Olivia Wilde in black Tom Ford in Berlin: lovely, classy or totally boring?

wenn9497220

I’m quite content to blame Olivia Wilde for the respective box office failures/disappointments of The Change-Up and Cowboys & Aliens. Sure, there are lots of people you could blame, but what do those two movies have in common? Bangs-Trauma Cockburn. Still, Olivia continues to book movie after movie for whatever reason, so there’s going to be at least a three-year lag before her movie career goes belly-up when people realize that she’s like the Typhoid Mary of box office disappointments. She’s even rumored to be taking over the Linda Lovelace role in some version of Lovelace’s life story (no word on whether it’s the same project that Linnocent was involved with).

Anyway, these are new photos of Olivia at the Berlin premiere of Cowboys & Aliens. I guess Olivia, Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford are going to be doing a lot of press in Europe, and probably Asia too, just so this damn film breaks even. Instead of trying to sex it up and sell it that way, Olivia looks like the odd man out – even Daniel seems to be holding her at a distance, like he knows she’s bad news. Olivia’s dress is Tom Ford, and it’s… kind of boring.

Meanwhile, Daniel seems to be clutching Harrison Ford lovingly. And Harrison looks like he doesn’t give a good goddamn about any of this. What’s up with Harrison’s hair, by the way? It looks like a piece from some angles.

Rachel McAdams’ green smocked dress in Madrid: tacky, cheap or cute?

morning_glory_23_wenn3165060

Here are some fresh photos of Rachel McAdams and Harrison Ford at the Madrid photo call for Morning Glory. Rachel decided to wear this odd, smocked green summer dress for the occasion. Much like her “cocktail dress” at the London premiere a few days ago, I find this inappropriate for winter months, even if it is unseasonably warm in Madrid (is it?). Beyond the “you’re wearing a smocked cotton summer dress in January” issue, there is also an issue of… cheapness. This looks like it came from Target. The discount rack at Target. While there is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing something from Target, you know this dress probably costs hundreds of dollars. And that’s the problem. A $500 cotton, smocked, designer summer dress that looks like it came from a Target discount rack. Ugh. She really needs a new stylist.

Here’s Harrison Ford… I know some of you think he looks ancient, but I think he’s been looking really great on this press tour.

Rachel McAdams barely-there Suno dress in London: tacky or cute?

morning_glory_prem_3_wenn3162331

These are photos from the London premiere of Morning Glory. A few days ago we had photos from the Berlin premiere – Rachel McAdams went high-glamour in a bright red Michael Kors, accessorizing with funky hair. While I think Rachel’s overall look at this London premiere was a lot better, I can’t help thinking that this is all wrong for a January premiere in London. The dress is an adorable little Suno (a label I’ve never heard of), accessorized with simple makeup and easy-breezy hair – gorgeous for an LA premiere in May. Wrong for London in January. And that’s not my only quibble. Look how much skin she’s showing! Yes, she’s a petite little thing, so the daring neckline doesn’t look trashy or tacky, like it would on someone more voluptuous. But still – eh. She doesn’t need to walk that line. Is anyone else getting the feeling that Rachel needs a new stylist?

Other photos… Harrison Ford was there for the premiere too. He looked really handsome, I thought. I like the teal scarf. It looks nice on him.

morning_glory_04_wenn5592909

Does anyone like Patrick Wilson? I think he’s a good actor, but he just seems so… I don’t know. “Pillow weeper” comes to mind. He’s all of the equipment: handsome, talented, nice smile, nice body. And yet the entire package feels less than the sum of its parts.

Rachel McAdams in Michael Kors in Berlin: gorgeous, or the wrong color?

wenn9029929

These are photos of Rachel McAdams and Harrison Ford at the Berlin premiere of Morning Glory last night. Rachel is wearing this rather spectacular red and black Michael Kors. This is one of those times where I adore the dress, but I wish I could see it on someone else. Not that I don’t love Rachel – I do, and I think she’s gorgeous. However, she’s been doing this lighter hair for so long… and I really miss her having darker hair. With darker hair (and lighter lipstick, right?), I don’t think this Kors would have looked so harsh. That being said, it’s still a great dress, and I applaud Rachel for picking it out.

Regarding Morning Glory – that film sank without a trace, didn’t it? Lots of critics even liked it, and said it was one of the better romantic-comedy-dramas of recent memory. I haven’t seen it yet, but I’d like to.

Also: Rachel’s still-on boyfriend Michael Sheen was nowhere to be seen, but that’s not surprising. She probably doesn’t want to flaunt the relationship so soon.

