Where would you put your Oscar?

So I stumbled on this article on Yahoo! about where the stars put their niffty Oscar awards. I reccomend you check it out and ask your self, what would you do with the prized award.

What about a bullet-prof case in Sue Sulvester style? A cheerleading national championchip may not be as public as the Oscar, so the actor should take special care to protect thier prize from an attempted assacination.

I don't really see the appeal of placing your Oscar in the bathroom, no matter how much it matches your facet... I think actors just like to be weird. Saying that your Oscar is in your office, isn't as cool or 'hip' as saying you want to melt it down to make a doornob.

Let me know what you think, where would you like your Oscar?

Yay! More super hero trailers

No sarcasm here, I'm genuinely excited about super hero movies. Since the teaser trailer of X-Men First Class, I've been looking forward to the first official trailer.
Looks promising to me especially because of the Cuban Missile Crisis reference. Alternate realities are always fun for someone like me who loves history... or at least the History Channel.
I can't really say I know the comics but I remember watching the original cartoon, which I loved. From what I compared in the other movies, they don't follow the comics that much but I don't mind. A good story is always going to be good regardless of what the comics say. To all you comic lovers, please don't stone me for saying that!

Bieber, you just can't miss him

So, he's in the Super Bowl commercials, he's constantly on the radio, he has made lots of late night apperances (most notalbly on The Daily Show)and in case you missed the memo, he's now in 3D.

Justin Beiber opened the box office at number 2 this weekend, being beat out for the top spot by Just Go with It. I honestly thought Beiber fever would win out and dominate the weekend. I'm not a fan at all, but with all hype going on with this kid, it seemed eniveitable.

So why didn't Beiber open number one? Sandelers movie didn't look like much of threat and Beiber was pulling out all the stops in terms of publicity. I couldn't watch tv with out seeing him in a commercial, apperance or movie trailer. Did he burn people out?

Why didn't Beiber's 3D debut make the cut?

Super Bowl introduced summer heros

I'm one of those stange girls who tune in to the game just to watch the ads. It's not something I like to admit but there it is. Some of my favorite ads are always the new movie trailers which usally gives a first look at the coming summer blockbuster hits.
So, in case you missed them, here are my top picks.

Captain America


Transformers 3 Dark of the Moon


Pirates of the Caibbean 4 On Stranger Tides



Which movie trailers did you enjoy most durnig the Super Bowl?

Queen gives "The King's Speech" her o.k.

With the Oscars approaching, the nominees could use any 'bump' from any celebrity or others in the public eye. ideally, if you made a movie about a legendary British monarch, who would be the best possible person to get an endorsement from? What about the monarchs daughter how is now Queen?

Queen Elizabeth II had a private screening of "The King's Speech" and "was moved" by the film.

The news comes at a time when all the contenders for the Oscars are pulling out all the stops to wow the judges. In an official statement the production company said "we are deeply honored and humbled by Her Majesty's appreciation of the film. It was a labor of love for all of us, and this is high praise."

The movie about King George VI and his rise to the thrown has earned 12 Oscar nominations. This is great PR for the film in general and perfect timing in terms of publicity for the Oscars.

However, how much will this influence the movies chances on award night.

Superman retuns.... I'm serious, he's back.

Superman: Man of Steel is scheduled to premiere in 2012 with Henry Cavill playing Kent. Who you may ask is Henry Cavill? He plays Charles Brandon in the Showtime series The Tutors.

Personally, I think he'd make a great Superman. I am however bothered by the fact that Hollywood is remaking this movie again. Can't they come up with any original ideas anymore? The market is over-saturated with remakes and superhero movies, and this one has both.

Well there is a pretty good chance this movie will be a blockbuster hit, but no one will ever top Mr. Revve.

What do you think about the new Superman movie?

And the losers are...

Tis the season for glamorous award shows honoring the best in Hollywood. It can get pretty competitive with great movies like "Black Swan" and "The Kings Speech" on the ballot. However, there is one organization that awards a different kind of movie.



The 31st annual Razzies awards highlight what they perceive as the worst movies of the year. This years nominations range from vampires to gross 3D movies. Worst picture nominees are "The Bounty Hunter", "The Last Airbender", "Sex in the City 2", "Twilight Saga Eclipse", and "Vampires Suck".



"The Last Airbender" and Twilight both received 9 nominations in categories like worst director, actor, screenplay. Mylie Cyrus is nominated for worst actress for her role in "The Last Song".



The worst eye-gouging mis-use of 3D category started this year due to the explosion on 3D movies in 2010. Nominees are "Cats and Dogs 2: Revenge of Kitty Galore", "Clash of the Titans", "The Last Airbender", "Nutcracker 3D" and "Saw 3D".



It's important to note that some of the nominees were hugely successful at the box office. According to Wikipedia, Eclipse grossed $693,579,566 at the box office and set a record for biggest midnight opening in the U.S. I confess that I watched Eclipse and kinda liked it, but I do think it is worthy of the nomination. Its just so darn cheesy and melodramatic. And who can really relate to Bella? Who has ever had to convince their vampire boyfriend into turning her into a vampire?



I must say, some of these races are pretty close. However, we'll have to wait till Feb. 26 to see the results. The date is intentailly set on the night before the Oscars. Last year, Sandra Bullock won a Razzie for her role in "All about Steve", and then won an Oscar for her role in "The Blind Side" the next day!



So, who do you think will take home the prize?
