Thanks to a tweet from my friend Ted, I learned that my long-time crush Gerry Butler is in negotiation to star in a submarine thriller Hunter Killer. Per LatinoReview, the movie is based on the novel, Firing Point from authors George Wallace and Don Keith, here’s the plot: An untested submarine captain must work with [...]

My go-to review site RottenTomatoes.com has a regular feature where random movie actors/directors list their five favorite movies and why. Earlier this month, it featured AVATAR’s star Sam Worthington’s Five Favorite Films. Please note these are his favorites, not his ‘best films’ list: Lethal Weapon 2 (1989, 82% Tomatometer) Lethal Weapon 2 — because that’s [...]
Why the Brits/Aussies will always rule US TV
Posted in The Flix List, Tube Watch, tagged Aussie actors, Australian actors on US TV, British actors, British actors on US TV, David Tennant joins NBC, Foreign actors on American TV, TV on November 6, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Upon learning this news that David Tenant — the popular star of BBC’s Dr. Who — will be a part of the Peacock network, I thought I’d resurrect my old post I did back in June. Funny how things haven’t changed one bit since then. Brits/Aussies still very much saturate our shows. Just this Fall, another [...]
Time Traveling with Sam Worthington
Posted in Featured Actor/Director, Flix News, tagged Aussie actors, Avatar movie, clash of the titans, sam worthington, The Tourist, Time traveling with Sam Worthington, upcoming movie on October 9, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Sam Worthington’s got to be the most enviable young actor working today. Though he’s not exactly a novice acting-wise, most US audiences have only seen him recently in Terminator Salvation. Yet, instead of working his way up in supporting roles or ensemble cast type of stuff, Hollywood readily entrusts him to be the next big [...]

When I was little, every time the inevitable “what do you want to be when you grow up?” question came up, I always answered with all the tenacity a teeny girl I could muster: a screenwriter. A rather unusual reply for a wee kid barely able to scribble a decent sentence, let alone a paragraph. [...]
Tired of boys ruling Hollywood? Get these real men to the rescue.
Posted in Random Thoughts, The Flix List, tagged actors, Aussie actors, British actors, Gerard Butler, Hollywood leading men, masculinity in films, movies, No more boys rulling Hollywood, what happened to real men in hollywood?, Where have all the movie men gone? on August 4, 2009 | 73 Comments »
British and US press alike have been saying this over and over. Real men are but bygones in today’s Hollywood movies, as more and more boys dominate the box office. The biggest money makers of late are mostly under the age of 25! Shia La Beouf, Zac Efron, Robert Pattinson and Daniel Radcliffe have all [...]
300 & Gladiator sequel talks? Oh, please don’t!
Posted in Random Thoughts, tagged 300, 300 sequel, Aussie actors, Frank Miller, Gerard Butler, gladiator, Gladiator 2 script, Jake Gyllenhaal, movies, Nick Cave, Prince of Persia, Russell Crowe, Zack Snyder on July 27, 2009 | 4 Comments »
All the rumors swirling about a sequel/prequel of 300 just got a new boost now that director Zack Snyder told IGN at the Comic Con this weekend that he’s basically just waiting for Frank Miller’s draft of the comic. Snyder said that there’s a lot of Spartan history to draw inspiration from. He also hinted [...]

As promised in my previous post of Top Ten Movie Couples, here’s the rationale behind my wish list of actor/actress pairings I’d love to see on-screen: 1. Gerard Butler & Eva Green I love Eva in Casino Royale, she’s got the perfect combination of intellect + sex appeal. Pair her with the sexy, Scottish bad [...]

I brought up the remake of Clash of the Titans a couple of weeks ago, and I just learned recently that Hollywood is releasing a very similar genre flick called War of the Gods at around the same time next year. Clash will be out first in Spring, and War in late Summer/early Fall. (See [...]
Ledger had wanted out as Joker?
Posted in Flix News, tagged actors, Aussie actors, Heath Ledger, movies, The Dark Knight, The Joker, Vanity Fair on July 8, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Well according to the Vanity Fair tribute to the late actor, that’s exactly what he wanted. That comes as a surprise to me as his performance was so masterful that you’d think an actor of his caliber would’ve welcomed the opportunity to play such an outrageous character. But his friend/agent Steven Alexander told Vanity Fair’s [...]
