Will & Grace star Debra Messing was bound to ruffle some executive feathers at NBC this week when she said she regretted doing a segment on Megyn Kelly Today. Kelly offended Messing by making an awkward comment to a gay guest, and Messing spoke up about it on social media. The problem is that both Kelly's and Messing's shows are on NBC, and it's not a good idea for one network employee to be bashing another's work. Kelly is just getting started with her gig on Today, and the revival of Will & Grace debuts tonight, testing whether there really is audience hunger for a resurrection of the nearly-20-year-old sitcom.

Last weekend, we quietly showed our final cut at our first Preview Screening during the Arizona Underground Film Festival to some nice critical response. Please stay tuned about our future premieres and upcoming La screening – follow our Facebook and Twitter pages for more info.

To celebrate their 5th anniversary, the Arizona Underground Film Festival has expanded to a whopping nine nights on Sept. 21-29 for a cinematic event the likes of Tucson has never seen before!

The shenanigans kick off with the opening night film The Legend of Kaspar Hauser, an experimental Italian feature directed by Davide Manuli and starring Vincent Gallo as the hero and the villain to a strange young boy, then end with the closing night film Jason M. Solomon’s nostalgic documentary 7 Years Underground: A 60′s Tale, which profiles the legendary Cafe Au Go Go in NYC that hosted such up-and-coming acts such as Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, George Carlin, Lily Tomlin and more.

In between those two films lies a twisted carnage of movie mayhem, including Spencer Parsons’ demented homage to ’70s mystery cartoons Saturday Morning Massacre; Michael Melamedoff exploitative semi-doc The Exhibitionists; Stephen Amis’ Australian WWII sci-fi...
