Keira Knightley Caused World War II?
A clip of Keira Knightley getting all vocal in her latest movie, The Edge of Love, has found its way online. Apparently it is Keira singing, not some stand in, and it is actually quite good. It’s better than Scarlett Johansson’s attempt anyway.
However, half way through her performance a voice announces that England is at war with Germany. Whether that has anything to do with Keira Knightly and her singing ‘Blue Tahitian Moon’ I don’t know. Could it be that Hitler had had enough of her voice? We’ll have to see the film to find out I guess!
Update: Its good to see her fans enjoyed it anyway. 23 year old YouTuber ’sherieofthecaribbean’ says:
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG x a million

New Amsterdam: Legacy - VIDEO
(S01E06) Nice to see a little more personal information about the other characters. I was curious when we would get to meet the famous Eddie Marquez. Nestor Serrano is one of my favorite character actors and he’s a good choice for the role. My only worry is that Eva’s “Papa Don’t Preach” routine is already wearing thin.
Not that you can really blame her for being so pissed off all the time. In this episode alone, there were numerous occasions where John worked the case by himself. If I found out my partner was more willing to discuss the case with his dog than with me, I’d be pretty bent out of shape about it too.
When John was pleading his case to Dr. Sarah over the phone, I wondered if he was more concerned with finding his “true love” or if he has started falling for her. I, honestly, think that someone who had lived most of his life in New York for 400 years would be a little jaded and therefore less concerned with having a relationship. That begs the question, how does John find so many women who are so willing to understand his situation?
Since last week’s episode showed us what a sad drunk John was, it seems to make more sense that he was a real douchebag in his more distant past. His speech to his son about the connection we make through art was so weak, it was clearly just an attempt to excuse his pedantic rants and ignore his crappy parenting. Is it any wonder that he has such strong feelings about the dead kid?
Did my eyes deceive me or has Giancarlo Esposito actually deigned to return to television as another cop? I’m a big fan of Esposito’s, I remember once I saw him in my neighborhood and I took the time to tell him how much I liked him on Homicide. He seemed really grateful for the compliment, which made me me feel kind of bad considering it wasn’t true. As soon as his character showed up, I realized what this show was missing. The requisite federal cop who knows something is strange about John and is determined to find out. The Sarah Conner Chronicles has Richard T. Jones, Journeyman had Paul Schulze, so now New Amsterdam has Agent Lawson.
Watching this show is like dating a girl I can’t break up with. I’m really interested in John’s past and all the different lives he’s led but the cop stories are so formulaic they make me want to turn the channel. Do we really need to see John and Eva getting ignored in Chinatown? They might as well have used a script from an old episode of NYPD Blue.
While we’re discussing clichéd cop show elements, I have revisited my thinking about the new Sergeant. While she’s easy on the eyes, her character is too underdeveloped to be so irritating.
Is it just me or did the evidence that John is related to the crime family come a little too easily? He makes a visit to the family brewery and voilà! There’s his painting on the wall along with an explanation from his descendant and John didn’t react at all. If he was so sure that he was related to these guys, why did he make such a fuss researching it? These are the kinds of inconsistencies that make the show tough to watch.
By the end of the episode, I really couldn’t care about the police story and I was barely interested in the rest of the show. If Alexie Gilmore hadn’t shown up again, I probably would have dozed off.
Nip/Tuck: August Walden
(S05E13) “Wait… you met your father?” - Matt
This is the way I remember Nip/Tuck. Hands down, best episode of the season right here. Controversial, all the main characters played a big role, and best of all? It was funny! The one thing that depressed me was the very end. Why? Because of that ridiculous “future” episode from last season, we know Julia can’t die.
Perhaps it makes me a terrible person, but it sure was fun to watch her suffer. She’s just so whiny. You wonder where Matt gets his neediness from? Take one look at his mother.
You’ve got to hand it to Christian though. He can’t just break up with Julia. He has to invite her over for lunch to make sure she sees him screwing another woman “he picked up at the gas station.” What an ass. Here’s the thing though. Julia acted appalled! How is something like this unexpected? This is the type of cold hearted stuff that he’s known for pulling. Couple that in with Julia’s discovery of the source of her illness, and she didn’t exactly have the greatest day. Eden had been poisoning her with mercury. Julia found out… Eden shot her with Julia’s own gun. End of episode and what an ending it was. Eden is clearly nuts and this episode proved it. From sex crazed, plaid skirt wearing school girl, to raunchy porn star/wannabe murderer, Eden is definitely one of the better characters this show has introduced.
And speaking of new characters, how about Emmy? All I could do was cheer Matt on once it fell apart with him and Rachel. He hopped in the sack with Emmy right away and for once, it seemed like he might have actually found himself a normal relationship. How could I have assumed that after the giant clue from the “previously on” scenes? It showed clips of every crazy b*tch he’s ever been with — Eva, Cherry, Ariel, and Kimber. Add in Rachel too. He’s doomed and Emmy was no exception. How did she find Christian as an option for her plastic surgeon? Emmy’s the result of a one night stand Christian had many years ago in Cleveland, Georgia. All I can say is “wow.” Honestly, really great twist. Christian is her father and she’s sleeping with Matt. In true Nip/Tuck fashion, they’re justifying the incest because… hey, the sex was really good. Transvestites, white supremacists, ex-porn stars, severe burn victims, and now half-siblings. Who hasn’t Matt slept with?
Moving on to Sean, I really liked the plot with him and August Walden, the TV reviewer from Entertainment Weekly. The whole ordeal sort of re-positioned Sean as the caring and understanding guy that he used to be before he got consumed by Hollywood. While it was a little corny, the ending was expected when the victim of one of Walden’s scathing reviews poured boiling coffee all over his face. I was surprised that no one had attacked him sooner. For a while, it even crossed my mind that Sean might try and “accidentally” mess something up during Walden’s extensive surgery as a bit of payback. No such luck though.
More thoughts…
- Where had Olivia been? How could she have not known that Julia was having an affair with Christian?
- I sort of hope that Emmy turns out not to be Christian’s daughter. Matt could use some good news.
- Is it to be expected that so many doctors misdiagnosed Julia? None of them had hair or blood or urine samples analyzed for any sort of toxins? I’m sure some liberties were taken, but if it’s even remotely close to that… I hope I never get mercury poisoning.
- You could have played a drinking game with this episode. Every time someone said “ugly,” take a gulp.
So next week is the seasons finale (officially) and it’ll be interesting to see if it ends with a decent twist or cliffhanger, since it wasn’t the intended bookend. However, it looks like the final eight season five episodes (whenever they get shot) will end up being a new sixth season as I predicted would happen long ago. The big question? Will this count towards the three season renewal that Nip/Tuck earned a year ago, or does this mean we get eight seasons now?
