ALLEGED WESTWOOD PAVILION BIGOT- GEORGE LOPEZ ARRESTED, FOR DISTURBING THE PEACE,DURING BLACKJACK!

Alleged, bigoted Comedian George Lopez- was apparently arrested on February 27, near a Canadian Caesars casino.

The smug, middle aged, bastard was made ill by "Public Intoxication." He was acting like, a lush on the gaming floor.Sadly, he won’t be charged,for the families that saw him and must make decision to watch his "sainted" new FX sit-com.

It was the casino- that decide to have failed, talk-show host pinched,by the Hot Fuzz.

Lopez may have got stage fright or worry over his new TV show,which is more a business deal than a sit-com:to mass produce 200 shows in a  3 year period,than be funny or enlightening,like his last show. 

He failed to do a show at the place and is meant to be there, to do comedy tonight. Lopez has since been bonded out.

J.T. SQUASHES DIVORCE RUMORS,AT AWARDS SHOW.

J. ANI TO MOVE TO POST 9-11 NEW YORK.

EXPOSE: WHY WONDER WOMAN NEEDS TO KEEP THE REAL DEAL WARDROBE.

Don't forget that Xena, wasn't afraid to be sexy in fights, because it distracts guys (and lesbian villains too.) If she had on a lot of clothes, she rips a slit in her skirt (sometimes throwing off bulky clothes quickly,while keeping weapons and basic attire on) and kicks/punches them, while they're starring at her.

WW sexiness is a distraction, to better beat the bad guys.Both heroines do the exact same thing.It's what all lady fighters do and guys can sexualize a lady in any type of outfit,job or role. That's why she need to keep the traditional outfit.Plus, WW is the Barbie of Super Heroines, she wears a variety of outfits- BASED on the core design.

Yes, putting a armored jumpsuit  on WW will silence the critics and please the feminists,but that just turns her into lame knockoff, of any X Man based lady superhero. Then,you can't tell the difference between her and Man of Steel villain Faora-Ul,who herself was a pure evil version of the character the producers are trying to change Diana T. Prince into, for Batman V. Superman.

Also,since This version of  Faora wasn't killed at the end of Man of Steel, a change to confuse the two roles (with the audience) will be created.  Next, this undying need to turn Diana into a bitch is weird. The TV show worked because she was: willing work with men,actually friendly (when warranted) and was able to fall in love with her supposed enemy,a man-if they respected her as a woman.

A true woman uses her sexiness as a weapon, before uses her skills and smarts against her foe anyways.

Jennifer Lawrence Voted Top Money-Making Star of 2013 in Quigley Publishing Company's Annual Poll!

From PRNewswire/ -- Jennifer Lawrence has been voted the Top Money-Making Star of 2013 in Quigley Publishing Company's 82nd Annual Poll. This is Lawrence's first appearance in the Quigley Poll, and the first time an actor has gone from Star of Tomorrow one year to the Top Money-Making Star the next. After winning an Academy Award and a Golden Globe earlier this year and outstanding performances in "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" and "American Hustle," theatre owners and film buyers felt Lawrence was responsible for more traffic to movie theatres in 2013 than any other actor.
Sandra Bullock, who was in "The Heat" and "Gravity" this year, placed second on the Top Ten Money- Making Stars list. The only other time females were voted the top two spots in history was our first poll in 1932 when Marie Dressler and Janet Gaynor were first and second respectively. Since then, nine women have been voted first in the Top Money-Making Star Poll a total of seventeen years, with Julie Andrews, Doris Day, Shirley Temple and Marie Dressler winning multiple times. The Quigley Poll, conducted each year since 1932, is an annual survey of motion picture theatre owners and film buyers, which asks them to vote for the ten stars that they believe generated the most box-office revenue for their theatres during the year.
It has been long regarded as one of the most reliable indicators of a Star's real box-office draw because the selections are made by professionals whose livelihood depends on choosing the films and actors that will bring audiences to their theatres. It draws a distinction among stars that happen to appear in hit films and those stars that Exhibitors and film buyers believe actually cause an audience to come to their theatres. The Quigley Poll appears annually in Quigley Publishing Company's International Motion Picture Almanac and on our web site: www.quigleypublishing.com. Both list the results of all the Polls since 1932.

