Now, in a new interview with "Uncut," Granduciel has opened up a bit more about the feud, telling Sun Kil Moon frontman Mark Kozelek to "get over" himself and suggesting that Kozelek was perhaps "playing this part" instead of being genuinely outraged.

  • Is Johnny Depp Getting Ready to Part With Longtime Agent After Four Film Flops?

    If you have not made a beeline to the theater to see Johnny Depp in "Mortdecai," do not worry: You have saved yourself some torture, as the film has been called the one of the actor's "worst flops ever". Obviously, not every film is going to be a hit, but Depp's major problem is that the last four of his have absolutely tanked. "Mortdecai" being the worst of the bunch seems to indicate that his choices have been getting worse instead of better. The actor is said to be so crushed by the critical panning of his recent performances that he is contemplating some major changes. According to a report by Page Six, Depp might be considering a change in management and might be looking to part with his longtime agent.

  • Marvin Gaye/Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams 'Blurred Lines' Lawsuit Hits Roadblock as Audio Recordings Disallowed

    Marvin Gaye's estate insists that "Blurred Lines," the top song of 2013 by Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams, is unmistakably similar to the soul singer's "Got To Give It Up," and indeed many who listen to the tracks will be able to hear the likeness. However, a judge has ruled that jurors in the case won't be able to listen to the two songs as part of their deliberations...which hardly seems fair but there is legal reasoning behind it.
