Why Have I Never Seen This Before?
DID ANYONE ELSE KNOW THAT KATE WINSLET SINGS???
If you did, and never told me… well, shame on you!
I just found this clip while surfing YouTube. It features Kate singing a song called “What If”, which she sang for the 2001 animated flick Christmas Carol: The Movie.
Enjoy!
Kooky New Spoilers For Transformers 2 Hit Net?
Here’s the non-spoiler part of this post: Shia LaBeouf will ride a motorcycle in Transformers 2. Wow. And it might, just might!, be a robot in disguise., we’ll dive into the latest sp-sp-spoiler rumors for Transformers 2 courtesy of the Movie Blog. These spoilers center on odd things happening to LaBeouf’s character in the film, rather than the oddity that is Beetlejuice. Against better judgment, we’ll rank the following spoilers a 7/10 on the Slashfilm Privy Meter. If you’re already shellshocked by the amount of T2 info rolling in—aww—realize that you’re not alone. Feel free to express your exhaustion in the comments. From here on, venture down buzzkill beach at your own discretion…oh, and we’ve also included a pic of LaBeouf/Fox doing something on said motorcycle.
According to a tipster at MB, Shia’s character, Sam, possibly falls under the influence of a splinter he retained from the AllSpark that was destroyed in the original flick. The side-effects apparently hit him while he’s in a college astronomy class taught by Raiin Wilson’s professor.
“On the first day of class, Sam goes crazy just before getting to class for some reason. It seems there is some object that he was exposed to that affected him, our guess is the splinter from the cube. …[In class] Sam read [an entire text book] in five seconds by just flipping through it, then starts telling Wilson’s character about what parts of his book are wrong. He also starts talking about how Einstein was wrong. Sam gets up from his seat and goes up to the chalk board and starts writing a lot of weird symbols on the chalk board (probably Cryptonian).”
It’s said that the next time Sam goes to class, he’s still a little weird. He tells Megan Fox’s character, who’s apparently in possession of the splinter (or whatever it is), not to touch it for fear that it will do the same thing to her. If true, kind of kooky, kind of cool, eh? Somebody should make a YouTube montage of characters in movies who read entire books in just seconds.
Movie Chronicles got ahold of the following image below showing Shia and Fox sharing a “little spark” of their own. Heh heh zzz. Note the red motorcycle and Fox’s lusty arch.
Lindsay Lohan: Dinner with Sam Ronson
Lindsay Lohan: Dinner with Sam Ronson
Getting yet another dose of girl time, Lindsay Lohan was spotted having a casual dinner out last night with her girlfriend Samantha Ronson.
The “Mean Girls” actress sported a black leather jacket overtop a retro-80s Iron Maiden t-shirt along with a pair of her own signature line of leggings and a pair of black heels.
Earlier in the day, the crimson-haired hottie was spotted working it on the set of her latest acting gig “Labor Pains,” rocking yet another retro-80s t-shirt… this time it was from hair metal band Poison’s “Look What the Cat Dragged In” tour.
In the new flick, Lindsay plays an administrative assistant who fakes a pregnancy in order to avoid being fired from her job. The movie also stars Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Cheryl Hines and The Office’s Creed Bratton.
Kevin Smith Remembers George Carlin
In our obituary post last night, I mentioned how my favorite big screen performance of Carlin’s was in Kevin Smith’s Jersey Girl. Smith was a filmmaker who used Carlin in his films when available. Watching his few appearances, I’m shocked that his career in film never blew up. Smith takes a look back at the great comedy legend in a guest column for Newsweek:
“In 2001, George did me a solid when he accepted the part of the orally fixated hitchhiker who knew exactly how to get a ride in “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.” When he wrapped his scene in that flick, I thanked him for making the time, and he said, “Just do me a favor: Write me my dream role one day.” When I inquired what that’d be, he offered, “I wanna play a priest who strangles children.” It was a classic Carlin thing to say: a little naughty and a lot honest. I always figured there’d be time to give George what he asked for. Unfortunately, he left too soon. He was, and will likely remain, the smartest person I’ve ever met. But really, he was much more than just a person. Without a hint of hyperbole, I can say he was a god, a god who cussed.”
