Just Because...Charlie's Angels

Angels We Have Heard On High
l-r
Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott & Ella Balinska
Good Morning Angels! Here is an image of the newest trio of Charlie's Angels at the premiere in Los Angeles. "Yes" it's the reboot no one was asking for, starring Kristen Stewart and two women I have never heard of.

Most notable thing about it is it is written and directed by Elizabeth Banks... Oh that Effie

So I wonder, yes I wonder, what this is going to be like. From the trailers it seems like a more grounded take on the Drew Barrymore produced version of the TV series with the same amount of levity thrown in, and more grrrrrrrl power!

I have bared witness to Tweets that have raved about it, yet there is no score or advance reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Tweets are an easy get, if you know what I mean. Reviews not so much.

Thus I find the sign of no early reviews a daunting quandary. Translation, this reboot more than likely is not good. However I am rooting for Banks, who I personally like to keep on moving as a filmmaker.

That's all! Check out the trailer for the latest CA incarnation below!

Trouble in the 90210

Torball!
l-r
Jennie Garth, Tori Spelling & Jason Priestley
So in case some of you nostalgia nerds haven't heard there is a six episode reboot of Beverly Hills 90210 coming your way. This being fact, there is also trouble in the fanciest zip code around. "Yes" trouble in the 90210.

On May 16th Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith and several senior writers quit the show. Well May 16th also happens to be Tori Spelling's Birthday. So what's a Spelling to do in such a situation? Let them eat cupcakes!

"Yep" Tori shook it off and celebrated her special day by indulging in cupcakes with co-stars Jennie Garth and Jason Priestley and posted it to her Instagram page, naturally.

Hey what else should a Birthday Girl do in this type circumstance? I ask you? I said I ask you, now answer me damn it! Whatever, moving on...

While I'm not sure what to make of a reboot that is only shooting six episodes and has behind the scenes people quitting in mass quantities, I will at for sure view the premiere episode. At the very least this sounds like a divine train wreck, you know you like to watch.

Buffy The Harley Quinn Slayer

Harley, Buffy, Harley, Buffy
Sarah Michelle Gellar

Tomorrow is Halloween, and what would the hallowed day be without an appearance by everyone's favorite vampire slayer Buffy aka Sarah Michelle Gellar? I ask you? C'mon I'm asking, gimme an answer...whatever.

See Sarah Michelle as bad grrrrrl duo jour Harley Quinn at the Good+Foundation's third Halloween bash (say that three times fast!)

With all the reboots happening on TV I personally would love to see Buffy get one as I often wonder when I am in a quandary "What would Buffy do?!"

Can you imagine Buffy still kicking vampire booty as a grown ass woman? The possibilities of a more mature Buffy are limitless, not to mention off the chart intriguing...

Happy day before the most wonderful time of the year! "No" I am not referring to Christmas although it is already being shoved down our collective throats and the high holy day hasn't even happened - Grrrrrrrrr...

Hit Me With Your Best Shot

Shoot That Poison Arrow
Alicia Vikander
The reboot of Tomb Raider opens today, thus I bring you this striking image of Alicia Vikander aka Lara Croft poised and ready to hit you with her best shot, bow & arrow style.

While I did see the original with Angelina Jolie I will be sitting this one out. Why? It has nothing to do with Vikander, it has to do with my taste changing. There was a time I would go see pretty much anything I was such a rabid movie goer. Well things have changed and I no longer have time for that.

Translation: Most movies are not that great and or can be viewed in the comfort of your own home. I am quite choosy about what I will spend $$$ on to go see in a theater...and guess what action films are not really my thing. They have to have more layers to them than fancy stunts and set pieces to entice this guy. Since most of them are that and only that, you get the pic.

Digressing a little I do like Vikander, she is a top notch actress and if anyone can breathe life into the role of Lara Croft it's her.

Best wishes Alicia I wish you all the success in the world with this, I however will wait for you next drama. 

Mic drop!

Who You Gonna Call?

Wonder if They Will Get Slimed?!

T.G.I.F! Here is the cast of the new Ghostbusters in uniform. Pretty standard as were the ones in the original.

The new all female cast, in case you didn't know already includes: Melissa McCarthy, Kristin Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.

OK, is there anyone out there who feels this film like so much else in Hollywood is an unnecessary reboot, remake, or however the Hell you want to refer to it?

Honestly the only thing that would compel me to see this are McCarthy and Wiig and some bomb ass reviews to go along with it.

But, hey it's the weekend and I'm a giver and thought people, like myself would be curious to see the gang together and ready to bust some ghost ass!

Yep, it's all about fun!
