Kendra Wilkinson is in the spiritCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Nov 2nd, 2008How many Jokers will there be this Halloween? Probably more than you’d like. How many Jokers will there be this Halloween who put on a mask because they’re too lazy to use face paint and hold a chainsaw which makes absolutely no sense? Uh, probab...ly just this guy. Maybe he should watch the movie first. ... |

The Dark Knight Breaks $500 MillionCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Sep 1st, 2008The Dark Knight surpassed the $500 million mark early Sunday morning, which is a new record, as no film has ever accomplished this particular feat in just 45 days. It probably helps that only one other film has even accomplished that feat. Titanic hi...t $500 million in 91 days. Industry Analysts still predict a $520-$535 million domestic total, which would be $60 plus million shy of Titanic’s $600.8 million record. |

Mary-Kate Wants ImmunityCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Aug 6th, 2008You might remember that Mary-Kate Olsen was the first person called after Heath Ledger’s unconscious body was discovered in his apartment in January of this year. Interestingly, Mary-Kate Olsen is also the only acquaintance of Heath’s refusing to... talk to federal investigators. According to The Daily Mail MK is demanding “immunity from prosecution” before she’ll give any details about his death to the feds. Investigators believe the powerful painkiller [on which Heath overdosed] may have been obtained illegally and are desperate to find out where it came from. They contacted Olsen’s lawyer asking for the star’s help, but he has reportedly not allowed her to talk unless she is given immunity from prosecution. Everyone else connected to Heath has been interviewed by federal investigators. Everyone except Mary-Kate, who has refused to speak. Jeez, guilty much? Of course, once the media got a hold of this little tidbit, Olsen’s attorney issued the following statement: “Despite tabloid speculation, Mary-Kate Olsen had nothing whatsoever to do with the drugs found in Heath Ledger’s home or his body, and she does not know where he obtained them. Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed. These descriptions are incomplete and inaccurate.” Perhaps when under federal review, her decision to send her bodyguard instead of paramedics might be construed as “monumentally stupid” and “the final nail in his coffin.” Not to mention the all the decency laws she’s broken over the years wearing clothing that asinine. I’m sure there’s a substantial fine and mandatory jail time for those glasses at least. |

Mary-Kate Comments On Heath Ledger’s DeathCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Aug 5th, 2008Mary-Kate Olsen claims she doesn’t know where Heath Ledger got the drugs that killed him, her attorney says in a statement. MK, 22, believes she has already provided investigators with enough “relevant information” but the New York Post has ...reported she is refusing to talk to federal investigators about Heath’s death until she is granted immunity from prosecution. Her lawyer Michael C. Miller said, “Despite tabloid speculation, Mary-Kate Olsen had nothing whatsoever to do with the drugs found in Heath Ledger’s home or his body, and she does not know where he obtained them. Regarding the Government’s investigation, at Ms. Olsen’s request, we have provided the Government with relevant information including facts in the chronology of events surrounding Mr. Ledger’s death and the fact that Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed. We don’t know the source of the information being quoted in the media regarding the Government’s inquiry, but these descriptions are incomplete and inaccurate.” |

JOHNNY DEPP LINED UP TO PLAY THE RIDDLER IN NEXT BATMAN FILMCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Aug 1st, 2008'The Dark Knight' has performed so well at the box office that producers are already working on casting the next instalment of the Batman story, once again to be directed by Christopher Nolan. In a frankly inspired piece of casting it is rumoured tha...t they will be approaching Johnny Depp to play the role of the Riddler and attempt to breathe life into a character hammed to death by Jim Carrey in the truly awful 'Batman Forever'. Johnny's a lovely man so hopefully he won't prepare for the role in the same way as Heath Ledger did for the Joker (by seemingly going a bit dotty then dying). If this comes off it might be the first time the audience is cheering for the Riddler to give Batman a truly historic hammering. |

Chopped LiverCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Jul 18th, 2008I haven't actually seen The Dark Knight yet (tomorrow). But, while I imagine that Heath Ledger's The Joker is everything everyone says it is -- the best performance in a movie of all time, ever, until the end of time -- and that he deserves all the p...osthumous praise we can heap upon the man's grave (R.I.P. Heath!), can I just say this: Christian Bale ain't exactly chopped liver, people. Bale is top five one of the best actors of this generation, and along with Nolan, he resurrected the Batman franchise. He'll go down as the best Batman ever, and given the limitations of his character and that suit, I suspect that Bale warrants, natch, deserves some mad fucking props. So, go see The Dark Knight this weekend. Fawn all over Heath Ledger, rave about the man's performance and what a shame it is that he died so young, but don't forget about Bale, y'all. He's the reason there's even a sequel to Nolan's reboot in the first place. |

