Sarah Palin’s ‘Undefeated’ Coming to AMC Theaters

Sarah Palin‘s upcoming documentary entitled Undefeated is set for release in select AMC Theaters throughout the country on July 15th.

AMC Theatres will be the exclusive exhibitor for the pro-Sarah Palin documentary The Undefeated, which charts the ex-Alaska governor’s rise to national prominence, and has solidified a release date: July 15 in select cities (Dallas, Denver, Oklahoma City, Orlando, Atlanta, Orange County, Phoenix, Houston, Indianapolis, and Kansas City).

This is clearly a push for her political career as the anticipation builds with people wondering if she’ll be running for president in 2012. I get the feeling that there will be a huge turnout for people going to see this documentary, she goes far beyond being a political figure and continues to solidify her celebrity status. I still don’t get the title, does she not remember 2008?

Sarah Palin Movie Coming in June

Sarah Palin has a documentary coming out next month, propelling her towards a 2012 presidential nomination.

Sarah Palin will the subject of a feature film to be released next month, the conservative filmmaker behind it, Stephen K. Bannon, tells Real Clear Politics.

The site reveals that Palin asked her close aide Rebecca Mansour to reach out to Bannon about creating a series of videos last November — shortly after Republicans swept elections, and Palin was credited with helping. Palin hoped the videos would answer questions about her decision to step down as governor and protect her legacy — clearing the way for a potential 2012 presidential campaign.

Bannon, however, decided to take the project one step further. He’d create a feature film on Palin, and put up the $1 million in financing himself.

Not a documentary I care to watch personally, but I’m sure many of her loyal followers will be out there anxiously awaiting it’s release. It’s going to be an interesting next 18 months in the world, this is just a mini-preview. I’m way more excited about The Hobbit coming out in 2012 than the presidential election, the Olympics or even the end of the world for that matter.

Sarah Palin’s Son Track Marries High School Sweetheart Britta Hanson

Sarah Palin has a new addition to her family: a daughter-in-law.

Sarah and Todd Palin‘s oldest son, Track Palin married his high school sweetheart Britta Hanson in a small ceremony at Hatcher Pass, Alaska.

The families are planning a larger wedding celebration later when more family members can travel to the Alaskan ski resort Aleyaska and enjoy a long skiing weekend as well.

“Our families couldn’t be happier!” the families told People magazine in a statement. “These are two hard working, humble, active, studious young adults who grew up together. We’re tickled that after two decades of friendship we proudly witnessed their marriage, knowing their new life together will be blessed.”

Track is the first of the Palin children to be married, while sister Bristol Palin has been engaged twice. Track is an Army Reservist who spent a year in Iraq. He is a commercial fisherman who is planning to enroll at the University of Alaska.

Britta is a nursing student at the  University of Alaska.

The family photo of the wedding shows Britta’s parents, Rev. Duane and Elizabeth Hanson, the bride and groom, and Sarah and Todd Palin all casually dressed in jeans and button down shirts, jackets and windbreakers.

“The Hanson and Palin families are ecstatic and proud that Britta and Track married in one of our favorite spots in America, spectacular Hatcher Pass, Alaska,” says the statement. “It’s a site we’ve all shared fun memories of skiing, snowboarding, hiking and snowmachining.”

Congrats to the newlyweds.

Julianne Moore Is Sarah Palin For HBO’s ‘Game Change’

She certainly has the look down!

Julianne Moore has found her inner (well, outer really) Sarah Palin as she portrays the former Alaskan governor and Vice Presidential nominee for the Republican party in the 2008 election campaign drama Game Change for HBO.

The film begins shooting today and I’m looking forward to the next photos that surface of Ed Harris as Senator John McCain.

More casting news for the TV movie: Deadline reports Sarah Paulson, Peter MacNichol and Justin Gaston have signed on and THR says Larry Sullivan, Jamey Sheridan and Melissa Farman are all additions to this stellar cast.

Levi Johnston To Write Palin Family Tell-All

Sometimes you should just let a sleeping Mama Grizzly lie.

Levi Johnston is getting ready to stir up a whole hornets nest with his Sarah Palin & Family tell-all called Deer In The Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin’s Crosshairs and is due out in the fall.

Johnston, the former boyfriend of Bristol Palin, said he’s doing this so people can learn his side.

