Dakota Fanning PLAYS EVIL!

Dakota Fanning is sinking her teeth into a juicy new role: She’s the latest ’tween to jump on the “Twilight” bandwagon. The 14-year-old is in talks to play a pint-size vampire in “New Moon,” the second installment of the hit fantasy series, as the angelic-faced vampire Jane. Bet she took the role only to be closer to Robert Pattinson!

Kiddies, this role is no joke, it's evil as hell and I can't wait for Dakota to crush skulls and lick blood offa breasts, wait did that happen in the Mormon's book? I guess it was just violence...

Al Sharpton To The Rescue?

This post has not been approved by Nick Fury!

Ripped from Pam's House Blend,

OMG. I usually don't agree with him on a host of issues, but what an epic serving of truth LGBT ally Al Sharpton placed on the table at the Human Rights Ecumenical Service held at Atlanta's Tabernacle Baptist Church, where he gave a keynote that smacked down the homobigoted, hypocritical slice of the religious community. It was no coincidence that the event was held to welcome the Alliance of Affirming Faith-Based Organizations.

Can you feel the burn?

"I am tired," he went on, "of seeing ministers who will preach homophobia by day, and then after they're preaching, when the lights are off they go cruising for trade...We know you're not preaching the Bible, because if you were preaching the Bible we would have heard from you. We would have heard from you when people were starving in California--when they deregulated the economy and crashed Wall Street you had nothing to say. When [accused Ponzi scammer] Madoff made off with the money, you had nothing to say. When Bush took us to war chasing weapons of mass destruction that weren't there you had nothing to say.

"But all of a sudden, when Proposition 8 came out, you had so much to say, but since you stepped in the rain, we gonna step in the rain with you."

And this...

"There is something immoral and sick about using all of that power to not end brutality and poverty, but to break into people's bedrooms and claim that God sent you. It amazes me when I looked at California and saw churches that had nothing to say about police brutality, nothing to say when a young black boy was shot while he was wearing police handcuffs, nothing to say when they overturned affirmative action, nothing to say when people were being [relegated] into poverty, yet they were organizing and mobilizing to stop consenting adults from choosing their life partners."

The Only "Speidi" Pic I've Ever Liked

Oscar '09 -- The Watching

1) Slumdog Millionaire (omg, love it, fun, epic, sad, amazing and brilliant direction from Boyle -- the best he's done. ever.)
2) Choke (If it weren't for the million sex scenes, this stunner with Angelica Huston would be on everyone's Oscar List, as usual Crewman Guy is being ROBBED)
3) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (my annual xmas day film, yay! v. good, people will be ripping off the visuals in that for years to come, 20st century steampunk meets anne rice's new orleans with ribbons of tim burton whimsy+BP=hotness.)
4) Milk (interesting new way to tell "the assassinated biopic", topical but acute; the film leads the way home)
5) Revolutionary Road (A movie that's not exactly what you think is at the beginning. Pitch perfect directing, Kate and Leo deliver and it feels embarrassing being privy but good that it's happening to them and not you; there's a chance to learn from emotional warfare. Watch For It: the scene where the "loon" stays out of focus ranting with Kate Winslet in focus)
6) The Duchess (First time I've adored Keira Knightly in years, Ralph Fiennes playing evil and a bit of girl on girl in petticoats, sweet bb jeez)
7) Cadillac Records (even if just on the strength of jeffrey wright as muddy waters )
8) Frost/Nixon (impeccable but a seemingly irrelevant re-telling with little oomph, "How Austin Powers Got Tricky Dick")

In the Queue,
Blindness, Body of Lies, Defiance, The Rocker, The Wrestler, Seven Pounds, Yes Man, Che Part One, Wendy and Lucy, The Wackness, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Hamlet 2

Found it hard to finish so far,
Gran Torino (Spike Lee dustup gives new meaning to Eastwood racist portrayal? Prolly not since he's cool as shit but I still haven't finished)
Ghost Town (I really liked Ghost Dad and I keep wishing I was watching that instead)
Burn After Reading (BP playing near retarded and Frances McDormand playing a nip/tuck patient?)
