Wild Things, We Love You So.


Did you see "Where the Wild Things Are"? Loved it. It's for sure a must see movie, especially right now when there is nothing good out. I mean, that haunting/alien movie or whatever it is number one at the box office. Seriously.

Well, when the album details and track listing were released, many were upset about the fact that The Arcade Fire song, "Wake Up", re-recorded exclusively for the movie, was left off the soundtrack, and wasn't available on any digital platform.

Well, it was leaked. Sort of. We Love You So, Spike Jonez's arts and culture blog, along with the World's Best Ever, released a "Wild Things" inspired mix tape, that included "Wake Up" on it. The complete version.

Enjoy darlings.

King Mayer.


Seriously John Mayer? Serious. John Mayer just might be the king of "I think I'm Real Cool". This jacket is his crown and cepter. There is just something about it that screams 'D-bags, I am your leader!'

Who buys a white jacket anyways? Not practical. And is that the outline of an iPhone I see in his pocket? Yeah. Case closed.

And check out below. How awkward is he with Alexa Chung? Creeper.

My Fair Keira?


Shortly after his Oscar-winning success with "Slumdog Millionare", director Danny Boyle was said to be testing out the long talked about remake of "My Fair Lady",written by Emma Thompson (LOVE HER) and produced by Duncan Kenworthy ("Four Weddings and a Funeral). However, a few months ago, Boyle announced he was off the project, saying "It hasn't worked out with me in the end, so that's no for me."

It seems as though Joe Wright, the director of "Atonement", will take his place since his other project "Indian Summer" fell apart last week, and that his usual muse, Keira Knightly, will take the role of Eliza Doolittle. There are also pretty substantial rumors that Bond man Daniel Craig will play Henry Higgins (the Great?? haha). 

Haha I am so excited! I've been all "My Fair Lady" jazzed since "Glee" did "I Could Have Danced All Night" in last week's episode. How good will Keira Knightly be in this? It's totally her. I'm not her biggest fan, but she does period movies like nobody's business.

Jonathan Jackson on 'General Hospital'.


So sexy, non? Love Jonathan Jackson, love him love him love him. Thank God they got rid of that pouty-ass Greg Vaughn. Lucky is already a different character. Totally sexy again. I no longer want to punch him in the face or use his scenes as my cue to go to the bathroom or get a snack. I'm enraptured. Le sigh. GH on the upswing? I hope so. Check it out below.

The soul patch is going to annoy me though.PS how sad is it that that girl has been playing Elizabeth this whole time?

Bones 100th Episode.


For the upcoming 100th episode of "Bones", creators have confirmed that the show will flashback to the first episode, the first time Booth and Brennan worked together.
“We’ll be there for the first time those two personalities clashed,” confirms exec producer Stephen Nathan. “Events will conspire to make them come out of the case hating each other and vowing that they will never work together again.”
Booth and Brennan going their separate ways?! That is the opposite of what we want, non? Perhaps somehow it will bring them closer together...? Anyways, there's more too:
 “We’ll also see the introduction of Angela and the genesis of her friendship with Brennan,” Nathan adds. “And we’ll try and work in a Smurf reference, of course. They certainly have been absent from season 5 so far.”
 I can't wait for the 100th episode. Love "Bones" so much!

Naomi Loves TOMS.


Naomi Watts is wearing TOMS! Very specifically, she is wearing the TOMS that I want. The gray original. Jealous. But we love when celebs support this great business!

Make sure you do too- such a cute style, non?

A Director for the Movie That Never Comes.


Mitch Hurwitz, creator of "Arrested Development", has officially confirmed that he has signed on to be the director for the movie.

He was also said that the script, which he is penning, will feature a "heavy jail presence". He is aware that there has been a lot of skepticism about the movie, and puts the blame up to monetary issues and casting issues (thank you Michael Cera).
"I guess I'm OK with that belief. But, in fact, what's holding up the 'Arrested Development' movie is my need to develop some sort of ... what's the word here ... income (he laughs). Well, there were a couple of things that were holding up the "Arrested Development" movie. ... we didn't have the actors on board. Anyway, we're finally doing it.

He also jokes about the script and an idea he came up with to piss fans off:
Yes, there's going to be a movie, but I can't promise it won't be "Arrested Development: The Improv Movie." I had a great idea for a while just to really annoy the fans, which was that I was going to, like, let people know that we were in production and then ... come out with an old-fashioned variety show where it's like a Christmas special and it's the Bluths and they're singing, they're wearing matching sweaters. Then you would cut away; then it would be like maybe like a sketch that was like (the characters) Maeby and George Michael and he's fishing and she works at a diner, and then back to another song (he laughs); really be just like, 'This is a HUGE disappointment'. I can't believe I could get any of the people who hold the purse strings to go along with this plan ... everyone would hate it and then they would kind of like it, you know. It would kind of come around."

Honestly, I'm going all "Practical Magic" on this movie, I don't care what it comes back as, as long as it comes back.
