Jake shows us the Sex in the City
On MTV Canada this week Jake Gyllenhaal had a message for the womenfolk:
“I would just like to say to all the ladies out there, I know this is a big weekend for you in North America…this (stands up and points at his body) is Sex and the City – and if you want to see Sex and the City 2 – just see my movie twice.”LOL!

NIKE WRITE THE FUTURE - FULL LENGTH VERSION
A three minute film for the World Cup directed by Alejandro González Iñarritu. My favorite part is the Ronaldo played by Gael Garcia Bernal moment!
Nike today unveils an action-packed film that brings together some of the world’s greatest players to inspire football lovers and sports fans around the world. The epic three-minute “Write the Future” film takes people on a journey that dramatically captures that one moment when headlines are written from a single pass, or one strike can bring a nation eternal happiness, while bringing others to their knees…
Directed by renowned Hollywood director and producer Alejandro González Iñarritu (21 Grams, Babel), this epic football journey unfolds through a match of goal line clearances, game-winning tackles and lightning footwork that literally send a ripple effect across the world.
“Every touch you have in a game has the ability to change the entire course of not just those 90 minutes, but your entire tournament or season,” said Cristiano Ronaldo. “One touch of the ball can be an opportunity to leave your mark on the game and write your own future, or equally a moment missed, that creates a legacy for your opponent with their fans.”

Jerry Seinfeld shoots the breeze with Jimmy Fallon's audience
This wasn't even on the show. They were just trying to film a few commercial spots, and Jerry just ran away with the moment, doing an impromptu Q&A with the audience. It all gets very deep when they get into which superpower is best! When Jimmy wants to save it for the show, Jerry reminds him that no one watches live, 'It's all the internet!!" And we prove his point.
Gerard Butler to Sing Again Onscreen?
The latest rumor swirling around the remake of A Star Is Born is that the male lead may go to Gerard Butler. Nick Cassavetes is confirmed to direct, but previously Russell Crowe had been buzzed about with Beyonce for the leads. Russell Crowe does have more of that older man vibe, but man it would be great to have Gerry sing again in a movie, something he hasn't done since Phantom of the Opera. I'd also like to see him stretch himself dramatically. Action flicks and Rom Coms are all very well, but where's the guy who excelled in Dear Frankie?

Prince of Persia Sand of time: Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Sir Ben ...
European comedian Daniele Rizzo interviewed the cast and director of Prince of Persia playing Dastan's son, complete with costume and wig.
Jake Gyllenhaal can't stop laughing, but it's really funny how much Ben Kingsley plays along with it. "Don't touch that dagger, the the way. You just touched it!"

Spamalot
One of my very first Youtube videos, back when there were what seemed like a million Phantom of the Opera fan videos being made, most of them deadly serious. I've had nearly 17,000 views of this Spamalot POTO mashup.
Still gives me a chuckle.
Happy birthday Youtube! You've been a creative outlet for countless women making fan videos.
My YouTube Story - Michael Buckley
Happy 5th Birthday Youtube! Michael Buckley is one of my favorite Youtubers. I was Youtubed obsessed for quite some time, and have weaned away from it lately, but I still enjoy What the Buck. I think Michael Buckley was one of the first who quit his day job to make his living from Youtube alone.

Dominic Cooper looking very dashing
Lordy, lordy. I have no idea what this Tamara Drewe movie is about, but if Dominic Cooper is looking like this in it, count me in! The British comedy by Stephen Frears is showing out of competition at Cannes, and opens in the UK this fall.

'The Adjustment Bureau' Trailer HD
Wow, this is the first I'd heard about this film. Looks great! Blunt and Damon together make a good team.
Fair Game - Extended Clip
First look from Cannes of the Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame movie. Great choice in Sean Penn and Naomi Watts.
The Adventures of Robin Hood in 5 seconds
Somehow, I don't think Russell will laugh this much. "Are you not entertained?!"

