Can't wait til this comes to the states!


New Gwyneth film also starring Joaquin Phoenix written and directed James Gray who also directed We Own the Night. So excited love her! Its a romantic drama set in Brooklyn about a guy (phoenix) who is torn between marrying a friend of the family or being with his hot volatile neighbor that he has a fixation for. Don't know when it debuts here but it is being shown at Cannes.

Since Kanye is Touring And All!

So Kanye is in my neck of the woods and I wish I were going on the tour. Although I wouldn't go through the extremes to get tickets as this person did on the radio. Haha check out this hilarious youtube clip of a woman who wanted the tickets a little too much and it cost her a little bit more than her pride. I promise you will not be disappointed.

New Reality Show Coming....Don't Get Too Excited!


So the CW is premiering a new show soon called Surviving the Filthy Rich....don't look away just yet it gets more interesting. Apparently the premise of the show is a newly graduated girl from Yale who has moved to NYC but her job falls through for her so she ends up taking up the challenge to get two insanely rich twin socialites into an Ivy league school...think Olsen twins but not so famous. If she succeeds she gets crazy moolah from the grandmama, and if she fails...well then the show will be even funnier I suppose. You'll have to tune in to see all the shenanigans go down because apparently the twins are not the brightest crayons in the box or the most behaved. I don't know if its worth watching more than once but I'm certainly curious.

Happy Mother's Day!


In honor of Mother's Day, Entertainment Weekly put together a list of top 20 movies to watch with your mom. While I disagree with alot of them...like Alien...umm my mom would think I was crazy to sit her down to watch that...other's were perfect...steel magnolia's, freaky friday, stuff like that. However if I had one piece of advice for any movie to watch with Mom...it would have to be any movie with Diane Keaton. I mean come on she is the MOVIE MOM. When I think who should be cast as someone's mom the top three that came to mind were Diane Keaton, Susan Sarandon, and Sally Field. So if any of those three lovely actresses are playing the role in the movie you plan to watch then I believe you're good to go. Just don't forget the tissues, chocolate/ice cream, and some fresh flowers.

Something to Look forward to in the Fall!


Heroes is slated to premiere its 3rd season on NBC on September 15th. That's not all the exciting news either! It will be a three hour episode of Heroes. The first hour will catch viewers up on the first two seasons and the next two hours will be the first episode of the season. It is also rumored that the season might have over 30 episodes as a relapse from the writers strike...either way I'm super excited to have this show back on the weekly line up of must see TV.

Speed Racer...Speeding quickly to DVD


Unfortunately not all comic book movies can be hits. Case in point: Speed Racer. The trailer hinted that this movie would not only very good but also would not do very well in theaters. It reportedly only made a little over $20 million in the States. Iron Man is still number one with $50 mill and in third is What Happens in Vegas, the Ashton Kutcher, Cameron Diaz film which took in $19 mill.
