KNIGHTLEY STILL DOING WEIRD MOUTH THING

05.15.08 Written by Vince Mancini

Is this how lesbos do it in Britannia?

Keira Knightley, Sienna Miller, and Cillian Murphy star in The Edge of Love, a British WWII period piece whose synopsis sounds a lot more interesting than the trailer (after the jump):

The film centers around Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, his wife Caitlin and the curious real-life incident in which childhood friend Vera Phillips (Knightley) and her eventual husband William Killick opened fire on the Thomas home with a machine gun and a hand grenade. [RoS]

So I was watching the trailer, praying Keira Knightly would tuck in her goddamned bottom lip so that it doesn’t get shot off by a sniper, when she started whining “I love you,” exactly like she did in the Atonement trailer.  Almost on cue, the trailer flashed a review:  “This year’s Atonement, only better.” 

Hmm, you’re gonna have to be a little more specific.  That’s like saying, “It’s like the holocaust, but better.”  So yeah, Edge of Love.  On the fun scale it’ll fall somewhere between 5 million Jews dying and your niece’s 6th birthday party.

GI JOE IS STILL LOOKIN’ GOOD

02.22.08 Written by Vince Mancini

JFX online has these latest pictures from G.I. Joe, the upcoming movie adaptation from director Stephen “I Deserve to be Homeless” Sommers.  At left, Channing Tatum channels Ford Fairlane as Duke.  Above right, Sienna "Shittsburgh" Miller tries to forget what movie she’s in as Baronness.  And if everyone’s getting an aristocrat name, I think Sommers should be Count Suckula, or Earl Turdpeddler.

I liked Sienna Miller better in whatever movie this was.

SIENNA MILLER IS IN THE G.I. JOE MOVIE, NAKED

11.20.07 Written by Vince Mancini

Sienna Miller has joined the cast of Stephen Sommers’ (Mummy) upcoming G.I. Joe movie.  She’ll be playing the villain Baroness, Cobra Commander’s right-hand woman (meanwhile my right hand is my right hand woman – get it? Masturbation jokes are funny, LOL!).

I’m not sure how to feel about Sienna Miller.  On the one hand, there are lots of naked pictures of her on the internet, and that’s pretty cool.  She also famously referred to Pittsburgh as “Shittsburgh”, which is probably about as good as anything I’ve come up with.  On the other hand, she thinks doing movies like G.I. Joe is a good idea.  And she apologized for the Shittsburgh thing:

I want to apologize for my comments which seem to have been misconstrued and taken out of context. I was referring to the fact that we are shooting almost all night shoots on this film and none of us have had an opportunity to fully explore the city. What I have seen of it is beautiful. I came once before to visit the Andy Warhol museum whilst researching a film and found both the city and it’s inhabitants warm and gracious.  

Can you imagine if I apologized every time I called Jerry Bruckheimer a child molester?  “No, see, what I really meant was that I just saw National Treasure and was upset that, uh, I didn’t have more time to fully appreciate it.  The parts about the treasure were really really cool.“