Harrison Ford & Daniel Craig in ‘Cowboys & Aliens’: cheesefest or dongfest?

cowboys2

I just watched this new trailer for Cowboys & Aliens with my mouth hanging open. I mean… how did this film get greenlit? What was the pitch? “You know how people loved Independence Day? You know how people love Clint Eastwood cowboy movies? Why don’t we combine the two?!?” Yes, this film is about cowboys like Daniel Craig (the outlaw cowboy) and Harrison Ford (the federal marshal) battling aliens in the old west of something. I guess it’s supposed to be circa 19th century? All I know is that Daniel Craig’s accent work is horrendous, and the story looks like something two middle-aged Clint Eastwood fetishists came up with during an acid trip. Oh, and Olivia Wilde is in it. She plays an old-timey whore, I think. Even though they tried to ugly her up (I think), she just looks too modern for this.

So… is the story that Daniel Craig was an outlaw who got abducted by aliens and they gave him some magical bracelet that deflects the alien powers while also wiping his mind of everything, including whores? And then he goes right back into town and Harrison Ford is all “GIVE HIM TO ME!!!” and then the aliens are like “Wazzup?!?” and Daniel is all “Remember that bracelet you GAVE me? Eat it, bitches!!!”

Jesus. If this film is a success, I shall eat my hat.

Thanks to Gawker for the tip!

Rachel McAdams in Lanvin at the ‘Morning Glory’ premiere: cute or tragic?

wenn3086321

In addition to the European MTV Awards, last night was also the big premiere of Morning Glory, the film everybody’s mom wants to see. Personally, I’ve already had to promise my mom that I’d take her to see it, and I doubt I’m the only one. It’s going to be epic – Harrison Ford as a curmudgeon, Canada’s Sweetheart Rachel McAdams, and Diane Keaton doing her silly best. Now, while I think the trailer looks good, I don’t really get how this film is being promoted. If I was in charge (if, if, if), I would be putting the emphasis on Rachel as the Everywoman, the next Julia Roberts/Reese Witherspoon type who can carry a rom-com on her own. I’d also add a dash of Oscar nomination “rumors” for Harrison, because he looks really interesting in this. What I would not do is encourage my leading lady, Rachel, to dress up like some kind of twitchy blonde bombshell. This premiere dress (Lanvin) and styling reeks of “trying too hard” and it makes me not like her. Plus, I just don’t care for her as a blonde.

Harrison looked like hell too. I know he’s Old and everything, but the hair and the earring… God, Harrison. Just slick back your hair and be the elder statesman that you are.

Diane looked cute though:

Harrison Ford makes debut appearance at Comic-Con, nerds wet themselves

comic_con_cowboys_and_aliens_3_wenn2937607

Damn, Harrison Ford is looking good, isn’t he? Yes, his arms look a little strange, and he looks like he recently lost some weight, which makes me wonder if he’s sick, but all in all, Harrison is still a damn fine man. I love that at the age of 68 years old, he’s still capable of delivering that cute, naughty little Han Solo/Indiana Jones face. Sweet. Oh, and Harrison arrived on stage… in HANDCUFFS.

Sweet Jesus. Harrison had been persuaded to make his first-ever Comic-Con appearance by Jon Favreau, who directed Ford in Cowboys & Aliens. According to every media outlet who witnessed the event, Harrison got one of the biggest receptions in the history of Comic-Con. Basically, nerds were crying with joy. I would be crying too if I saw Harrison in handcuffs in front of me (Harrison’s entrance begins at 3:30-ish in the video):

Harrison Ford wore Wrangler jeans to his wedding to Calista Flockhart

wenn5361551

Last week, Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart got married in Santa Fe, New Mexico, at the governor’s mansion. In fact, the ceremony was presided over by New Mexico’s chief justice, and NM governor Bill Richardson hosted some kind of reception for them. All in all, it had the potential to be a very swanky affair. Not so much, as it turns out. People Magazine says that Harrison was wearing Wrangler jeans for the ceremony. Calista wore a sundress.

Who needs an Armani tux? When Harrison Ford married longtime girlfriend Calista Flockhart on June 15, the movie star opted to tie the knot in more offbeat designer duds: Wrangler jeans.

Completing the laid-back approach to their surprise Santa Fe, New Mexico, nuptials, Flockhart donned a casual white sundress for the outdoor ceremony on the grounds of Gov. Bill Richardson’s hilltop mansion.

Flockhart’s son, Liam, 9, served as ring bearer as the couple exchanged bands and simple vows. Looking on were Gov. Richardson, who performed the simple ceremony; his wife, Barbara; the governor’s official counsel; and New Mexico’s chief justice, Charles W. Daniels, who officially pronounced Ford, 67, and Flockhart, 45, husband and wife.

The intimate, no-frills wedding underscored what those close to them have long known: Ford and Flockhart are in it for the long haul.

“They’re both honest in their approach to life and to each other,” says Bernie Pollack, a Ford pal and his longtime go-to costume designer. “This [marriage] will only enhance what they already had.”

Ford, who is in New Mexico shooting the action-fantasy Cowboys & Aliens, had a day off from work for his wedding, but was back on-set a few days later.

