Shia LaBeouf: What I love about Carey Mulligan

(PEOPLE.com) -- Shia LaBeouf isn't usually shy about discussing his personal life. But when it comes to his Oscar-nominated girlfriend, Carey Mulligan, he's uncharacteristically tight-lipped.

"I never really had anything in my life that was off-limits. But with this, just out of respect, I just don't want to [expletive] around," the actor, 23, tells GQ in its April issue.

'Glee' spoiler alert: Major scoop on the seasons final episodes

(Entertainment Weekly) -- Entertainment Weekly intern Vlada Gelman is covering PaleyFest '10 for The Ausiello Files. Here's her report from last night's "Glee" panel.

You Say "Hello": The audience was treated to a screening of the April 13 episode, "Hello," which finds Sue back at work and back to terrorizing Will. She charges Brittany and Santana with seducing Finn, who's now sort of dating Rachel even though he isn't quite over Quinn. Meanwhile, Rachel catches the eye of Vocal Adrenaline's lead singer Jesse St. James, played by Lea Michele's former Spring Awakening costar Jonathan Groff. Will and Emma continue to be adorable as they try to start dating, but a couple of things stand in their way, including Vocal Adrenaline's coach (Idina Menzel) and an admission from Emma.

The separation happened "earlier this year," Keith Schilling said.


Tax incentives used to lure film crews

(CNN) -- "The Blind Side" could have been filmed anywhere, says Tim Bourne, an independent producer who worked on the film. But there's a reason producers brought the project to Georgia: money.

"There's nothing in [the movie] that couldn't have been shot in any midrange urban setting. The reason, and the sole reason, it was shot in Georgia was the tax incentives," he said.


'Alice in Wonderland' holds top spot at box office

(Entertainment Weekly) -- "Alice in Wonderland" proved this frame that it's no one-weekend phenomenon. The Tim Burton-Johnny Depp collaboration had audiences coming back for more. After holding extremely well throughout the week, the Disney film dropped a scant 47 percent its second weekend in theaters for an additional $62 million. It's 10-day total now adds up to $208 million--besting 2005's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" to become Burton's highest grossing film. A good 13 percent of its dollars came from its IMAX 3-D screens.

Alice's release far outshone any of the newcomers, with Matt Damon's "Green Zone" being the best performer of the bunch. Despite coming from Bourne director Paul Greengrass, this Iraq war drama didn't connect with audiences anywhere near as well as the duo's previous collaborations. The Universal film cost $100 million and only opened to $14.5 million, a gross below even the studio's modest expectations going into the weekend.
