Malin Akerman in The Lab Magazine (2011) Malin Akerman is interviewed by Paul Rudd for “The Lab” magazine Issue #3!

"Lohan was set to play Lovelace, but has since been replaced by Malin Akerman — who has apparently found that the Internet is her best friend while researching the life of a famous porn star.“I’ve been studying a lot about battered women and we all have that big question mark as to why they stay in the relationship and why they don’t leave and it’s so complex”, Akerman told E! Online on Thursday night. “I’ve been reading a lot on the internet… Google is a fantastic thing.” Source: www.movieline.com

Memorable ex-porn stars:
Linda Susan Boreman (January 10, 1949 – April 22, 2002), better known by her stage name Linda Lovelace. In the late 1960s, she began a relationship with Chuck Traynor. Her breakthrough came with the feature "Deep Throat" (1972). Surprisingly, the film became a runaway hit, playing to sell-out crowds in "respectable" cinemas; it is still considered the quintessential adult film of all time. In 1980, she re-emerged as the author of "Ordeal", her controversial autobiography. She fell in with the radical feminist movement, testifying before the Meese Commission on the supposed dangers of pornography.

Jenna Jameson (born Jenna Marie Massoli on 9th April, 1974) is an American entrepreneur and former pornographic actress was called "The Queen of Porn". She started acting in erotic videos in 1993 after having worked as a stripper and glamour model. Jameson also crossed over into mainstream pop culture, starting with a minor role in Howard Stern's 1997 film "Private Parts", guest-hosting stints on E! Her 2004 autobiography, "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale", was six weeks as The New York Times' Best Seller.

"Jenna Jameson also issued a stern warning to any porn stars involved with controversial actor Charlie Sheen. According to Radar Online, the “Two-And-A-Half Men” star recently spent time in Las Vegas with a “revolving door” of porn star pals.
"Run! Run! Screaming! I think I might have been one of the very first girls in the (porn) ring. He stalked me, and it wasn't good", she laughed. "So I would say run screaming!"Jameson said she is currently penning the sequel to her New York Times best-seller "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale," which she assured us will be filled with just as much juicy stuff as the first".

5 questions for Robert Pattinson - USA Today Interview

Robert Pattinson in USA Today


USA Today Interview: 5 questions for Robert Pattinson


Water For Elephants TV Spot

"He's very much a 24-year-old guy who has a girlfriend and is enjoying himself and his friends," Witherspoon says.

It's hard to convince the fans of that: When paparazzi caught Pattinson kissing Stewart last week after the Elephants premiere, the blogosphere exploded.
"I just don't like it," Pattinson says; the rabid attention has forced him to unload his L.A. home and instead live out of hotels. "That's not part of my job. It's embarrassing, people using your life as entertainment.
"If people are already using your life as entertainment and they get their fill in magazines, they're never going to see your movies."
Aside from answering an interviewer's question, he vents only to his parents. "They always think I'm completely depressed because I don't really say it to anyone else. So they always think (being famous) is the most miserable experience in the world. They're funny. Whenever I sort of complain about it, they go, 'Well, just quit. What are you talking about, if you hate it so much?' "
Cue his explosively hot career.
"You've just got to remember why you're doing it in the first place — which is quite hard sometimes," he says, chatting about his next projects, Cosmopolis with Paul Giamatti, "a departure from everything I've done," and period piece Bel Ami, which has no release date set.

And so the circus, aided by a bit of technology, must go on.
"The only time I ever follow Twitter is if I'm in a restaurant or something, just before I leave, to see if people are waiting outside. It does make you a bit of a loser, especially when someone asks you, 'Hey, you want to go to dinner at this place?' and I'm like, 'Can we have dinner at this (other) place? It has three exits'.

Marley Shelton is a nice addition to "Scream 4"

Marley Shelton as Dr. Dakota Block in "Planet Terror" (2007)

"I feel like some old-school screen diva when I talk about this stuff, but I've been watching dailies lately, and I realize that my eyes are kind of...large. If I turn them too far, I look like I'm possessed."
-Marley Shelton


Jake Gyllenhaal and Marley Shelton as Jimmy Livingston and Chloe in "Bubble Boy" (2001)

"The film is well paced, well shot and and has a fantastic supporting cast, including Anthony Anderson (Transformers, The Departed), Allison Brie from TV's Mad Men and Community, Adam Brody (Thank You for Smoking, Cop Out), Mary McDonnell (Independence Day, Donnie Darko), Marley Shelton (Sin City, Grindhouse), Kristen Bell (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Fanboys) and Anna Paquin (Almost Famous, X-Men).
Scream 4 offers something new, while not deviating too far from the formula. While overall it reminded me of Scream 2, it is not quite as strong as the original two films". Source: media.www.thejtac.com

