session with Perez, a ’strategic alliance.’ WTF?! So if Brad Pitt or Clooney was making out with Perez Hilton, it would be viewed as a ’strategic alliance?’

What clinches that it’s Huvane approved, is that the abc.com article doesn’t say D*CK about Perez and peeboy Mayer frenching and making out!! Ahahahahaha!

Wouldn’t that automatically make any other male ‘undesirable’ and the object of ridicule as it has for Mayer in the mere DAYS before his PR arranged ‘hook up,’ with Maniston?? Coincidence much? Er, NO! LOLOL

Notice they don’t mention ANY of that. Definite Huvane planted story on abc.com

OH, and don’t forget…abc.com was the author of the hit and smear job on Angelina just a few short months ago. In other words she’s pregnant with her second biological child and has adopted children from other countries with Brad Pitt, their father - so she must be unhinged. Remember they even got an expert to weigh in. It was nasty and just downright cruel.

Yet here you have a story on abc.com about a known plastic surgery addict, TV wannabe movie star (failed), who’s dating a latent homosexual ‘cad,’ as he was dubbed…and Maniston gets little to no criticism, and Mayer’s making out with a fat gay cuban gossip, is suddenly blacked out, and we’ve got a “strategic alliance.”

Huvane soooo has a plant at abc.com.

Brad Pitt et Angelina Jolie : ils ne se marieront pas sur le yacht de Paul Allen !
News publiée le lundi 12 mai à 10h37

Après avoir reçu Brad Pitt et Angelina Jolie dans sa somptueuse villa Maryland de Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, il apparaît fort peu probable que Paul Allen accueille leurs noces sur son yacht, comme le voulait pourtant une récente rumeur.

L’ancien patron de Microsoft a en effet envoyé son bijou se refaire une beauté : l’Octopussy, un yacht de 126 mètres de long d’une valeur de 130 millions d’euros - selon un savant calcul, cela représente approximativement 1 million d’euro le mètre… -, a été mis à l’eau il y a 5 ans, et vient de gagner les chantiers navals de Saint-Nazaire (en Loire-Atlantique) pour y subir un lifting.

Au programme : rénovation des 28 cabines, des treize suites et de la salle de cinéma. Un petit rafraîchissement à 10 millions d’euros.

Cela dit… il a encore 4 autres bateaux, mais moins somptueux !
