Another New Project For Rob

June 7, 2009 - 2:22 pm No Comments

One thing I love about both Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart is the kinds of quirky projects they pick.  Between them, they cover quirky, funny, angry, disturbing, deep, sick, enlightening, and a lot more.  You can be sure that with these two, there will always be an edge of some sort.  One thing you will never find is bubble gum–by which I mean the feel-good Disnefication of too much of the work of this generation’s actors.

Rob Pattinson has signed up for another new film, this one called Remember Me.  Rob plays a young man whose brother has committed suicide, and in the aftermath, his parents’ marriage falls apart.  Pierce Brosnan will be playing Rob’s father, and it is rumored that Lena Olin will be signing on as his mother.  Chris Cooper, Oscar winner and character actor extraordinaire, will also be in it, but I can’t tell yet what his role will be.

This is a family drama filled with pain, struggle and angst, and hopefully a dash of hope to balance it out.  That’s the sort of thing I love to see Rob doing…and Pierce Brosnan, too, for that matter.  Remember Me starts filming next week, and hopefully Rob will be free in time to start filming Eclipse in August.

Movie Trailers: How To Be

April 12, 2009 - 10:44 pm No Comments

What do you do when you’re hit by a “quarter-life crisis”? Turn your life into a hip version of The Odd Couple. At first fancying himself an “enigmatic poet,” twentysomething Art (Robert Pattinson), gradually realizes that he must take action if he’s going to escape his depressed life as a struggling musician in London. A solution comes in the shape of a book titled “It’s Not Your Fault.” Not content to just draw inspiration from its pages, however, Art invites the elderly author of the book to come live with him and his parents, which quickly becomes a painfully funny journey about dysfunction and growing up.

Cast:
Robert Pattinson, Powell Jones, Rebecca Pidgeon, Jeremy Hard

Release Date:

Jamie Lynn Spears Pregnant Again?

October 10, 2008 - 12:00 am 1 Comment

If you were the parents of Jamie Lynn Spears, you have got to hit the roof? Already a controversial mother at the age of 16, rumors are spreading around that she is once again pregnant!

True enough, the initial recourse would be to deny everything of course. She is what right now, 16 turning 17? So by the time her kids would be teenagers as well she is just around 32 to 33?

This can be surely something great to have, kids that have close age gaps with their parents, but as a teenager and becoming a mother, there are bound to be problems and one of them is maturing in time to be a responsible parent.

“Jamie Lynn is eight weeks pregnant right now, and she and her mom [Lynne Spears] are hysterical,” revealed a close source. “Neither of them knows what to do, but for now they’re trying to keep the news from getting out.”
