Supporting Actors: The Overlooked and Underrated (part 5 of 5)

30 May 2012 10:08 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Gary Oldman as Jackie Flannery in State Of Grace (Phil Joanou, 1990, USA):

Long considered one of the most talented actors in cinema, it’s very strange that his outstanding acting as the younger brother of Ed Harris’ local crime boss in this underrated film doesn’t get talked about nearly enough when discussing Oldman’s body of work. This is a must-see performance for all Oldman fans. For the record, State Of Grace is a far better Irish mob film than The Departed (Martin Scorsese, 2006, USA), primarily because it contains much better acting across the board. Oldman was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (Tomas Alfredson, 2011, UK/France).

Other notable Gary Oldman performances: Prick Up Your Ears (Stephen Frears, 1987, USA), Dracula (Francis Ford Coppola, 1992, USA), True Romance (Tony Scott, 1993, USA), Leon: The Professional (Luc Besson, 1994, France), Air Force One (Wolfgang Petersen, 1997, USA), The Contender (Rod Lurie, »

Demi Moore (Finally) Changes Her Twitter Name

3 May 2012 5:24 PM, PDT | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »

Demi Moore is finally ready to move on from her failed marriage to Ashton Kutcher. At least in the Twitterverse. The "G.I. Jane" actress ended months of speculation Thursday, finally answering the question: "When is she going to change her Twitter handle?" Also read: Demi Moore Not Changing @MrsKutcher Twitter Handle Anytime Soon Moore had been going by @MrsKutcher, a handle that grew more awkward with each passing day since November, when she announced plans to divorce "Two and a Half Men" star Kutcher.

Olivia Wilde Goes Back to Blond—Do You Love It?

9 April 2012 6:50 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Olivia Wilde has gone to the lighter side. The naturally blond actress has already proven that she's not afraid of changing up her hair styles from time to time (not as much as Rihanna, though) after chopping off her long tresses for a casual layered 'do in January. But instead of going shorter, Wilde lightened up her color. Liv's new look is for her latest film Rush with Chris Hemsworth (remember, we saw a peek of it when we thought they got hitched). Now, we're pretty sure it's common knowledge that Wilde would look amazingly gorgeous regardless of what she did with her hair. Heck, she could even pull a G.I. Jane and it'd be hot. »

People are bashing Katy Perry's "Part of Me" video for "glamorizing" war

30 March 2012 2:00 AM, PDT | Nerve | See recent Nerve news »

The new video for Katy Perry's number-one hit "Part of Me," off Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection, was released last week, and it showed us a Perry quite unlike the California Gurl we're used to. Filmed at California's Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, it features the singer in full-on G.I. Jane mode, joining the Marines in a paean to girl power — Perry actually trained with real boot-camp instructors in preparation for the role. But not everyone was impressed. Third-wave feminist author Naomi Wolf (The Beauty Myth) is calling on Americans to boycott Perry, calling her new video "a total piece of propaganda for the Marines." Wolf wrote on her Facebook page: "I really want to find out if she was paid by them for making it. It is truly shameful... I would suggest a boycott of this singer whom I [...] »

F*cked Up’s Damian Abraham Did Not Exactly Enjoy Katy Perry’s Marine Video

29 March 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »

If you didn't catch it last week, the video for "Part of Me," Katy Perry's not-about–Russell Brand but also totally-about–Russell Brand new single, featured one ex-Mrs. B dealing with a breakup by … enlisting in the Marines. And dancing around the base all G.I. Jane-style. It was unexpected, to say the least, and seemed like the kind of choice that someone might have a disapproving opinion about. Enter Fucked Up front man Damian Abraham, who tweeted, "Seeing Katy Perry as a soldier in 'Part of Me' really makes me think that we need to start a war so she can go die." Yeah, even he realized that was unhelpful and way harsh, so here's his follow-up: "Yes I'm aware my last tweet was kinda dumb but so is glamorizing war to sell records to idiots. Katy Perry Still Sucks." Beef plus politics (plus a very intimidating hardcore »

'Part Of Me' Slammed As Marine Propaganda By Feminist Author

29 March 2012 8:58 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Feminist author Naomi Wolf has a big problem with Katy Perry's lastest music video, "Part of Me."

Wolf, who is best known for her book "The Beauty Myth" and most recently made headlines when she was arrested in October at an Occupy Wall Street protest, is asking the public to boycott the singer's video because she claims it's propaganda for the U.S. Marines Corps.

Perry's latest video features the singer breaking up with a boyfriend and doing her best "G.I. Jane" impersonation as she cuts her hair and joins the Marines.