“I want to tell the truth about my relationship with the Palins . . . my sense of Sarah, and my perplexing fall from grace — how I feel and what I’ve learned.  I’m doing this for me, for my boy Tripp and for the country,” the soon-to-be 21 year-old said in a statement.

The book is being billed as a coming-of-age story.

“This is a sweet and funny book with a touch of irony; a fascinating tale of a misunderstood boy figuring out how to be a man and a father after being thrust into the spotlight and subsequent media circus at a very young and vulnerable age,” Stacy Creamer, Touchstone vice president and publisher, said in a statement. “Levi has seen the Palin family up close and personal and is ready to tell his story.”

This isn’t the only Palin centered tome headed to bookstores and Kindles. Bristol reportedly has one in the works, and Sarah’s former gubernatorial chief-of-staff Frank Bailey has Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin coming out this fall as well.

Another offering about Sarah is due in autumn from best selling author Joe McGinniss, adding more Palin fuel to the fire.

It’s shaping up to be a Very Palin Season.

Julianne Moore Takes On Sarah Palin For HBO

Julianne Moore will have to channel her inner Mama Grizzly as she takes on the role of Sarah Palin for HBO.

The network is producing Game Change, an original movie based on Senator John McCain’s run for the office of the President. The film chronicles McCain’s campaign from the time of his selection of then Alaska Governor Palin as his running mate, to their defeat in November.

Based on the novel by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, it will be directed by Jay Roach.

The book was a behind the scenes look at the campaign candidates and their behavior. Many prominent politicians were included in the not-so-nice account including then Senator Obama and wife Michelle, former President Bill Clinton and then Senator Hillary Clinton among many others.

No Second Season For ‘Sarah Palin’s Alaska’

No more “Mama Grizzly” for now…

Sarah Palin will not return to TLC for a second season of her TV show Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

EW is reporting that the former Governor of Alaska and one time Vice President nominee seems to have no plans to do another round of the show that has given her plenty of fans and critics.

Producer Mark Burnett and team are not headed up to film more episodes and if they did and Palin announced her candidacy, TLC would have to provide equal time for her rivals.

Is this the biggest sign yet that Palin has decided to run for President?

‘Sarah Palin’s Alaska’ Could Get A Second Season

TLC has a reality show gold mine in Sarah Palin’s Alaska. The exploits and escapades of the former Governor and one-time Vice Presidential running mate of Senator John McCain has audiences tuning into to see her and her family as they battle nature and each other week to week.

Palin’s pulling viewers in to her cable show (her hour long broadcast mostly ranges in viewers from 2.5 to 4 million and is often the highest rated cable show for the hour,) and she will most likely be offered a second season.

“Sarah knows to strike when the iron is hot and started talking about season two right after the show debuted to huge numbers,” said a friend of Palin. “She knows that celebrities get millions of dollar for each episode of their shows and thinks she’s worth it too. Jennifer Aniston took home millions from ‘Friends’ and in Sarah’s eyes, she’s no different.”

PopEater is reporting that Palin is pulling in $250,000 per episode and wants a considerable pay hike. Will she get it? Is she worth it?

Don’t forget if she announces her candidacy for President, she would not be able to continue in the show (now if she has all the episodes filmed already, airing them could be a rating coup for the cable channel.)

Palin is smart about building her brand on television and I can’t image TLC not picking up her show for season 2 for any reason. Can you?

Barbara Walters ’10 Most Fascinating’ Of 2010

Barbara Walters annual special The 10 Most Fascinating People aired Thursday night on ABC and overall, what a snooze fest but BWalt did her best to give us 10 personalities that we couldn’t stop talking about. So here is the list:

Betty White. Now Betty is all sorts of fabulous, but what’s more interesting is that in a culture so obsessed with youth (Bieber, Cyrus, The Twilight crew,) the octogenarian is still relevant. Is this a trend?

Mark Zuckerberg. Rehashed clips of the Facebook creator and inspiration for the movie The Social Network. I yawned twice while typing that. And this could have been something solid – he is quirky and challenging and even if he wouldn’t agree to a sit down, this segment was dull.

Justin Bieber. I have nothing against Bieber but this felt like Walters trying to get tweens and teens to watch the show. I am fascinated by the reaction his fans will have when he changes his hair. And I’m also very scared of it.

Jersey Shore Cast. I understand that I am in the minority here – but I really don’t get the fascination. Gym. Tan. Laundry. Barbara?

Sandra Bullock. Sympathetic absolutely. More than that – well,

See the rest of the list under. (Read the article)