Christian Bale’s Big NightCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Jul 15th, 2008Christian Bale is flanked by Lauren Conrad (The Hills) and Blake Lively (Gossip Girl) at the premiere of The Dark Knight at AMC Loews Lincoln Center in New York City on Monday. Emilie Hirsch and Maggie Gyllenhaal was also on hand for the festiviti...es. (pictured inside) 75-year-old legend and co-star Michael Caine recently commented about his thoughts on who the best Batman actor of all-time, saying, “I think Christian is the best actor ever to play Batman. He’s also very lucky. He’s got the best writer and director ever for Batman, Christopher Nolan. That’s why I agreed to do it. I’d seen Memento and Insomnia so was a big fan of Christopher. Then I read Batman Begins and thought the script was brilliant. |

Christian Bale is Back as BatmanCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Jul 14th, 2008Christian Bale sits down with The Today Show’s Matt Lauer to talk about the upcoming summer blockbuster, The Dark Knight, opening this Friday. Here’s a snippet of the interview: So much was made of Heath Ledger’s portrayal of the Joker. It w...as such a dark role. In some way, perhaps, do you think in real life, it caused him to slip across some line of reality and may have had some role in his accidental death? Personally, I find it to be a complete lack of understanding of acting. I also find it very rude to try to create some kind of sound bite for such a tragedy. The man was a complex man, a good man, but you know what? I saw him having the best time playing The Joker. He was someone who completely immersed himself in his role. As do I. But in the end of the day, he was having a wonderful time doing it, He couldn’t have been happier doing it. |

Batman & The Joker Do Entertainment WeeklyCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Jul 4th, 2008Director Christopher Nolan spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the late Heath Ledger, who plays The Joker in the upcoming superhero blockbuster, The Dark Knight. Here’s what he had to say: On Heath’s commitment to his character: ”The guy had... serious nuts. What I needed was someone who wouldn’t be afraid of the comparison with Jack Nicholson. And then I saw Heath’s incredible performance in Brokeback Mountain. Such a lack of vanity. This was an actor who wasn’t afraid to bury himself in his character — to a massive extent.” |

Anne Hathaway Uses Dirty Joke To Break The IceCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on Jun 19th, 2008After filming Bride Wars, Anne Hathaway was welcoming a change of scenery. She knew that coming into Get Smart, odds are the cast and crew were going to give her special treatment as she was the only girl on set. Well, in order avoid the excessive po...liteness that was on its way, Anne decided to tell the dirtiest joke she could possibly think of to break the ice. "I just finished making a movie (Bride Wars) with Kate Hudson and I was kind of in estrogen-land and I didn’t mind testosterone-ville. I came in about three weeks into filming, so I think, by that point, the guys had a camaraderie, and, all of a sudden, I was the girl on set, so everyone went out of their way to be polite to me. "I just thought, this isn’t going to work, we’re not going to have any fun. I decided to tell the dirtiest joke I could think of just to put everyone at ease… Steve blushed." Co-star Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was a big fan of Anne and her tactic! He says, "She can be vulgar and I love that." WHAT WAS THE JOKE?!! Not even a hint? |

A Closer Look at The Dark Knight Trailer: Two-Face, The Scarecrow and More!Category: Cinema & TV - Posted by: rapvirus on May 5th, 2008Since the new trailer for The Dark Knight went live earlier this morning, A lot of fans have been analyzing the footage frame by frame for hidden clues (however, no one has found Waldo yet). Most people picked up on the scene that I mentioned in the ...earlier trailer posting where Harvey Dent is behind held to the floor in a puddle of what appears to be a gasoline type substance (as seen below). Many people agree with my conclusion that this is most definitely how Dent becomes Two-Face. A much different set-up from the traditional Joker/Acid story-line from the comic book series. |

"I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you stranger," Heath Ledger's Joker says du...ring the dramatic bank robbery scene that kicks off the film. The late actor's chilling performance as the Clown Prince of Crime will remain fully intact, the Associated Press reports. And director Chris Nolan has not deviated from his original vision in light of Ledger's death. "I think he'd be very pleased to see we're just moving ahead as is," Nolan said. "If you try to honor somebody, you honor them by respecting their work and putting it out there for as many people to see. He was immensely proud of the work he did on the film. I feel a great burden to present that in an undistorted form." |

Scarlett jokes about engagement to ObamaCategory: Cinema & TV - Posted by: KingM on Jan 26th, 2008Scarlett Johansson returned from the Persian Gulf with a whole lot of soldiers’ trinkets and a delusion of her own engagement — to Barack Obama. “I am engaged ... to Barack Obama,” Johansson joked in an interview with The Associated Press on ...Thursday. “My heart belongs to Barack, and that is who I am currently, finally, engaged to. Yes.” Johansson, who showed her support for the Democratic presidential candidate at the Iowa caucus earlier this month, was really just deflecting a question about rumors she might be engaged (to actor-beau Ryan Reynolds). |
