Thank God We’re Not Jessica Simpson or Britney

jessica-simpson-britney-spears.jpg The holidays are a perfect time of year to sit back and reflect on what we’re most thankful for. Family, friends, warmth, PRESENTS…you know, all the good stuff life has brought us during the last 365 days.

Two things I am very thankful for this year? That I am not Jessica Simpson or Britney Spears.

At one time two of the hottest, most enviable babes out there, these days it’s hard for me to choose which one it would suck to be the most. To help me decide (and because I’m a little OCD), I’m complied a list.

If I was Jessica, I Would:

• Make movies that go straight to video

Curse Tony Romo

• Have a dad who is certifiably smarmy

• Have sold my soul to MTV

• Have an untalented sister considered more talented than me

• Be known mostly for my boobs

Sex and the City Trailer! It’s Here!

If you live in Manhattan, chances are you stumbled onto the set of the Sex and the City movie. They were everywhere this fall, prompting reporters, blogs, and crazy fan girls to speculate just what the plot of the feature would be.

Well, here’s our first look at what the ladies will be up to. Enjoy!


Jonathan Rhys Meyers Freaks Me Out

rhyslead.jpg A few years ago, Match Point was on HBO. Having nothing better to do, I began watching it, and noticed a pretty hot guy I’d never seen before.

That hot guy turned out to be Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and although I ended up falling asleep before the movie ended (something about self-absorbed people and Woody Allen dialogue works better than Lunesta for me), I couldn’t forget that Irish accent and those awesome lips.

Flash forward to one odd magazine cover and a few movies later, and you’ve got someone who’s not only no longer attracted to JRM, but has developed a strange fear of seeing his face anywhere.

I don’t know what happened. I’m not sure if he lost weight, got plastic surgery, or if my taste in men has just changed drastically, but seeing the recent pictures of JRM makes me want to stay away from his new movie August Rush (even though the adorable Keri Rusell co-stars) purely because his face makes me so damn uncomfortable.

Cheapest Digital Recorder Ever, or Just Cheap?

prod_flip_video_lg.jpg Every once in a while I’ll be walking down Second Avenue and see a guy with a cat on his head and think, damn! Why don’t I have something to record this with?! Or I’ll be home after a night on the town and catch my roommate spouting off some of the best drunk philosophy ever and wish there was a way to capture her wisdom.

But being the poor individual that I am, I can’t even afford a digital camera, and the tiny, no sound video application on my phone takes such a long time to start working that whatever I wanted to record is gone and over by the time I’m ready.

And what about those of you about to go abroad? Don’t you wish you had something to capture the exotic sights and sounds with that didn’t cost an entire semester’s tuition to buy?

Well, I think I might have found something that could help us all.

The Flip Video camera is a pocket sized digital camera that comes with a built in USB port and it’s own simple editing software—all for less than about what it would cost you to buy a new outfit. Read More »


Zac Efron to “Mann” Up in New Movie!

zac efronThis is exciting news!

The perpetual pretty boy Zac Efron is set to star in a movie that holds some promise outside the Disney-fied cushion of hormonal tweens!

A new film called 17 is set to begin production soon and has cast Efron as a 17 year old boy who has reverted from a grown man.

Hey, it’s not like it’s never been done before but, whatever. I’m just excited that it’s not another crappy musical.

Am I coming off as an excitable Efron fan? Well, sorry to say…I am not.

But that’s why I can honestly say I am pulling for the guy because for once he’s been giving a role that goes beyond puppy love and a boyish face.

Aww…he’s growing up!

And I haven’t even mentioned the best part!

Peter Jackson Tells Ryan Gosling He’s Too Fat, I Get Pissed

33394332.jpg Ryan Gosling, my future husband, walked away from a major film project this week, citing simply “creative differences”. The Peter Jackson helmed “ The Lovely Bones” will begin shooting today with Mark Wahlberg replacing Gosling.

Lovely Bones” is based off of the popular book of the same name by Alice Sebold, centering on a murdered 14-year-old girl watching the way her death has affected everyone close to her. Gosling was slated to play her father, and decided to gain some weight to help him seem age appropriate.

