Hump Day Hottie

 

Who? Alex Pettyfer

You’ll be able to see Alex in the oft delayed, updated version of Beauty and Beast called Beastly, when it finally gets released early next year after being bumped from it’s original slot this past summer.

You’ll also be able to see him in the titular role in I Am Number Four, based on the latest piece of  young adult fiction which is basically Escape to Witch Mountain for the Twilight generation.  Check out the teaser trailer below

Who knows if the movie will take off or not, but if the above photo is any indication, shirtlessness will most likely ensue.

Brandon Flowers isn’t just for “Only the Young”


“>

 

Looking like the ring master of Cirque du Soleil, The Killers (ex?) frontman brings us the second video/single from his solo effort Flamingo

Kind of makes sense, Brandon is from Las Vegas and the video was actually filmed on location at the Wynn Hotel and Resort at a show called Le Reve, which was created by an ex-Cirque member. 

A metaphor perhaps?

“Skyline” trailer – Look into the light at your own peril


“>

 

Invading alien Ships!  Scary blue lights!  Abductions!  Giant Monsters!  Eric Balfour???

Not sure what to make of Skyline.  Actually yes I do, it was probably pitched as Independence Day meets War of The Worlds meets Cloverfield.  Which is why almost everything in this trailer (except people being pulled up into the ships by the light if they look at it) somehow seems familiar.

Think I’ll wait for the DVD (Sorry Eric).

Jeff Bridges shows his “True Grit”


“>
 

Question is, will this western by the Coen brothers, in which a young girl (Hailee Stienfeld) hires a grizzled US Marshal (Bridges) and a Texas Ranger (Matt Damon) to track down her Pa’s killer (Josh Brolin), be an Oscar contender? 

If the trailer is any indication, you bet your sweet ass.

Lenny Kravitz somehow pulls this off

I wouldn’t be caught dead in it (I’d be way too self conscious and feel ridiculous).  Granted, Lenny’s a musician and raging heterosexual.  It’s a testament to him that he still looks straight in that ensemble.

Not sure about the wedge boots though – pretty fug.  On the plus side, I guess the murse no longer has to match the footwear (good to know).

And since I can’t post ANYTHING without a little bit of snark, the only thing this outfit seems to be missing is a light-saber or Dorthy Zbornak from the Golden Girls.

Love & Other Drugs (like a nude Jakey G)

 

Nothing like seeing Jakey in almost all his glory in a poster for the upcoming film Love & Other Drugs, which also stars what’s-her-name (I kid – Anne Hathaway).

Hopefully, this takes some of the taint left from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time off of Jake.  If you haven’t seen it, do yourself a favor and keep it that way.  It’s really that bad.

Look!  New trailer (you can go back to oogling Jake in a moment).  BTW there’s another poster for the movie making the rounds that shows Jake pulling off his underwear.  Totally hot, but it’s a fake (unfortunately).

Do you want to take a trip with “The Tourist”?


 

Johnny Depp stars along with Angelina Jolie in a thriller about a man on vacation pulled into a plot by a femme fatale in Venice.  Flirting, kissing, chases, gun fights, spying, espinoge, double crosses, plot twists, and bad English accents ensue.

They had me at Depp and Jolie.

Trailer for Season 6 of “Supernatural”


“>

 

Not sure if I’m going to tune in or not for the upcoming season as I thought the show had pretty much run it’s course for me by the end of last year. 

Gotta say though, this trailer looks pretty good and…oh hello brief shot of shirtless Sam doing pull ups!  Well,  apparently I will be tuning in to see what next befalls the brothers Winchester (I’m so easy to sway).

Season premiere airs September 24th on the CW.

About that MTV VMA preshow…

Cringe worthy pretty much sums it up.  I wasn’t sure who to feel more embarrased for, as I was too busy feeling sorry for myself having to watch it.

Anyway.

There’s a non scandal/controversy that people are talking about this morning.  Surprisingly, it’s not Nikki Minaj’s apparent lack of skill lip-synching (did Britney Spears teach a course?), it’s Black Eyed Pea will.i.am’s choice of costume when he performed with her.

Apparently, a black man wearing black makeup with an all black outfit constitutes black-face in some circles.  According to UsWeekly, the singer got called everything from a “racist” to someone saying that he set the human race “back 1000 years” on Twitter.

will.i.am took to his  Twitter, asking the bitchers and whiners if they were being serious (a sense of humour isn’t their strong point – just sayin’) adding that they should chose things that they “bark about” a little more carefully with there being far more relevant things to get offended by.

Like the overall mediocraty of the pre-show, perhaps?

Gwyneth Paltrow goes country in new movie y’all


“>
 

Country Strong sort of picks up a few months from where the (from what I can tell) far superior Crazy Heartleft off, a washed up country singer recently sprung from rehab, trying to get back on top.  Except in instead of grizzled “old country” Jeff Bridges, we get snotty, pretentious, “new country” Gwyneth Paltrow. 

The film also stars Tim McGraw as her lover/manager, my new fantasy boyfriend Garret Hedlund as another country singer who gets pulled into the crazy, and Gossip Girl’sLeighton Meester as a new star on the horrizon that’s trying to pull an All About Eveon poor Goopy’s character (nice to see her finally step out of Blake Lively’s shadow).

Not sure if this is theatre or rental material, but I think they should have called it Crazy Heart 2: Goopy Goes to Nashville.
