A To Z Blogger Challenge 2013: Day 18 - R Is For Runaways

I have a very large array of likes and dislikes, and I pride myself on not being a sheep who follows the status quo. Today's subject for the A To Z Blogger Challenge provides me with an interesting conundrum. Kristen Stewart starred in the Runaways as Joan Jett. I think she was great. I really her. A lot. But not for the reasons most do... or don't. ya see, K Stew is kind of polarizing. Most people who like her do so on the account of her portraying Bella in the Twilight movie series. I like her in the role, but I like her more in movies like Adventureland and Snow White (and the Runaways... duh!) where she gets to show her acting chops off. Others hate her for this exact same reason... which I don't get. If you don't like Twilight, cool... I get it. But don't get down on her cause she took a very lucrative role and did it justice. People also shit on her cause she seems to be emotionless, or because she she is with Robert Pattinson. Fuck all that. i like her because when she has the right material she does act well, and I think she is gorgeous. That's that. So I am happy to pick her for the Challenge. And watching her kiss girls in movies like the Runaways always helps the cause.... lol.

I Have A Whole New Respect For Kristen Stewart

Wow... just wow. I never thought those words would come out of my mouth. I have made fun of the single-emotioned Kristen Stewart for a long time here on CCD. As someone who read the Twilight books (yeah, I read em... so what? They are good!!!) and seen the movies, I can not understand why this young actress that is making crazy paper and starring in a huge franchise is always looking so sad... it don't make any sense. While she may not have any other emotion other then emo, she does have impeccable common sense.

What am I babbling about, you ask? Well, it seems that Zack Snyder had wanted K Stew for Lois Lane in his new Superman reboot/relaunch to appear alongside opposite of the recently cast Henry Cavill. Really? Why? I don't see it... and neither does Kristen. Check out what the Daily News has to say:

 According to the New York Daily News, Stewart met with Snyder and his producer/wife Deborah to discuss the role. Snyder didn’t formally offer the role to her, but had “definite interest.” Stewart, however “ultimately passed” indicating she was “caught off guard” by the success of Twilight and wanted to concentrate on “smaller, independent films.” The best part is that the News reports Snyder felt “slighted” by the actress and that she “wasted his time.” When contacting Stewart’s publicist, all they would say was that she “did not read for the role” which could easily mean she took a meeting. Snyder’s people didn’t comment.

So Snyder wanted her for the role, and she went to hear the pitch, but immediately told him no thank you. And now he is pissy. Guess what? I think that was really brave of her. First of, Superman would have been a payday for her. Like it or not, she is an established box office draw. She would have got some big bucks either up front or on the back end. But she did not like the part. Good for her. As for not wanting to get involved in another franchise, I ask you this: Can you blame her? This whole Twilight experience must have been quite trying and exhausting. When it's all said and done, this has been her whole life for like 5 years. I'm glad she is trying to make different types of movies.. I for one loved her 'Adventureland'. Lastly, I think K Stew is a hottie... I truly love her emo ass!!! But by not casting her, it opens the door for a ton of young hot actresses to play the role of Lois Lane. Three of CCD's former OHC's (Obscure Hot Chicks) of the day, Emily Browning, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Jennifer Lawrence are all being considered... as well as ever other actress in Hollywood. This could be a career maker for someone...

All in all, I respect K Stew for saying "Thanks but no thanks". Now only if she could get Nic Cage to start doing the same... if she could do that, I would love her even more!!!

Forget Cougars, These Chicks Are Sabretooth Tigers From The Ice Age...

I came across this website entitled Kristen Stewart Wants It, and it was pretty nutty. The dude who runs the site is kind of all over the place, and his posts are a bit out there. There are tons of random face shots of the site purveyor, some celebrity news, and tons of pics featuring Kristen Stewart (I guess the dude likes her, and according to him she "wants it"... just what it is, I don't think they ever really get too!!!). But they also have some cool fan videos that they make... and that brings us to our post today.

