And on that director's work, Robocop as well.

Robocop will be played by Joel Kinnaman.

With a "more serious/dark tone" no doubt.

Anyone watch the Comedy Awards tonight? Pretty good overall. I didn't even know that they did this last year too.

Finally, a meaningless award show I can kind of look forward to.

lol watchin family feud, Steve Harvey acts like he hates this gig.

Trust me that's just Steve Harvey.

Anybody see Nick Stahl anywhere?

Watched the Comedy Awards on demand a few days ago. Pretty good tribute and speech from Don Rickles.

Lots of jokes about how the Comedy Awards don't matter. At least Louis CK won a few even though they don't count for shit.

Also they didn't censor it and finally Amy Poeller won an award for being Leslie Knoppe.

Teaser for new Paul Thomas Anderson movie, I think it's loosely based on scientology, maybe. FakeLaser's actor doppelganger acting up a storm.

I want to see this:

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/y2X-R_PR6xs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

It doesn't show it in the trailer but it has an Alien theme.

the Great Gatsby movie is going to be a huge pile of shit

I get the guy thats doing it likes to do period movies with modern music but he couldnt have picked worse music if he tried.

The Great Gatsby is one of my favorite books, so I'm kind of looking forward to it

It might be a good movie if theres some way on the blu ray turn off the god awful soundtrack

The soundtrack may be for the trailer. This movie doesn't look to do something as wild as what you're saying. Romeo + Juliet wasn't a period movie, neither was Rouge.

The first movie was a piece of shit too. I expect the same. Book is probably too good to be made into a decent movie.

Romeo and Juliet sucked too. I never saw Rouge.

What?

I thought Vinny Chase starred in The Great Gatsby?

They really should have made one of those movies from Entourage into a real movie. Are you kidding?! I am Queen's BLVD!!!

finally official

Oh wow. How does that interviewer - having claimed that he watched LOST from beginning to end - not know that everything that happened on the island was real and the only thing that wasn't real was the "Flash Sideways"!?

Also, how can anyone think that "LOL it was all a dream" be any better that what we were actually given!?

interesting stuff here about Christian Bale

Christian Bale Biography: 'Batman' Star Was Almost In 'Titanic' & 13 Other Revelations From Harrison Cheung's Book

http://i.huffpost.com/gen/626754/thu...APHY-large.jpg

A new picture of Christian Bale emerges in a just-released biography by his former publicist and assistant, Harrison Cheung. Christian Bale: The Inside Story of the Darkest Batman, published May 29 on BenBella, reveals an actor who fought desperately to emerge from the world of independent British cinema into a complex, often incorrigible but above-all, ambitious global superstar.

Bale, who recently told GQ Australia he once took Drew Barrymore out on a date (though she "never called again"), is often seen as a gifted and dedicated actor who struggles with his temper (there is, of course, the unfortunate recording of Bale blasting a cinematographer on set).

HuffPost Entertainment read the book and found the following 14 details to be of particular interest. Some of these tidbits were previously covered in the media, but others -- like which of his characters he most identifies with -- appear to be new information. Before reading, consider one important note: Cheung once worked for the "Dark Knight Rises" star and no longer does. The following items are all taken from a book that is written from the former publicist's point of view. Cheung writes in the book that he was never actually paid for his years of service, so their relationship was certainly not uncomplicated.

We've reached out to Bale's representative for comment and will update the post as soon as we receive word.

1. Edward Norton, Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt all passed on the role of Patrick Bateman in "American Psycho." Though there was a great deal of negative buzz surrounding the picture (which changed directors as well), Bale felt the film could help him break into America. "I don't want to be a movie star," Bale told Cheung. "I want to be an actor. All this talk of career suicide ... I rather like that I'm running contrary to what everyone expects."

But Leonardo DiCaprio wanted the role. Lionsgate issued a press release during Cannes in 1998, announcing that Bale had been replaced. Bale was livid: "Losing this role is like having a pencil shoved through my brain." The studio offered him a supporting role, but Bale refused to consider that. DiCaprio eventually bailed after Gloria Steinem urged him not to take the role, which she said could inspire copycat murders from within his teen fan base.

