What a weirdly disturbing situation!

On Tuesday a horribly misguided Hollywood dude dressed up like Tony Montana — the murderous drug kingpin Al Pacino played in Scarface — and got into a frightening real-life skirmish with El Lay PD!

The unidentified man not only dressed like the psychotic character, but he wielded a REAL knife, and shouted out Tony's dialogue at the police!!

We are told he waved around a copy of the DVD, too!!

What the hell!?

After a 6-hour standoff, in which the suspect yelled "f**king cops!" over & over again, the po-po finally

In Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania the world's most famous groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, climbed to Gobbler's Knob, ready to predict how far away spring was.

More than 18,000 people arrived to see Phil's prediction.

The Inner Circle is a small group of men who work closely with Phil and they're the ones who pass on his prediction.

The Inner Circle's vice president said:

"Phil's prediction is predicated on what Phil tells our president. Using a chirp and a click and a wink of an eye."

Sounds very magical.

So… what did Phil predict this year?

He saw his shadow! Oh no! Six more weeks of winter!

The entire crowd erupted into boos.

But never fear, even though Phil has been making predictions since 1887 (he looks great for his age) his accuracy is only about 39%.

So let's hope he's wrong and spring is just around the corner!

Maybe this will spur some movement on that Goosebumps movie…

Children's horror book author R.L. Stine's new book It's the First Day of School…Forever! is heading to theaters!

The book has been optioned by Gotham Group, who are currently looking to attach a screenwriter before getting a studio involved.

Gotham Group CEO/founder Ellen Goldsmith-Vein has referred to the book as "a thoroughly reimagined Diary of a Wimpy Kid meets Groundhog Day." Intriguing.

The story revolves around 12-year-old Artie, whose first day at school is the worst day of his life, and he keeps re-living it….SO he must find a way to "change his nightmare."

For those of you who would be TOO scared to watch R.L. Stine's work on the big screen, the author's also got a TV series called The Haunting Hour, which is currently airing on The Hub Network.

Will U go see R.L. Stine's Groundhog Day-like movie when/if it hits theaters?

How are you finding the time to do this with all the new music you’re releasing? We’re a bit curious!

Kanye West has announced that he’s creating a video called Runaway, which is a “40-minute noir piece based on his new album."

Here’s what Kanye had to say about the video:

"I'm color-correcting this film I shot in Prague a couple weeks ago.”

More from Kanye on the video’s storyline:

"It's the story of a phoenix fallen to Earth, and I make her my girlfriend, and people discriminate against her and eventually she has to burn herself alive and go back to her world. I've been feeling the idea of the phoenix. It's been in my heart for a while. It's maybe parallel to my career. I threw a Molotov cocktail on my career last year, in a way, and I had to come back as a better person."

When did U find the time to learn to color correct, Kanye? Have you found a way to repeat the same day over and over again, like in the movie Groundhog Day?

That would DEF explain how you’ve found all the time to color correct the film you shot in Prague, whilst creating new music.

Are U excited for Kanye’s 40 minute Runaway video?