The clip I am featuring today is entitled "50 women over 60 years old that men should want to fuck". Wow. Thats a mouthful. Anyway, the site purveyor and his boys compiled this list featuring some really hot piceces of grandma aged ass... and I gotta be honest, I'd probably tap most of them. Some of the choices are kinda out there, but that really fits the bill of this nutjob. Anyways, what do you guys think of the list? Would you do it with any of these respectable older women? Who was left off the list that should have made it? Tell us in the comment section below. Enjoy!!!

Intresting Shit From Around The Web

So here are a few things that I wanted to share with you guys last week, but never found the time to. Hope you enjoy!!!

First up, the boys over at Unreality Mag as well as a few hundred other sites published this handy guide to Kristen Stewart's reactions to all sorts of feelings... funny, they look somewhat similar, no??? This one goes out to Teressa F and all the rest of you K-Stew haters!!! (P.S.- TF, Can we get another rant please???)

Next up, did you ever wonder what masks Darth Vader might have passed on before he settled on "The Big Black Helmet of Death"??? There had to be a few choices, right??? At least he got The Emperor to help him along... his advice was always clutch... right???

Last up, we got a new video from The Killers former frontman Brandon Flowers. Now I am as much of a fan of The Killer's music as the next guy... but thats not exactly why I featured this video here. No, the reason the video is here is because it features the hot piece of ass that is Charlize Theron. Not only do you get the blonde bombshell (god she is hot!!!), but she is fighting FUCKING NINJAS for christ sake... NINJAS!!! I don't know about you guys, but thats good enough to make my blog...

Hope you guys enjoy!!!! Leave some comments, will ya...

I Like This... But Not For The Reasons You Think

Martyrs, a french horror/torture film by Pascal Laugier, is one of the most disturbing and fucked up movie I have ever seen... and thats saying a lot, since I seek out disturbing and fucked up movies out. I will not say anything about the movie other than that it is extremely graphic and a lot to handle both visually and mentally... see this movie. Like most great international movies, some studio here has bought the rights to remake it. The group heading up this project is lead by one of the producers of Twilight, and naturally he wants Kristen Stewart in the starring role. Now I know everybody is growing tired of K-Stew and the Twilight craze... but I am all for this. Here is why.

Personally, I think Kristen Stewart is kinda hot. In that awkward, alternate hot way. She is not Eva Mendes or Scarlett Johansson, but she got a certain cuteness and everygirl in her. But people are really getting tired of her woe-is-me attitude in which she seems to be pissed off all the time about the success of her Twilight films... and frankly, I am too. Be happy for yourself, you miserable bastard. You are a star!!!! Enjoy it... But I think she would be a great fit because lets just say the main character in Martyrs has a rough going of it. I will not spoil it for those of you who have not seen it yeat, but lets just say things are not all peachy keen for the star of that movie. So if she does get the role, then people who like her get to see her in a cool role... and people who hate her get to watch her get put through the fucking ringer. You have never seen the shit like Laugier put his lead actress through, so if she gets half of that... well lets just say you K-Stew haters will be all smiles (You sick fucks You!!!) Either way, I don't care who plays the role... just don't fuck up this classic movie. Thats a simple request, but a tall order for Hollywood, who often fucks these international imports beyond all recognition.

MT Disgraceful - A Rant by Teressa Farino

So the MTV Movie Awards were this past Sunday and I have to say it was quite the disappointment (not like that's a surprise nowadays with these award shows.) What made it more of a disappointment, besides the terrible movie selections up for the awards, was all the fucking cursing! In my personal opinion, I see no need for cursing at such events that are televised. No it's not cool, no you're not going to grab more viewers, and no you will not earn my respect...fo' sho'.