"Have you all seen the Katy Perry Marines video?" Wolf posted on her Facebook page on Sunday. "It is a total piece of propaganda for the Marines ... I really want to find out if she was paid by them for making it ... It is truly shameful."

The author added, "I would suggest a boycott of this singer »

Katy Perry Transforms Into a Marine for New Music Video

22 March 2012 10:05 AM, PDT | PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news »

In her latest music video, Katy Perry is laying off the sweets. No cotton candy and no cupcake bra. Instead, she cuts her hair, wraps down her breasts and joins the Marine Corps. The video for Perry's power-pop breakup anthem "Part of Me" - a song she says is not about her ex-husband Russell Brand, from whom she split in December 2011 - shows off her sugar-free, tough-tom boy side. Photos: Katy & Russell's Most Romantic Moments"This is one of the most aggressive videos I've ever done," Perry, 27, tells MTV, which premiered her video (watch it above) Wednesday. "It's an affirmation of strength, »

Katy Perry's "Part of Me" Music Video Not What We Expected...but Still Rocks

21 March 2012 5:18 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Don't get us wrong, Katy Perry's "Part of Me" music video was jam-packed with girl power, and also, camouflage. It all starts with Perry sitting in her car, watching her main squeeze flirt with another at work (we think). With her cute picture locket in hand, Perry rushes in and confronts her soon-to-be ex beau, who totally denies anything scandalous going on (right, buddy). Cue Katy storming out and stopping at the gas station. It was then, after grabbing some Arizona Iced Tea that the blue-eyed beauty saw a bumper sticker on the community board that read, "All women are created equal, then some become marines." After channeling some Demi Moore in G.I. Jane and chopping off »

Prometheus. WonderCon. Blah Blah Blah. Trailer. Squirrel.

19 March 2012 7:24 AM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »

So, as everyone knows by now, a new trailer for Prometheus is zipping around the internet, and everyone everywhere is reported as being, “full of joy.”

The film, which is directed by Ridley Scott, written by Lost creator Damon Lindelof (and Jon Spaihts – co-writer of last year’s The Darkest Hour), and starring: Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, and Guy Pearce, is coming at you like a certain thumbing of the nose at Oscar-bait films.

As if unable to contain their irritation any longer at the fact that certain directors can make movies about boring subjects, and seem to get nominated for awards even before anyone knows anything about the film, except that at some point certain older actors sit around and have tea – here comes the reply.

Ridley Scott, director of Alien and Blade Runner (Psstt… don’t mention G.I. Jane, White Squall, the completely bazonkers Hannibal, »

Demi Moore Will Be In Rehab For Awhile

22 February 2012 1:10 PM, PST | Reel Empire | See recent Reel Empire news »

After Demi Moore's 911 was released to the public and then went viral, the G.I. Jane star almost immediately sought treatment at a rehabilitation center. Even now, we're not exactly sure what the star did to send her into enough panic to dial 911. In the 911 call, friends of Demi's stated that she'd smoked something but made it very clear that it wasn't marijuana and that it caused her to have convulsions. In addition, one of the friends mentioned that she was struggling with some other things as well.   Since Moore checked herself in to rehab, we've heard that the actress has an addiction to everything from Red Bull to perscription drugs. Whatever the addiction is, it's pretty serious and it's even been revealed that Moore's stay in rehab will be much longer than anyone anticipated.   All we can hope for is that Demi Moore overcomes her addiction as soon as possible. »

Opposing Force (aka Hell Camp) DVD Review!

22 February 2012 12:05 PM, PST | The Movie Pool | See recent The Movie Pool news »

The Movie Pool joins the first-ever Opposing Force (aka Hell Camp) DVD!

The Set-up

An overzealous military camp commander (Anthony Zerbe) abuses a female soldier (Lisa Eichhorn) during torture training, leading her comrade (Tom Skerritt) to take serious measures to stop his brutality. Also stars Richard Roundtree.

Directed by: Eric Karson

The Delivery

Originally released under the title Hell Camp, this 1986 military drama pre-dates G.I. Jane by over a decade, but it was more brutal and not nearly as stylized as the later Demi Moore debacle. Golden Globe nominee Lisa Eichhorn stars as Casey, an Air Force pilot who volunteers for  a brutal survival training exercise, only to fall victim to a sadistic commander named Becker, played by Anthony Zerbe. Becker decides Casey must learn the harsh realities of being a possible prisoner of war, so he rapes her "for her own good." 

This doesn't sit well with Logan (Tom Skerritt »
