James Franco is done with the Oscars.
But the Oscars may not be done with him.
You've heard of the Curse of Oscar host, yes?

So much for the long, hot summer…
The respective relationships of Jesse James, Kristin Cavallari and Hugh Hefner have all cooled; each's planned trip down the aisle iced.
Should a red-flag warning be issued to other celebrity couples? Are these the danger months for grooms- and brides-to-be?
Did Amy Winehouse Suffer the Curse of the 27 Club?

Jim Morrison died at 27, like Janis Joplin died at 27, like Jimi Hendrix died at 27, like Kurt Cobain died at 27.
Like Amy Winehouse died at 27.
Are rock and pop gods cursed to die at that specific age?
Was Kate Middleton Behind News of the World Shutdown?

It's no mystery who killed the News of the World. Owner Rupert Murdoch pulled the trigger, announcing that Sunday's issue, shockingly, will be his 168-year-old newspaper's last.
As for who wanted the News of the World dead—that's more complicated.
Kate Middleton. Hugh Grant. Sienna Miller. Even that guy from Hamlet 2. They had the motive, if not the wherewithal to orchestrate the paper's demise.
So, did they?
Do Superman and Batman Not Want You to Know If Green Lantern Is God-Awful?
Warner Bros. Entertainment
How far would a movie studio go to distract you from a confounding trailer? From a bad review?
Or, in the case of Green Lantern, from 63 (and counting) bad reviews?
UPDATE!

When Katie Couric inked an afternoon talk-show deal with ABC, General Hospital's iffy future got iffier.
And the ailing daytime-drama industry got closer to death.
In April, after the cancellations of All My Children and One Life to Life, we sought to assign blame for the soap's demise. As we revisit the piece, please do go ahead and mentally add Couric's name to the list:
Dark Knight Rises Viral Videos: What Do They Mean? (And Are They Even Real?)
Has the Dark Knight Rises' viral campaign risen on YouTube?
Warners Bros. isn't saying (and isn't denying).
Let's take a look at the channel that's got Christopher Nolan watchers buzzing—and Conspiracy Corner scouring police codes in Bane, er, sorry, in vain:
UPDATE!
Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Trailer: "Leaked" or Leaked?
NATIONAL PHOTO GROUP
UPDATE: Sorry, conspiracy theorists, Sony says, no, the studio did not post the trailer on YouTube.
__________
Is it an unauthorized leak, or is it a publicity-seeking plant?
Suspicious sorts think they know who's behind the pirated-looking Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trailer on YouTube—and they don't think it's Dutch pirates.
May 21 Apocalypse Alert! Five Things to Know About Judgment Day (All Three or So of Them)
Sony Pictures
You're listening to "It's the End of the World As We Know It." You're watching 2012. You're, well, confused.
Why are you celebrating doomsday this week? Aren't you supposed to be firing up the R.E.M. next year?

Justin Lubin/NBC
It wasn't you, Wonder Woman. It was NBC.
