A dastardly pirate steals a hamburger recipe from the bottom of the sea and it's up to a sponge, a starfish and their pals to get it back.

So is it too early to start next year's Oscar race?

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, but "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water" — SpongeBob SquarePants' second big screen adventure, following 2004's "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie" — is inspired lunacy. Even those not acquainted with the denizens of Bikini Bottom will find plenty to chuckle at in the crazypants story, which incorporates time travel, dimensional portals and a dolphin with an English accent that oversees the galaxy.

The story, as it were, concerns the highly coveted recipe for Krabby Patties, the delicious burgers that our hero SpongeBob flips at the Krusty Krab. The evil Plankton, owner of rival restaurant the Chum Bucket, is out to nab the secret formula for himself, and a fight over its contents causes the underwater town of Bikini Bottom to erupt into chaos.

Martin Scorsese's "The Wolf of Wall Street" and Disney's animated fantasy hit "Frozen" were the two most pirated films of 2014, according to a firm tracking illegal downloads. 

Shirley Temple Black, who as a dimpled, precocious and determined little girl in the 1930s sang and tap-danced her way to a height of Hollywood stardom and worldwide fame that no other child has reached, died on Monday night at her home in Woodside, Calif. She was 85.

Her publicist, Cheryl Kagan, confirmed her death.

Ms. Black returned to the spotlight in the 1960s in the surprising new role of diplomat, but in the popular imagination she would always be America’s darling of the Depression years, when in 23 motion pictures her sparkling personality and sunny optimism lifted spirits and made her famous. From 1935 to 1939 she was the most popular movie star in America, with Clark Gable a distant second. She received more mail than Greta Garbo and was photographed more often than President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The little girl with 56 perfect blonde ringlets and an air of relentless determination was so precocious that the usually unflappable Adolphe Menjou, her co-star in her first big hit, “Little Miss Marker,” described her as “an Ethel Barrymore at 6” and said she was “making a stooge out of me.”

When she turned from a magical child into a teenager, audience interest slackened, and she retired from the screen at 22. But instead of retreating into nostalgia, she created a successful second career for herself.

He was a beefy 5-foot-10 but won an Oscar for playing the slight, 5-foot-3 Truman Capote. He had the booming voice of a deity but often played schlubs and conflicted characters.

He could be heartfelt and giving, as with his male nurse in "Magnolia" or rock critic in "Almost Famous," or creepily Machiavellian, such as the gamemaster in the latest "Hunger Games" movie.

Philip Seymour Hoffman was an actor who could be anybody.

"I don't know how he does it," director Mike Nichols told The New York Times Magazine in 2008. Nichols directed Hoffman on both stage ("The Seagull," "Death of a Salesman") and screen ("Charlie Wilson's War"). "Again and again, he can truly become someone I've not seen before but can still instantly recognize. ... He may look like Phil, but there's something different in his eyes. And that means he's reconstituted himself from within, willfully rearranging his molecules to become another human being."

"Philip Seymour Hoffman's precise, uncanny performance as Capote doesn't imitate the author so much as channel him, as a man whose peculiarities mask great intelligence and deep wounds," wrote Roger Ebert about 2005's "Capote."

Hoffman was found dead Sunday. Reports attribute his death to a drug overdose.

He left a 15 year old daughter, Meadow rain that he had from ex-girlfriend Rebecca Mcbrain.

Shut out all night at the Golden Globes, the historical drama "12 Years a Slave" eked out the night's top honor, best film drama, while the 1970s con-artist caper "American Hustle" landed a leading three awards, including best motion picture - comedy or musical.

David O. Russell's "American Hustle" and Steve McQueen's "12 Years a Slave"were tied for the most nominations, with seven apiece, heading into Sunday's ceremony. But it was "Hustle" that had the better night overall, winning acting awards for Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence.

Awards were otherwise spread around.

James Avery, the bulky character actor who laid down the law as the Honorable Philip Banks in "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," has died. 

Avery's publicist, Cynthia Snyder, told The Associated Press that Avery died Tuesday. She did not immediately know the cause of death or where he died. He was 65. 