Extra skit from Betty White on SNL
Betty White was just absolutely awesome on SNL Saturday night. It was also great to see all the women alums. There was so much goodness, this Bronx Beat skit, filmed during dress rehearsal, was cut!

Chris Pine in a Blue Tux
Banishing all memories of powder blue prom tuxes, Chris Pine matches his navy blue tux to his gorgeous blue eyes at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit.

Love this film to pieces and especially Redgrave's Hannah!
Lynn Redgrave also was brilliant in Bill Condon's Kinsey as the last interview subject.
There won't be any musical numbers - Bill Condon writes message to Twilight fans
I love how Bill Condon starts this note to the fans on Facebook as I am certainly one of those Twilight Moms:
Greetings Twihards, Twifans, Twilight Moms, Team Edward, Team Jacob and Team Switzerland,
I just want to say hello to all of you and let you know that I'm stoked to be getting underway on the adventure of making BREAKING DAWN. As you've probably heard, I've been given a very warm welcome by Stephenie and Team Summit - who are super-focused, as you know, on getting these movies right.
I'm pretty busy bringing myself up to speed on what you already know by heart: I've read BREAKING DAWN twice, rewatched Catherine's and Chris's movies 2-3 times each, have all four CDs playing in my car, and have Catherine's notebook, Mark Cotta Vaz's companion books, and even Volume 1 of the graphic novel here on my desk - a corner of my office is starting to look like Hot Topic. I realize that this barely qualifies me for "newborn" status in the universe you've been living inside for a few years now, but a guy's gotta start somewhere.
Like many of you, I've always been slightly obsessed with vampires, dating back to the prime-time series DARK SHADOWS, which I followed avidly as a kid. But that alone hadn't been enough to get me interested in making a vampire movie, even though my early screenwriting and directing efforts grew out of a great love for horror movies and thrillers. Since making GODS AND MONSTERS thirteen years ago, however, I've been yearning for a return to a story with Gothic overtones.
The wonderful world that Stephenie has created has obviously struck a chord with you, and I don't think it's difficult to see why. For me, her characters are simultaneously timeless, yet very modern. Rooted in a beautiful, real landscape with a great sense of place, Bella, Edward, Jacob, and the rest of the Forks/La Push menagerie, experience emotions that are primal, and universal: desire, despair, jealousy - and it all comes to fruition in BREAKING DAWN. This is a final chapter in the best sense; not just wide in scope and scale, but emotionally charged and intense throughout.
I'm a huge admirer of the already-iconic Kristen, Robert, and Taylor, and wanted to be the one to work with them as they face the challenges of bringing your beloved characters to the end of their journeys. Really, what could be more fun than that?
Please feel free to ask questions in the comments section below, and I'll do my best to answer them. I hope that this will be the first of many occasions I'll get to check in with you as we set to work bringing BREAKING DAWN to the screen. I am excited and grateful to have all of you alongside me for my TWILIGHT journey.
All best,
Bill Condon
P.S. Answer #1: No, there won't be any musical numbers.
First Look at Bon Ami
Yowza! This is the first official still from the upcoming film Bon Ami with Robert Pattinson and Uma Thurman. Christini Ricci and Kristen Scott Thomas are also in the period film:
“Bel Ami, based on the short story by Guy de Maupassant, is an erotically charged tale of ambition, power and seduction which chronicles the rise of Georges Duroy from poverty into the ‘beau monde’ of 1890’s Paris.
Using his wits and powers of seduction, Duroy moves from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties who inhabit where sex is power and celebrity an obsession, and where politics and media jostle for influence.”

Jonah Hex Trailer
Josh Brolin looks perfect for this. Michael Fassbender as a crazed minion of John Malkovich? Oh, yeah. Been waiting for this one and it comes out on my birthday!
The Stud Club Trilogy, by Tessa Dare
I think this book trailer is really inventive and creative. I read Tessa's first series and loved it.
I'm most intrigued by Rhys' story. Some of those angled closeups made the action figure heroes look quite haunted and expressive!
