Proud Peacock Page

Posted 19 years ago

Since her breakthrough as the object of lecherous affection in HARD CANDY, we’ve watched Canadian pixie Ellen Page blossom from fiery teenager to… fiery 20-year-old. And reciting Diablo Cody’s self-consciously pop-culture dialogue was the best thing she could possibly do...

Chaos Theory trailer

Posted 19 years ago

While I’d generally prefer to skip the romcoms, each new Ryan Reynolds movie appearance just further builds my totally hetero man-crush for the snarky Canuck. In the comedy CHAOS THEORY, Reynolds is an uptight family man with a rigid schedule,...

Who is Destro now?

Posted 19 years ago

Allow me to expound on that unbearably clever headline: British actor Christopher Eccleston, one of many guys who has played DR. WHO, is now going to wear the polished mask of G.I. JOE foe Destro. Yes, the part of the...
