Jerry O’Connell: The New Star of Nip/Tuck?
We’re not quite sure why Jerry O’Connell is being so shy here. After all, we’ve been amazed by his masculine physique ever since he lost the Stand by Me baby fat all those years ago.
And, seriously, how much of a complex can you really have when you’re married to the stunning Rebecca Romijn? Actually, scratch that.
In any event, you found this picture as amusing as we did, and it was tough to pick a winner out of these entries. But Amy edged to the top by being both funny and concise enough to fit in a headline. Thanks to all who participated and now let’s get a look at some of the excellent runners-up:
From Patrick: Jerry! It’s Head, Shoulders, KNEES and Toes…
From JR: I’m multitasking!!!
From chichi: This is the LAST time I forget my sports bra!
From Tiffany: Why yes, they are real.
From Tina: Jerry’s forecast: It’s gonna be a bit nippy
From CDF: I knew I should have gotten bigger implants!
From Okachobe: When they switch over to digital I won’t get any channels.
From Christina: Always make time for your self breast check!
From Mom: Keepin’ it clean for the kiddos.
Paramount Wants Star Trek Sequel; Transformers 2 to be Self Contained
Paramount is not only interested in another Star Trek sequel, but they are apparently trying to sign the contracts to bring the writers back for a follow-up
“I can give you a spoiler about the Studio’s state of mind (not about the movie itself). The spoiler is that they already want to lock us down to write the sequel,” co-writer Roberto Orci revealed to TrekMovie. “Take that as you will.
And by US, he means the entire team behind the new Star Trek film, including producer Damon Lindelof, executive producer Bryan Burk and director/producer JJ Abrams. But even Orci admits that no detailed discussions have yet to take place.
It’s previously been reported that main cast have options for two additional films, which is standard practice with any potential franchise contract now-a-days. I think it will all depend on next Summer’s opening weekend. Based on the production time-lines of Paramount’s other recent sequels, Transformers and Iron Man, its safe to speculate that a Trek sequel, if greenlit, could hit theaters as early as Summer 2011.
And speaking of Transformers, Michael Bay insists that Transformers 2 will be completely self contained. The sequel will not serve as a teaser for a third film - like Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest or The Matrix Reloaded.
“You know how those sequels they do the second one so you go see the third one? Transformers 2 is it,” Bay told MTV. “First one was just introducing, setting up stuff, so we can go a lot farther. Let’s just say [this] is not a lame sequel.” … “The robots are going to surprise a lot of people because we go with a lot of different levels.”
But that also doesn’t mean that audience demand won’t lead to a third film (actually, I’m pretty sure it might).
Disclaimer: Before you ask, the Transformers 2 teaser poster is a fan creation.
Nerd Alert: Mildly Epic New Star Wars Poster Drops
We're still not sure the all-animated Clones Wars counts as a real Star Wars movie, but this just-out one-sheet goes a long way toward making the case.
It gets close to that epic space opera vibe that defined all the classic illustrated posters. But then, where's the love interest? And the trademark ominous face of the villain?
At least Yoda's there. Yoda's cool. And the whole look of the movie, out Aug. 15, is pretty slick. The trailer debuts tomorrow on Cartoon Network, CNN and three other networks, so hopefully that means, like, more Yoda.
What do you think? Is the Force strong with this one?
"I’m Trying to Get My Black Bruce Willis On"
That's what Diddy told People this week while celebrating his new star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. We've been constantly impressed by shape-shifting entrepreneur Diddy as he's moved from multinamed record producer to hip-hop star to party monster to fashion designer to actor and several other things we've probably forgotten. And now, we salute his ambition to put in all the hard work necessary to become a movie star. He seems able to do it all. Our only qualm is with him getting racial all up in our facial, though he's clearly having fun with the idea. Because, pigmentation aside, being the next Diddy is a doozy in its own right. Besides, we have a sneaking suspicion that Bruce Willis may want to be the black Bruce Willis. And he's got first dibs.
