‘Hunger Games’ Hottie Alexander Ludwig Poses Shirtless with a Puppy (8 photo)

24 jul 2013 17:01

All that talk of Peeta vs. Gale and who’s hotter and who should Katniss pick and blah blah blah — we seem to have forgotten about another sexy guy from the cast of ‘The Hunger Games’: Alexander Ludwig. Ludwig recently got rid of his pesky shirt and picked up an adorable puppy for a new photoshoot for Abercrombie & Fitch. And really, there are few things as gratifying as looking at a hot, shirtless guy as he holds a cute, furry little friend. This tells us many things. First, the removal of the shirt says, “Hey, I’m comfortable getting naked,” which means he has confidence. Second, it says, “I am ripped. Look at this body and tell me I am lying.” (He is not.) And third, by holding a cute animal, he’s saying, “I am a sensitive man, and I like baby animals, which means I like babies. Say hello to your ovaries for me.” Ludwig played Cato, the male tribute from District 2 in the first ‘Hunger Games’ movie. Yeah, we’d fight to the death if we could hang out with this dude, too.

When you look at 21-year-old actor Logan Lerman, it’s hard not to have Michael Jackson’s ‘Pretty Young Thing’ pop into your head. (Go ahead. Try it. We’ll wait right here.) You probably recognize Logan Lerman from a ton of movies — the young actor is a rising star, and is finally starting to be taken seriously thanks to his role in last year’s ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower,’ in which he played depressed protagonist Charlie, whose new school friends help save his life. Makes you want to grab the tissues already, right? He’s also the star of the ‘Percy Jackson’ movies, based on the young adult novels, which are like Harry Potter, but with Greek mythology. The newest film, ‘Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters,’ hits theaters this August. Lerman got his start as a kid acting with Mel Gibson in both ‘The Patriot’ and ‘What Women Want,’ and has appeared in films like ‘Gamer,’ ‘The Three Musketeers,’ and the upcoming epic ‘Noah,’ from acclaimed director Darren Aronofsky. In his downtime, Lerman plays music (piano, guitar), and toys around for fun in a band with his former ‘Jack and Bobby’ co-star Dean Collins. Lerman says his band isn’t serious, but he does have one serious aspiration: to be the head of a movie studio someday. We’re good with that. Have you seen the dudes in charge of making movies? They could use a hot guy like Lerman around to improve the scenery.

Actor Tom Hiddleston Has Classy British Style We Melt For (8 photo)

24 jul 2013 16:57

British actor Tom Hiddleston — you probably know him best as Loki, Thor’s brother and enemy in ‘Thor’ and ‘The Avengers‘ — is giving us a very sexy reason to watch comic book movies with his classy good looks from the other side of the pond. In ‘Thor’ and the upcoming sequel, ‘Thor: The Dark World,’ Tom Hiddleston plays Loki, a mischievous god and brother of the mighty Thor (Thor has that hammer, so). Loki is always up to no good, and in the new movie, set to hit theaters this November, he’s probably the most evil he’s ever been. But he’s deliciously evil! It’s hard to hate him when you look at his face. Hiddleston is a handsome devil, that’s for sure, with killer blue eyes and style for days. And if comic book movies aren’t your thing, you can check Hiddleston out in a number of other movies, including Woody Allen’s ‘Midnight in Paris’ (with Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody), in which he plays classic author F. Scott Fitzgerald, or in ‘The Deep Blue Sea’ (not the shark movie, but you should just watch that for fun anyway), where he’s a heartbreaking cad who crushes Rachel Weisz’s heart. It’s super sad and totally the kind of thing you’ll need to talk to some food about. In the meantime? Take a look and enjoy.

Despite winning an Oscar earlier this year, Jennifer Lawrence still freaks out around other celebrities — this time when she ran into actor Jeff Bridges at San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday (July 20). At around the 2:25 mark in the video, a nervous and breathless J-Law is pushed toward Bridges — who’s giving an on-camera interview — and runs away because she doesn’t want to intrude. But then Jeff sees her and wants to say hello, so the reporter invites her to ask the actor a question. (Way to think on your feet, reporter dude!) Lawrence obliges, but not without stumbling — verbally, not physically this time — and then goes all fangirl on the ‘Big Lebowski’ star. It’s nothing short of adorable.

We’ve never actually wondered what would happen if you fired a gun underwater, but now that we can see it, obviously we’d really like to find out. Here the Slow Mo guys have set up their swimming pool to film firing a gun underwater at 27,000 frames per second. To give you an idea of how slowed down that is, the standard rate of frames per second in film is 24. So this is more than 1,000 times slower. Pretty cool, although we don’t recommend firing off a few rounds in your own pool.

