'Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes' Los Angeles Premiere {Photos}

Rise of the Planet of the Apes made it's Hollywood premiere on July 28 in Los Angeles and many of movie's stars showed up to walk the red carpet.

James Franco showed up in a very nice suit and very unflattering hair and mustache. That dude is seriously fighting whatever hotness he's got left.

Freida Pinto looked gorgeous in her green fitted dress. The jewelry she wore really made it fun & summery.

I'm not going to really go into much detail about what I really think of this movie but let's just say I think it's complete shit. That is all.

Michelle Williams Is Set To Play Glinda In New 'Oz' Movie!

The picky looking actress has been picked to star as Glinda the Good Witch in Disney's 'Oz: The Great and Powerful'.

Michelle Williams will join a fabulous cast in Disney's prequel to the classic 1939 'Wizard of Oz'. It's rumored that director Sam Raimi was fighting for actress Hilary Swank to get the part but Disney wanted Williams.

I think Michelle was definitely the best choice of the two as she sort of has that innocent look to her. She'll be joining James Franco (as the salesman/Wizard), Mila Kunis (Theodora/pre-wicked Witch of the West) and Rachel Weisz (Evanora/already the wicked Witch).

Sounds like a great cast and I can't wait to see the movie!

The Many Styles Of 2011 Oscar Host Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway had many wardrobe changes throughout the evening of co-hosting the 83rd Academy Awards with fellow actor James Fraco. She was first spotted on the red carpet before showtime in a red Valentino couture gown.

Once the show began she had 7 wardrobe changes and I have to say not all of them were pretty (much like the show). Take a look for yourself...

Did you have a favorite or least favorite?

James Franco Doesn't Care For Ricky Gervais' Oscar Help

E-Online did the favor of showing James Franco and Anne Hathaway the script that British comedian Ricky Gervais wrote for them for Oscar night. How did they react?

Well Anne Hathaway played it cool but James Franco had more childish reaction to it. The '27 Hours' actor states “He did his award show and he bombed, why is he trying to get in on ours?" while reading Ricky's script. James then added "Horrible, his lines weren’t good on the Golden Globes."

I think that was a low blow on James' part, although I may be picking sides because I have a soft spot for funnyman Ricky Gervais. In my opinion James Franco comes off as childish when he begins to make comments about how bad Ricky was at the Golden Globes.

Anne kids that all of the funny lines were written for James at one point, which I think she does to sort of loosen up the conversation. I'm still really excited to watch them both host the Oscars on Sunday but seeing James Franco in this light was pretty off putting.



Do you think James Franco over reacted to Ricky's joke of a script?

Ricky Gervais Offers James Franco & Anne Hathaway Some Help

British comedian Ricky Gervais sure is a nice guys...he's offered to help out the two Oscar hosts, James Franco and Anne Hathaway, with some openers in case they run out of stuff to talk about while up on stage.

He's such a nice guy isn't he? Well if you tuned into him hosting the Golden Globes a few months ago then you'd know that his openers are not all that 'nice' but it sure is funny!

The now slimmed down comedian wrote the following on his blog:

“Good luck to James Franco and Anne Hathaway at The Oscars on Sunday, I know how nervous they must be right now….They will do an absolutely fantastic job and don’t need my help, but I’ve written a little opening in case they have a few minutes to fill.”

Ricky then followed up his good wishes with the following:

James FrancoYou probably know me from 127 Hours where I play a man trapped in an enclosed space who decides he would rather cut his own arm off than stay where he was. Now that sounds "way out" but wait till half way through this fucking ceremony and you'll start to identify with him.

Anne Hathaway
And I'm the new Catwoman. The first white woman to play that role since Michelle Pfeiffer. I want it to be an inspiration to all white people everywhere. Your dreams can come true in Hollywood too.

JF
It's a daunting task hosting The Oscars but we're not alone. Presenting awards tonight will be a string of Hollywood legends and some other actors who have a film out in March or April.

JF
Usually they hire comedians to host The Oscars, but tonight, instead, you get us!

AH
No comedians tonight. And do you know why? Because comics are ugly.

JF
Especially that rude obnoxious one who played the Steve Carell part in the English remake of The Office.

AH
But you can all relax because Ricky Gervais is in London...

(Nervous laughter)

He's doing some charity work.
Yeah, he's visiting orphans with cancer.
He's telling them what bald little losers they are...

There's a lot more of that and if you're interested in reading it click here. I personally think he's funny and I hope Hollywood rethinks banning him from hosting the Golden Globes again...oh wait, they already did.

James Franco & Anne Hathaway Re-Do Grease Scene

 

James Franco, who recently joined the Twitter-verse tweeted a link to a YouTube video. In this particular video we see James Franco with his hair greased back and dressed like Danny Zuko. We also see Anne Hathaway in tight clothing with her hair teased up like Sandy's. 

There isn't any singing or much dancing in the video, it's just a small clip but maybe it's a taste of what we'll see in during this years Oscars Awards...at least I hope it is. I'm really excited that they're hosting this year! I've loved and laughed at everyone of their commercials and I can't wait to see what stars are wearing what.

Will you be tuning into the Oscars this year?