The role then went to Ewan McGregor, who had just been screwed out of his lead part in "The Beach" by the newly landed DiCaprio. Bale begged McGregor not to take it, and the latter passed.

2. On the set of "American Psycho," Bale was required to appear nude multiple times. He used a "cock sock" (Cheung says it's an "industry term"), a "fleshtone spandex pouch" which covered his genitalia. Co-star Guinever Turner mocked the size of Bale's sock, which led Bale to exclaim, "Goddam her!"

3. Bale would call up family and friends in the character of Patrick Bateman, greeting associates with "It'sssssssss Patrick!"

4. DiCaprio proved to be Bale's biggest rival. Movies the latter lost to the fresh-faced Leonardo: "This Boy's Life," "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" "Romeo & Juliet," "Titanic," "The Beach."

5. He turned down the role of James Bond. After "American Pyscho," Bond producer Barbara Broccoli met with Bale and "intimated that the role of 007 would be Christian's for the taking" after Pierce Brosnan's contract expired. Bale resented the character for representing "every despicable stereotype about England and British actors." He told Broccoli that he had "already played a serial killer."

6. He was up for the part of Jake in "Training Day," but was told he looked to old to play the rookie cop. The role would eventually go to Ethan Hawke, who won his first Oscar nomination for the part.

7. Bale once paid Cheung with a computer, and the following note: "Enjoy the computer. Sorry I've not been able to pay you anything for all of your work, but I hope the computer can suffice until a time not too far in the future when we'll form a huge corporation, take over the world and sell out! Love, Christian"

8. Bale once admitted that, of all his roles, he identified most with Patrick Bateman.

9. He had an especially fraught relationship with his fans. When a fan letter reached his Manhattan Beach home, he sent a fax to Cheung that said the fan should be "eliminated." "Better to be safe than sorry," he wrote. "A screwdriver thrust thru the eyeball into the brain prevents any screaming. Let me know how it goes." When fans would approach him in public, Bale would "lecture little girls about being rude and intrusive until tears streamed down their faces, and their parents tugged them away from our table."

10. Steven Spielberg asked Bale to do a cameo in "Schindler's List." Bale refused.

11. Bale's infamous crash diet for "The Machinist," which led him to lose 65 pounds, consisted of water, an apple and one cup of coffee per day, with the occasional whiskey. Eventually, it cost him his social life. "In the end, I had to stop going out. I realized that wasn't going to work. I'd do a bit of eating hardly anything and losing 51 pounds and then I'd put on 7 pounds bingeing one night because I'd have a couple of drinks. So I decided no more social life, no more friends, no more dinners, no more drinks."

12. "It only took me five years of therapy to get past my Bale years," Cheung writes. "My therapist would describe my condition as post-traumatic stress disorder." Bale demanded Cheung sign a non-disclosure agreement before paying him, which Cheung refused to do.

13. "Batman Begins" was a passion project for Bale, and one that he dedicated to the memory of his father. This despite the fact that his relationships with his parents were deeply complicated (Bale's father tried to stop his son's involvement with "American Psycho," for example).

14. Bale did not attend "Dark Knight" co-star Heath Ledger's funeral.

Still love Bale.

He's great.

I forgot about the new Riddick movie.

Always imagined that Christian Bale would be the biggest douchebag in the world.

Whatever though, there's no rule that says he has to be a nice guy just coz he's famous.

Dennis Hopper was in a lot of bad movies.

"Halloween" actor Richard Lynch dies aged 76

http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/...h_2254633b.jpghttp://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jCtQBPsvAS...RLynch_000.jpg

(Reuters) - "Halloween" actor Richard Lynch, who became a staple in horror and science-fiction movies with his scarred facial features, has died at age 76, his spokesman said on Wednesday.

Lynch's representative, Mike Baronas, told Reuters that Lynch's body was discovered by one of the actor's friends, who had stopped by Lynch's house in Palm Springs, California, after not hearing from him in days. She found the door open and Lynch lying on the kitchen floor, "cold and lifeless."