According to the Los Angeles Times, when Gosling walked onset, bearded and heavier than usual, Peter Jackson became slightly bent out of shape. The director was “still expecting some movie star allure” from Gosling, “not paunch and a beard”.

First of all, if it’s Ryan Gosling, it doesn’t matter if he’s got antennas and three arms—he’ll still give an amazing performance and be alluring while doing it. Besides, when did a beard and a little paunch hurt anyone? Has anyone seen Vince Vaughn lately? How about Benicio Del Toro? Tom Hanks? Read More »


Ryan Gosling’s New Feel Good Sex Toy Movie

It’s fall, and that means Hollywood starts caring about the movies again.

Traditionally, summer is full of blockbusters that are low on the good scale and high on the explosion scale, while fall marks the beginning of smaller, better made, Oscar contenders.

I don’t know if this one’s going to get any Oscars, but considering the star was nominated for an Academy Award last year and is the current love of my life, I’d say it’ll certainly develop some buzz—especially because the plot is so weird. Read More »


Porno Problem: Jameson Opts Out of Her Own Film?

scarlett johansson

If you don’t know who Jenna Jameson is, then good for you you clear-minded, tasteful lady, you! The famed & fortuned porno star recently enlisted Hollywood hoochie Scarlett Johansson to play the ‘honorable’ role of Jameson herself.The movie will be based on Jameson’s bestselling autobiography, How to Make Love Like a Porn Star.

I’m happy to see that this is what consumer America is spending their disposable income on.

Pardon me as I shed a tear for all the respectable authors out there with unpublished novels, sitting around in discontent and considering, bemused, why none of their English professors ever advised they explore the prominent field of adult film. Read More »


Tom Cruise Got the Diss!

Tom-Cruise-Scientology.jpgHa ha!

Tom Cruise is supposed to be filming this movie right now over in Germany, playing a guy named Claus von Stauffenberg. The movie is supposed to be about a plot to kill Adolf Hitler and Tom’s character is supposed to be the leader of the unsuccessful attempt to assassinate the Nazi dictator in 1944 with a hidden bomb.

Yea, this was supposed to be happening….

Not anymore!

Reuters reports the movie has been BANNED BY GERMANY. An entire freaking country has put its foot down, not because of what the movie stands for – but because of Mr. Scientology himself.

The German government doesn’t recognize Scientology as a church, saying “it masquerades as a religion to make money.” Therefore, if film makers officially ask to shoot in Germany, they “will not be allowed to film at German military sites if Count Stauffenberg is played by Tom Cruise, who has publicly professed to being a member of the Scientology cult”.

Oh man. This is funny. See what happens when you think you’re such a hot shot that you can go off on crazy tangents, piss off and offend people with your cult-like popularity? You get shot down from doing what you’re supposed to be doing in the first place – ACTING.

Tom Cruise is nuts.

Witness Will Ferrell, In All His Shirtless Glory

Will Ferrell, shirtlessLike most people, I saw Blades of Glory over the weekend. For those of you who haven’t, I suggest you do for a good laugh.

While it’s not quite as solid as recent college favorites, like Anchorman, Old School, and Wedding Crashers, this movie will have you cracking up and asking, “what the f$#&?” after everything Will Ferrell’s character, Chazz Michael Michaels, says. Most of the time, he makes no sense – but that’s what makes him the funniest character in the movie.

Jon Heder plays the straight man in Jimmy MacElroy, and does a pretty good job. Every so often, Napoleon shines through and leaves you wanting a good, “Tina, eat your ham.” But alas, there is no Tina, and there is no ham. There is only a funny blonde haircut and some sweet reactions to Ferrell’s comments.

The hidden gem in “Blades,” for me, is Nick Swardson. He plays Hector, MacElroy’s crazy-stalker-fan who wears amazing one-piece ski suits from the ’80′s. I love this guy. He’s funny in everything, especially Grandma’s Boy. Another college favorite that slipped under the radar in the box office, it recently became popular to stoners, frat boys and partiers alike, as a rental. Watch it!

So, if you’re looking for a fun date movie or wanna catch a flick with the girls, go see Blades of Glory. Then, when your friends tell you they wanna “get inside your face” or say, “You’re welcome, Stolkholm,” you’ll appreciate the references.
