I don't care.. I love the song "Believe," and will always turn that beat up when I'm roll'n for hoes...

Sex and the City: Why you shouldn't be ashamed to call yourself a "Samantha"

Remember this Photoshop disaster??

Sex and the City might have ended in 2004, but it still impacts women in their early 20s today. Blame it on the Style Network, or blame it on the movies. Alas, I am not complaining, I often use the show to slide into a coma each night. Why? The show is well written, and the characters are pretty well developed (for the most part). Sex and the City is also a great break from the mind numbing reality trash television that I find myself obsessing over everyday. Which brings me to my first point: If you are a woman between the ages of 20-50, you have surely been asked this common question:

Just Another Reason To Love Alexander Skarsgard ...

The Grey: Expert Movie Review By Jan

Once again, Liam Nesson proves to us all that he is a Bad @ss Mother F&cker!

I want to start by saying that I loved this movie. It seems like most critics, surprisingly, agree with me. However, viewers are rating this film around 50 percent. Why is it getting rated around 50 percent? I am willing to bet, that if your "best movies of all time list" includes Transformers, Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull, or any of the Saw movies, you will not like this film. I would even go as far as saying that you will certainly hate this film, especially the ending. The Grey urges contemplation of man as the human animal, one suddenly cast into the wilderness where real beasts live and survive. And I will tell you one thing, this movie proves that man is definitely not always on top of the food chain.

Brandon Routh: Tall, Dark and Totally Unappreciated by Hollywood

A short while ago, I made the argument that in Hollywood, looks often win out over talent, despite the protests of Jessica Biel. (Again, shut the F*CK up, Jessica! You're not "too beautiful" to get roles. You don't get roles because your acting sucks a fat one and you have NO female fans because you won't ever shut your stupid fish-lipped mouth! But, I digress ...) 
What is truly baffling, though, is when an actor has both looks and talent and STILL slips through the cracks. We explored this problem when I lamented the lack of work for the lovely and talented Miss Emmy Rossum. Well, I'm bitching again, but this time, I'm lashing out on behalf of the lovely and talented Mr. Brandon Routh. 

The Iron Lady, more like Dementia and Deterioration !Epic Fail Ahead!

Did I mention I hate her face?

Today, I made the mistake of going to my local theater and seeing The Iron Lady. Even though I am not a huge Meryl Streep fan, I do enjoy movies about politics. I loved Lions For Lambs, while a majority of my friends wanted to leave 20 minutes into the film. In this case, I was highly disappointed with The Iron Lady, but surprised by Meryl Streep's performance. Dare I say ... she was not quite as annoying as usual. I was also very impressed with the basically unknown Alexandra Roach, who played a very convincing young Margaret Thatcher.

Vertically Challenged Hollywood Hotties!

Celebrities often appear much taller on the big screen than they are in real life. I would like to take this time today to point out a few surprisingly, and sometimes disappointingly, short Hollywood stars.

Robert Downey Jr. : 5'7"

Emmy Rossum = Freakin' Awesome!

It's really not a secret that in Hollywood, looks often win out over talent ... despite Jessica Biel's claims that she's "too beautiful" to get good roles (Let's all say it together, "Oh, shut the eff up already!"). This is particularly true with actresses in their 20s. How else would one explain why Jessica Alba, Megan Fox and Scarlett Johansson, among a SLEW of others, are able to stay consistently employed? It's certainly not because they're creating magic on-screen with their grasp of the arts, I can tell you that. 
So, with that in mind, we have to wonder why all these no-talent Barbie dolls are consistently snagging roles when we have beautiful women who actually possess talent out there. Yes, we have Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Rachel Squared (Weisz and McAdams), but they can't cover all the roles. So, how about another? Ladies and gentlemen, for your consideration ... Miss Emmy Rossum. 

Jared Leto's Transformation, or the Long Road Which Leads to the Mullet

This is one of Jared Leto's modeling photos from his high school days. What a demure lady he was.

Since the reaction to our last post about Jared Leto received such excellent feedback, I thought I would continue to entertain Meredith's idea by doing a post based on Jared Leto's physical transformation throughout the years. However, keeping with the fashion of my "bipolar" writing technique, I could not help but recognize someone else's face in the slew of Jared Leto's earlier photos. That person is Amanda Peet.

Woody Harrelson is a weirdo, but that's ok..

"No, no. He's a teetotaler. He's been in AA for a while, I don't have that kind of courage, nor am I a quitter."- Woody Harrelson outing New York Times reporter David Carr on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

Christian Bale vs. Kristen Bell: A career comparison

Back in October 2009, a funny thing happened. Kristen Bell was on the cover of Lucky Magazine. A copy of said magazine sat in the lobby of the clinic where Jan and I used to work. And, one day, a mutual friend of ours (who also was a clinic employee at the time) picked up the magazine, took a look at the cover and said, "God, I think Kristen Bell is SO overrated!"

To which one of our male co-workers replied, "You think so? Really? ... Huh. (Shaking head) I loved him in those Batman movies."

So, in honor of that interaction (which still makes me roar every time I recall it), let's see just exactly how Kristen and Christian stack up when they're going toe-to-toe, head-to-head, Kris. B vs. Chris. B. In the immortal words of Mills Lane, "Let's get it on!"

Behold! The Majestic Hoff!

The 12 Hates of Christmas: No. 1, Gwyneth Paltrow

I could not have said it better myself.

The 12 Hates of Christmas: No. 2, Kate Bosworth

There's a fairly obvious comment to be made here, but I won't do it. I'm a lady, after all.

Here at Somebody Thinks You're Fat ... Kate Bosworth has long been considered Public Enemy No. 1. Kate Effing Bosworth ... Just the name is enough to spark a firestorm of fury. Steady readers may remember viewing snippets about her in previous posts, most likely with the words "anorexic scarecrow" attached to her name in some form. You might think we've been a bit hard on ol' Kate. You might be thinking, "Why, oh why, do they passionately hate her? She seems like a sweetheart." Well ...

The 12 Hates of Christmas: No. 9, Jennifer Lopez



Jennifer Lopez has her "try face" on while completing a triathlon.

Jennifer Lopez began her career as a dancer on the television show In Living Color. She then moved to film and got her first leading role in Selena. And as far as we are concerned, she should had stopped while she was ahead. Instead of gracefully leaving the spotlight she continued to prove herself to be the proverbial "jack of all trades-master at none." In the entertainment business, this is NOT a compliment.

The 12 Hates of Christmas: No. 11, Katherine Heigl

Katherine Heigl looking hardcore..

Katherine Heigl is an American actress best known for her role in the horrific show Grey's Anatomy. She has also starred in films such as Knocked Up, Zyzzyx Road, 27 Dresses, The Ugly Truth, Killers, and Life As We Know It. All of said films were pretty bad. The one exception being Knocked Up. This is what Katherine Heigl had to say about her one decent film.:

WOW! Evil Dead Remake: April 12, 2013!

Anybody who knows me knows that Evil Dead, is one of my favorite movies. Because of this, I spent many drunken nights in college playing the Bruce Campbell Game with my friends. What is the Bruce Campbell Game? The game is easy: Every time Bruce Campbell gets hurt on screen, you drink. Playing this while watching Army of Darkness, ensures that you will be drunk in 15-20 minutes. I highly suggest using beer instead of liquor for your own safety (Do not try this at home).
