Schwarzenegger Admits He 'Did Inhale'
Despite his political aspirations, Arnold Schwarzenegger has told the director of the documentary that launched his career to not delete scenes that might damage his future career.
A new, digitally-enhanced version of George Butler's acclaimed 1977 documentary "Pumping Iron," with added features, is being released this week. The film followed a then mostly-unknown Austrian-born Schwarzenegger as he prepared to defend his Mr. Olympia title and featured the bodybuilder smoking a marijuana joint and telling the camera stories about his life that have since been proven untrue.

State GOP's future may rest in the hands of the 'Terminator'
He's been a genetically engineered twin and a pregnant man, a barbarian and a spy, a kindergarten cop and a clone. Now some Republicans are casting him as the next governor of the nation's most populous state.
Fresh from the success of his Proposition 49 in last week's election, Arnold Schwarzenegger has become California's most viable Republican candidate- even though he's not yet running for anything.

"Chamber of Secrets" Opening Magic
3rd best debut E V E R
Harry Potter was wizard this weekend, but he couldn't pull off quite as big a trick as last time.
As the new number one movie Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets earned an estimated $87.6 million.
A magic sum, but only the third best ever top mark, not as heavy duty as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone's $90.2 million last year and - despite those giant spiders - not close to the A+ best ever total of $114.8 million spun up by Spider-Man this summer.

Movie piracy 'like terrorism'
STAR Wars producer Rick McCallum told a Melbourne audience that the fight against P2P swapping of films was as important as the war on terrorism.
Big budget film-making faced a total collapse in three years if studios don't quickly address the threat posed by movie downloading on the internet, McCallum said.

Hollywood Studios Unveil Web Movie Site
Five top Hollywood studios opened online box office Movielink on Monday in their first, tentative step to sell blockbuster films like "Ocean's Eleven" on the Web after years of fretting over the copyright piracy now threatening the music business. The movies are downloaded onto a computer hard drive, where they reside for 30 days, without being played, before being deleted. Movielink users must have high-speed Web connections, otherwise the time to download is prohibitive, Ramo said.
