Coverboys Fassbender, Craig, Damon and Clooney

Coverboys Fassbender, Craig, Damon and Clooney

Here are a couple of Humpday eye-openers to go with your java. I know you needed a little Fassbender…not to mention some Craig, a little Clooney and a side of Damon. I know I did. Now that the Shame World Tour has wound down, (oh and by the way, Michael just picked up another Best Actor prize for his role in that film, this one from the Rome International Film Festival in Capri) and what with the holidays and all, it’s been awhile since we’ve had any Fassbanger action. British GQ apparently saw a need and filled it. They’ve seen fit to give us a tease of the February issue of their mag with Fassy’s mug right on the cover. It’s a fantastic photograph and when I find a clean copy of it, I’ll be sure to share it. (I must see that suit! Holy crap is that a collar pin I see?)

British GQ knows what the hell they’re doing. (The American version is too enamored of hot chicks.) I wish they wouldn’t put so much copy on the cover, but when the stuff they’re advertising includes articles like the one from the January issue that had Daniel Craig calling the Kardashians “f*cking idiots”, I’ll not complain too loudly.

Speaking of teases, can we talk about the three-fer we get with the cover of the February issue of Vanity Fair? Holy Smorgasbord Batman! Craig and Clooney both look hotter than the face of the sun. Clooney, in particular, looks like he’s saying “Yeah, you know you this”. (Way to sell mags VF!) I wouldn’t ordinarily put Matt Damon in the same category, but there is definitely something about that pic. (Damon is talented and intelligent, both very sexy qualities, plus he seems like a genuinely nice guy, but let’s be honest…it’s the bad boys that make our socks roll up and down.)

Vanity Fair put the famous Proust Questionnaire to their three coverboys (the first time it’s been given to more than one subject at a time) and as one might expect, they came up with some interesting, if irreverent, answers, including the fact that George Clooney wants to be reincarnated as his spoiled dog, Matt Damon hates “d-bag”s and Daniel Craig has a third nipple. (Either he was kidding – since he admitted he usually lies when answering questionnaires – or it’s always airbrushed out of films and photographs)

The February 2012 issue of British GQ is out on 5 January, price £3.99. The February issue will also be available on the iPad. Vanity Fair hits the stands in New York and LA on January 4th, and e-Readers on January 10th.

Tis the season for parties and premieres! Matt Damon and Scarlett Johansson premiered We Bought a Zoo on Monday night at New York’s Ziegfeld Theater along with director Cameron Crowe and cast members Elle Fanning, Thomas Haden Church, John Michael Higgins, Parker Posey, Patrick Fugit and the adorable Maggie Elizabeth Jones. Matt brought his beautiful wife Lucia, Scarlett looked stoned.

Meanwhile, Viggo Mortensen and his A Dangerous Method director David Cronenberg and costar Vincent Cassel brought the film to Paris. (I love Viggo and Vincent Cassel tres bien, but no Fassy and I'm somehow less interested. Yes, I am that shallow.)

Tom Cruise, as well as Paula Patton, Simon Pegg and director Brad Bird, were all in Madrid on Monday night and London on Tuesday night, continuing the Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol world tour. I can only assume NY and LA will be next. Paula Patton looks like she’s enjoying this tour so much she doesn’t ever want it to end.

I don’t care if it’s the Theton kool-aid, his Aunt Fanny’s secret elixir or a portrait in the attic, Tom Cruise looks amazing.

Enjoy the pics!

SNL Digital Short Best Friends Feat. Matt Damon & Val Kilmer

SNL Digital Short Best Friends Feat. Matt Damon & Val Kilmer

One of the best parts of Saturday Night Live last night (aside from Alec Baldwin making a guest appearance) was the SNL Digital Short with Katy Perry and Andy Samberg who are then joined by Matt Damon as a homeless crack addict and Val Kilmer. It is hysterical. LOVE Matt Damon so for him to be in it was just a huge treat.

'Paying for our meth with sexual favors' Omg that was too funny.

New Posters and Images from We Bought A Zoo with Matt Damon!

 

New Posters and Images from We Bought A Zoo with Matt Damon!

We have some new posters and new images from We Bought a Zoo. The film is currently a hot topic, at least among people who care about such things, since 20th Century Fox held advance screenings in select cities all over the country last night.

The Twitterverse blew up after people saw Cameron Crowe’s latest in which Matt Damon stars as Benjamin Mee, a widower who…you guessed it, buys a zoo. The consensus seems to be that it’s a pretty good family film. Audiences laughed and cried in all of the right places. It’s not an awards contender, but it’s enjoyable and will probably make the producers some dough. There’s nothing wrong with merely being entertaining, it’s what every movie should strive for on some level and people do need something to take the kids to see during the holidays besides The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

The synopsis is simple: Set in Southern California, a father moves his young family to the countryside to renovate and re-open a struggling zoo. It’s also based on a true story.

We Bought a Zoo stars Scarlett Johansson, Thomas Haden Church, John Michael Higgins, Elle Fanning, Patrick Fugit, Angus Macfadyen and Colin Ford. It opens December 23 in the US and Canada but not until 16th March in the UK.

