Electronic Cigarette vs Real smoking

Lizabeth Scott

“It's easy to quit smoking. I've done it hundreds of times”
-Mark Twain


"Unveiled recently to TMZ, the NicoSheen product will feature the actor's signature smirk on packages of disposable E-cigarettes and related products. Sheen is one of several partners in the new line, another being his oft-troubled friend, former baseball player Lenny Dykstra.
The e-cigarettes are the latest product to seal Sheen's endorsement. He's previously made deals for comic books, an energy drink, his own line of official merchandise with his famous catchphrases on shirts, mugs and Twitter sponsorships". Source: www.hollywoodreporter.com

"There are parts of me that are Dennis Hopper" -Charlie Sheen (smoking cigars was one of them!)

"If you see Natalie send along this message
You may not need this world
But this world needs you here"


Song "If you see Natalie" by The Eels

"Now I use an electronic cigarette. I know it's ridiculous, but it's helping me not to actually smoke real cigarettes. You feel like you are smoking, and you get to exhale but it's just water vapor and not nicotine. I've been doing it for six months. Smoking sucks!"

Baz Luhrmann : 'Moulin Rouge' could have starred Heath Ledger, Jake should do a musical


Jake Gyllenhaal at Late Night With Jimmy Fallon (2010 Skit)

"Jake should do a musical", Luhrmann said. "He's a wonderful actor, but [he has a] great voice, tremendous voice. He sang some [Stephen] Sondheim for me, complicated singing, great voice. When is he going to guest on 'Glee?' "

Luhrmann went on to talk about Courtney Love's involvement with the film, as a potential actress and as the widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain.
"Courtney had two parts to the process," he revealed. "I worked with Courtney. She was fascinating, she was beguiling. Also, without Courtney's approval, we would never have [Nirvana's] 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' in 'Moulin Rouge,' and I had to go and show her the whole piece," he said. "She's absolutely fantastic. I adore her spirit. She's wild and unpredictable and a great performer."

Joseph Gordon-Levitt talks "Hesher", "Looper" Interview

"At first when Hesher appears to the boy, it’s unclear if he’s even real or just a figment of T.J.’s imagination, sparked by trauma and a need for a friend/scapegoat. He’s equal parts Drop Dead Fred, Tyler Durden and Frank the Bunny from “Donnie Darko.” He literally invades the kid’s home and starts squatting there.
Add to those he appears to one hopelessly hapless supermarket checkout girl (Natalie Portman, doing the “ugly” thing), who also comes to the rescue of T.J. one day. She questions her own worth as a hero, though, admitting that her good deed was selfish, something to make herself feel and look good. She predictably comes between the boy and his new angel/devil hybrid, because Hesher seems to bring out the worst in people on the way to lifting them up".

GORDON-LEVITT: I’m beyond excited about Looper as well. We just finished shooting it a few weeks ago. I truly think it’s very special. I’ve never done a job like that movie before. It’s something really unique in my life and work. It’s written and directed by Rian Johnson who made Brick and The Brothers Bloom. I got to play opposite Bruce Willis who’s someone I’ve always admired whether it’s Die Hard or Pulp Fiction. Emily Blunt is also really awesome in it. Yeah, man, it’s going to be a really good movie. You have good reason to be excited". Joseph Gordon-Levitt:

0:30 – Explains why doesn’t like to discuss his personal take on the ending to Inception
1:20 – Talks about preparing for his role in Hesher
2:25 – Discusses the rehearsal process for the film
3:00 – Talks about how excited he is for Rian Johnson’s Looper
3:55 – Will he be back as Cobra Commander in G.I. Joe 2?
4:05 – Provides an interesting comparison/contrast between Christopher Nolan and Hesher writer/director Spencer Susser

“I think the first. It was the most fun to shoot”, he wrote, adding, “The second also because there wasn’t as much craziness yet…”

Rob first met his on and off-screen lover, Kristen Stewart, when they screen tested for the films at director Catherine Hardwicke‘s house and had amazing chemistry.
