“I mean come on…he treats me like a queen.” Oh. Kendra Wilkinson Refuses To Leave Hank After Tranny Cheating Rumors Apparently, it takes more than a little surgically-created cooch to come between these two. Via RadarOnline : Is Kendra Wilkinson “dumb,” delusional, or a combination of both? The reality star admitted in a new interview with Extra that she won’t divorce cheating hubby Hank Baskett — because he’s too good of a husband. Despite Wilkinson’s recent admissions that she believed Radar’s reports about his affair with a transsexual, the reality star told Extra host AJ Calloway that she won’t be divorcing him. “I do believe Hank and I will survive this,” she said. “I will give him the benefit of the doubt. He’s just too amazing… I’d be stupid… I’d be so dumb to divorce him right now and see him with another girl… I mean come on… he treats me like a queen.” The statements echoed comments she made earlier this week to Giuliana Rancic. “[Hank] deserves forgiveness,” she said. “I’m willing to spend the rest of my life to figure this out rather than spending one night single without Hank in my life.” As Radar has reported, transsexual model Ava Sabrina London accused Baskett of having a sex romp with her in Sherman Oaks back in April. London passed a polygraph over the matter. SMH! Well far be it from us to judge two people working through the cheat instead of calling it quits . Do you think she’s right to stick around or should she take those babies and hit the road???

It’s a rough-and-tumble week for Blu-ray/DVD releases, starting out with the vengeance filled flick I Spit on Your Grave 2 (2013). This sequel to the skinfamous 1978 version has all the exploitation of the original, with Jemma Dallender spending a large part of the movie completely nude before wreaking bloody revenge. Another horror sequel, V/H/S 2 (2013), is hitting the shelves, with slightly less gruesome scenes of Hannah Hughes and Mindy Robinson topless. Finally, Francois Ozon , the director that brought us Ludivine Sagnier buck naked in Swimming Pool , is treating us to a look at the top floor on Emmanuelle Seigner in In the House (2012). There really is no place like bone! See pics after the jump!
Missing mothers, lost wives, abusive and indifferent father substitutes — Looper may be a movie powered by time travel, but its emotional fuel is abandonment. The new film from Brick director Rian Johnson is a clever, clever contraption about trading in your future to feed your present, and the lost boys and regretful men who willingly embrace such a bargain already believe they have nothing to live for or look forward to. Thirty years of kicking around with a lot of cash in your pocket looks like a pretty good bargain when you’re gazing down at it from in front of all that time, but when those last few days are running out, you might not be so ready to go. Looper may not have the bell-ringing resonance of Chris Marker’s La Jetée , one of its touchstones, but it’s a jaunty match-up of genre and character drama that’s far smarter and more finely wrought than almost anything else in the multiplexes. The film’s set a few decades in the future, where technology’s a little better and life in general is worse, at least in the Kansas metropolis in which Joe ( Joseph Gordon-Levitt ) lives. Looper ‘s setting of a midlevel Midwestern city and the ragged, lived-in feeling of its 2044 are a pleasingly off-kilter approach to its sci-fi premise. We don’t know what the government’s like in this year, or what the larger world’s become because it’s not so important to Joe, a young man who’s building up cash reserves and easing his off-hours with drugs until he’s free to move to France. Joe’s a looper, a job he explains with a matter-of-fact lack of curiosity: when time travel is invented a few years from his present, it’s instantly outlawed and used only by organized crime for assassinations. Murders will have become so hard to hide that it’s easier to send targets back to Joe’s era, where they can be neatly offed and disposed of by eager young men like our hero, guys who have accepted their own disposability. Joe’s self-interest is central to both the film’s premise and the way it avoids most of the tougher theoretical questions about time travel, paradoxes, how the technology works and whether people are using it for more ambitious purposes. He doesn’t care. He started out on the streets, and looping has provided him with a nice apartment and enough money to get high and to buy time with his favorite working girl Suzie (Piper Perabo). Like the town in which he lives, Joe’s nowhere near the top of the food chain, and has no interest in climbing. He’s just waiting on his big payout that will come once he closes his loop by killing off his future self — part of the devil’s bargain that all loopers make. Looper is built around our buying Bruce Willis as Joe’s future self, a feat that rests more on a wry impersonation by a prosthetics-aided (and very good) Gordon-Levitt than on the older actor. When the tougher and more world-weary Old Joe is sent back in time to die, he arrives with a mission in mind, but his younger self has no desire to hear it. The scenes in which the two Joes confront each other at a diner are among the film’s best. Youth and experience are unable to relate — even though they’re technically the same person — because their priorities are completely different. It’s an amusing and dishearteningly well-articulated take on how useless it would be to be able to offer your younger self advice when your younger self isn’t ready to hear it. While it’s no looper contract, we do trade in our future for present enjoyment in small ways all the time (by, for instance, taking up smoking or by spending money instead of saving it). Looper offers an even-handed look at both perspectives, even as it sends Old Joe off to make a terrible exchange on behalf of the future and follows younger Joe as he goes on the run and ends up taking shelter on a farm on which a woman named Sara (Emily Blunt) lives with her young son Cid (Pierce Gagnon). After a stylishly noir first half that’s simultaneously futuristic and retro — “20th-century affectation,” Joe’s boss Abe (Jeff Daniels) sneers at his employee’s preference for ties — Looper becomes more thoughtful and a little more jumbled in its second section, as it slows down for Joe to find some human connection for the first time in his adult life. With touches of The Terminator , the aforementioned Marker film and the inspired-by-it 12 Monkeys , a classic episode of The Twilight Zone and more, Looper is aware of its sci-fi legacy, but manages plenty of unique touches all its own. The depiction of Kansas is one, combining future tech and a farming lifestyle unchanged by the advance in time. A sequence in which Joe’s colleague Seth (Paul Dano) meets an unfortunate fate is innovative in its horror. But despite the fleet-footed flash of its storytelling, what’s most impressive about Johnson’s movie is its dark-edged faith in people being able to change despite the path on which they’ve been set. If all we’ll ever be is a product of the circumstances in which we grew up, then time travel’s almost unnecessary — the future’s predetermined. It’s choosing something new that may be as clear a sign as we ever get of a soul. Follow Alison Willmore on Twitter. Follow Movieline on Twitter.
