G.I. Joe: The Rise of Crappy Taglines

Liam — Wed, 27 May 2009 16:26:57 +0000

Empire got themsevles an international poster for G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, which looks rather cool. Nice contract between the blue and orange. Nice photoshopped ass on Sienna Miller. However, due to my ability to read I can’t help but wonder who actually gets paid to write these taglines. They are rubbish. Observe:

We still have another 3 months before G.I. Joe is released. Hopefully they can hire a better tagline writer between then and now.

Sienna Miller talks Robin Hood. Says she was too young

Liam — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 15:12:09 +0000

Once upon a time Sienna Miller was cast as Maid Marian in Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood (then called Nottingham). We then got news that she was no longer playing the role, and the media and gossip people reported that she was fired because she was ’so young and gorgeous’ where as Russell Crowe was ’so old and fat’. That wasn’t exactly true (as expected) but according to Miller, age was a factor in her not appearing in the movie.

From Contact Music:

“The script has been evolving and changing and it often happens in films. They’ve been trying to make this for a couple of years and they rewrote the script and they needed someone who was older.”
“There’s a husband who has been away at war for 10 years and he comes back, so it’s just not feasible for me to play her. Cate Blanchett is doing it.” Miller insists there have been many other cast changes – but the media refuses to focus on them.
She adds, “The media doesn’t have to make quite as much a meal of it as they do when it happens to me. I’m sure it will be a wonderful project but this is not an absolutely shocking thing to happen in the movie industry when scripts evolve and casts change.
“Other people have changed in that cast, but the media just won’t document it. I would obviously love to work with Ridley and still I hope to in the future.”

Putting age aside, Cate Blanchett is a better actress and is better suited for the role. However, I am still a fan of Sienna. The gossips and tabloids have presented an image of her over the years and it overshadows her work, which is sometimes quite good.

Sienna Miller says we’ll be getting a “violent girl-fight” in G.I Joe

Liam — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 02:13:40 +0000

It is inevitable in movies that if you have two good looking females on opposing sides, they have to have a good old cat fight at some point. G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra is keeping with tradition and we will be getting a Sienna Miller vs. Rachel Nichols “violent girl-fight”. Oh, and they’ll be wearing them leather suit while going at it.

From MTV:

Sienna said her favorite scene, however, was decidedly low-tech, depicting her evil Cobra assassin pulling hair with Joe agent “Scarlett” O’Hara. “There’s a really, really good girl fight between Rachel Nichols and myself,” she explained. “It’s like a proper, violent girl-fight scene. And we both worked so hard for the choreography and the training of it. … We both got hurt. I’m clumsy, so I slipped on a rubber bullet at one point and sprained my wrist quite badly. She ran into a flame and got burned.”

I hope we get a glimpse of this in the next trailer, whenever that will be.

5 new G.I Joe posters

Liam — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 12:11:41 +0000

AICN were given 5 new posters for G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra, featuring Sienna Miller as The Baroness, Channing Tatum as Duke, Marlon Wayans as Ripcord, Ray Park as Snake Eyes and Rachel Nichols as Scarlett.

Click to enlarge!

All these posters do is prove that another possible franchise can also have their characters in leather suits, not just The Matrix or X-Men. We haven’t really seen anything from this movie yet, however we should be getting a TV spot during the Super Bowl, and then hopefully a full trailer after that.

Gossips and liars give us Nottingham update

Liam — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 00:31:09 +0000

The last time my bulls*hit alarm rang was when Eddie Murphy had apparently landed a role in the next Batman film, and now it has just rung again. According to the New York Post:

Russell Crowe is ‘telling producers to get a new director, demanding script rewrites and, now, forcing Sienna Miller out of the flick’.

According to these ‘journalists’ Russell Crowe is trying to get Ridley Scott fired from his own film. They also say that because Crowe has put on a bit of weight lately he had Sienna Miller fired because she is ’so young and gorgeous’ where as he is ’so old and fat’.

