Don't miss Oscar-worthy performances by Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks in two of this week's must-see flicks ...

Pixar is usually the studio to go to for great animated flicks.

But 'Monster House' challenges that theory with a clever and hilarious story that the whole family can enjoy. It also features a number of famous voices, so plan your guessing games accordingly.

Also airing this week are films with two Oscar-worthy performances: 'Forrest Gump' and 'Malcolm X.' Hanks won a 2nd Oscar for the sentimental charmer, while Washington inexplicably lost in a close race against Al Pacino. After seeing the three-hour-plus epic, you'll feel our pain.

There probably comes a time in every controversy where the person involved should just...stop...talking.

Fired Grey's Anatomy star Isaiah Washington is now comparing himself to Malcolm X and Paul Robeson. He isn't happy about getting canned from the show after he apologized, went to "rehab" and did everything the network asked him to do, and now he wonders if it's because of who he is and not what he did.
