Our Nominees For The ‘Maxim’ Hot 100 List

12 May 2009 1:27 PM, PDT | MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news »

The Maxim Hot 100 list was mostly released today. The annual rundown of famous female eye candy sends men to the Internet each and every year. The top 10 won’t be revealed until Wednesday, however. So we got to thinking — and studiously researching — who wasn’t included among the first ninety gorgeous ladies.

10: Jordanna Brewster. She’s fast, she’s furious and she’s graced their pages with her hotness before. The dark-haired dark horse makes summer even hotter at #10.

9: Gisele Bundchen. Pros: amazingly gorgeous and successful international lingerie supermodel. Cons: already married to the mister wonderful of the sports world, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Her marital vows keep her held down here at #9.

8: Evan Rachel Wood. She may or may not still be in a relationship with Marilyn Manson — I honestly can’t remember or tell anymore. In fact, their status may change between now and Wednesday »

Why Asian Directors Fail in Hollywood: Jackie Chan

10 April 2009 9:39 AM, PDT | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »

As stated in my introductory post [1] for Killer Imports [2], I wanted to write some posts other than reviews. This post addresses a topic that I’ve always wondered about. I was tempted to add the word "always" to the title of this article, because I can’t think of a single Asian director who has succeeded in Hollywood. When I say Asian, I should qualify that I mean directors who were not born on American soil. And when I say succeed, I mean in both critical and financial terms, and more often than not, these two ways of judging movies don’t go hand in hand. And of course, I’m generalizing. I admit I am also comparing their Hollywood films with the films they have made on their own soil. In a sense, this article is probably being unfair. In some cases, these Asian directors are hired to recreate »

Jackie Chan's New Movie Too Violent for China

22 February 2009 12:17 AM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

One of my favorite personal Hollywood stories, and I don't have many, is sitting across from Jackie Chan during the junket for The Tuxedo. I know. And he felt exactly the same way.

Because there's very little of what I associate with Jackie Chan in that movie, I didn't ask him any questions about it, exploring instead his classics like Legend of Drunken Master and Police Story. He was happy to talk about them, and the freedom he enjoyed while making them, to the point that he said at the end of the interview - in front of the studio folks - "All my Hong Kong movies better than my American movies." Gotta love a guy trashing his own film.

I have another favorite story, one about Jamie Foxx refusing to look at me during an interview, but we'll save that until The Soloist comes out.

Anyway, I mention Chan's »
