Greg Grunberg may not be a name that you can place, but you most likely know his face and his work. For years playing supporting characters -- including co-starring on his friend JJ Abrams' shows Felicity and Alias -- Grunberg finally got a starring role in the NBC series Heroes, playing Matt Parkman, the L.A. cop who could read minds.
In honour of the Oscars having taken place last week, we bring you film-themed Top Fives! We realize it might have been good to post this pre-Oscars so you could download all of the wonderful movie music we have picked to get yourselves ready for the ceremony, but as usual, we're a day late and a dollar short.

ShowbizMonkeys.com is in Los Angeles this weekend covering the Oscars.

Sugar Sammy likes to push the PC envelope in his stand-up set, but not in the ways you might think. When most people in North America see a comedian of colour, stereotypes come to mind, and there are automatically assumptions made about their brand of comedy.
After taking a year off last year for a variety of reasons, we're back with our annual Top 10 list of favourite movies compiled from our entire staff. We pride ourselves in the fact that not only do our movie critics take part in our year-end favourites poll, but all our employees.
The name Jessica Lucas may not be familiar to movie audiences yet, but rest assured with the imminent launch of Cloverfield (aka 01-18-08, aka that cool looking movie which had a trailer on Transformers), she's about to burst out huge.
During the holiday season, we know there's one thing none of us can get enough of, and that thing is Christmas music. Since you're stuck listening to it as you stroll through malls from Halloween right through the Boxing Day Super Sales, you may as well be listening to the good stuff when you get home and start wrapping presents.