1) Russell Crowe is not trying to get Ridley Scott replaced. They have worked on four movies together and will have no doubt struck up a loving bond.

2) Sienna Miller will not appear in the film because filming got pushed back to March this year, and the schedules didn’t work out. It is not because Russell is having self-esteem issues.

3) I’m not linking to these liars because they only make this crap up to get hits.

Sienna Miller is a mental patient

Liam — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 00:32:10 +0000

When I read the words ‘Hollywood actors in music videos’ the first thing that comes to mind is Christopher Walken in Fatboy Slim’s ‘Weapon of Choice’ music video. Then I remember Robert Downey Jr. appeared in an Elton John video a few years back. The third one that will now pop into my head will be Sienna Miller in this ”See The Light” music video from UK indie rock band The Hours. Sienna Miller plays a mental patient, running around in a hospital gown, throwing around designer shoes and smearing cow’s blood across a wall. I guess she has to find something to do while she waits for Nottingham to get started.

The video is directed by Tony Kaye (American History X) and has a deeper message of Miller being imprisoned by her fame…or some bullshit.

Nottingham Delayed

Liam — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 00:55:45 +0000

It appears Robin Hood and his merry men have galloped face first into the tree of delay. The Hollywood Reporter say that the Ridley Scott film staring Russell Crowe as the Sheriff of Nottingham has been put on hold. It was supposed to start filming mid-August in London and it is not certain whether the delay is temporary or permanent. Universal have been wary of the SAG negotiations although it is not known what has caused Universal to apply the brakes now.

Sienna Miller was recently cast as Maid Marion and the film was going to take a different approach on the well known story. Instead of having Robin Hood as the heroic vigilante who steals from the rich and gives to the poor, the film would focus on what a thieving bastard he was and put the audience on he Sheriff’s side for once.

I was looking forward to this so I hope everything gets worked out and they start at some point this year. We need to see Russell Crowe get all ‘Maximus Decimus Meridius’ on us again.

Quote Of The Day: Sienna Miller Burnt Her Breasts

“I got burnt boobs, I ran the wrong way under an explosion. It was my own fault, I’m clumsy, there’s a little scar.”

Sienna Miller To Play Maid Marian In Nottingham

Liam — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 11:39:55 +0000

The BBC recently spoke with Sienna Miller who revealed that she will be playing the role of Maid Marian in the Ridley Scott movie Nottingham. Miller will star alongside Russell Crowe, who is expected to play the Sheriff of Nottingham.

“It’s happening. I just found out. It’s the most exciting news in the world.”
She added: “It’s ridiculous. But there’s this looming actor’s strike, so it’s not 100% sure that it’s going to be made, but it’s looking pretty certain.”
Miller, who is currently promoting her new film The Edge of Love, said she “could not have a better part” and working with Crowe and Ridley was “as good as it gets”.

To say she only became famous because Jude Law cheated on her with a nanny is quite good. She’s got some decent roles out of it, including G.I Joe where she gets to wear leather and look good all day. Maybe her role as Maid Marian is a way of her saying ‘Yes, I am sexy as hell and allowed someone famous to penertate me but that doesn’t mean I cant pretend to be someone else. By that I mean act’.

I suppose we’ll have to wait to see what the situation with the actors strike is before we hear anything concrete on Nottingham. I wonder who will end up playing Robin Hood? Jude Law?

The Edge of Love Trailer

Liam — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:08:03 +0000

We just saw a clip of Keira singing from the film so I might as well post the trailer! The film stars Elizabeth Swan herself, Sienna Miller, Cillian Murphy and Matthew Rhys.

I think it must be compulsory for Keira to say ‘Come back to me’ in trailers. She said it in Atonement as James McAvoy went to war, and now she’s saying it to Cillian Murphy as he goes off to war. I think she should stop saying it! And most importantly she should stop doing movies involving wars! I know she wanted to do some serious movies after the Pirates trilogy but that doesn’t she had to do four historical dramas back-to-back!

However, The Edge of Love does look quite good.
