Scream Awards 2009: A Report From Front Row Center

Scream Awards 2009: A Report From Front Row Center

This past Saturday, October 17th, I attended my second year of Spike TV’s annual Scream Awards. Not only did I attend, but I had been hand-picked by the casting director to sit front row center for the show! As a fan-focused awards show, it’s much more enjoyable being seated amongst JJ Abrams, Karl Urban, Elijah Wood and Woody Harrelson. My favorite personal surprise of the evening came when the Best Science Fiction Actress nominees were being announced. I cheered (maybe a little too loudly for my girlfriend’s tastes) for Eliza Dushku when her name was announced, only to discover she was sitting right in front of me. She turned around and flashed me her lovely smile. Good thing my girlfriend isn’t the overly-jealous type.

As for the show itself, it seems as though the winners have already been leaked online, and the best surprises have been revealed, even on Spike’s own website. So keep in mind there be spoilers here.

Critics Split By Gender On Jennifer’s Body

Critics Split By Gender On Jennifer’s Body

So the Megan “hot Transformers chick” Fox-starring, Diablo “I wrote Juno” Cody-written movie Jennifer’s Body opened this weekend to rather weak box office (the estimate at the moment is less than $7 million). As I write this article the film is scoring 41% positive rating on the Tomatometer over at RottenTomatoes.com with 99 reviews so far. While that is certainly not a good score, it’s far from that of some recent stinkers (Final Destination: 27%, All About Steve: 6%, Sorority Row: 26%).

Screen Rant on The Movie Blog Podcast

Hey gang, yesterday John Campea of TheMovieBlog.com was kind enough to invite me to be a guest on his Movie Blog Podcast. John’s podcast is the longest-running movie podcast on the net (and the third oldest ongoing podcast, period).

Also on the podcast was TMB regular guest Christina Warren of Mashable.com and FlickCast.com. Here are the topics we covered:

  • Jennifer’s Body
  • Edward Norton claiming no cameo in Iron Man 2
  • X-Men: First Class casting
  • Nic Cage leaving Green Hornet, and the mess that movie seems to be in

We were going to cover a couple more items but we had so much fun just with those above that we ran out of time.

You can download it directly here or you can head over to The Movie Blog to listen to it (but do come back and tell us what you think!).

I’ll be doing another guest appearance on a well-known movie site’s podcast soon!

Jennifer’s Body Review

Short Version: Overall Jennifer’s Body is just a boring movie – punctuated by occasional humor and fewer scares.


Screen Rant reviews Jennifer’s Body

Let’s just get this right out of the way: Megan Fox does not appear naked in Jennifer’s Body.

So if that’s the main reason you want to go see this film, you’re out of luck. If the other reason you want to see the film is for the girl/girl makeout scene – there is a very brief scene of a kiss between Megan and Amanda Seyfried, and it’s shot in such an extreme close-up that for all I know they might have had “stunt doubles” do it.

Now that we have that out of the way, on to the review.

Bloody Good Red Band Trailer for ‘Jennifer’s Body’

Bloody Good Red Band Trailer for ‘Jennifer’s Body’

From the mind of Diablo Cody (who wrote the indie-success Juno) comes the teen-horror film Jennifer’s Body, starring Transformers hottie Megan Fox. The film sees Fox swap running from giant robots to preying on horny high school boys as a demon-possessed cheerleader. It sounds like a neat horror premise that promises to have a good mix of horror, raunchiness and dark/tongue-in-cheek comedy.

Today we get the first ever trailer for the film – a red-band, NSFW trailer that makes it clear what kind of film Jennifer’s Body is turning out to be.

Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried in ‘Jennifer’s Body’

Since earning near unanimous praise for her quirky teen pregnancy tale, Juno, screenwriter Diablo Cody has been a hot commodity in Hollywood. So naturally, when Cody teamed with Megan Fox (who is coming hot off the heels of the immensely successful but critically panned Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen) for the teen-horror comedy Jennifer’s Body, people were quick to pay attention.
