The Shaggy Dog
Tim Allen transforms from family dad to family dog and back again in this update of the Disney comedy. It all begins when workaholic Deputy D.A. Dave Douglas (Allen) takes on a case involving an animal laboratory, one that will take him away yet again from his wife (Kristin Davis) and kids (Zena Grey and Spencer Breslin), who already yearn for his distracted attention. But when Dave is accidentally infected with a top-secret, genetic mutation serum, everything he thought he knew about being himself and his family changes. Yet with his newly perked-up ears, and his front row seat on the household carpet, Dave is able to gain a whole new perspective into his family's secrets and dreams. Now, he wants nothing more than to stop fetching and return to fathering, only first he'll have to stop the evil forces behind the serum. A delightful update to a family classic.

The Buzz..

The official Lollapalooza lineup won't be revealed until March 16th, but Red Hot Chili Peppers have let the cat out of the bag by confirming at RedHotChiliPeppers.com that they will be a headline act.

Def Leppard and Journey will be teaming up for a U.S. tour this summer. No dates have been confirmed at this time.

While the band is playing three concerts in South Africa later this month and has a string of European festival appearances lined up for June, its schedule has been empty for the rest of the summer, leading to rumors of some sort of U.S. jaunt. However, the sources say that the band will enter the studio in July with producer Rick Rubin to begin recording its ninth studio album.

It's one thing to pose for Playboy voluntarily, but it's another to appear on the cover of the magazine without your consent. Just ask Jessica Alba, who's suing the publication for using a publicity picture of her from her film Into The Blue. Alba's legal team shot off a letter to the mag stating that the issue should not be distributed and that Playboy demonstrated "unethical behavior" in order to get the picture that was used on the cover.

Comedy Central would desperately love to have Dave Chappelle return to complete the third season of his eponymous show, but the comedian says that won't happen if the network airs episodes they've cobbled together from material he filmed before walking away from his US$50 million contract. Chappelle says airing the material in their possession would damage their business relationship, and he can't see how he would return after such a move.

Add another star to the wardrobe malfunction hall of fame. Along with Janet Jackson and Tara Reid you can now add Lindsay Lohan.
