<p>Thats really sad, most of his movies were pretty cheesy but a lot of fun. He was in Shark men on the National geographic channel too, he had an interest in marine biology .</p> -

Yep, sequel is confirmed and they are well down the track with development. Rumours about Wonder Woman turning up too, which makes sense as those three are featured in some of the best stories in the comics. <br><br>
They also want to follow the Marvel lead and get a Justice League movie happening. Can't see them being as successful as all the Marvel movies though, the consistency between Ironman, Captain America, Thor and the The Avengers movies is pretty unique. I'd expect the DC equivalent to follow the mess of the Hulk movies. -
X-Men: First Class was on TV the other night and I finally got the TiVo to myself to sit down with it.<br /><br />Really liked it, and while I'll say that about pretty much anything that involves Rose Byrne in lingerie, I thought the journey of Magneto was fascinating. Fassbender is a fucking gun, though I thought McAvoy was a bit light as Xavier.<br /><br />Bacon was great at the start as the psycho German scientist but got weaker as the movie went on I thought.

<p>no, she fucking didn't. Even in the directors cut of Troy, when everyone else is nude (Diane Kruger i fucking love you, why the fuck did you marry Pacey?) she still managed to keep herself covered. Stop taking yourself seriously (i thought she was fucking hot in Damages, but i bet if you met her, you would notice she is tiny with a massive head). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought First Class was very meh. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I watched Jack Reacher last night. What a pile of shit. Terrible plot, a fucking shit main character (seriously, an invincible ex-military badass who is also a genius? give me a break) that Cruise completely failed to pull off (listening to him trying to sound tough was hilarious). Zero chemistry between the main characters, and even Robert Duvall reprising his role of Harry Hogge (i guess NASCAR and gun ranges would share a lot of clientele) made no fucking sense. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]seriously, why would a group of people decide to help a dude being chased by an entire city's police force? that made no fucking sense at all![/spoiler]</p> -

<p>Add in the fact Reacher is meant to be 6'5" and it's cause for complete suspension of disbelief.</p>

<p>Only if you read the books and then decide that the movie has to be an exact copy. Do you complain that Morgan Freeman isn't a ginga Irishman in Shawshank Redemption?</p> -

<p>Wait!!! Diane Kruger is nude in Troy - off to the video store I go!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I prefer to think she married the dude from Fringe! At least she didn't marry Dawson, that would be something to moan about!</p>

<p>you'll need the Directors Cut (which of course i have) but yea, it's Diane's titties, all out there. great stuff. </p> -

And in fact, I'm glad you've pointed that out because fuck rangas. And Irishmen. The Reacher books were all copies of each other anyway

<p>Very disappointing from Rose there, I happened to catch the Wrestler the other night, not only is it a good movie Marrisa Tomei finally did what I've been wanting her to do since My Cousin Vinny. I'm surprised she hasn't done more movies to be honest, I think she's a pretty decent actress .</p> -

<p>Hasn't she been naked before The Wrestler? I think she was in Before the Devil Knows Your Dead - the HUGE drawback being that Phillip Seymour Hoffman was naked with her.</p> -

<p>I'd prefer not to have the trauma of him ruining the scene. If only more hit actresses would take career advice from Kate Winslet.</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure that whereas most actresses have a "no nudity" clause in their contract Winslet has a "must have nudity" clause in hers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Back to Tomei, she has had a weird career, no big breakout roles but a few where she's been lauded critically. I think she was Oscar nominated for The Wrestler and In The Bedroom. I was reading her IMDB page and she was in A Different World (the Cosby spinoff) and I remember there being a really hot white chick on it when all the rest of the characters were black.</p> -
<p>How did you forget that she was in the directors cut of The Toxic avenger? <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090190/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm'>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090190/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm</a></p>

<p>God bless Kate Winslet, Eva Mendes you could take a leaf out of her book especially after your inexplicit but very funny sex tape. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/0a4d42beff/eva-mendes-sex-tape'>http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/0a4d42beff/eva-mendes-sex-tape</a></p> -
<p>Eve Mendes has got her gear out heaps. I am sure she is nude in "Training Day" at least. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Eve Mendes is fucking hot. </p>
