6th Annual Manatomy Awards


Mr. Man Announces Winners for the 6th Annual
Manatomy Awards

Celebrating Hollywood's Best (Un)dressed Today, Mr. Man revealed the winners of the 6th Annual Manatomy Awards, the only ceremony that shines a spotlight on the past year’s naked male achievements in film and TV.  “For years, nude scenes were primarily the domain of female actresses,” says Phil Henricks of Mr. Man, the world’s leading online library of every male nude scene in the history of film and television.  Millions of fans flock to the site each month.  “That has been changing as each year there are more scenes and actors to choose from. We are celebrating the fine actors who have the balls (pun intended) to go naked.” 

Winners were chosen through a comprehensive process that included the editorial, production and marketing teams from Mr. Man.  They selected five contenders for each of their 43 categories and then sat in a conference room, re-watched all the scenes, narrowed down their selections and voted on their winners.  “It got heated in the room,” admits Henricks, citing Jake Gyllenhaal in Velvet Buzzsaw as an example.  “Jake came close, but in the end, it was decided that he didn’t show enough nudity.”

The full list of winners for the 6th Annual Manatomy Awards are available now on MrMan.com.  They include:

·       Best Picture:  Sauvage / Wild, Strand Releasing

Michael's Musings

Make Lying Wrong Again

Well how about yesterday's news? Yeah, there's that, honestly I would like one day in the life of the USA to be sociopath free. One can dream, can't one?

Just Because...Winter

Hazy Shade of Winter
Jude Law
Just Because it's damn cold this ayem, Just Because warm jackets make you look fat & Just Because it's, well, Winter - Here is Jude Law bundled up in his Winter finest whilst walking around Manhattan

"Yes" nothing says Winter like this photo of Jude hitting the streets of NYC looking rather chilled to the bone I must say, and in fact I just did.

Honestly I can't wait for Winter to scram, get lost, beat it creep! Currently it is a quite chilling fourty-seven degrees here in Los Angeles with the high expected to be in the low sixties. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...!!!

Thus the heat is on and the Green Tea is flowing - 

Now is the Winter of our discontent, indeed!

Monday Motivation


For some reason I woke this ayem with the phrase: "Good Vibes Only" rolling through my mind. Thus I'm gonna take it as a sign that it should be my Monday Motivation mantra.

TBH when is "Good Vibes Only" not a mantra to have? I ask you? I said I ask you? I'm waiting for that answer...to be continued.

So focus on accentuating those "Good Vibes" today because they are the key to a day of productivity and will keep you feeling groovy for the 24 hours known as Monday.

Time for me to put my "Good Vibes Only" to work, "Yes" it's time for some of that ole Monday Motivation peeps.

Now where did I put my rhythm stick?

It's Superbowl Sunday Minions!

My Hips Are Better Than Your Hips
Jennifer Lopez & Shakira
For those of you who are observant it's the High Holy Day of Football - Superbowl Sunday...Yay!

This year the San Francisco 49ers & the Kansas City Chiefs challenge each other to a duel on the astroturf. Don your helmets Gladiators

Me? I have to actually have a vested interest in one of  the teams playing to care about the outcome. Like the years my home state team the Seattle Seahawks were in it to win it.

There is of course always the half time show extravaganza, which this year features Jennifer Lopez whose career couldn't be any hotter at present. It also features Shakira, to me, inexplicably. 

So who I am rooting for at today's Superbowl? Team Jennifer Lopez for the win!

Ready for kickoff?

Saturday Sinema: One Missed Call Trilogy

One Missed Call
An iconic trilogy of J-horror films comes to Blu-ray for the first time! Tapping into the same brand of terror as the Ring and Grudge movies, visionary director Takashi Miike (Audition, Blade of the Immortal) presents a modern, high-tech twist on that mainstay of Japanese folklore, the yurei or vengeful spirit, in the form of its own iconic antihero - the terrifying Mimiko. In the first installment in the trilogy, 2003's One Missed Call, student Yoko (Anna Nagata, Battle Royale) receives a phone message from her future self, ending with her own death scream. Two days later, she dies in a horrific rail collision. As the mysterious phone curse spreads, claiming more young lives, Yoko's friend Yumi (Ko Shibasaki, Battle Royale, 47 Ronin) joins forces with detective Hiroshi (Shinichi Tsutsumi, Space Battleship Yamato), whose sister met the same gruesome fate. But can they unravel the mystery before the clock runs out on the next victim - Yumi herself? Mimiko's curse continues to wreak bloody havoc in two sequels - 2005's One Missed Call 2 and 2006's One Missed Call: Final, in addition to spawning a TV series and an American remake. This lavish collection from Arrow Video gathers together the original trilogy and a swathe of in-depth bonus features for the ultimate spine-tingling experience.
