The cast of "Jersey Shore" talked to "Extra" while filming the fourth season of their show in Italy, and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi revealed what really happened in the infamous car crash with the Italian police cruiser. "I tried to use the brakes and they didn't work," Snooki explained. "So to avoid the cops, I ran right into a wall so I didn't hurt anybody."

While the pint-sized guidette didn't seriously injure anyone, two police officers were taken to a hospital and treated for minor injuries. Meanwhile, Snooki ended up at the police station but was not arrested.

Snooki, who wore a neck brace following the fender-bender said, "I was doing a little joke, you'll see."

On/off couple Sammi Giancola and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro were happy to report they were "back together," with Sammi saying, "and moving forward each day in the right direction."

It was a joyous time for the three of us, full of excitement and laughter. We created lasting music together and experienced a life that we could never have imagined. Dan was an equal and integral part of that early history, and I have never forgotten the good times we spent making that music and learning about life together."

1873. Arizona Territory. A stranger (Craig) with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don't welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). It's a town that lives in fear.

But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known.

Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he's been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force. With the help of the elusive traveler Ella (Olivia Wilde), he pulls together a posse comprised of former opponents-townsfolk, Dolarhyde and his boys, outlaws and Apache warriors-all in danger of annihilation. United against a common enemy, they will prepare for an epic showdown for survival.

Cowboys & Aliens comes to theaters July 29th, 2011 and stars Daniel Craig, Abigail Spencer, Buck Taylor, Matthew Taylor, Cooper Taylor, Clancy Brown, Paul Dano, Chris Browning. The film is directed by Jon Favreau.

Fiore Films, an independent production company, today announced that Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father will begin principal photography on-location in New York on January 3, with pre-production starting in September.

Never before has there been such an inside look at the life of the Gotti family and their world of danger, betrayal and redemption.
