Every Friday the 13th, I love to post the video of all the kills from the horror movie franchise of the same title as the day. But today I wanted to see if their was someone who did a mashup of scenes from the movies to Rebecca Black’s Friday and there were plenty to find. Although there wasn’t a perfect one, I went with the one that had the most kills because they are a laugh riot like the song.
I know a lot of people think the song is deadly, but I actually like and can’t the tune out of my head. Please don’t go all Jason Vorhees me for admitting that.
There were rumors earlier today that Ashton Kutcher was now the lead contender to replace Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men and he pretty much confirmed the news on Twitter after The Hollywood Reporter said sources told them it was a done deal. Mr Demi Moore didn’t straight out say he got the job, but instead Tweeted “what’s the square root of 6.25?” Well the answer to that question is 2.5, which is the nickname of CBS’s #1 sitcom.
I like Ashton, but after hearing that Hugh Grant wasthisclose to getting the role up until two days ago, he is kind of a let down. Plus I don’t know how they are going to work him into the show and make it feel natural. He is too young to be the Harpers unknown brother because their father would’ve died way before he was born. I don’t think their mom Evelyn, could’ve hidden a pregnancy from her sons. Although they might’ve missed it because they were preoccupied with themselves. So I am not sure how he will fit into the show.
Now when it comes to him fitting in with the current cast (Chuck Lorre you better keep Holland Taylor and Conchata Ferrell and up their roles on the show), I think he is too young to star along side them. Granted he is married to a woman, who is 15 years his senior, so he might be prepared to work older people than himself. Although his new co-star Jon Cryer starred in his first movie No Small Affair with Demi Moore in 1984 back when Ashton was just 6 years old. That will be an awkward conversation.
So basically I am not loving his casting on the show, but I will probably give it a few chances to see how it all turns out. What do you think of him landing such a plumb role?
Oh and when it comes to how he broke the news, sometimes I forget he was actually Pre-med before he became a model turned actor.
BTW it really has to piss off Charlie Sheen that that kid who married the woman who was engaged to his older brother in the mid-’80s is the guy who is taking over the role he so desperately wants back?
UPDATE: Here is what Ashton’s new boss Chuck Lorre had to say about all he has been experiencing since the Sheenigans began and how it is changed him on tonight’s Vanity Card after The Big Bang Theory:
CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #345
What doesn’t kill us makes us bitter. I used to believe that to be both funny and true. Years later I learned that pain could also be the touchstone for personal growth, which of course points back to the original saying, “what doesn’t kill us makes us better.” Not funny, but perhaps closer to the truth. Or at least the truth I choose to believe in these days. So, having recently experienced a bit of pain, am I better? Well, let’s review: I think I’m fairly immune to name-calling now. I’m not sure I could have made that claim a few months ago. I’ve also come to see that the things I used to think were big deals, are not. Problems appear to be relative. If you have a big one, it makes all the others seem almost charming in comparison. And finally, when your life takes a path you could never have foreseen, it’s humbling. In a good way. It’s kind of like a friendly reminder from the universe that while you may think you have the starring role in the movie of your life, you’re actually just a bit player trying to grab a quesadilla off the craft services table when no one’s looking.
So, to sum up: I now have a thicker skin, I’m less likely to sweat the small stuff, and, perhaps most importantly, I have a renewed sense of humility. All in all, better. That being said, I still try to stay reasonably bitter in order to maintain my eligibility in the Writers Guild of America.
Before Sarah Silverman was singing I’m F*cking Matt Damon, she was singing a Bye Bye Mama. She looks the same now as she did when she was just 14 on that 1985 talent show.
Dianna Agron Tweeted, “Season 2 wrap. A remedy to the seven year itch. Finally!” What was that remedy? The Glee actress got her blonde tresses cut into a messy bob and she looks freaking fantastic. Hopefully the show will let her keep her new style for the third season because no one has a modern do on the musical dramedy. Seriously what is up with the high school show having all of its stars have out of dates looks?
BTW how cool is the time lapsed video below that she posted on her Fell Down The Rabbit Hole Tumblr?
