With an appalling six percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it garnered jeers far and wide from film critics. But that didn't stop Bill Clinton from watching -- and re-watching -- the zany R-rated comedy "Who's Your Caddy?" starring rappers Lil Wayne and Big Boi.

Former President Clinton watched the 2007 golf-themed movie on a plane to Thailand.

How do we know? The cast and director of "The Hangover" hung out with Clinton following a speech he gave in the Southeast Asia country when they were there filming "The Hangover Part II."

"We got to go to dinner with President Clinton," "Hangover" director Todd Phillips told The Hollywood Reporter. "We were like, 'Hey, why don't you come by the set?' So he came by. He loved [the first movie]. He loves comedies. At dinner, he goes to his assistant, 'What's that movie we watched over and over on the plane?' And the guy goes, 'The President loves "Who's Your Caddy."'"

The President is indeed a big fan of film. He considers the work of legendary

Vince Vaughn & Owen Wilson in 20th Century Fox's 'The Internship'

What could be more fun than getting an internship at Google? How about filming a movie with Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson about getting an internship at Google?

Late last year, Yahoo Movies (as well as a limited number of other outlets) got the chance to experience how fun it is to do just that as we visited the set of director Shawn Levy's "The Internship," -- Vaughn and Wilson's first movie together since2005's blockbuster comedy "Wedding Crashers."

Joaquin Phoenix has just won a plum role in Paul Thomas Anderson's next picture, beating out Iron Man himself for the part.

According to Anderson fan site Cigarettes and Red Vines, Joaquin Phoenix will be reuniting with filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson, who directed his Oscar-nominated performance in "The Master," for their next project, "Inherent Vice," an adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's novel in which Phoenix will play Doc Sportello, a private detective and dedicated marijuana enthusiast who tries to solve a kidnapping case in Southern California in the late 1960s.

One of the ways J.J. Abrams' reboot of "Star Trek" in 2009 differentiated itself from the previous TV and movie incarnations was its massive scale. Everything in the movie was bigger than we'd seen before: the action, the special effects, and even the interior of the Enterprise itself.

So how did they create the inside of an enormous spaceship? Why, with beer, of course.

To know writer/director Woody Allen's extensive body of work is to know that the man is as gifted a humorist as he is a hopeless romantic. Most of the time in Allen's world the guy should get the girl, and more often than not the guy is struggling with the neuroses of middle and/or old age and the girl is an innocent, lively young ingenue.

We suspect that Allen's recently announced next project should fit that bill. His untitled comedy has locked in A-list actors Colin Firth and Emma Stone to star in the film, which will be set in the south of France and begin production this summer.

It's "Mean Girls" meets "The Professional" (or "Leon," depending on where you live) as two teenage lady killers wreck havoc in "Violet & Daisy," the new thriller from writer-director Geoffrey Fletcher ("Precious").

Actually, there's a little bit of "Hanna" in there, too, as one of the guns-for-hire happens to be Saoirse Ronan, the star of director Joe Wright's tale of another underage assassin. And like "Hanna," "Violet & Daisy" takes some unexpected turns as its strange and violent tale unfolds.
