DVD Review: The Tudors – The Complete First Season

January 9th, 2008

Doesn?t offer much more than what was available during the show?s original broadcast.
Written by Caballero OscuroIt turns out your high school teacher was right: history can be fun! Showtime’s take on The Tudors ratchets up the sex and violence of jolly old England and features a preening pretty boy king seemingly more at home on the catwalk than the throne. As played by Jonathan Rhys Mayers, young King Henry VIII pouts and…

DVD Review: Eagle Vs Shark

January 9th, 2008

Misfits in love tale never gets off the ground.
I was sure I was going to like this movie. How can you go wrong with a quirky tale of outcasts finding love in each other? It seems to be the perfect subject for a cult-style film. However, the creative team behind Eagle Vs Shark found a way to sink the premise and offer up a film that is funny in spurts, boring in spurts, and ultimately…

DVD Review: Che Guevara – Where You’d Never Imagine Him

January 9th, 2008

Someday somebody will make a great film about Che Guevara, but this isn’t it.
Written by El ConquistadorkoChe Guevara: Where You'd Never Imagine Him, a 108-minute documentary by Cuban director Manuel Perez purports to be a surprise-filled expose of the famous Argentinean revolutionary, but it's little more than a propaganda piece that shamelessly aims to use Guevara's legacy to bolster Castro regime's…

Movie Review: Superbad

January 9th, 2008

The Apatow comedy crew descends further into sophomoric vulgarity and squanders whatever drama they attempt to explore.
It was bound to happen at some point. The younger the characters in Judd Apatow’s comedy universe, the greater the temptation would become for the guys to use it as an excuse to deliver every single dirty, filthy phrase they can think of. Now that the main characters are teenagers in Superbad, they have free rein to go for the cheapest…

Amy Winehouse goes blonde

January 9th, 2008

A shockingly blonde Amy Winehouse was spotted in London today. Apparently she woke up this morning and decided to demonstrate what Britney Spears would look like with a real drug problem: “I’ll show them Yanks a thing or two,” she said. “Alright then, time for me breakfast: cocaine on toast. Hold the toast. Scrumdiddlyumptious! Now off to change me knickers in the car then to the market. I want to rest my peepers on them magazines before lunch at Mr. Doherty’s. He’s serving crack on a spoon; my bloody favorite!”

Britney Spears’ parents tried to commit her

January 9th, 2008
Thumbnail image for 0107_britney_spears_crazy_00.jpg Britney Spears’ parents, particularly her father Jamie, have been trying to get Britney into a mental hospital for months. Her dad suspected last summer her problems were mental and not substance abuse. Britney refused back then to get tested for bipolar disorder and is still refusing, according to TMZ:
We're told both Jamie and Lynne Spears believe Sam Lutfi, the guy who was inseparable from Brit until last week, was a prime reason she was refusing treatment. They are so mad at Lutfi they threw him out of Cedars last week.
What does Sam Lufti have to gain by Britney not being in her right mind? Besides her money and vagina. That just doesn’t make sense. There’s got to be another motive… Does she have a Playstation 3 or something? No… Wait! It’s dirt bikes, isn’t it? Yeah, it is. I knew it. Damn, I should be a detective. Hey, there’s Sam Lufti. Why is he carrying around gold bars and a box of condoms? Those don’t fit on a dirt bike.

Tara Reid says she’s not an anorexic booze hound

January 9th, 2008

Tara Reid insists she doesn’t have an eating disorder or a drinking problem. In fact, Tara would much rather stay in and, knowing her, probably read the Bible to orphans. Here’s what she said to OK!: On her weight: “I’m not too thin. I go up 10 pounds, I go down 10 pounds. I was thin for a movie that I just finished [the upcoming horror film Vipers]. Now they’re going to see me and say I’m too fat because I’ve gained 10 pounds... I can’t win!" On supposedly partying every night: "I don’t like going out every single night. I like to hang with friends and eat and sit next to a fire — that to me is the best night." On people calling her an alcoholic: "If I have a drink in my hand, it doesn’t make me an alcoholic. If I want a glass of wine, I want a glass of wine. I shouldn’t be afraid of it because of what the media might say. Anything you do, you’re screwed. That’s the lesson I’ve learned." I just noticed Tara Reid is not only full of shit but has an unusually long neck. Must be a side effect from all that anorexia. Or the debilitating alcoholism. I can’t decide. Then again it could be the whoring. Can’t forget the whoring.

Adnan Ghalib is shopping around nude Britney photos

January 9th, 2008

Britney Spears’ former paparazzi lover Adnan Ghalib is definitely shopping around nude photos of Britney despite his claims that he's not. However, Adnan’s having trouble unloading them for his initial asking price of $1 million. An Australia magazine paid only $57 grand for the pics. TMZ reports:
TMZ has confirmed that the semi-nude pics of Brit Brit have been shopped around to various weeklies. One source says a major U.S. weekly was pitched the photos this week but passed.
TMZ says another mag also passed because the photos “weren’t any good.” I feel sorry for the poor photo editor that had to see these pics. He’s probably drunk at home watching a documentary on child birth and going “Ah, much better.”