Baronas said no investigation is being held into the death of the actor and his body was sent directly to a funeral home.

Lynch, who was born in New York City in 1936, made his name playing villainous characters in movies such as 1973's "Scarecrow," 1988's "Little Nikita" and 2007's installment of the "Halloween" horror franchise, directed by Rob Zombie.

Lynch also appeared in numerous television series in his five-decade career, most notably the sci-fi series "Battlestar Galactica" and "Galactica 1980."

Lynch's face was permanently scarred in 1967 when he took the drug LSD and set himself on fire, something he spoke openly about in the documentary film "LSD: The Trip to Where?"

Zombie paid his respects to Lynch on his Facebook page on Wednesday, saying "Richard was great to work with and really gave it his all. I will never forget the way he scared ... the kid actors in 'Halloween.'"

Lynch's last role was in Zombie's upcoming film "The Lords of Salem," which is due to be released later this year.

Nora Ephron lost her battle with cancer. She was 71.

Damn, I liked her work. R.I.P.

There can be only one... and it is Ryan Reynolds.

Hollywood continues to do everything in its power to prevent him from being Deadpool.

Is it just me or does the Total Recall trailer look a bit TOO faithful to the original?

Total Recall looks different enough. I don't get why people are so hardcore for the original. It wasn't anywhere near Ahnawld's better movies.

Not saying it is - Just that the second trailer looks, not word for word, but so close to the original that it makes me feel like it's less a reBOOT as a reIMAGINING.

So the triple-boob chick and the sliding elevators defined the original for you? Because that's all the nods I gathered from the trailer.

Has anyone seen Continuum yet? I'm starting the first episode. It seems to have a lot of Stargate/Syfy people so far but I feel like it's too futuristic. Rachel Nichols is hot though.

Really hope they don't just go with Deb believing his story and then spending the entire season finding little clues that he's lying only to find out he's a killer again at the end. Would rather they just went the route of the books.

Bret Easton Ellis Says Casting Matt Bomer As Christian Grey Would Be Ludicrous Because He’s Gay

http://cdn04.cdn.socialitelife.com/w...ss-400x470.jpg

WTF Ellis? Seriously? Supposedly because Matt Bomer is gay, there is no way on earth that he could play the role of Christian Grey.

Bret Easton Ellis, who tried to make it quite clear that he wasn’t discriminating, went on a Twitter rant saying that Matt Bomer “isn’t right for Christian Grey because he is openly gay.” The tweets didn’t end there, however, as he continued his venting spree stating, “Fifty Shades of Grey demands an actor that is genuinely into women. Get it?!?”

Here are the tweets that started off the firestorm.

“Okay. Let’s finalize this. Matt Bomer is totally hot and a very good actor. He is NOT right for Christian Grey and it complicates the role,” Ellis tweeted. “I don’t care how good an actor you are but being married to another man complicates things for playing CG…Matt Bomer is NOT about discrimination. It’s about an intensely straight actor wanting absolutely to screw Ana Steele…the most popular book on the planet having Matt Bomer–a gay actor–play Christian Grey is absolutely ludicrous. Why?”

Bret tweeted at the weekend: “Fifty Shades of Grey: Casting Matt Bomer is the equivalent as casting Jesse Tyler Ferguson…” Ferguson is a gay actor who plays a gay character on Modern Family.

The writer revealed a few days later: “It’s a very major disappointment to announce that I’ve somehow been taken off the list of possible screenwriters for Fifty Shades of Grey… @E_L_James I hope you find someone as passionate as I was about Fifty Shades of Grey. I will miss it.”

All we can say is that we’re very happy that Bret Easton Ellis will not writing the screenplay or directing Fifty Shades Of Grey.

Check out the series of tweets below…

“Okay. Let’s finalise this. Matt Bomer is totally hot and a very good actor. He is NOT right for Christian Grey and it complicates the role,” Bret said on Twitter.