“Scream 4″ opens with one of those oh-so-clever (but at this point, expected) movie within a movie within a movie gags, and features cameos aplenty from big names in small roles. Kristen Bell and Anna Paquin show up in essentially one-scene-one-kill appearances, probably because they grew up on the first three “Scream” movies and just wanted to get in on the action. An amusing Mary McDonnell is wasted as Jill’s mom, but Marley Shelton as Dewey’s comely Deputy is a nice addition. “Community’s” Alison Brie is also deliciously bitchy as Sidney’s PR flack, while Culkin and Knudsen, as the A/V geeks, are just irritating. Most of the characters in “Scream 4″ are disposable, with most of them meeting gruesome, audience-endearing ends.
There’s a reason the previous “Scream” movies continue to pull in new audiences, and “Scream 4″ is no different. It’s the kind of movie that you enjoy watching with some friends and then introducing new people to. The franchise’s main selling point -its biggest draw -is that it confirms its core audience’s opinions of themselves as clever horror movie buffs. Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott in "Scream 4" (2011)

In any case, longtime fans of the franchise will enjoy watching the new bloods spill theirs (in buckets and gushers, oh my) while still appreciating Williamson’s careful, even reverential handling of Sidney. Sure, “Scream 4″ is basically more of the same, but it LOOKS newer, and it’s still as clever as you are, so let’s not dig too deep, alright?" Source: www.influence-film.com

In the clip, the girls confirmed that they got weird phones calls,asking them what’s their favorite scary movie. Kirby (Hayden Panettiere) said it was a killer’s voice from Sydney’s life story. Then Kirby said she didn’t get a call,but the other two girls did,and started to wonder if that meant she’s next to die.

"Gyllenhaal gave me a little helping hand during this interview. We only get a few minutes, I ran out. But I quickly realized I hadn’t asked a Portland question that he and I had been talking about before the interview started. He told me to just keep going even though everyone else in the room was ready to move on". Source: thescorecardreview.com

Robert Pattinson and Pachyderms in 'WATER FOR ELEPHANTS'

Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon, co-stars in "Water for Elephants" (2011)


When we spoke with Pattinson, he talked about working with his other co-star, Rosie the elephant; how he's feeling more comfortable as an actor; and how he will look back at the "Twilight" movies now that "Breaking Dawn" is almost ready to wrap. Take a look at the video, and let us know if you're looking forward to seeing Pattinson in "Water For Elephants."

Jake Gyllenhaal in "Source Code", one of his best roles since "Zodiac"

Jake Gyllenhaal as Robert Graysmith in "Zodiac" (2007)

"Jake Gyllenhaal stars -- in his best role since Zodiac -- as Captain Colter Stevens. He begins the movie by suddenly waking up on a train. The last thing he remembers, he was flying a helicopter in the Middle East. What's even weirder is that the girl across the seat from him, Christina Warren (Michelle Monaghan) seems to know him and keeps calling him "Sean". Source: www.combustiblecelluloid.com

"Jake Gyllenhaal looks every bit the part of the earnest, young Captain Colter Stevens who recently completed the final mission of his career in Afghanistan, the reason for which is progressively revealed during the course of the film. However, his most earnest desire is to connect with his father to patch up a rift created by an argument before he left for Afghanistan. The promise to assist him in contacting his father is the carrot that Goodwin uses to keep Stevens motivated, and Gyllenhall’s performance is especially affecting during these scenes".

Michelle Monaghan and Jake Gyllenhaal play Christina and Colter Stevens in "Source Code" (2011), directed by Duncan Jones

"Source Code connects effectively with the disorientation of a soldier who doesn't know where he is or even who he is, much less what his mission is supposed to be. Played by the puppy-eyed Jake Gyllenhaal, the last thing he remembers is flying a helicopter in Afghanistan; now he's on a commuter train to Chicago, sitting across from a friend he doesn't know and eight minutes away from being blown to smithereens. Working from Ben Ripley's script, Jones slowly brings the details of Gyllenhaal's situation into focus. Though his real name is Capt. Colter Stevens, Gyllenhaal spends the eight minutes on the train wired into the conscience of one of the bombing victims. The victim's confused friend is Christina, played by the ebullient Michelle Monaghan, and the woman on the monitor is Goodwin (Vera Farmiga), who acts as Colter's guide through his extraordinarily stressful ordeal. He's a man with a chance to save lives by identifying a terrorist before he kills again. But he is still stuck on a loop, no matter how hard he himself tries to live past his allotted time.
Forced to relive that harrowing eight minutes over and over in the search for bomb and bomber, Stevens falls in love with Christina (Michelle Monaghan), a passenger who dies each time in the explosion.
The more confusing Source Code remains, the better it is. Jones and Ripley align the audience closely with their hero, withholding revelations until he discovers them himself. His trauma has the greatest possible impact that way: Not only is this man doomed to relive the same patch of time over and over again, but every eight-minute cycle ends with an explosion that kills every passenger — and that he can't stop".