UK Trailer for We Bought A Zoo!

Trailer for We Bought A Zoo with Matt Damon!

It’s been almost two months since we saw the US trailer for Cameron Crowe's We Bought a Zoo and I’d say the first half of this one for the UK market is the same. The second half does give us some new material (although if you’ve been to an AMC theater lately, you’ll have seen it in their “First Look” series.  A new phenomenon I think, but not exclusive to this movie.) The premise of We Bought a Zoo is this: Single dad Benjamin Mee (Matt Damon), in a desire to change his life and improve the lives of his children, moves his family to a rural part of Southern California to renovate and re-open a struggling zoo. Scarlett Johansson plays his fledgling zookeeper and from what little we see here, it looks like they'll have some sweet chemistry.

After films like Jerry Maguire and Say Anything, if there's one thing you can count on with a  Cameron Crowe film, it's heart. I think that given the grin I was sporting while watching this trailer, we can count on it here too. I think that Thomas Haden Church probably sums it up when he says "I like the animals, but I love the people."

Damon, Johansson and HadenChurch star with Elle Fanning, John Michael Higgins, Angus Macfadyen (yum!), Peter Riegert and Patrick Fugit (Almost Famous).  We Bought A Zoo opens on December 23 in the US, Canada and the UK

Trailer for We Bought A Zoo with Matt Damon!

Trailer for We Bought A Zoo with Matt Damon!

There is finally a trailer for Cameron Crowe's We Bought A Zoo! I've been curious about this for a long time. The premise is that single dad Benjamin Mee (Matt Damon), in a desire to change his life and improve the lives of his children, moves his family to a rural part of Southern California to renovate and re-open a struggling zoo. Scarlett Johannson plays his fledgling zookeeper and from what little we see here, it looks like they'll have some sweet chemistry.

I have to say, I'm a fan of Cameron Crowe's films, particularly Jerry Maguire (and proud of it) and Say Anything. If there's one thing you can count on with a Crowe film, it's heart. And while the film is pretty high-concept, I think that given the grin I was sporting while watching this trailer, we can count on it here too. I think that Thomas Haden Church probably sums it up when he says "I like the animals, but I love the people."

Damon, Johannson and HadenChurch star with Elle Fanning, John Michael Higgins, Angus Macfadyen (yum!), Peter Riegert and Crowe-find Patrick Fugit (Almost Famous).  We Bought A Zoo opens on December 23 in the US, Canada and the UK.

Contagion Spreads in New York!

Contagion Spreads in New York!

Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion had a red carpet premiere last night at the Rose Theater in Lincoln Center in New York City. Matt Damon brought his shiny head and his beautiful wife Lucianna. Along with the director and the screenwriter (Scott Z. Burns), cast members, Sanaa Lathan, Elliott Gould, Jennifer Ehle, Daria Strokous, Monique Gabriela Curnen, Brian O’Donnell, Griffin Kane and Chin Han attended as well. Goopie…I mean Gwyneth Paltrow was in London getting free leather at a  coach event. Not sure where Kate Winslet was, since she lives in New York. Jude Law is also in London, doing a play. The winner of the glamour award for the night was, in my opinion, Marion Cotillard. Loved the wrap-around braids that perfectly matched the Grecian-inspired dress.

Other guests included Matthew Settle, Michael Douglas (sans Catherine Zeta Jones), Olivia Munn (who will attend the opening of an envelope) and inexplicably, figure skater and reality tv wack-job, Johnny Weir.

Contagion opens this Friday September 9! Enjoy the pics!

Venice Spreads Contagion! (PHOTOS)

Venice Spreads Contagion! (PHOTOS)

Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion got the full red carpet glamour treatment on Saturday night in Venice. On hand were the director and some of his all-star cast, including Gwyneth Paltrow (loved the dress from the waist up. Waist down it was just odd), Laurence Fishburne, Jennifer Ehle and Matt Damon, whose shaved pate matched his director’s. Matt’s is for an upcoming film. He’s currently filming Elysium for Neil Blomkamp up in British Columbia. Not sure exactly what the plot is or why he needs a bald head, (something sci-fi), but it’s got an amazing cast. I’m disappointed that Kate Winslet wasn’t there. She premiered Carnage and Mildred Pierce (which is being released theatrically in some parts of Europe) and then apparently left. Maybe she wanted to get back to New York for her kids to start school. Maybe Louis was bored. Who knows. I just wanted to see another dazzling red carpet ensemble. (Everyone is still talking about that Stella McCartney optical illusion thing. Stunning!)

Bringing the glam was Mrs. Matt Damon, Luciana Barroso Damon. She looked gorgeous, although she probably looks gorgeous when she gets up in the morning. Matt shared his wife’s nickname for him, which is “Red Alert”. Apparently he’s the kind of over-protective parent that checks to see if his daughters are still breathing at night, but he insists he’s not a “helicopter parent.” That’s so cute.

Here’s some pics of the pretty people. Contagion opens in the US this Friday September 9 and 21 October in the UK. Next up in Venice, more Fassy at the premiere of Shame!
