For people who don't like that the Oscars are voted on almost exclusively by old, white men, there's the Independent Spirit Awards, the awards show voted on almost exclusively by less old while men wearing Buddy Holly glasses.

Hot off his <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2012/02/brett-ratner-to-direct-commercials-for-glaad-but-will-he-rehearse-them" target="_blank">GLAAD-sponsored</a>, I-didn't-really-mean-to-say-<a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/brett-ratner-rehearsing-is-for-fgs" target="_blank">rehearsal-was-for-fags</a> apology tour, Brett Ratner is in talks to direct Dwayne and his The Rock-like Johnson in an adaptation of a graphic novel about Hercules for MGM.

It’s Tuesday and you know what that means - we’ve got a bunch of new old movies from which to choose for our home viewing pleasure.

Brett Ratner said a lot of things in the lead up to Tower Heist, like that he didn't know Olivia Munn was Asian, that he "banged her a few times and forgot her," and most importantly, that he never <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/olivia-munn-says-brett-ratner-masturbated-to-her-while-eating-shrimp" target="_blank">beat off in front of her while eating shrimp</a>.

Last year, when I asked Vince if I could rank the year’s worst movies, it seemed like a harmless enough idea.

Following Brett Ratner's resignation in the wake of his insensitive comments toward shrimp, gays, rehearsal, Olivia Munn, and Asians, the Academy has named as his replacement Brian Grazer, probably best known as Ron Howard's producing partner, and for constantly looking as sweaty and coked out as Brett Ratner probably actually is.

Fresh on the heels of Brett Ratner <a href="http://www.uproxx.com/tv/2011/11/tubby-douchebag-out-as-oscars-producer">stepping down</a> from producing the Oscars due to Fag-gate, Eddie Murphy has quit as the award show's host.

Yesterday afternoon, Brett Ratner stepped down as Oscars host in the wake of all the terrible things he said about <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/brett-ratner-rehearsing-is-for-fgs" target="_blank">rehearsal</a>, <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/olivia-munn-says-brett-ratner-masturbated-to-her-while-eating-shrimp" target="_blank">Asians</a>, <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/brett-ratner-apologizes-for-being-a-meatheaded-goon" target="_blank">Lindsay Lohan</a>, and <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/olivia-munn-says-brett-ratner-masturbated-to-her-while-eating-shrimp" target="_blank">shrimp</a> (but mostly because he used the F-A-G word).

If you've been following the Brett Ratner skeeve-fest at <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/" target="_blank">FilmDrunk</a>, it should come as no surprise that the Tower Heist director has resigned as the producer of this February's Oscars telecast.

It seems like it was only hours ago that we were sharing Brett Ratner's public apology for saying "<a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/brett-ratner-rehearsing-is-for-fgs" target="_blank">rehearsal is for f*gs,</a>" along with Academy President <a href="http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2011/11/brett-ratner-apologizes-for-being-a-meatheaded-goon" target="_blank">Tom Sherak's public acceptance</a> of that apology, but apparently that wasn't enough.

I hope you all saved up money for tickets and commemorative t-shirts, because the Brett Ratner Kinda Sorta Apology Tour is in full swing.

This is my FunFunFun Fest print from the weekend, autographed right in the middle by Donald Glover.

For all the crappy movies he makes, I could kiss Brett Ratner on his fat, nacho-cheese-and-vodka stained face for all the amazing content he provides this blog.

To be honest, I really had no intention of seeing Tower Heist this weekend after reading <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/30/movies/brett-ratner-directs-tower-heist.html?_r=2&pagewanted=1&ref=movies">the profile of Brett Ratner in the New York Times</a> last weekend.

Folks, we're about to go deep down a douche rabbit hole here, so fair warning.

Brett Ratner has done something ingenious in Tower Heist.
