Noah Centineo Three More Times

Noah Centineo was apparently having none of my "innocent" fan-girling out over his hair earlier -- see how less than two hours later he's gone and turned my filthy mind back up to eleven with an extremely hot  new photoshoot for Behind the Blinds magazine (via)? My goodness, Noah! You scoundrel! We only have a couple of photos right now (I will surely share the rest when we have them) but they're all making me spiral (in the sexy way) so hit the jump to check them all...

Finally Brutalist Vinyl!

I had mixed but mostly positive feelings about Brady Corbet's Oscar-nominated epic The Brutalist -- read my review here -- but one of its absolute tippy-top highlights of the movie is its astonishing also-nominated score from Daniel Blumberg, and I have been screaming at anyone who will listen that they need to drop the vinyl since I saw the movie all those many months ago. And today I got my wish! The pre-order for it just went up, click here and buy it and they will send you a copy on May 30th. Looks like a gorgeous perfectly designed package too -- they did right by it! 2024 was a terrific year for film music -- I think the scores for Challengers and Conclave are just as good and I've had trouble choosing between the three all awards season long. But I really think this one might win. It's so good.

Back Up Mick's Creek

The Wolf Creek horror franchise is so underrated that I don't think most people even think of it as a "franchise" -- the original 2005 film is a masterpiece as far as I'm concerned but I feel as if most people's connection stops there when it shouldn't, since the film's 2013 sequel is a blast and the 2016 series that lasted two seasons is also fantastic. They're all good to great! Every bit of it! Anyway that makes me excited to read the news this morning that they are making another Wolf Creek movie -- horror icon John Jarratt will play the savage Outback serial killer Mick Taylor once again, while being joined by Laura Gordon and slab-o-man Jay Ryan, seen above. (Funny enough I actually went looking for a photo of Ryan to use for this post and realized I'd ogled him here before when he got cast as the older version of Ben in the second film of the It franchise.) Director Greg McLean will only be producing the film, not directing -- Sean Lahiff, whose work has mostly been in editing (he edited Wolf Creek 2 as well as Natalie Erika James' killer 2020 horror movie Relic) will be directing. Oh and its title is Wolf Creek: Legacy. Here is how they describe the plot:  

"Wolf Creek: Legacy follows a family of American tourists who wander innocently into Mick Taylor’s hunting grounds…. when the parents sacrifice themselves to save their children, the kids find themselves alone, lost and hunted in the vast Australian wilderness."

Okay so what I am realizing from reading that is we might not want to get too attached to Jay Ryan's character haha. But Mick versus kids! That already sounds deeply fucked up, given what a horrific sadist that character's been over the years.  I'm in!

Noah Centineo Five Times

I consider Noah Centineo's gorgeous wavy pile of perfect hair to be a balm for the mood -- staring at it makes me feel better and I hope it will work similar miracles for you. Obviously staring at other parts of Noah does the trick too but I am feeling surprisingly innocent today -- I suppose the state of the world has me vulnerable, god forbid! -- so let's be simple, pure, G-rated. These photos are from Sharp magazine (thx Mac) -- there's an interview too, right here -- and you can see them all (with a cameo by his Recruit co-star Teo Yoo!) right after the jump...

Cooper Koch to save the day...

Smoke All of Them If Ya Got Them

Quiet day, I know -- what little of it I haven't spent doom-scrolling I spent working on a really difficult-to-write Sundance review (and yes that photo of Tom Blyth seen there above is a clue) and then suddenly it's 4:30 somehow. Just a hard day all around but don't worry about me -- I'll manage to pull myself out of this gloom eventually so I can get back to distracting y'all from it. We all need a good wallow now and then -- especially these days. Let yourselves wallow! Just promise yourselves it's temporary because we need each other, now more than ever. 