[From People]

Personally, I think it’s tacky to wear jeans only because it was at the governor’s mansion. If they were getting married on some beach somewhere, sure, wear jeans or a sundress, that’s fine. But the location of the ceremony seemed to demand something a bit more formal. I would even have gone for khakis. Some stone-washed chinos perhaps. In any case, now that I know jeans are allowed, I plan to get married in sweatpants. What? They’re comfortable!

Harrison Ford & Calista Flockhart got married in New Mexico on Tuesday

After eight years of hard work, can we really call a woman a golddigger? I don’t think I can (exception: Kate Middleton?) Calista Flockhart put in 8 years with Harrison Ford, and just paid off big-time this week. TMZ was the first to report – with HuffPo confirming - that Harrison and Calista were married in New Mexico on Tuesday. The couple had been engaged since March of 2009. The ceremony was allegedly performed by New Mexico’s governor, Bill Richardson. TMZ thinks the event happened at the governor’s mansion! Fancy.

TMZ has learned Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart were married yesterday and Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico performed the ceremony.

We got the tip from Lisa Stanley at K-Earth 101 in L.A. and just confirmed it ourselves.

We’re told the couple was married in the Governor’s mansion in Santa Fe. Their marriage license was filed today in the County Clerk’s Office.

Harrison and Calista have been together for almost 8 years, and got engaged over Valentine’s weekend in 2009.

Harrison is filming “Cowboys and Aliens” in New Mexico right now.

[From TMZ]

Yes, Harrison has been raising Calista’s son Liam like his own, and there’s even been talk that Harrison would legally adopt him? And some sources claimed that Calista wanted to adopt again too. We’ll see. I was just looking them up to see the ages again – Calista turns 46 years old in November, and Harrison turns 68 years old next month. So… no comment. Look, if Harrison is still into it, God bless. Congratulations to the happy family.

Harrison Ford pulls a Jessica Biel, whines about the material he’s given

wenn2716858

When I first read the title of this article from Fox New Pop Tarts – “Harrison Ford Opens Up About the Decline of Good Hollywood Roles” – my immediate thought was “Harrison Ford pulls a Jessica Biel, whines about there being ‘no material’.” So imagine my surprise and delight when Pop Tarts even puts a f-cking Biel quote in the article! This seriously made my day. So, anyway, Harrison is bitching about what Hollywood was like back in the good ol’ days when “the studios spent a lot of money on the development of stories and ideas and bought books and they really developed the scripts. That doesn’t happen anymore.” While I will agree that overall, the story-telling aspect of Hollywood films has declined over the years, I do think there is a more particular reason in Harrison Ford’s case.

Veteran actor Harrison Ford has only made a handful of movies over the last few years, and it’s not because he no longer loves acting – it’s just that according to him – Hollywood isn’t producing any quality material.

“I grew up in a system where the studios spent a lot of money on the development of stories and ideas and bought books and they really developed the scripts. That doesn’t happen anymore,” Ford told Tarts. “Now, if you want good material you have to develop it for yourself or have a hand in the process. I have been determined to do that over the past few years.”

Ford took matters into his own hands by signing on as executive producer for the new fact-based drama “Extraordinary Measures,” where he plays an unconventional scientist that sets out to develop a cure for Pompe disease alongside John and Aileen Crowley (Brendan Fraser and Keri Russell), whose young children are inflicted with the rare degenerative disorder.

“I was looking to develop material for myself,” Ford added. “I saw an opportunity to tell a very positive human story and the opportunity to craft for myself a part different to what I’ve normally done and a different genre.”

However the 67-year-old “Indiana Jones” star certainly isn’t the first to be dismayed by the caliber of Hollywood roles these days. In fact, it seems to be quite a hot topic, among both male and female actors.

“Where are the roles for the female experience from that (strong, admirable) point of view for the young college girls, mothers and grandmothers? A lot of actresses I speak to find the same thing,” actress Jessica Biel recently told us. “We’re all scrambling for it when something good comes out that actually has a good female character.”

[From Fox News Pop Tarts]

Now, I love Harrison. He’s made so many good movies, he’s a friggin’ icon, I still have sexual fantasies about his character Jack in Working Girl, and, you know, bless his heart. But he’s old. And I’m not saying old people can’t make movies or that old people can’t make good movies (I’m seriously not saying that), but that Harrison seems to think he should still be making the same kind of films he was making 25 years ago, and no one wants to see him in those roles anymore. Could it be, much like in Biel’s case, Harrison simply isn’t getting the great scripts because those films are going to other (better/younger) actors? With Biel, she lusts after the parts going to Natalie Portman or Anne Hathaway or Scarlett Johansson. With Harrison, I get the feeling he’s lusting after parts going to people like George Clooney or Matt Damon. Why couldn’t Harrison reinvent himself into some Tom Wilkinson-type actor? You know, a stellar character actor and sometime leading man. Because I do miss seeing Harrison. I especially miss him acting in good movies that I want to see.

Oh, and take out the earring. I know he’s had it for a decade or whatever and I should be over it, but the thing still makes me chuckle sadly.
