Movie Reviews and Previews Hugh Jackman isn’t Bruce Willis You know that already. But it’s a good time to point it out, again, because for those of you who would argue that it’s not Bruce Willis’s fault, and not the celebrity’s fault, well…how come Hugh Jackman isn’t an asshole? I know you think By Lainey • Jul 24, 2013 12:02 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Cranston and Jackman Two decent men. Two wonderful actors. I thought it’d be a nice way to end another day of bad news. Here’s Hugh Jackman in London at the premiere The Wolverine. He’s awesome and generous and great at his job, all aspects of it, as usual. And here’ By Lainey • Jul 16, 2013 05:51 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jackman + Jakey The trailer for Prisoners, starring Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal, was released yesterday. Hugh’s daughter goes missing. He’s in a rage trying to find her. Jakey’s the cop on the case. Paul Dano’s the creep who probably isn’t the creep since they’re making him By Lainey • May 31, 2013 03:28 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Totally forgot about The Wolverine When Lainey asked if I wanted to write about The Wolverine’s new trailer, I had a moment of, “What is she talking about…?” and then I remembered Hugh Jackman’s new movie, due in July. But I forgot about it. I even wrote about the first trailer, and I By Sarah • May 22, 2013 10:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Hugh Jackman’s passion Is playing Wolverine. No seriously. It is. It’s his life’s work. And you know what? He’s really, really good at it. Jackman has been, even through the awfulness of X-Men 3 and the unspeakable horror of Wolverine: Origins, the perfect Wolverine. But the material was definitely going By Sarah • Mar 27, 2013 12:08 pm
Assy Style Worst Oscar Hair Date: Hugh Jackman & Deborra Lee-Furness I feel like an asshole. It takes an asshole to not throw anything but love towards Hugh Jackman. But that ponytail. Do we just ignore the ponytail? We first saw the ponytail in the etalk control room while watching the pool feed during arrivals and…well… it was a collective By Lainey • Feb 25, 2013 09:44 am
Oscars 2013 Annie to sing again As mentioned earlier, Anne Hathaway will perform as part of the Les Miserables ensemble at the Oscars on Sunday. Annie sings again at the Oscars! She sang two years ago when she co-hosted with James Franco. She sang four years ago when Hugh Jackman hosted and pulled her up on By Lainey • Feb 20, 2013 11:41 am
Oscars 2013 Is Hugh gaining on DDL? It was always a long-shot, my prediction that Hugh Jackman will win Best Actor for Jean Valjean in Les Miserables. If it were any other year, a non-DDL year, his chances would be a lot better. But, well, you know Daniel Day-Lewis. Still... I’m staying with my bet. And By Lainey • Feb 05, 2013 10:22 am
Golden Globes 2013 Globes Best “Babe”: Hugh Jackman Why doesn’t it sound cheesy and skeevy when Hugh Jackman says it? When he repeatedly refers to his wife as “babe” up on stage, why is it that he can do this without making us cringe? Oh the power of Hugh Jackman. But before we gush about Hugh Jackman, By Lainey • Jan 14, 2013 01:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The case against Les Miserables Many of you have emailed to fret about some of the reviews. Les Miserables is currently sitting at 72% on Rotten Tomatoes and 61% on Metacritic which doesn’t suck, no, but there have indeed been certain critics who’ve been vicious in their disdain: it’s so melodramatic, and By Lainey • Dec 24, 2012 01:13 pm
Anne Hathaway Annie and her underwear I’m not posting the pictures. It’s really not all that interesting to me. And, frankly, the suggestion that she did it on purpose for her Oscar campaign is... really dumb. How could that possibly, possibly be part of an Oscar campaign strategy...? Why would seeing pap shots of By Lainey • Dec 12, 2012 05:13 pm
Joaquin Phoenix 2012 according to The Actors And The Actor goes to... Well, definitely not Joaquin Phoenix. He did say he didn’t want any awards. And even though he backtracked - just a little - the Screen Actors Guild took him at his word. One of the best performances of the year and still, they were By Lainey • Dec 12, 2012 12:01 pm
Hugh Jackman When Hugh sings with Russell Russell Crowe has been performing with Alan Doyle in New York on the weekends and on Saturday night they were at Joe’s Pub and this time Hugh Jackman was in the house so Russell asked him up on stage for The Confrontation and ...I actually might like this version By Lainey • Dec 11, 2012 01:51 pm
Les Miserables Les Miserables: an underdog? The new issue of The Hollywood Reporter features Les Miserables -- its film history, the journey of this particular iteration under the direction of Tom Hooper, the production, and the cast. The story that’s told, at least at the beginning of the article, Nate Silver reference notwithstanding, is that By Lainey • Dec 05, 2012 05:36 pm
Les Miserables Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean As mentioned yesterday, I screened Les Miserables in New York on the weekend but reviews are embargoed until closer to the release date. We are allowed however to post reaction to the film. My reaction is that I ugly-cried HARD. And that I love Hugh Jackman. People keep talking about By Lainey • Dec 04, 2012 04:14 pm
Style Catwoman, Wolverine, and Red Riding Hood At the premiere of my favourite movie of the year in Tokyo tonight as they make their way around the world, closer and closer to Christmas Day, as we wait impatiently ...
