Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2005 Well, time for yet another edition for "Entertainment Sucks!" This Week: "Batman Begins", The SAG awards, and other things -Jamie Foxx won best actor for "Ray" at this years Screen Actors Guild Awards. Hilary Swank (Who I suddenly have a crush on) won best Actress for "Million Dollar Baby". "MDB" also got Morgan Freeman best supporting actor, while "Cate Blanchett won best supporting actress for "The Aviator", and "Sideways" won the ensemble award. -Cillian Murphy (28 Days Later) will play Dr. Crane aka. The Scarecrow in "Batman Begins". -Roger Ebert has forgiven Vincent Giallo for Giallo's cancer hex after the negative review the critic gave the original cut of Giallo's "Brown Bunny". Ebert gave the final cut 3 stars, but that doesn't change the fact that Giallo is one creepy looking mother fucker. -Owen Wilson recently defended Ben Stiller after the comments New Yorker Critic Dave Denby wrote about Stiller for the Film "Meet the Fockers". Quote Densby "Stiller is not a natural comic. He's not effortlessly funny. There's nothing wrong with the features, but they don't quite go together." -The new poster for the French horror film "Haute Tension" (being called "High Tension" here in U.S.) has a new poster: http://www.horrorchannel.com/dread/modules...e&sid=879" The film will be released by Lions Gate uncut, with an NC-17 rating on June 13th -Speaking of French horror, Palm Pictures will be releasing "The Ordeal" (ie "Calvarie") for a late 2005 release for the U.S. and Canada. The festival favorite tells the tale of a male cabaret singer who finds himself stranded near an all male village of redneck psychos that make the ones from "Deliverance" look like angels. Things such as pig fucking, psychosexual torture, forced gendre bending, rape, and other such things ensue. Palm Pictures also released the underrated and little seen apocalyptic French horror drama "Time of the Wolf" last year -And finally, in a sadder note, actor John Vernon died recently at the age of 72. His credits include "The Outlaw Josey Wales","Animal House","Dirty Harry", and Hitchcocks "Topaz" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
