Team Jacob or Team Edward?

Just for the record, I'm Team Jacob all the way. Robert Pattinson, though very attractive in a brooding, sexy, I'll suck your blood way, just doesn't hold a flame to Taylor Lautner.

At Bandera, the tablecloths are covered with a new piece of butcher paper for each party that's seated. Whenever there are kids at the tables, we give them some crayons so they can draw or do whatever kids do on the tables. The other night, one little girl left the following note on her table paper:

"Team Jacob! Because real men don't glitter."

What a hilarious statement! I did some research on this whole "real men don't glitter thing," and found out that there are not only websites dedicated to the Jacob/Edward debate, but you can also get lipgloss, t-shirts, and coffee mugs, among other things.

Hit It Or Quit It / Crush of the Day / Jailbait: Taylor Lautner

Taylor Lautner, one of the many breakout stars from the Twilight movie series, has the body of a God. Seriously. And he's only 17 years old. I'm not sure if it's illegal for me to ask this (I hope it's not), but...

Taylor Lautner: hit it or quit it? All I'm saying is that I haven't seen abs like that in a long time. Sigh.

In addition, Taylor is HANDS DOWN my crush of the day. He's adorable and I can't wait till he's 18 so I can move to Hollywood and become his BFF/BF. :)

Thanks, Perez, for making my jaw drop for a minute and a half when I clicked on your page...

Crush of the Day: Christian Bale


I really don't think I need to say much about today's crush.  He's Batman, for goodness sake.

Christian Bale just does it for me.  Some of my favorite movies of his include Batman Begins (which I just finished watching), The Machinist (for which he lost like 40 pounds), The Prestige, American Psycho, and Newsies.

Sigh...

I can't wait!!!


How fabulous!  This has to be the fantasy of millions of gays out there...

Christina Aguilera, already signed on to star in her first feature film, Burlesque, will have Cher as a costar!  That's right, Xtina and Cher in the same movie, and it's about burlesque dancing.  Pretty great, right?

Not too many other details exist, but the movie should be released sometime in 2011.  I can't wait!

Crush of the Day: Jason Statham

Netflix delivered a gem tonight: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.  It's a great British heist film, complete with lots of foul language, booze, cigarettes, blood, guts, and Jason Statham.

Statham has been in the tabloids and gossip blogs lately for his role in The Transporter films; the third installment was released last year and people finally started noticing what a hunk he is.  He has appeared in other Guy Ritchie directed films including Snatch (one of my personal favorites) and Revolver.  Also, there are rumors circulating that he and Ritchie are collaborating on a top-secret movie-musical...  That sounds interesting.  Before acting, Statham modeled for French Connection.  

Anyhow, Jason Statham completely deserves the success he is receiving; not only is he insanely attractive, but he's a damn good actor.

Kill Bill 1 & 2 in One Minute!

I love the Kill Bill movies...  They're among my top favorites of all time.  Tons of awesome fight scenes, beautiful cinematography, genius scripts, and fierce acting.

If you haven't seen the movies, I recommend that you check them out.  If you don't have time right now and are curious as to what they're about, check out this one minute (and one take!) version of BOTH movies.

Brad Pitt in Fight Club...


The question is this: was Brad's role in Fight Club the best/sexiest he has ever looked?  I think so, and so does Spicy.  Check out her commentary and a few photos of brad circa 1999, around the time that Fight Club came out.

A few pics to get you motivated...

FAME is coming!!!

This trailer isn't amazing...  But it's good.  I'm not sure how I feel about the re-vamping of the title song, but the dancing looks good, and so does "Out Here On My Own."

Anyways, check out the trailer from the forthcoming remake of Fame.

Crush of the Day: Kevin Zegers

I first noticed his good looks in one of my favorite movies, Transamerica, also staring the fiercely talented Felicity Huffman.  Kevin Zegers, 24, is originally from Ontario, Canada, and has been doing TV, movies, and commercials since he was six years old.  His other work has included Air Bud, The X-Files, and House, among many.  He has also signed on to play one of the title roles in the re-make of Bonnie & Clyde, alongside Hillary Duff.

His role in Transamerica is that of a hustling street kid who drives across the country with his biological father (played by Huffman), who is a pre-operative male-to-female transsexual. Kevin's talent is overwhelming in the film; he's at times sexy, completely broken, naive, frightening, fragile, and funny.  If you haven't seen the movie, please check it out, if for nothing else than a pretty fierce skinny dipping scene...  ;)

Here's his IMDB profile; most notable is his Cannes Film Festival award for "Male Revelation." More pictures below.  You're welcome.

Damn Yankees?

Really?  I mean, I understand the appeal of movie musicals, trust me, I do.  I love them.  Give me Dreamgirls or High School Musical and a bottle of wine and I'm set for the night.  However, there comes a point where it's just going overboard, and the upcoming remake of Damn Yankees just might be that point.

Starring Jim Carrey and Jake Gyllenhaal, Damn Yankees is being produced by New Line Cinema. 

I mean, I guess I'm pretty excited to see Jake in a musical...  Can he sing?  Can he dance?  Only time will tell.


Crush of the Day: Dustin Lance Black

I've had a week to really think about it, and my initial response has been confirmed: I'm in love with Oscar-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black.  To be completely honest, I didn't really know anything about him until the Oscars last week; I was lucky enough to see Milk a few days before the awards show, but the screenwriter's name didn't really stick with me.

Anyhow, he's a doll.  In addition to writing Milk, he's done a few other feature-length films, as well as being a credited writer for the HBO show Big Love.

Defamer has complied a "user's guide" for Lance (as his friends call him), which is quite helpful in answering some general background questions.

Oh, and my other suspicion was correct: he looks great with his shirt off.

Crush of the Day: Thomas Jane

Actor Thomas Jane, married to Patricia Arquette, has been getting a lot of publicity lately.  I wonder why?

Oh, it's because he's incredibly hot.

Jane's most notable lead role was in The Punisher, but I  haven't seen it.  I have seen him, however, in both Magnolia and Boogie Nights.  I knew I recognized him!

He's also recently been signed on to a new HBO show called Hung, in which he plays a man who is, well, very well endowed.  I have a feeling the gays are gonna like that show...

Kids take on Pulp Fiction.

The 2009 Oxford Film Festival did a remake of a few classic movies, including a scene or two from Tarantino's Pulp Fiction.  To make it a little more interesting (and entertaining), they used a couple of child actors.

Pretty funny.

Fired Up...


If you know me well, you know that I'm a sucker for cheerleading movies.  Bring It On has a special place in my DVD collection.  That said, this new movie called Fired Up that's coming out soon looks ridiculous.  The premise is this: the two high school football stars decide to become cheerleaders in order to score some girls.  You know what, I think there's actually a Bring It On sequel (probably number six) with the exact same plot.

I'll probably see it, let's be honest.
