Movie Reviews and Previews She’s with the Avengers With just under a month until it opens on May 1, Marvel has released the final trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron. Despite a steady stream of trailers, TV spots, and featurettes, they’ve done a really good job recycling footage so that they haven’t given the whole movie By Sarah • Apr 07, 2015 11:33 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Scott Eastwood makes that face I’ll say it again… I am not a believer in Scott Eastwood. To me he’s like the Iggy Azalea of heartthrobs. It’s been like this from the very beginning, when everyone got hard over him because of some photo shoot. Not interested. And then a few weeks By Lainey • Apr 07, 2015 09:49 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Furious 7’s first weekend $147 million domestically over the weekend… I want to like Furious 7, I really do, because in theory this is the kind of dumb fun action movie I cut my teeth on. But Furious 7, though wildly successful and spurring the franchise to new heights, actually shows exactly what’s By Sarah • Apr 06, 2015 03:34 pm
Bad Style Justin Theroux’s short sleeves Justin Theroux has been in Rome with Ben Stiller working on Zoolander 2. He wrote the screenplay. So if it’s more Tropic Thunder than Rock Of Ages, can we continue to be optimistic? Anyway… Arms, right? All you’re seeing here is arms. This is helped by the fact By Lainey • Apr 06, 2015 11:27 am
Xenu Hey La Luh La, it’s Tom Cruise Tom Cruise and son Connor were in Tampa, Florida last night watching the NCAA Women’s Final Four Semi featuring Maryland and Connecticut. Tom’s been in London for several months working on Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation. The movie opens July 31st. So I hope they’re done shooting. Because By Lainey • Apr 06, 2015 09:51 am
Media Manipulation Michael & Alicia Easter in New York It’s been a while since we’ve had any new pap shots of Michael Fassbender. When he shows up though, he doesn’t disappoint. Here he is in New York on Saturday with Alicia Vikander. They fell in love last year in Australia while shooting The Light Between Oceans. By Lainey • Apr 06, 2015 08:35 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Taylor Lautner in Tracers There was a moment when watching Tracers that I thought it wasn’t half bad, and was sort of surprised that I wasn’t outright hating it. It gets off to a slow start, but once it gets going it’s kind of like if 1990s rollerblading classic Airborne and By Sarah • Apr 02, 2015 05:48 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Simon Pegg and the Lesser Lesser Hemsworth in Kill Me Three Times I’m a big fan of Simon Pegg and I want to like everything he does but sometimes—no. Australian black comedy Kill Me Three Times is the latest “Simon, I love you, but just no” (previous examples include Hector and the Search for Happiness and A Fantastic Fear of By Sarah • Apr 02, 2015 04:53 pm
TV Updates Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig are making a Lifetime movie This is not a joke. The movie, expected to air this summer, is about a couple who take care of a pregnant woman in the hopes of adopting her baby only to have it all go horribly awry. It’s described as a “wink” at the genre, the genre being By Sarah • Apr 02, 2015 02:06 pm
Quiveration Deadpool’s hot guy Ryan Reynolds is currently shooting Deadpool in Vancouver. His character’s face is all scarred up. I know nothing about Deadpool. Maybe Sarah will come at me with some nerd facts but so far, for a nerd, she’s been surprisingly not that interested in the Deadpool thing. That might By Lainey • Apr 02, 2015 01:31 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Rihanna is the best part of Home It’s impossible to get upset at a movie like Home, one aimed squarely at small children, so despite the fact that it’s boring and obnoxious in turns and is thoroughly second-rate, the tots in the audience—and I mean the little ones around 5-7 years—will probably be By Sarah • Apr 02, 2015 12:46 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Vin Diesel Day Yesterday wasn’t just April Fool’s Day. It was also the day Vin Diesel’s hand and footprints were immortalised at the Chinese theatre, followed by the premiere of Furious 7. He’s the man! I don’t like this phrase. It’s so corny. Like you’re supposed By Lainey • Apr 02, 2015 12:13 pm
Maple Leaf Ryan’s April Fool’s lunch Ryan Gosling stepped out in LA to meet some friends for lunch yesterday. In that outfit, with the facial hair, he looks like he’s been in a dark room for days. Is that a euphemism for dealing with an infant? Ryan’s directorial debut, Lost River, opens in a By Lainey • Apr 02, 2015 10:24 am
Movie Reviews and Previews James Marsden rides the D Train I know there are a few of you out there who are into James Marsden, but he doesn’t leave a lot of openings, as it were. So enjoy him, looking super hot in a douchebaggy way, in the new trailer for The D Train, a comedy with Jack Black By Sarah • Apr 01, 2015 12:14 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews “It was hard to know who was more crazy” A new Mad Max: Fury Road trailer was released yesterday. Whoever is cutting these previews needs an award. Because they get better, and better, and better. And each one is different. With a different purpose. But gives away just enough to make you impatient and not too much to make By Lainey • Apr 01, 2015 10:22 am
Xenu Intro for April 1, 2015 Dear Gossips, So about Going Clear which aired on HBO on Sunday… Haven’t written about it because I haven’t seen it. And I haven’t seen it because it didn’t air in Canada. Canadian distributors have decided instead to give the film a proper theatrical run starting By Lainey • Apr 01, 2015 09:18 am
