Sex sells. Some of the highest hits this site has received is when it posts images of actors/actresses in various states of undress. And when you have a pic of respected, talented, Oscar-winning — and very sexy — actress Jennifer Lawrence in nothing but blue body paint and pasties, you can be sure it’ll getContinue Reading

Remember this cool poster for “The Wolverine”? It was a rare bit of inspired design from a studio that regularly flubs their films’ promotional materials (follow-up posters and trailers ranged from lackluster to awful). Twentieth Century Fox finally figured out that they should continue giving us more of the same calligraphy-styled posters. So here weContinue Reading

Marvel Studios has by now developed a firm reputation for being risk takers, especially in their choice of talent before and behind the camera. “Guardians Of The Galaxy” is perhaps their riskiest venture of all, a cosmic fantasy featuring talking raccoons and directed by a guy with no solid Box Office record. It could beContinue Reading

I wonder, when Jamie Foxx signed up to play baddie Electro in “The Amazing Spider-man 2″ did he know upfront which version of the character it would be?
