Jennifer's Body: violent girl's thoughts

Amanda Seyfried and Megan Fox in "Jennifer's Body" (2009).

"Megan Fox is dripping with blood all over her mouth and hands in this new still from her upcoming female-empowerment slash pic Jennifer’s Body (per Entertainment Weekly).“It’s not a straight horror film by any means”, says director Karyn Kusama (Girlfight). “It has a lot of emotional girl relationship stuff.”Screenwriter (and EW columnist) Diablo Cody (Juno) also tells the mag, “I was involved in the typical adolescent love triangle, and I found myself having incredibly violent thoughts about this girl. I just thought, ‘If she goes near my boyfriend, I’m going to rip out her throat’. Source: justjared.buzznet.com

"It may be called Jennifer's Body but the person I'm most interested in seeing on the big screen reciting Diablo Cody's snappy dialogue is Jennifer's friend Needy, played by Amanda Seyfried. If anyone can keep it real, it's Amanda. So it's nice to see a few shots of her mixed in with all the ones we've gotten of the film's star Megan Fox". Source: www.dreadcentral.com

Mischa Barton under psychiatric evaluation

"Mischa Barton, currently hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles under psychiatric evaluation, known as a 5150 hold, could be released as early as Saturday, or held longer, experts say"."A 5150 is considered a psychiatric emergency, when a person is deemed a danger to themselves, to others or is gravely disabled," explains L.A.-based psychiatrist Daniel B. Borenstein, M.D., who's not involved in the case. "A serious risk of suicide is a primary reason for the hold, as well as those suffering from severe depression or schizophrenia."

A person under a 5150 is typically held for three days, during which time the patient undergoes evaluation and receives treatment – although medication can't be forcibly given". Source: www.people.com

"I wish her all the best. First and foremost, we want her to get healthy again," Homecoming producer Austin Stark tells PEOPLE. "It's obvious we'd like her to support the movie and be here, but we hope she gets better."

And of shooting Homecoming with Barton in Pittsburgh, Stark says, "When she was on-set, she acted like a professional. I honestly had no complaints. She struck me as a nice young girl, she never said anything mean to anyone, and she wasn’t late on-set or anything like that."Her rep declined to comment on the report of her going to a psych ward, but tells PEOPLE, "Mischa has been hospitalized per the recommendation of her doctor and is resting in the hospital".

"Mischa Barton's fame came about by accident in many ways, she recalls, as her path became altered by a fateful audition. "I was one of those kids who was willing to try other things, other careers, and go to college. I just happened to get cast on The OC, but I was never set on it." Her character would eventually die in a car crash, and the series itself crashed and burned 6 months later. Mischa Barton's success and popularity has segued into a movie career and has even turned the glamorous star into a fashion icon of sorts". Source: www.girl.com.au

-"Donnie Darko" is considered a cult film in the US, but were you disappointed in terms of your career that it didn't do better at the American box office?

-The truth is most of the films that make a lot of money no one remembers, and I'm not interested in making films that no one remembers. Whether it means they hated it so much they'll never forget it, or if it means they loved it so much that they won't. I'm less interested also in how it affects a career. The advice I've been given by a lot of people is: don't jump in too fast, do the things that you care about, and see what happens then.

"Says Jake Gyllenhaal, who delved deep into the unsettling mind of Donnie Darko to take on the tour de force role, "Donnie's a teenager like a lot of teenagers who starts out completely unsure of where he fits in the world, or if he fits at all. But through an incredible experience he comes to truly understand who he really is and the effect he has on other people, which takes him on a fantastic journey through dreams, sadness, comedy and madness."

Sword-fighting Prince of Persia

"For Jake Gyllenhaal, playing Prince Dastan in Jerry Bruckheimer's epic Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, due May 28, 2010, was a chance to get into some serious action. (Paparazzi photos of Gyllenhaal on-set have appeared previously, but this is the first official shot of him in character.) "I'm tired of taking myself so seriously," says the actor, who found himself sword-fighting, climbing walls, and jumping off of buildings as part of the prince's quest to find an enchanted dagger and turn back time. "It's nice when a stuntman turns to you and is like, 'Actors don't normally do this.'"

