Holy Shizz, y’all! How’s this to brighten up your Saturday afternoon … two new promo images from the big screen adaptation of the video game title Prince of Persia have made their way to the Internets. As some of you may know, Jake Gyllenhaal will play Prince Dastan in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time … here is our first look at one of two new promo images from the film:


I mean … hot dayum … Jakey poo is lookin’ fine as hell, don’t you think? I don’t care if the movie is 2 hours of Jake standing around with his shirt off, in fact, I sincerely hope it’s 2 hours of Jake standing around with his shirt off … the filmmakers can absolutely count on my $12 when this movie opens in theaters. I am so sold. After the jump, check out one more promo photo of Jake in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time — yes, he still is not wearing a shirt …

I Watches The ‘Watchmen’

Plus my night with Lynda Carter
Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Yesterday was a pretty packed day full of awesomeness. David and I spent part of the afternoon at the movies for an impromptu date and then last night I met up with my dear friend Gillian for a night of entertainment with Lynda Carter — the day was pretty spectacular. First things first … yesterday, David and made our way to the ArcLight to see Watchmen mid-day so as to avoid the crush of movie goers. Forget all the bitchy negative reviews you may read about this film, I’m here to tell you that it is a great film, deffo worth watching:


Having just read Watchmen for the first time this week, the story from the graphic novel was fresh in my mind as I saw the film adaptation yesterday. I contend that the film version is a very faithful retelling of the graphic novel that will surely entertain folks who have read the comics or not. The opening sequence was really very cool … it explained some of the history of the superheros in the film and set up the storyline nicely. In the comics, there is a lot of graphic violence that is not seen in very many comic book titles … but even so, I was never bothered by the images I saw. On the big screen, the violence is brought to life and really drives the point home. In this way, I think the movie version is superior to the comics. As I suspected, there is a lot of penis in this film. I’d say that 90% of the scenes with Dr. Manhattan in them has full frontal CGI p33n swingin’ in the breeze. I must say, it’s refreshing that the male anatomy can be so casually used in a movie like this … it adds to the realism and amplifies the feeling you’re supposed to get from the graphic novel. Of the actors in the film, I felt that Malin Ackerman (who plays Silk Spectre II) came off as a poor man’s Cameron Diaz (you may remember her as the bitchy younger sister in 27 Dresses) and was the weakest of the cast … but overall, I quite liked the performances from all of the actors. The movie is not Academy Award level but it’s really entertaining. As for the changed ending, I have to say that I much prefer the ending in the film to the ending in the book. If you are a purest for the graphic novel, you may be disappointed but I was not at all. I much preferred the way the movie ended … it was more believable and saved the film from getting too cheesy. I don’t have many complaints … the movie is a really good representation of the comics. I’d be curious to hear what real moviegoers who don’t like the film as compared to the graphic novel think. Mebbe I missed something. But, as I said, I really enjoyed the film … I deffo think y’all will too.

After the movie, I had to race home to change and meet up with Gillian for our date with Lynda Carter. After the jump, check out some photos from our fun last night and watch a video of Ms. Carter performing Crazy by Patsy Cline

Sarah Silverman & Jimmy Kimmel Are Dunzo … Again!

Guess the reconciliation didn't take
Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Last July we learned that comics Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel decided to end their 5 year relationship only to reconcile and start up their romance later last year in October. Since then, it was presumed that the couple were happily reattached but, alas, it turns out that they were not … as a result, the couple have reportedly decided to break-up again … they are dunzo, y’all!


A second chance at love didn’t work. Despite a reconciliation that gave them both cause for laughs, late-night talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel, 41, and comedian Sarah Silverman, 38, have split, a source confirms to PEOPLE. No reason was revealed for their second breakup. The funny duo dated for five years before they called it quits last July. But they rekindled their relationship just a few months later. “They’re taking it slow,” a source told PEOPLE last fall. “They’re on the road back to being together.” The pair even managed to poke fun of their first split on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last October when she was a guest and they exchanged awkward silences and quips like, “Did you make sweet love to anyone while we were apart?”

This is so sad. Didn’t it really seem as if Sarah and Jimmy were made for one another? I was really bummed when the couple broke up last year and was relieved that they decided to give their relationship another go … but if they really have broken up again, there’s prolly a very good reason. Sad news … but I’m not really holding out for a third try. Something tells me that this dunzo is the last one for the pair.

More Photos Of Britney Spears & Sons At Disney World’s Magic Kingdom

More cuteness abounds
Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Yesterday we saw a couple of photos of Britney Spears with her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James making a quick pit stop at the Magic Kingdom at Disney World in Flordia (in between her concert stops in New Orleans, LA and Atlanta, GA) and today we get to see a couple more photos from her time at Disney. BritneySpears.com has been updated with two new photos of Brit and her boys at Disney this week:


While the photos are very similar to the first photo we saw yesterday, I can’t resist sharing the adorableness of Britney’s sons. They look so happy … and not just ‘cuz they are at Disney World but because they are with their mommy at Disney World. Britney’s decision to bring her children on tour with her — no matter the financial cost to their father Kevin Federline — was a wise one. It’s really great seeing Britney look so happy all the time. Great pics!!