Although the above photo of Nicole Kidman and Mia Wasikowska calls to mind a Lana Del Rey music video, it’s actually a still from something much more exciting: Vengeance trilogy director Park Chan-Wook’s upcoming horror thriller Stoker. Despite the title, which refers to the surname of the core characters, the tense, stylish trailer for the Fox Searchlight film, which you can find after the jump, does not look like a vampire tale. Rather, creepy, craven humans look like the monsters of this movie. In one scene, Kidman’s character Evie Stoker icily tells her daughter India (Wasikowska): “I can’t wait to watch life tear you apart.” In another, weird Uncle Charle Stoker (Matthew Goode) tells Kidman, “She’s of age,” presumably referring to India. “She’s of age for what?” replies Kidman with a disgusted look on her face. “You have no idea,” responds Goode in a tone that made my skin crawl. Those who’ve come to know and expect a certain level of creative, Grand Guignol bloodshed in Park’s pictures will have to wait and see, but there are a few promising indications in the trailer. When India is taunted by a classmate at school, she stabs him with a sharp pencil. There are also scenes of Wasikowska hefting what looks like a high-powered rifle. If you haven’t seen Park’s Vengeance trilogy — Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance — you might want to bone up before Stoker is released March 1, 2013. In addition to being one of Korea’s most popular filmmakers, Park’s fans include Django Unchained director Quentin Tarantino. Follow Frank DiGiacomo on Twitter. Follow Movieline on Twitter.
Michelle Williams and Katie Holmes went on to illustrious nude careers after their time on Dawson’s Creek , and now Mary-Margaret Humes (whom you may remember as Dawson’s Mom ) is following in their footsteps with a belated skintroduction to onscreen nudity. 57-year-old Mary-Margaret made her MILF-alicious nude debut last night on the HBO series Luck , where she and Patti Tippo (nude in the 1983 Charles Bronson flick 10 to Midnight ) co-star as insurance agents caught up in a gambling scam. This week the ladies lured a co-conspirator into a hotel room for a three-way, where Mary-Margaret and Patti gave us a great look at their Dawson’s Peaks before (and while) beating the crap out of their unfortunate third. Speaking of beating, excuse us for a minute… See more pics from last night’s Luck after the jump!
Luck wasn’t the only show getting lucky (sorry, couldn’t resist) on the boob tube this weekend as House of Lies and Spartacus: Vengeance (sk)introduced us to some nude faces. Nudecome r Anna Rose Hopkins guest starred on Showtime’s House of Lies this week, playing a good Mormon girl who’s saving herself for marriage…in the front, anyway. The back door? That’s a whole ‘nother story. And Spartacus: Vengeance brought us boobage from the perpetually sexy Viva Bianca , who made us rub-a-chub-chub with an excellent topless bath scene, and nudecomer Bonnie Sveen , who revealed her Roman rack as a slave whose master took her for a doggie-style ride. See pics from this week’s Spartacus and more from House of Lies after the jump!

‘It was cool to play something evil and dark,’ actor tells MTV News. By Terri Schwartz, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Christopher Mintz-Plasse in “Fright Night” Photo: DreamWorks The vampires in “Fright Night” might not sparkle in the sunlight, but star Christopher Mintz-Plasse still understands their appeal. “Now I get it, why people play vampires,” he told MTV News during Movie Awards Sneak Peek Week. “I’m like, there’ve been vampire movies. [But] that was really a lot of fun to do.” The crux of the issue, director Craig Gillespie explained, is that vampires are sexy. He made the argument that there are always vampire movies, but their popularity surges in waves. In the ’80s, there was “The Lost Boys,” in the ’90s there was “Interview With the Vampire” and now it’s “The Twilight Saga” keeping the vampire craze afloat. The key was finding a good vampire to sit at the flick’s center, and Gillespie said he always knew lead Colin Farrell would be good for the part. Farrell’s character, Jerry, is dark but also has a humorous aspect, and Gillespie was impressed with Farrell’s ability to walk that line. He knew it wouldn’t be a hard sell either because Hollywood celebrities tend to be drawn to vampire films. “It’s one of those things that actors love to do, because you’re getting to play sort of an iconic kind of character that has all this history with them. You get to have a lot of fun with it,” Gillespie explained. Mintz-Plasse certainly did. His character, Ed, gets ( spoiler alert! ) converted to a vampire in the movie, and Mintz-Plasse was psyched to whip out his inner bloodsucker. “It was cool to play something evil and dark,” he said.