This is just getting sad. While the family of Paul Walker have been visibly and understandably broken up over the loss of their loved one, Nosinfo.com has created a “hoax” report, claiming it was all a set up.

“Paul Walker didn’t die. Nor did Roger Rodas. They are both alive and well, and their relatives well know it,” the website reads under its headline “Paul Walker Girlfriend Busted On-Site Setting Up Fake Death.” Below, they have photos of people around a set-up fire at the same scene — whether or not it is the same day (or even the same location) is unknown as the photos are extremely blurry.

Paul Walker's car had been traveling at 100mph when it crashed and went up in flames.

The 40-year-old 'Fast And Furious' actor's friends lost control of the Porsche Carrera GT, which was traveling at 100mph in a 45mph zone, and hit a tree which resulted in their death, the Daily Star reported.

Paul Walker's death won't have an effect on the upcoming 'Fast and Furious 7' film, it has been revealed.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Universal brass had held a meeting Sunday morning to discuss the fate of the film and the team behind the action film is facing a delay in the production after the 40-year-old actor's untimely death.

Sources have said that the movie will not be abandoned entirely and the cast is supposed to resume shooting soon.

Walker, along with the rest of the cast and crew of Fast 7 were supposed to return to Atlanta on Sunday to continue filming the big-budget film, which features extensive car racing.

Paul Walker, the star of the "Fast & Furious" movie series, died on Saturday in a car crash that killed two people north of Los Angeles, his publicist said. He was 40.

Rowan Atkinson has again become a victim of celebrity death hoax.

According to the Travelers Today report, rumours started from a fake CNN source that the 58-year-old actor, who is well-known for his work on the sitcoms Mr. Bean, committed suicide after a producer removed him from the Johnny English 3 film project.

"English Actor Comedian Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson) died at 58 after committing suicide. The comedian committed suicide right after the producer remove him on Johnny English 3. Rowan Atkinson(Mr Bean) recorded a suicide video with a message to his producer and fans around the world," the CNN update read, according to Online Threat Alerts (OTA) report.

Such false reports about celebrities death have started spreading across Facebook through an app that uses logos from well-known news outlets, provoking users to click.

BEIJING: James Bond's new avtar seems to have won the world with record breaking success for 'Skyfall' but lost out to the Chinese censors, who have cut off a scene and twisted some lines in the film. Skyfall hit movie halls across China on Monday about three months after its release in the US. 

Madonna, who strips bare to promote her new perfume, looks several decades younger than her 54 years in the arresting ad to promote her Truth or Dare by Madonna Naked scent.

The Queen of Pop has spent much of the year flashing the flesh at her live shows, and she's gone the whole hog on this occasion.

Only this time, she's arguably had the years turned back by a generous helping of the airbrush.

Striking a seductive pose with her hands behind her head, Madonna's blushes are spared by the bust-concealment of her new perfume's logo, the Sun reported.

The singer has been heavily criticised for refusing to gracefully accept middle age, choosing instead to defy her years onstage by donning youthful attire like a cheerleader's outfit.

However, a recent shot of her in New York showed Madonna looking every bit her age.

She wore a cosy gorilla hat for her low-key visit but her au naturel face appeared wrinkled.

Actress Kristen Stewart doesn't enjoy being in the spotlight but has learned not to let it upset her or restrict her behavior.

Stewart says she won't give up her personal life for the sake of her public image.

"The spotlight is not something I get off on. You can't let it stunt you. Though, that's the thing. It's a huge change that I've definitely noticed within myself from the beginning to the end of this - that I'm more comfortable with walls being down," contactmusic.com quoted Stewart as saying.

"Because you can actually have human experiences and not deprive yourself of a normal life. You get too caught up in what other people think of you. You start to become a really disjointed persona and everyone's perception is their own," said the 22-year-old.

Stewart's top tip to survive becoming "exceedingly famous" is to just not overthink it and ignore other people's opinions.

"If you're considering other people's opinions about your life, that they really know nothing about, you are going to live a very disjointed, really unsatisfying, awful existence."