Anyway, so as I turned on channel 20 on my cable box, I was just in time to see Kristen Stewart and all her awkwardness. Is it just me, or is she the most awkward and annoying person to stand at a podium in a long time? This was her speech for best female performance..."uh yea so I'd like to thank Justin Liebowski, Mary Hornberger, and …uhhh (awkward pause to fix her hair, which is in a ponytail by the way, or to do some dumb finger pointing move with her hands) and that's it. Peace out!" Peace out?!? And that's it? How about thank you fans for watching my terrible acting that I act in every movie I'm in! Or thanks fans for watching me display the same characteristics in every person I play! Let's face it Kristen Stewart, you're awkward beyond belief, your boyfriend if he wasn't English, could pass for a slight re-tard, and you’re pale. Just being honest.

As I flipped between channels from the MTV Movie Awards to the NBA Finals and back, I started noticing the cursing trend. First I noticed it with some no name actress from an upcoming pointless movie saying how she wanted to fuck Megan Fox. First off, why the fuck would Megan Fox want to fuck you??! You're practically still in high school and you're ugly. If Megan Fox were to bang any chick, she'd have to be hot (unlike you), have huge breasts, and an IQ of my cat (which could be you). Get over it, you're not cool! THEN a skit involving Mark Walberg, Will Ferrell, The Rock, Eva Mendez (Who could fuck Megan Fox), and Samuel L. Jackson developed....by the way, who the HELL writes for this show? Snookie, Jwow, and The Situation? I think my 13 year old niece can write a more interesting skit in her perrywinkle pink notebook than the schmoes who wrote this debacle. I digress. So Marky Mark and Ferrell are hanging by wires above the other 3 actors cursing up a storm and I'm thinking to myself, what the fuck is going on right now?

I would like to get the celebrities in the audience honest opinion on attending these events because I would think that some of them would have more brain power than to sit in a room and have to listen to 3 hours of absolute nonsense!

After the NBA Finals were over and the Lakers lost :(….I proceeded to watch these awards. Ok so Sandra Bullock gets the generation award this year. Really?! Well, how convenient with all the controversy with this broad in the past few months, you think that was a coincidence?!?! And I'm surprised by Sandra's involvement in this fiasco because I thought she was much smarter than to fall into this celebrity world of self inflicting drama, but I guess I can be wrong from time to time. As Sandra sits in her seat, front and center to the stage, Bradley Cooper ( who could get it 100 times over in one night), Betty white(pure awesomeness at her age), and Scarlett Johansson (another waste if acting skills, but a candidate for Megan Fox to bang) presents Sandra with this award after 3 very useless speeches from friends. Friends?! You worked with all three in one movie and the movie with Bradley received a Razzi award, deservingly so. I love what Hollywood considers a good friend. Please note if I'm ever up for an award, please don't call about 90% of my Facebook friends because I only converse with then when it’s their birthday or it’s time for a meaningless catch up convo. I'm just being honest. Anyway, so Sandra gets up to receive her conveniently deserving award, makes an okay speech, kisses Scarlett (???) and heads off the stage.

Finally, the award or best and worst movie is here. And the winner is...Twilight New Moon! Shocker!! I myself was hoping for The Hangover to win, but that movie already won over my heart. :) The whole cast of this tweeny movie gets up to receive the award and Peter Facinelli takes the lead at the mic. What a mistake. This guy starts using the word fuck as if it was going to heal the herpes infection he has had since filming Can't Hardly Wait. Peter, you're how old? 35? Do you really think it’s cool at that age to use such a strong word in a speech for the best and worst movie?? No, it’s not. And you're not cool and neither is your annoying doctor character you play on Nurse Jackie. Just stick to smiling and not speaking and you'll do okay kid, thanks.

The morale of this blog is why do we subject our children to this kind of crap? Why do we continue to condone such behavior by people who should be setting examples? Why do monopoly networks like MTV get away with televising such a horrific event? At a time like this, with the oil spill in the gulf, this crap is pointless and I only hope the kids who watch this shit are smarter than we think they are.
