Hot Chick O' The Week #6 Vol. 2




Amber Heard stars in one of my favorite movies of all time Never Back Down starring Sean Faris, Cam Gigandet and Djimon Hounsou. It's actually not just about fighting - to be honest - it has a lot to do with loss and how you deal with it. Sean Faris' character loses his father when he lets him drive drunk (he was also in the car) and it brings out an anger in him that causes him to lose his shit.

Bring in the always anarchistic Cam Gigandet and you have Rocky 2000. I've always liked calling it the Rocky of 'our' Generation, but I don't know if that's true. It's not the greatest movie ever, but it's thoroughly enjoyable, has a decent soundtrack, and has decent acting. Leslie Hope - of 24: Season 1 - fame stars as Faris' mother.

Anyway, this flick stars Amber Heard, who is currently starring opposite Nicolas Cage in Drive Angry 3D which is a flick I never want to see, but she looks very fucking hot in the trailer, therefore it might be one of those things you have to see. She's also - apparently - a lesbian (as she's dating a female artist) - or Bisexual. On way or the other hot.

Isaacs joins "REM"

REM is being labeled an Inception-like pilot written by Kyle Killen, who wrote the amazing Lone Star that was incidentally canceled 2-episodes into it's season, has found it's star in Jason Isaacs. Isaacs is best well known for Harry Potter probably, but I remember him as the criminal brother in Brotherhood which aired on Showtime. It was a great show with a great cast, and ended prematurely.

Speaking of Movie Stars taking a turn towards television:

Maria Bello is planning on taking on the role made famous by Helen Mirren in Prime Suspect. This would be a US remake of a successful UK series.

Ashley Judd has been tapped to play the lead in ABC's Missing about a CIA Agent (Judd) who travels overseas to find her missing son.

Also, he's not a movie star, but Keifer Sutherland is returning to FOX in Tim Kring's new show Touch.

Unrelated note: Everyone should be watching Shawn Ryan's "
Chicago Code" on FOX. It airs Mondays at 9pm.

Hot Chick O' The Week #5 Vol. 2

I haven't really watched Mad Men all that much (even though I own seasons 1-3) and I vaguely remember January Jones from American Wedding, but she's starting to become a household name in Hollywood after taking a star-turn on Men. She's going to be seen this week in Unknown and soon as the White Queen/Emma Frost in X-Men First Class.

Hot Chick O' The Week #4 Vol. 2

Well, it's Thursday - oh well - but I guess life must go on.

This chick is married to Andy 'Tennis Superstar' Roddick, but mainly people know her because she's just plain smokin' hot. She's in the new Adam Sandler flick Just Go With It and was a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Model.
