Ronald commented on Win A DVD Of The Psychological Thriller 'Side Effects':
“The Silence of the Lambs (1991)! Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) and Jodi Foster (Clarice Starling) = great on screen chemistry! And in my opinion, The Silence of the Lambs has to be one of the very best psychological thrillers ever produced! It's my favorite! And this was the film that brought Hannibal Lecter into the mainstream and helped spawn the follow-up films, and I'm sure, must have inspired the new TV series Hannibal!”
Stare At Naked Jennifer Lawrence As 'X-Men's Mystique
I don't care what you're doing, I don't care how NSFW the title of this article sounds: it's an article with Jennifer Lawrence in it, so you should be here regardless, and with the fact that the words "naked" and "X-Men" are involved, I'm not sure why the entirety of the internet aren't viewing this article all at the exact same time. X-Men: Days of Future Past director Bryan Singer tweeted a shot of JLaw on set and the internet should be collectively foaming at the mouth.
Though Rebecca Romijn is known for making the legendary role of Mystique famous, Jennifer Lawrence stepped into the infamous nude blue suit for 2011's X-Men: First Class, and will reprise the role—now that, you know, the Hunger Games lead is bigger than she's ever be...
Here's the trailer for the anticipated comedy Friends With Kids. It's got one of those casts that will make intellectual comedy nerds drool; Jennifer Westfeldt (Jon Hamm's girlfriend, writer and director of the film), Kristin Wiig, Jon Hamm, Adam Scott, Maya Rudolph, Ed Burns, Chris O'Dowd and Megan Fox. Yeah, those are a lot of big and important names but the real question is will it dve people to the theater?
The film follows a group of friends going through all those adult changes I'm hearing so much about. Wiig and Hamm a libidinous newlywed couple, Rudolph and O'Dowd play the somewhat relaxed married couple, Scott and Westfeldt play two friends who decide to sleep together for the soul purpose of having a child. Will their friendship last? Will it turn into something else? These are the questions that every movie asks, all the time.
I do feel like Friends With Kids is a bit of a cliche but then again I also completely trust Westfeldt's choices as both a writer and director. The lucky woman (not just for being with Hamm) wrote Kissing Jessica Stein which has been a critical darling since it's premiere in 2001. Plus, being in a situation where you have friends that you can cast with such ease must be a nice thing. Unfortunately I just don't have the confidence that this movie will end differently than the rest, at least, the trailer doesn't lend itself to the encouragement that the relationship between these two friends could irrevocably be f*cked (and not in the fun way). Basically, what could really sell this movie is the absence of a happy ending.
That being said this trailer most harkens itself to this summer's Our Idiot Brother. While not a turning for comedy, the film really had fun with its cast and will hold up well as a fun portrayal of an American family. Bring on Friends With Kids.
