It was kind of inevitable that noted 9/11 truther Charlie Sheen would make a movie about that day, but it’s a little surprising that not only Gina Gershon, but Whoopi Goldberg would both agree to star in it. Not surprising: the trailer for Sheen’s 9/11 is shockingly, impressively bad.
It’s been a few years since Charlie Sheen has appeared in a feature film of any type, but to hear the actor say it, he’s already lined up his big comeback project. For a while now, Sheen has been talking up the possibility of a Major League sequel that brings back the cast and crew of the original film.

How about a 'Throwback Thursday' story. Where Justin Bieber was arrested earlier today, I thought I'd go back into yesteryear and go through quickly a few stars who were less than pure back in the day.
As details about Zac Efron's substance abuse problem slowly leaked, fingers began pointing in a rather unsurprising direction: Charlie Sheen. But he swears he's innocent.
'Machete Kills,' Robert Rodriguez's follow-up to 2010's 'Machete,' ditches the grindhouse aesthetic and homage, and instead tries to emulate a late-'80s, early-'90s action flick -- basically, Rodriguez made the kind of movie he often makes.