I am having trouble writing, getting up, putting one foot in front of the other. Existing feels absurd

Good Morning, World

Male model turned The Gentlemen actor Harry Goodwins gave us a little boxing show from the sauna over the weekend on his Insta -- what a guy! Not sure if he'll show up in that Guy Ritchie series in the second season but this sure makes me hope so. Here is the big grautiotous post we did for him back when that show was airing its first season, and below is a bonus photo because because. Because! Happy Tuesday.

... And Thank Goodness For That

Who went to see Heart Eyes this weekend? 

Or maybe you're saving it for Valentine's?

Here is my review ICYMI.

Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

 ... you can learn from:

Wild at Heart (1990)

Lula: Dell said that trust in the spirit of Christmas was destroyed by ideas being controlled by aliens wearing black gloves. These aliens would get Dell to do all kinds of things. Then he'd carry on about the weather, talk about how rainfall is controlled by aliens on earth. Aunt Rootie told Dell that one day he would realize that the alien wearing the black gloves was him, and him alone.

Ain't that the truth.
A happy 58 to Laura Dern today!

Meet Barley Keoughan

Two of our favorite working actors with fairly similar names -- namely Barry Keoghan and Riley Keough -- who have both worked with Andrea Arnold previously and to great effect (him in Bird and her in American Honey) are next teaming up together! They will star in the next film from Beanpole director  Kantemir Balagov -- as if we needed further proof that these two are the real deal, seeking out real filmmakers making challenging works of art, there we are. I personally felt mixed on Beanpole but it was striking nonetheless and it certainly made Balagov one to keep an eye on. The new movie will be called Butterfly Jam and it's about "a tight-knit U.S. community of Circassian immigrants and a complicated relationship between a father and son, in which the son imbues his father with qualities he doesn’t actually possess." Okay! I'll watch that. And since we're here already hit the jump for a couple bonus shots of Barry that I've never posted before...

Good Morning, World

Nothing like a metallic leather codpiece to kick off a Monday morning the right way -- everybody say thanks to actor Zane Phillips for knowing what we need! This photo-shoot's for Numero Netherlands magazine (via) -- what was it I said last week when I posted that video of Gus Kenworthy porky-pigging it for charity? Oh right -- out gay celebrities just know what we need better. And that applies to everything. Whether it's porky-pigging it for charity of wearing metallic leather codpiece to kick off a Monday morning or everything in between! Now listen to this gay and hit the jump for the entire fetish-forward photoshoot...

Mason Gooding's Pointy End

While you can never go wrong with watching the original My Bloody Valentine every February 14th it's nice to have a few options, so it was cool of Werewolves Within director Josh Ruben to give us a new one with his rom-com meets slasher Heart Eyes, starring the gorgeous Mason Gooding and Olivia Holt, that is out in theaters today -- click on over to Pajiba to read my thoughts upon it! Honestly Valentines is my second least favorite holiday (after New Years ugh) so watching lovers be butchered is always my kind of way to celebrate. But you do you! 

This Valentines Day remember there is a slot for every hole!

Kyle Gallner One Time

Jacob Elordi's Gay Spring

Deadline is reporting today that On Swift Horses, the movie that has Jacob Elordi and Babylon star Diego Calva falling hot and heavy for one another, has found itself a release date -- April 25th! I told you about this movie right here last fall before it played at TIFF -- I purposefully avoided everything that came out about the film (reviews etc) during that film festival because I am keeping myself pure as a virgin for my boys. Just this once. The film also stars Daisy Edgar-Jones and Will "Leather Daddy" Poulter and it was written and direced by Daniel Minahan who made the terrific 2001 movie Series 7: The Contenders, which I forgot existed until right this minute -- remember that movie??? I should see that one again! Now there's a movie that deserves a good boutique-label blu-ray or 4K upgrade stat. Minahan has worked on mostly TV stuff since then, including Game of Thrones and Fellow Travelers. Let's hope he carries those series' sexposition exploits up onto the big screen!

I Would Say 'Never Forget"...

... but I have already forgotten.