Lindsay Lohan as Marilyn in Vogue Spain

"Aunt Sue was decked out in turbans, long false eyelashes, huge golden hoop earrings and the latest in plastic surgery until the day she died, at age 96 (she didn’t look a day over 70). She took glee in sharing Marilyn Monroe’s more intimate fashion tips. “After all, she was the sexiest woman who ever lived”, she told us.According to Aunt Sue, Marilyn wore everything one size too small, so that she would appear to be on the verge of bursting out of her clothes at any moment. Tight outfits gave Marilyn an aversion to underwear, because Visible Panty Line (VPL) is definitely NOT sexy. My aunt knew all this because Marilyn had very little confidence in her ability to dress herself and would often roll out of bed, then run down to my aunt’s wardrobe department, to be dressed in the appropriate attire for lunch with a studio executive or an interview with a journalist".

Mechner at Comic-Con for Prince of Persia

"I’ll be in San Diego next Friday for an 11:30 am Q&A panel about the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time graphic novel anthology I’m writing for Disney, with artists Todd McFarlane, Cameron Stewart, Bernard Chang, Tommy Lee Edwards, Josh Middleton, and Niko Henrichon, many of whom will be on the panel as well. (Check the Comic-Con schedule for updated details.)

It’s been a very cool project and one I’ve had a lot of fun doing. The book is a prequel to the movie (I use the word “prequel” advisedly, for those who think time is like a river that flows swift and sure in one direction), with each chapter drawn by a different artist in a different style. It’ll be published next April as part of the Prince of Persia movie pre-launch.

This is the second Prince of Persia graphic novel I’ve been involved with — the first, written by A.B. Sina and illustrated by LeUyen Pham and Alex Puvilland, was published last year by First Second Books — and they’re very different projects".

"Not to nit pick, but there has been some footage released from this movie and Jake Gyllen-I-have-the-greatest-six-pack-ever-haal is dressed as the Prince from the game's sequel, "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within." Why specifically call the movie "Sands of Time" and then dress him in the style of a different title? Just call the movie "Prince of Persia: We Didn't Play Any of the Games, But We Liked the Box-Cover Art and You Should Just Be Happy We're Making a Movie About Any of Them at All, Nerd."

"Burned Rain" poem

José Luis, my only true love (*crossing my fingers* forever).
Me, feeling native in my hometown Zaragoza's streets again.
(uggh, I hate my yellow teeth, I guess I should use white crests or something!)

I want to dedicate to all of you, weirdos, and José Luis, an old poem I wrote time ago and which was published in two of my local city literary university magazines: "Aquisgrán" and "Calibán" (based on la Isla de Calibán), this poem was attached to a short story titled "Terrestre". My three main tales that became a trilogy were: "Terrestre", "El Tubo de Braun" (with echoes of "Network") and "Ciudad Carrusel".

This poem is entitled: "LLUVIA QUEMADA" (its translation in English would be "Burned Rain"):

"Lluvia quemada incendiando el océano helado,
El sonido invadiendo la línea,
Imagen de pantano en la retina del mago
La nieve estrellada en cosmos colgante,
Girando como un hombre en los muelles trotantes
De una sola certeza.
Una vez estuvo allí,
habían abierto su cabeza,
sus ojos, chinchetas fluorescentes,
daban vueltas incontables al amor.
Tarde y noche en las ferias.
Su cuerpo, gigantesco poster,
se mecía. Noche y tarde en las ferias.
Una derrota con piel de foto.
Volveremos a las líneas
de las playas rojas azuladas,
amapolas de mar, ciudad invertida,
Allí no habrá despedida".
