Another addition to new Superman cast


And the new Louis Lane is... Amy Adams.

The makers of the new Superman movie announced Amy would play Lane.

Adams' latest role was in "The Fighter" where she earned an Oscar Nominations for best supporting actress. The was a pivotal role for her to demonstrate she was more than just a sweet, nice-all-around girl.

Adams proved she could play a more dramatic and tough role and I hope they let her do just that in this movie.

I wrote earlier that Clark will be played by Henry Cavill and I think the two make a great combination. What do you think? Will the two live up to the roles?

Remembering Elizabeth Taylor

In case you haven't heard, one of the last remaining movie icons passed away today due to heart failure. Taylor's adult career exemplified old Hollywood glam and captured the hearts of the world with her beauty and grace.

To honor Elizabeth Taylor's career, take a look at her throught the years.







I actually can't say I was around during her prime, but we can all have an appreciation of such an influential figure in American history. She defines glamor and is seen as the poster girl of American cinematography. The American people watched her grow up on the screen and made her a legend.

What are your favorite Elizabeth Taylor film?

Whats next for Scream

In case you havent heard, Scream 4 is coming out Apr. 15th and I'm just going to say it: The only one thats been good so far is the first one!

So is it really worth it to spend 10 bucks on the 4th one when they have such a bad track record? The only way the producers can convince audiences that this one will be good is to market the heck out of this movie. Which has not been happening. But watch the trailer and judge for yourself:





I will say I like the return of that freaky mask, it reminds me of the good times I had watching the first movie. But it'll be interesting to see if people flock to the theater on opening weekend.

Miss Watson drops out but vows to return

Emma Watson dropped out of Brown this week claiming that she it just too busy with her acting career. Here is her statement from her website:

Hi everyone

As you know, I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything but recently I've had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible.

I've decided to take a bit of time off to completely finish my work on Harry Potter (the last one comes out this summer) and to focus on my other professional and acting projects. I will still be working towards my degree... it’s just going to take me a semester or two longer than I thought : )

Hope you are all well! Thank you for all your continuing support.

I guess even movie stars get stressed out by college. I hope people take this as a reminder of how challenging college really is. So many people (I'm talking to you mom and dad) underestimate the work students put into their academic career. Sure we have fun, but most of us are truly dedicated to our course work.

I wish Miss Watson the very best and she better make her way back to school as soon as her work allows.

Post-award season blues

The question everyone should be asking themselves is: Well, what now?
Award season is over and I already miss all the buzz and speculations that surrounds this wonderful time of the year. I'm having a hard time moving on...
I've tried to find some movie stuff to get excited about but I just find something that measures up to the challenge. Its like the excitement has just gone into hibernation.
And I refuse to resort to criticizing what the actors wore to the event! They have feelings you know, and for the most part, everyone looked amazing. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise Nichole Kidman.
So, you tell me: What am I supposed to do now?