Pop star and SWAG ‘bag Justin Bieber purchased his pet capuchin monkey, “OG Mally Bieber”, back in March, just in time for the launch of his European tour. But when you’re 19-years old, you tend to forget things like the proper paperwork for bringing wild animals from country to country, so poor Mally was confiscated by the German government within days of Bieber getting him. The country’s officials gave the singer until May 7 to present them with the proper paperwork so he could reclaim his "beloved" new pet and continue about his tour. Except a funny thing happened on the way to the monkey detention center – Bieber never responded and just left Mally in Germany for good. Fortunately, the German officials have found a new home for the young monkey and he’s already the king of the Serengeti Park in Hodenhagen.

Japanese artist Kazuki Yamamoto has got the Internet buzzing about his 3D latte art again – this time he’s back with a very impressive Salvador Dali-inspired foam sculpture. The latte foam in the cup is shaped as a melting clock in Dali’s The Persistence of Memory. The clock, however, is not the only new 3D latte artwork by Kazuki since the last time we featured him on our site. He has a very active twitter account with more than 110K visitors where he tweets his latest latte art creations. Kazuki serves this kind of coffee for the visitors of the Cafe10g in Osaka, Japan. 26-year-old artist became an Internet sensation after the world discovered his 3d coffee foam sculptures: besides rising up in their own cup, some of them even reach out for others. Before he developed this technique, Kazuki used to create some incredibly detailed flat artworks on the coffee foam, with his subjects varying from portraits of famous people to cartoon characters. The artist dreams of opening his own cafe in Tokyo one day – gotta admit, this business definitely sounds like his cup of tea… erm, coffee!

If Peeta and Katniss (given the hilarious mashup name Peeniss by fans) are your thing, there will be plenty of angst in the upcoming ‘Hunger Games: Catching Fire’ film. But since there will also be a lip lock between Katniss and Gale (aka Kale), that should make the other half of the fandom happy. If you’re in that latter group, the brand new theatrical trailer has some Jennifer Lawrence on Liam Hemsworth action just for you. While at San Diego Comic-Con promoting the upcoming film on Saturday, July 20, Lawrence talked about a gross kiss between her and co-star Josh Hutcherson (warning: it contains some pretty unsexy bodily fluids) and discussed the wild parties the cast held while filming in Hawaii. “[They] were so weird,” Lawrence admitted. “Woody Harrelson in a cropped top was my favorite. He got really hot and wanted to borrow a shirt of mine because he wore a thermal and the only thing he could fit in was a baggy crop top.” “And the best part is nobody mentioned it! The whole party, like nobody said anything. They’re just like, ‘Yeah, Woody’s in a crop top.’ That was great.” Can you say “favorite new mental image”?

Every country in the world has a fair portion of its history steeped in bloodshed, war & a blatant disregard for human life – none of us are truly guilt free. But it’s one thing to document the history and shortcomings of a country and quite another to peddle political propaganda designed to drive a wedge between nations and fear amongst the population. The more restrictive a government and the less information that flows, the less aware its people become. Once that starts occurring, it’s infinitely easier t0 set the agenda according to your own interests. That’s the sole aim with any form of propaganda, cherry pick information designed influence an audience in an emotional rather than rational manner. Currently few do that better than North Korea – a country equally as secretive as it is restrictive. They’re not huge fans of the United States but then, why would you be if you’d been bombard constantly with these grizzly and gruesome images?

I think most of us, anyway, are on the same page with regard to the final season of Dexter : It's been a less than good season of a show that's been limping for quite some time. Charlotte Rampling's Dr. Vogel is somewhat compelling, but most of us are just hanging in there because we want to know: "Will Dexter die?" It's certainly pointing that way, and Dexter's exchange with Dr. Vogel this week about demonstrating selfless love through sacrifice provides further evidence. But, man, what have they done to Debra Morgan? She's always had her neuroses, and for such a strong female character, she's always been TERRIBLE at choosing her boyfriends (and wanting to bone Dexter only makes matters worse), but this year, the downward spiral has taken a huge toll. She's not only a woman in love with her brother, she's now a murder, an alcoholic, a drug abuser, and a sex fiend. I miss the Debra of old. She's still got the occasional decent profanity-lace line, but it's not the same. So, in honor of the old Debra, let's take a moment to appreciate the gems she's given us over seven and a half seasons of Dexter.

If you asked me, I would’ve called it Swine Island or Swinesland for short. But no one asked me. And that, as you can probably imagine, makes me feel a little left out. What does a person have to do to be invited to these naming events, anyway? And don’t you dare say “be in a position of power” because, okay, that actually makes all the sense. Carry on!
