2013 Emmy Nominations: Who Got Snubbed?

The 2013 Emmy nominations are in. And so is the outrage that accompanies these annual nods. While many TV fans are happy to see Kerry Washington of Scandal or Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad receive love from the Academy, many are equally baffled over those who were left off the list. No Jake Johnson? Nothing for Parks and Recreation? A total absence of Orphan Black and emerging superstar Tatiana Maslany?!? Try to keep your cursing to a minimum and vote now in the following poll: WHO WAS THE BIGGEST EMMY AWARD NOMINATION SNUB?   Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) Jake Johnson (New Girl) Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) Monica Potter (Parenthood) John Noble (Fringe) Timothy Olyphant (Justified) Katey Sagal (Sons of Anarchy) Other (Cite in Comments) View Poll »

Bar Refaeli’s Shitty Modeling Campaign of the Day

This is what we call Bar Refaeli falling off fucking hard. It is safe to say that her modeling career is near to a fucking end and that she should probably take up some of these millionaires and A-Listers to get knockedup, because when a bitch agrees to do campaigns that make her look like this, I’m talking the flyer for the local fucking poor person store, it’s the equivalent of Jack Nicholson or fucking any other Academy award winner doing a testimonial on an infomercial or a fucking herpes ad. Whatever is going on here, is not top modeling, she looks like shit, and even if this was a favor for her friend or family’s clothing line, she shoulda refused, it’s the worst I’ve seen her.

Iran Files Lawsuit Against Argo

Iran is filing a lawsuit against Argo , and while director Ben Affleck was snubbed for Best Director at the Academy Awards, hopefully he can at least win this. The state-run press is apparently going after internationally-renowned lawyer Isabelle Coutant-Peyre. The suit claims the film presented an Iraniphobic portrayal of the historical conflict. The film was admittedly pro-America, which is a tad surprising considering Affleck’s liberal activism and general anti-war disposition. But, come on, if you’re gonna sue the guy for a movie, let’s start with Gigli . That said, Iran really has no legs to stand on here. Calling Argo propaganda is kind of a laugh coming from a country whose president famously claimed there are no gay people there. Also, a dangerous precedent could be set here. If countries can sue movies, the next thing you know, restaurants will start suing iPhone apps, book clubs will start suing sailboats, laundromats will start suing soggy fries. Slippery slope, people! Slippery slope!

Say Hello To My Metal Friends: New ‘Iron Man 3’ Poster Reveals Alloyed Forces

A new Iron Man 3 trailer will hit the Internets on March 5.  In the meantime, Yahoo! has posted this exclusive new poster, which depicts an army of iron men rising behind a clearly cheesed-off Tony Stark ( Robert Downey Jr. ) whose armored suit is behaving like an iPhone that was accidentally dropped into a toilet. According to SlashFilm , this reveal may be a reference to the rumored climax of the movie in which Stark summons some multiple metal wingmen to kick some Mandarin  pu pu platter, or whoever it is that’s causing all the trouble in his life.  CHECK OUT MOVIELINE’S GALLERY OF IRON MAN 3 POSTERS The website also reports that a snippet of that iron-army scene will likely be featured in the trailer that drops next week, which will be the last one before the movie opens on May 3. Meanwhile, Yahoo! offers this interpretation of the poster. But what’s even more intriguing than the damaged suit he’s wearing are the seven he’s not. Streaking into the sky behind him are more armored suits, and while we don’t get a very clear look at them, they don’t appear to be any we’ve seen in the previous films. The one directly above Tony’s right arm has a grey and gold finish with spiky shoulders. Another directly behind his left shoulder is a bulkier suit with a gold, white and black appearance. Could this be the rumored “Deep Space Suit” fans have been buzzing about? A photo of an upcoming toy was released in late January with that description, which lead some Marvel acolytes to wonder if Tony might take a trip out into the cosmos, perhaps to meet up with the Guardians of the Galaxy , another comic-book team that will be getting their own movie in 2014. I don’t see Rocket Raccoon or Groot, who are both supposed to be part of the GOTG standalone, so I’m skeptical, but what do you think?  Let me know in the comments below.

EXCLUSIVE: ‘War Witch’ Star Rachel Mwanza Sees Dead People In This Harrowing Trailer

I was disappointed to learn that War Witch ‘s remarkable star, first-time actress  Rachel Mwanza didn’t get to meet her idol Beyoncé    when she traveled to Los Angeles to attend the Academy Awards on Sunday. I hope that the film’s producers and Sasha Fierce’s handlers figure out a way to make it happen.  Just think how good it would be for Beyoncé’s brand. One of those handlers should get the pop star and her husband Jay-Z to watch Kim Nguyen’s quietly powerful film about Africa’s orphan soldiers of war. It’s currently available via VOD and will open theatrically on Friday, March 1. Here’s a trailer to encourage the First Couple of Hip Hop.  In this scene, Mwanza’s character Komona earns her War Witch title after the rebel army that has just dragooned her into its ranks sends her onto the front lines to scout out the enemy’s position. There, she encounters the ghosts of her dead parents who alert her to the enemy’s presence.

Naomi Watts Oscars Dress: Stunning, Even For Liev Schreiber

Naomi Watts’ dress at the Academy Awards was a real head-turner. The British-Australian beauty always carries herself with unmatched, understated elegance, the kind that makes her a natural fit to play Princess Diana. She LITERALLY took our breaths away (and nearly shut down Twitter) last night, though, in a gray Armani gown with an off-center cut along the bust-line Even her longtime partner Liev Schreiber had to document this: How did Naomi Watts’ gown compare to with some of the other fashion standouts of the night, such as Jessica Chastain , Kristen Stewart and Kerry Washington ?