“Fifty Shades of Grey: Matt Bomer: I don’t care how good an actor you are but being married to another man complicates things for playing CG.

“Fifty Shades of Grey: Matt Bomer is NOT about discrimination. It’s about an intensely straight actor wanting absolutely to screw Ana Steele.”

He continued: “Fifty Shades of Grey: the most popular book on the planet having Matt Bomer–a gay actor–play Christian Grey is absolutely ludicrous. Why?

“Jesus, the homophobia over Matt Bomer not being Christian Grey is so unsettling and aesthetically retarded. He’s NOT right for Christian G.

“Okay I’ll say it. Matt Bomer isn’t right for Christian Grey because he is openly gay. He’s great for other roles but this is too big a game.”

Bret added: “And I think if Matt Bomer wants the role which I doubt the international press tour will be an embarrassing fiasco. He’s not CG. Never…

“I am NOT discriminating Matt Bomer because of his sexuality. Fifty Shades of Grey demands an actor that is genuinely into women. Get it?!?

“I actually think it’s cool that women want Matt Bomer as Christian Grey. It means that we’ve moved beyond stereotypes and that gay is hot…

“I think Matt Bomer is incredibly handsome and a good actor but I think he comes off totally gay in White Collar. And that is why no to CG…”

He concluded: “Look, all actors are GAY: they put on make up and pretend to be someone else. That’s just a fact. Rock and roll. Deal with it. Scientology?

“Would anyone watch Brokeback Mountain if it stayed true to the original story where both characters are hideously ugly? No. Homo beauty WIN?

“Hollywood is the most homophobic place in the entire world.”

Isn't 50 shades basically Lifetime movie network porn? are they gonna show penetration? Well, if he read for the part and the book's creator says the guy should be CG then good on him.

“Hollywood is the most homophobic place in the entire world.”

Totally get the opposite impression. I envision Hollywood as everybody fucking everybody. Men Sucking dicks one nanosecond then fucking pussy the next, women eating pussy and just as quickly, taking a ferocious pounding of cock sword.

and this is at 11:00 am on a Tuesday.

Matt Bomer does a pretty good job of pretending to love vaginas in the USA Original Series "White Collar". I thought Bomer never was "openly gay" but rather saying that his personal life is private and none of the media's concern FYI: White Collar is my favorite show on television.

It's not for everyone.

I'm sure it's not. But, being one who would never want a penis in MY mouth, I'll trust you in making this statement.:p

Inbetweeners US. I fucking hate America sometimes.

This quote comes from one of my all time favorite movies, can you guess which one?


"What the fuck is a Drexel?"


winner gets rep and a kissy face.

Why does Cuba Gooding Jr. do nothing but Direct-to-DVD stuff?

He's a good actor. What gives?

Good actors are different from 'hot' actors.

After Radio he's getting the nick dinsmore treatment.


But seriously I think regardless of his skill he chooses bad projects to make a quick buck and in return hurt his marketability to larger market films and directors. Similar to tv actors breaking into film or child actors trying to surge a career as an adult.

Once people see you as something it's really hard to change people's minds.

Yeah I hear you. The reason I thought of it was I was watching "As Good as it Gets" last night and was thinking he was pretty great in it. And then I thought about the other movies... Jerry McGuire, Men of Honor, fuck even Outbreak. He was in big movies with big time players and stood on his own.

Was just a thought that crossed my mind

Who still owns a VCR and what/when was it last used?

I thought that was strange but whatever.

VCR/DVD combo player. Watched a video on Guademalan genocide for a paper 3 years ago.

I am less than 100 pages in, and completely enthralled by it. I would say it is a hard read due to the author's liberal use of the vernacular of the time period, but even though there is a cornucopia of words I've never seen before, the context in which they are used is such that you can always immediately understand what they mean.

Today is a banner day in TV history...for it was 40 years ago to the day that CBS debuted The Price Is Right, originally and for the first at least 2 years called The New Price Is Right as there had been an earlier version which ran from 1956-1965 ('56-'63 on NBC, '63-'65 on ABC).