Bradley Cooper placed third and was in "The Hangover Part III" and "American Hustle." Tom Hanks, who has been one of the Top Ten draws seventeen times with five first place finishes, was fourth this year with great performances in "Saving Mr. Banks" and "Captain Phillips." Last year's winner, Denzel Washington, was fifth place, appearing in "2 Guns" and Leonardo DiCaprio, who was in "The Great Gatsby" and "The Wolf of Wall Street," was sixth.

This is the ninth year that Exhibitors have placed both Washington and DiCaprio in the Top Ten. Robert Downey, Jr. who starred in "Iron Man 3" came in seventh. Hugh Jackman made his third showing in the Top Ten in eighth place with "The Wolverine," "Prisoners" and "Movie 43."

Brad Pitt was voted into the ninth spot and was in "World War Z," "12 Years a Slave" and "The Counselor." Exhibitors recognized Melissa McCarthy's audience appeal and voted her into the Top Ten for the first time this year after a busy 2013 with "Identity Theft," "The Hangover Part III" and "The Heat." Tom Cruise has not placed in the Poll since 2007, but has been in the Top Ten 20 times since 1983, and been voted number one - the most of any actor - seven times.

Tom Hanks, Clint Eastwood, Burt Reynolds and Bing Crosby have all won five times. Clint Eastwood has appeared in the poll 21 times starting in 1968.

John Wayne, Doris Day and Shirley Temple each finished first four times, but John Wayne was voted one of the Top Ten Money-Making Stars an astounding 25 times from 1949 to 1974. Exhibitors were also asked to name the Stars of Tomorrow for 2013: one male and one female who they feel will be Top Money-Makers in the years to come. The 2013 winners are Amy Adams who was in "Man of Steel," "Her," and "American Hustle" and the ubiquitous James Franco who acted in "Oz the Great and Powerful," "Spring Breakers," "Lovelace," "Homefront" and "This is the End" in 2013 in addition to writing, producing and directing numerous films.

JIM CARREY WROTE- AN AWARD WINNING CHILDREN'S E-BOOK!

Versions for E-Reader Devices Feature Abundant Special Effects, Original Music, and Character Voices

From PR Newswire-

 

How Roland Rolls , the first book by actor/artist Jim Carrey, recent winner of the 2013 Gelett-Burgess Children's Book Award, is being released on December 17th as an enhanced e-book, according to John Raatz, project manager for Carrey's Some Kind of Garden Media, publisher of the e-version and the original hardcover.

"We've produced three versions," says Raatz. "The ones for iPad and Nook will include all of the enhancements. A third version for Kindle and other e-readers is a more straightforward edition."   The Apple-based version can also be read on iPads, iPhones and iPods, and on Apple computers equipped with their new iBook reader running on the recently released OS X Version 10.9 Mavericks operating system.
When Raatz says, "all of the enhancements," he's pointing to, perhaps, one of the most abundantly enhanced e-books for children yet produced. Carrey reads the book, voicing all of the characters and the majority of the sound effects. In addition, Carrey and his daughter, Jane, a singer-songwriter, perform four original, fully-produced songs that relate to the story and characters. There is also a variety of visual effects, movements and incidental characters (voiced by Carrey) that make the book a rollicking rich experience for readers aged four to eight, as well as "their grown-ups!" The songs are also available separately in the iTunes store now and soon through other e-tailers.
Carrey is just finishing work on his latest film, "Dumb and Dumber To," the long anticipated sequel to his iconic "Dumb and Dumber." On his occasional weekend shooting breaks, Carrey attended book signings for How Roland Rolls in New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Toronto, delighting thousands of supportive fans with autographs and photos.
How Roland Rolls , distributed by Perseus Distribution, has received broadly positive reviews and audience acceptance. Carrey, who has appeared in 33 feature length films, is one of the most successful actors in Hollywood.

CIROC Ultra Premium Vodka, Sean "Diddy" Combs, and Uber give fans one million more reasons to celebrate responsibly this holiday season.  Combs and the "Official Vodka of New Year's Eve" have teamed up with on-demand transportation app Uber, who will provide discounts for safe rides home on New Year's Day 2014.  Throughout the remainder of 2013, consumers are urged to pledge to #CIROCthenewyear on Facebook and Twitter and make their commitment to never drink and drive.  If CIROC receives 10,000 pledges with #CIROCthenewyear, then Uber will provide new Uber users with a $25 coupon code, up to a maximum total of $1,000,000.  At 12:00pm EST on January 1, 2014 Combs will personally tweet and post a special code for new Uber users to redeem their discount. The rides will then be made available on a first come, first-served basis beginning at 12:00pm on January 1, 2014.  Consumers will be able to sign up with their code at Uber.com.

