Yesterday, I was at an audition and had to rant about something movie related.
I randomly dove into a rant about Marisa Tomei’s recent performance in “When The Devil Knows Your Dead” and how she constantly plays the sexy chick biting her lip and in the nude.
Yep, it was kinda random and weird counting when I impersonated her whole biting lip act and sultry groans.
Yousers! Yes, some days I wonder:
Where’s my freakin’ filter?!
After some research, I found I’m not alone in my thoughts. Many reviews felt the same thing:
Travis Mackenzie Hoover
The actors all do their best to occupy the gaps, filling the frame with wonderful, often mordantly hilarious, asides — even Marisa Tomei, whose performance here will probably be overshadowed by her copious nudity.
Matt Pais, Metromix
It’s tough for a movie that starts out with a doggy-style sex scene in Rio to maintain momentum, and “Before the Devil” isn’t nearly as carefully sculpted as Tomei (she’s 42!).
I have to give her kudos though- she looks freakin’ hot. I just don’t think her performance deserves an Oscar nomination though… If you haven’t seen the movie yet, Philip Seymour Hoffman probably delivers his second best performance next to Capote.
Here’s the trailer:

What a week!
I was in San Francisco shooting segments for LX TV’s W Hotel Series. While I was there, I got to stop by the Wired magazine offices (one of my favorite mags!) and got a tour thanks to Senior Product Editor Mark McClusky. I also got to catch up with my friend, Amy Grill, who works at Current TV. I’ve known about Al Gore’s Current since it began as IndTV back in the day. The network is all about VC2 (Viewer Created) programming. It’s pretty amazing to see how it’s grown!
P.S. Check out this Current channel called The Man Den - only guys could do this crazy stuff.

Omg! I just got the best freakin’ press release about The International Day of the Ninja.
I didn’t even know there was one, but anything involving the word ninja just sounds awesome!
READ BELOW AND CHANNEL YOUR INNER NINJA:
The International Day of the Ninja is an ancient celebration of deadliness and sneakiness. It is the only day in which ninjas appear in plain sight and don’t kill everyone that crosses their path. On Wednesday, December 5th, people of all skill levels are encouraged to dress as ninjas, engage in ninja-related activities, and tell people about their amazing and awesome ninja missions. Many have compared International Day of the Ninja to International Talk Like a Pirate Day. There is no comparison. Pirates are silly, drunken fops compared to the incredible and masterful Ninjas.
This year the guys of Ask A Ninja have given a destination point for ninjas worldwide! On Wednesday, December 5th Kent Nichols and Douglas Sarine will host the official “International Day of the Ninja” party at the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles.
In addition to the Ask A Ninja.com “Ninja” answering LIVE questions from the crowd, there will be special guest performances by geek-cult comedian Patton Oswalt and musical funnymen Hard ‘n Phirm.

What does a network do after the success of a show like Sopranos? They go in the completely other direction with couples who actually talk out their frustrations and have pretty decent bodies and bikini waxes! I’m referring to HBO’s Tell Me You Love Me, which I’m watching right now. In less than an hour, I’ve already heard many moans/squeals and seen two butts, crotches (male and female), boobs and lots of other stuff I don’t think I should say. Wonder what that casting was like?
Here’s a montage of some hot highlights:
Jing Jang- It’s all natural, smells greats and works like a charm on every part of your body.
Plus, the line was started by Patrick Dempsey’s wife.
one word: YUMMY!
