My dad and I never missed an episode of Charlie’s Angels. My mom would roll her eyes and find something (anything) else to do but for an hour each week, two of us never blinked. Sure, it was far-fetched, outrageous, and over the top. Why did we watch? You guessed it, because it was far-fetched, outrageous, and over the top!
ABC’s bringing the outrageous fun back to tv this fall – now isn’t that cool of them? Below is the video teaser. I venture that a lot of people will be glued to ABC at 8/7 C each Thursday night. I’m game!
I’m really excited about the movie Warrior. It won’t be out until the fall, unfortunately – but when it does hit theaters, I think it’ll hit them hard. I’ll certainly be there to see it.
Warrior Synopsis: The youngest son (Tom Hardy) of an alcoholic former boxer (Nick Nolte) returns home, where he’s trained by his father for competition in a mixed martial arts tournament. He ultimately finds himself squared off against his older brother (Joel Edgerton). Jennifer Morrison stars as Tom Hardy’s wife.
The movie also stars Kurt Angle, who can currently be seen in an outrageously bizarre, yet darned entertaining, romp of a movie called Dylan Dog: Dead of Night. In this wild movie, Angle plays Wolfgang.
By the way, if you haven’t seen Fast Five, you really have to see it this weekend – it’s the best in the series. It’s hilarious, packed with action, and one of the most entertaining movies of the year. If you have seen it, give Dylan Dog a try. I’m willing to bet you haven’t seen anything quite like it in a while! It actually has quite a few laugh out loud moments – and as far as I’m concerned, that makes it a winner.
Here’s the Official Movie Trailer for Fast Five with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Brunette beauties Gal Gadot (Giselle) and Jordana Brewster (Mia) are back, along with Diesel and Walker. Also returning to the franchise are Tyrese Gibson (Transformers, Death Race, Legion, Four Brothers, 2 Fast, 2 Furious) as Roman Pearce, Ludacris (Max Payne) as Tej, and Sung Kang returns to the role of Han Lue.
Fast Five, which boasts an all-star cast in every since of the word also stars Dwayne Johnson and Spanish actress Elsa Pataky (Snakes on a Plane).
Fast Five’s Plot:
Brian O’Conner (former officer, played by Paul Walker) partners with ex-con Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) on the “other” side of the law. Brian and Mia (Dom’s sister) broke Dom out of custody, and they’ve now eluding authorities across borders.
They find themselves pretty much trapped and running out of time in Rio de Janeiro. They realize they have to pull one last BIG job in order to gain their freedom.
They assemble an elite team of top racers, the best of the best. Tough guy federal agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) plays the sort of man who always gets his guy. He, of course, is assigned to track down Dom and Brian, and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture the two.
As Hobbs and his men tear up Brazin in pursuit, he realizes that it’s getting nearly impossible to tell the “players” apart… Who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy?
To make things even more interesting, Hobbs isn’t the only one after Dom and Brian. Someone else is on their trails and they don’t want them captured – they want them dead.
Gorgeous scenery, fast action, and a killer cast. This is one to start looking forward to right now.
When it comes to acting and when it comes to movies, Johnny Depp is the man. When it comes to pirates, Captain Jack Sparrow is the pirate. So to say that I’ve been anxiously awaiting the trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean On Strangers Tides would be like saying Rita Hayworth was a female.
Woeful understatement.
Now that I’ve gotten my “trailer fix,” I now enter a desperate state of anxiousness awaiting opening night! Given that it won’t be until May, I’m in for a long haul.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides has an all-star cast that makes any movie fanatic’s head swoon. Johnny Depp, Judi Dench, Penelope Cruz, Ian McShane, Geoffrey Rush? Outstanding!
Johnny Depp – Jack Sparrow
Ian McShane – Blackbeard
Penélope Cruz – Angelica
Geoffrey Rush – Barbossa
Gemma Ward – Tamara
Richard Griffiths – King George II
Judi Dench - ?????
Stephen Graham – Scrum
Keith Richards – Captain Teague
Sam Claflin – Philip
Kevin McNally – Gibbs
Astrid Berges-Frisbey – Syrena
I’m sure you’ve noticed that one of the most beautiful, talented, and intelligent actresses to ever grace the screen is back in the news. Can you tell that Julia Roberts is a favorite of mine? Right up there with Audrey Hepburn, Angelina Jolie, Lucille Ball, Keira Knightley, Sandra Bullock, and Cameron Diaz.
Now, that’s a killer list of ladies.
The lovely Julia Roberts has a new movie coming out – Eat, Pray, Love (HD Trailer below).
Eat, Pray, Love synopsis: While trying to get pregnant, a happily married woman realizes her life needs to go in a different direction, and after a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey. Based on the memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert.
Julia, who is as beautiful as ever, isn’t your typical Hollywood actress. She says she’s looking forward to aging gracefully. “It’s unfortunate that we live in such a panicked, dysmorphic society where women don’t even give themselves a chance to see what they’ll look like as older persons. I want to have some idea of what I’ll look like before I start cleaning the slates,” the 42 year old says. “I want my kids to know when I’m pissed, when I’m happy, and when I’m confounded. Your face tells a story… and it shouldn’t be a story about your drive to the doctor’s office.” [Elle Magazine]
Great stuff!
Eat, Pray, Love will be in theaters August 13, 2010 and I will SO be there, popcorn with M&Ms and Diet Coke in hand and husband in tow.
I recently watched the first movie in the Transporter series and loved it. Jason Statham is perfect in this role and the action sequences and driving scenes blew me away.
Apparently, the 3rd movie plans on doing the same thing. Jason Statham says that Transporter 3 is “a fan’s dream come true.” He also says that in his opinion, the action scenes are quite a bit different than what we saw in the first two movies.
If you’re like just about everyone else, you’re getting pretty excited about Twilight. It’ll FINALLY be in theaters November 21 (20 days to go!) and a lot of people are expecting it to have “Dark Knight” type success.
I guess we’ll see soon enough.
You could actually beat the crowds and the drama by buying your tickets online now at Fandango. If you use the banner to the right, you’ll get a free remix of Bella’s Lullaby.
Twilight has a soundtrack that should be pretty amazing in its own right. The soundtrack features songs from Paramore, Linkin Park, Collective Soul and Muse. In addition to Robert’s song, “Never Think”, “Spotlight” and “Bella’s Lullaby.” (You can find them all on YouTube.)
“Never Think” by Robert Pattinson:

It doesn’t get much better than this. One of my favorite-ist actors and directors, Clint Eastwood directed one of my favorite-ist actresses ever, Angelina Jolie, in Changeling. It opens tomorrow in theaters and if I had a tent I’d probably go camp out just to be near them when they hit town.
I have a feeling the performances, settings, clothes, story – everything – is going to be remarkable.
My name is Joi ("Joy"). I created this website for one reason: To do my part to keep the stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood shining brightly. When we keep their memories alive, we keep a part of ourselves alive.