The program, which marks the brand's sixth annual Safe Rides campaign, kicked off in Los Angeles on November 21, 2013, with a launch event inside the Variety Studio.  Guests who posed for a pledge photo included Sarah Michelle Gellar, Zoe Saldana, Michael Yo, Kevin Frazier, and Thea Andrews.  CIROC will also host additional pledge parties throughout the month of December in key markets including New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, Washington DC and Chicago.  To drive incremental awareness for the cause, CIROC, in partnership with Times Square Communications Worldwide, will also take over marquee billboards in Times Square and offer passersby a real-time opportunity to show their support.  Consumers will be able to post to #CIROCthenewyear and upload a photo for a chance to appear on one of these larger than life billboards.
"New Years is all about spending time with family and friends to reflect on the past year, but more importantly, start planning for what lies ahead," said Sean "Diddy" Combs who oversees all branding and marketing for CIROC. "Helping consumers begin their New Year safely is what this program is all about – reminding them that there is a true art to responsible celebration."
To further encourage awareness, all month long Combs and various other celebrities will be surprising pedestrians by collecting pledges at undisclosed locations and participating in dedicated public service announcements.  The content will be featured in the out of home advertising as well as across targeted media outlets. 
The Makers of CIROC would like to thank everyone in advance for helping us reach the 1 Million dollar goal and remind everyone to celebrate responsibly this season.  Whether you are attending a holiday party or just enjoying a night out with family and friends, if you are drinking be sure to designate a driver, call a cab or take public transportation to get home safely.

WASHINGTON D.C.'S NEWSEUM, SELLS OUT TO ANCHORMAN RON BURGUNDY.

      
From PRNewswire:

The Newseum will open its highly anticipated "Anchorman: The Exhibit," featuring props, costumes and footage from the comedy classic "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy." The exhibit, created in partnership with Paramount Pictures, opens just weeks before the film's much-awaited sequel "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" hits theaters on Dec. 20.

Visitors to the exhibit will be greeted by an 8-foot-tall revolving display case featuring the iconic burgundy business suit worn by fictional newscaster Ron Burgundy, played in both movies by actor Will Ferrell. More than 60 costumes and hilarious props from the movie will be on display throughout the exhibit, including Ron's "I'M #1" license plate, jazz flute and mustache brush.
The exhibit also features costumes and props from other members of Ron's Channel 4 news team, including suits worn by reporter Veronica Corningstone (played by Christina Applegate) and sports anchor Champ Kind (played by David Koechner) and the Sex Panther cologne used by reporter Brian Fantana (played by Paul Rudd). The stuffed prop version of Ron's dog Baxter, wearing Channel 4 pajamas, and the eyeglasses worn by weatherman Brick Tamland (played by Steve Carell) are also on display.

The movie tells the story of how a 1970s-era macho news team responds when an ambitious female reporter arrives in the newsroom with her sights on the anchor chair. "Anchorman: The Exhibit" explores the reality behind the humor of "Anchorman," and tells the story of the challenges women faced when they arrived in newsrooms. A Newseum-produced film features interviews with 1970s news anchors Connie Chung, Maury Povich and Melba Tolliver and news executive Al Primo, who is credited with revolutionizing broadcast news with the Eyewitness News format, which created teams of reporters and brought women and minorities into prominent roles in the newsroom. In addition, local TV news promotional ads from the 1970s will be on display along with photos of popular news teams of the day.

In December, the Newseum will host two events featuring stars from the "Anchorman" films. On Dec. 3, Will Ferrell will appear at the Newseum for an invitation-only event to discuss "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues." On Dec. 17, actor David Koechner, who stars as Champ Kind in both "Anchorman" movies, will make a special appearance at an advance screening of the new movie. Tickets to the screening went on sale to the public in October and sold out in less than week.
Also on Dec. 17, costumes and props from "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" will be unveiled in the exhibit, days before the sequel opens in theaters.
Visitors to the exhibit can see if they have what it takes to be a member of the Channel 4 news team, with Ron Burgundy providing intros to the Newseum's popular Be a TV Reporter experience, and budding news anchors can have their photos taken behind a replica of the Channel 4 News desk.
"Anchorman: The Exhibit" will be on display at the Newseum through Aug. 31, 2014.
