'Avatar,' 'Hurt Locker' lead expanded Oscar parade

3/07/2010 11:40:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

Academy Awards voters are expected to go very big or very small on their best-picture winner at Sunday's Oscars. The two favorites in the expanded field of 10 best-picture nominees are the as-big-as-it-gets blockbuster "Avatar" and the critical darling "The Hurt Locker," which drew a tiny fraction of the audience its mammoth competitor pulled in.

Either movie would represent a first at the Oscars. James Cameron's "Avatar" would be the only science-fiction film ever to take home the best-picture prize. While war films have done well at the Oscars, Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" would be the first winner centered on the war on terror, a subject that has stirred little interest among movie audiences shell-shocked by news coverage of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Robert Pattinson Didn’t Want to do Twilight

3/07/2010 11:39:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , 0 Comments

ROBERT Pattinson admits he DIDN’T want to star in the Twilight movies.

The British actor — who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the smash hit film franchise — says he was keen to perfect his craft before taking part in such a high-profile project.

“At first I didn’t want to do a movie like Twilight,” he said. “I specifically hadn’t done anything that anyone would see since Harry Potter, because I wanted to teach myself how to act. I didn’t want to be an idiot. I was going to wait for another year to do two or three more little things and then do something bigger.

“Twilight came kind of randomly. It was a chance and, as I didn’t have a reputation at all, there was nothing for me to lose.”

“The producers actually asked me to take my shirt off at the audition,” R-Patz recalled. “I thought, if that’s the criteria, then you’ve got the wrong guy. I knew about the audition five months beforehand, but I didn’t want to bother getting a six-pack or doing much else at all in preparation — but looking back, I might have combed my hair. I thought that I had to be this bland guy with his shirt off who people just project ideas onto. At first I thought to play Edward in an interesting way was totally impossible.

Is There Too Much Sarah Jessica Parker and the 'City'?

3/07/2010 11:39:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

Sarah Jessica Parker doesn't know how to apply makeup in real life, she was shocked and overcome with grief at the death of Alexander McQueen, she still wishes she had become a prima ballerina, her family was involved in the Salem Witch Trials of 1692 way back in the day and DC politicos love her in red.

Oomph. That's a lot of information all at once.

See, we know all this because SJP has been ubiquitous for the past couple of weeks. She's one of the celebrity subjects on NBC's post-late-night-wars filler 'Who Do You Think You Are?' She has a new perfume out, SJP NYC, a strong floral aroma packaged in crazy colors and patterns reminiscent of the one and only Carrie Bradshaw. She visited the White House for the National Arts and Humanities Medal Ceremony, attended Fashion Week and penned late designer McQueen's obituary for Time magazine.

This begs the question, since we are nearly three months out from the May release of the much-anticipated sequel to 'Sex and the City,' is Parker jumping the publicity gun, or can fans just not get enough SJP?

It seems to be the latter, since everywhere the lady behind Carrie Bradshaw goes she gets cooed over, adored and welcomed with open arms.

Microsoft May Include HTML5 Support in Internet Explorer 9?

3/07/2010 11:38:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , , , 0 Comments

Rumors are circulating that Microsoft could announce a beta of Internet Explorer 9 at the upcoming MIX 2010 conference. The new version is rumored to feature improved support for open Web standards. The MIX 2010 conference will include at least two presentations about new, open Web standards: One, on HTML5, is entitled "HTML5 Now: The Future of Web Markup Today." Another session looks at the SVG vector graphics standard.

A shift toward open Web standards for Internet Explorer would signal a major change for Microsoft; the company has been criticized in the past for not fully supporting modern, open Web standards. Microsoft's lack of Web standards support is a major factor in the rise of third-party browsers like Firefox, Chrome, and Opera, which feature a more compliant browsing experience, and better support for developers.

Apple's iPad: Will it sell?

3/07/2010 11:38:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

The new device will fly off shelves, say some analysts; others think sales will build slowly

Apple's iPad will fly out of stores when it goes on sale in four weeks, and will build momentum through the back-to-school and into the holiday selling seasons, analysts said today.

"I expect a surge going out the door," said Ezra Gottheil of Technology Business Research. "There's a group of Apple advocates that will queue up no matter what. Apple has the most effective branding in the industry, and these people think of themselves as acolytes, they do think of themselves as the 'Mac' in Apple's 'I'm a Mac' ads."

On Friday, Apple announced that the iPad will go on sale April 3, and that it would begin taking pre-orders for the device, which is priced starting at $499, on March 12.

3/07/2010 11:37:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , , , 0 Comments

Jay is entangled in rumors non stop, and Jolin who had been rumored to have dated him also got asked whether her "first man" was him, Jolin unwaveringly says "No" , then after understanding the meaning behind this she added "this question is really stupid"

On the 5th, a reporter talked about "That artist who revealed that she gave her first night to Jay," Jolin didn't get it at first, asking "What ?!" Then he said more clearly that Wu Pei Shan revealed how she lost her virginity, then Jolin said "None of my business"

Did Wu give her first time to Jay ? Jolin looked grim and didn't answer, but the newspapers journalists asked her did Jolin herself gave her first time to Jay ? She very assuredly said "No", after they explained to her that they were talking about she said they were boring.

Jay once said that he was really tired, "Did you keep in touch ? Did you sometimes called to cheer each other up ? " reporters asked Jolin whether she was still in contact with Jay, Jolin said "We are still in contact, actually, I advised him to take a vacation now and then."
About whether she texted him to show her concern, Jolin froze for a moment and said "That is a... For now I still hadn't"

To this Jay Chou's JVR Music yesterday said: "Because this isn't a public work schedule, we can't reveal information about it."
