I hate this hack so much. If he like it, most of the time it means skip it.
S**t. Add an s to that "like" in your mind.
Patrick Goldstein of the L.A. Times has written about Ben Lyons and Ben Mankiewicz being fired from "At the Movies." Most of his criticism (not surprisingly) is about Ben Lyons.

'At the Movies' swats away its flyweight critics

If anyone is going to this awards show, please give us a full report how stupidly Ben Lyons acts. There will probably be some self-serving, heavily-edited coverage on E!, but we want the real story.
Correction: It's not an awards show, just the festival's opening-night celebration. It would still be great to get a report of what really happens, because Lyons is bound to say and do stupid things.
