Few things are as scary as the thought of Jackass in 3D
Par and MTV Films are even further along with "Jackass 3," with filming scheduled to begin Jan. 25. The studio has carved out a spot on its 2010 slate for the latest "Jackass," which will star Johnny Knoxville. The low-brow franchise has been something of a cash cow for the studio with the first two films -- which together cost $16.5 million -- raking in a combined $164.1 million worldwide.Though Par confirmed the new "Jackass" will be shot in 3D, Dickhouse Prods. declined comment about the technology the film will employ. Insiders say Dickhouse's Jeff Tremaine, who will direct "Jackass 3," is conducting camera tests this week to ensure that the footage will look good.

John Frusciante: No Longer Red Hot
John Frusciante, who played guitar on the Red Hot Chili Peppers' biggest hits, is leaving the band after 16 years, according to a post on his website -- which, cutely, ended with a nice smilie icon."To put it simply, my musical interests have led me in a different direction," the guitarist wrote in his post. "I was very excited about exploring the musical possibilities inherent in a rock band, and doing so with those people in particular. A couple of years ago, I began to feel that same excitement again, but this time it was about making a different kind of music, alone, and being my own engineer."
"Over the last 12 years, I have changed, as a person and artist, to such a degree that to do further work along the lines I did with the band would be to go against my own nature," he continued. "There was no choice involved in this decision. I simply have to be what I am, and have to do what I must do."
Frusciante also revealed that he'd actually quit the band over a year ago, during a period of "indefinite hiatus" for the multi-platinum-selling rock group.

Get the munchies from... your munchie food.
A new restaurant on Broadway in downtown Denver claims it is the first of its kind... anywhere. Ganja Gourmet serves food items laced with marijuana. And not just brownies. This place has all kinds of different dishes made with pot sprinkled in.When voters legalized medical marijuana in Colorado in 2000, it's not certain if this is exactly what they had in mind.
Ganja Gourmet claims to be the first of it's kind, serving up more than just brownies. Dishes include lasagna, gourmet pizza, jambalaya, paella, even chocolate mousse and cheesecakes.
And it's legal.
"Do you have your medical marijuana card, that's the first thing we would ask," said Steve Horowitz of Ganja Gourmet.
That card gets you into Ganja Gourmet. You have to have it to belly up to the "bud" bar, as in marijuana bud. "We'd like them to come sit at the bar and give us their order, bring the food to them," Horowitz said.
