Totally talented but definitely not gay actor Kevin Spacey and his definitely not boyfriend with a popped collar and matching shoes were just hanging out the other day, doin what bros do.  Namely, staring at The Big Penis book, a coffee table book about big penises.  Many thanks to RoboPanda, who also directs us to an Amazon review of said literature…

Oh dear. I am a 70-year-old woman and I just happened across this big penis book in my son’s room. My son is 45 years old and still single. I think he might be gay. That said, his big penis book is now in my room under my bed. So now my 45-year-old single son is probably gay and angry. Well, he should get a job anyway or at least go find some real penis and stop reading about them in books like this. Good Lord this is a big penis book. And I love a big penis. And so does my son, apparently. I give this book ten thumbs up. I can’t believe I never knew he was gay. He should get a job. Maybe as a dancer. Anyway, if you like a big penis, you will like this big penis book. Lord there are big penis’s in this book. I mean big. Oh dear.

I know what you’re thinking, but Kevin Spacey is 49, you jerks.  And I’m not in The Big Penis book.  I was, uh, busy that day.  They definitely called me though.  I was probably the first person they thought of.

After the jump I’ve got the full-length trailer for Recount, HBO Films’ send up of the 2000 Florida election debacle.  It stars Kevin Spacey, Denis Leary, Tom Wilkinson, and Laura Dern – whoring it up as that whore Katherine Harrison (pictured). It premieres May 25th on HBO.

Hollywood producers know that there’s nothing we Americans like watching more than movies about the breakdown of our democracy.  It’s like when Tom Petty wrote all those kickass songs about our crumbling infrastructure.  Anyway, this whole mess could’ve been avoided by not allowing Floridians to vote like I suggested years ago.

This is the international trailer for 21.  I posted another trailer for it earlier, but this one has more footage.

Starring Kevin Spacey and directed by Robert Luketic – who also directed Legally Blonde, Monster-in-Law*, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!, and, *snicker*, Titsiana Booberini, – it opens March 28. It’s based on a book called Bringing Down the House:

The fact-based story about six MIT students who were trained to become experts in card counting and subsequently took Vegas casinos for millions in winnings.

So let me get this straight, Hollywood would have us believe that a math club at MIT would have one Asian, Kate Bosworth, and no Indians?  I call bullshit.

*Known as Das Schweigermonster in Germany – which would’ve been a way better title than Cloverfield

Newspapers in Florida have posted a couple pictures from the set of Recount, starring Laura Dern, Kevin Spacey, Ed Begley Jr. and John Hurt.

HBO is shooting the movie Recount in the town where the behind-the-scenes decisions were made and where the decision-makers are expecting as much Hollywood spin as political fact from it all.

”They won’t be able to resist overdoing it because of Katherine Harris and because the way it usually happens is not the way it usually looks in the movies,” said J.M. ”Mac” Stipanovich, a top advisor to the former secretary of state during the recount.

A good example of the Hollywood-ization: Actress Laura Dern, playing Harris, appeared in pancake makeup and what appeared to be an over-stuffed bra while riding a horse, in a replay of Harris’ famed rodeo appearance when she ran for Congress — two years after the recount. [Miami Herald]

Yes, I agree with the guy named J.M. who goes by "Mac."  Hollywood sure does have a way of bending the truth.  In case you don’t remember, Katherine Harris was the Secretary of State in Florida during the 2000 election recount.  She went on to lose the 2007 congressional election when people realized she was actually a slutty old chick on a horse.
