There were highs and lows for Jennifer Lawrence at this year’s Oscars. The high, winning for Best Actress in ‘Silver Linings Playbook,’ the low, taking a tumble while going to accept the award. Now on vacation in Hawaii, there’s another “high” to add to Jen’s list. To be fair, that could just be a fancy [...]

A Tribute To Shorter Guys And Their Taller Girls

Lou Russo — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 12:21:19 +0000

I was watching the Oscars with my wife and when we saw Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, we both smiled. She sort of towered over him, much like my wife does when we’re out and she’s wearing heels. Of course, I love it. Especially when we hold hands while we’re walking and I have to [...]

The show, which lasted longer than 40% of Hollywood marriages, did have it’s share of memorable moment, and it all started with the opening.

Laurie Cataldo — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 19:26:14 +0000

The 85th Academy Awards are coming up this Sunday, and there are some incredible films up for the biggest honor of the night. I’ve only seen 3 of the 9 films up for Best Picture this year: Argo, Django Unchained, and Silver Linings Playbook. All three were great movies, and I’ve heard great things about [...]

Django Unchained Lives Up to the Hype [REVIEW]

Laurie Cataldo — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 17:54:56 +0000

I’m not a huge movie person…to be honest, I usually just don’t have the attention span for them. This weekend, Duzzy asked me to finally go see Django Unchained with him…I agreed, though I was sure I wouldn’t be that into it. I forgot that Quentin Tarantino’s movies really are funny. It’s a twisted sense [...]

I am pretty sure I’m not the only person who didn’t watch the Academy Awards last night. The thing is, I’m not really a huge movie person, and when it comes down to it, I just don’t care about the awards. Am I alone?? The best part of the show is seeing who had a [...]

Whose Look Stole the Show At the Academy Awards?

Lou Russo — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 10:56:20 +0000

A lot of glamour, a lot of glitz, and a few misguided outfits were evident at the Academy Awards this year. There were also some stunning looks that stole the show. There were a few gowns that really stuck out in my mind. Sandra Bullock is always awesome and got rave reviews for her gown. I know a lot of girls must have rolled their eyes when they saw Angelina's black dress and her obvious use of her leg, but I thought it was kind of glamorous.

Which Movie Will Be 'Best' At The Academy Awards?

Lou Russo — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 11:20:39 +0000

For the past few days, I have been making my predictions for this weekend's Academy Awards, and today we focus on the "Best Motion Picture" category. There is a long list of nominees (9 to be exact), but I think it comes down to three movies; 'The Artist', 'The Descendants' and 'The Help'. I really liked 'Moneyball', but I don't think it has a realistic shot to win. So which movie do I think will take home the prize?

Who Will Win "Best Actor" Oscar?

Lou Russo — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 11:24:24 +0000

Today we're going to focus on the "Best Actor" category for the Academy Awards and I don't think my prediction is going to make a lot of girls happy along the Jersey Shore. First, here are the nominees...Demian Bichir, George Clooney, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt and Jean Dujardin. Clooney and Pitt in the same category, a girl's dream come true, right?
