Lucy Pinder & Her 32-E’s Responsible for Widespread Offense in the U.K.!

Lucy-Pinder-Banned-Butt-Ad

Print and TV adverts (see above & below) for Lynx deodorant featuring busty glamour model and Strippers vs. Werewolves star Lucy Pinder have been banned in the U.K. for making ugly women feel bad. According to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), a rancid smelling countryman is far more tolerable than a bitter wife or girlfriend.

Peep it:

Says the ASA:

We considered that the various activities that Ms Pinder carried out were presented in a sexually provocative way, and that alongside the focus on Ms Pinder’s cleavage … were likely to be seen as gratuitous and to objectify women.

We therefore concluded that the ads were likely to cause serious and widespread offence.

Pinder’s God-given gifts of T&A have made her a sensation in the UK where she often graces the pages of popular mens magazines. The 27-year-old stunner recently made her acting debut as a vampire bride in director Jonathan Glendening’s (13 HRS) outrageous new thriller Strippers vs. Werewolves.

Andrea-Duro-Semi-Desnuda

Andrea Duró is starring in Spanish Movie director Javier Ruiz Caldera’s new horror-comedy Promocion Fantasma (gringo translation: Ghost Graduation). The 20-year-old española plays Marivi, one of five restless spirits looking to graduate from high school with the help of a paranormal-friendly professor named Modesto (Raúl Arévalo).

Peep it:

Promocion Fantasma is produced by the folks behind Alejandro Amenabar’s Agora and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s Biutiful and is Caldera’s followup to his 2009 sleeper hit Spanish Movie, a spoof on Spanish horror films that starred the late and great Leslie Nielsen.

Duró, who also stars in Cuban filmmaker Alejandro Brugués’ satirical zombie frightener Juan de los Muertos, is joined here by Jaime Olías, Alex Maruny, Javier Bódalo, Joaquín Reyes, Carlos Areces, and Spanish babes Alexandra Jiménez, Anna Castillo, and Aura Garrido.

Selina-Lo-Sexy-Scorpion-King-3

Universal Pictures has released a trailer for the third installment in its Scorpion King franchise. Entitled Scorpion King: The Battle for Redemption, the film is produced by the folks behind The Mummy and stars genre-fav Billy Zane and Ron Pearlman of Hellboy and “Sons of Anarchy” fame.

But, the real draw here—as with any low-budget home-video release—is the exposure to up-and-coming talent it gives movie fans … and by up-and-coming talent I mean hot half-naked chicks (sorry, Victor Webster, whoever you are).

Peep the gorgeous Selina Lo (pictured above) and Krystal Vee:

Wow, even the trailer doesn’t credit Webster … and he’s the fucking Scorpion King.

Lo is a British-born Asian martial artist-turned-actress who made her feature film debut as one of the infected in the Juan Carlos Fresnadillo-directed sequel 28 Weeks Later. To learn more about Lo and stroke to see photos, visit her website.

Krystal Vee

Krystal Vee

Vee is a Bangkok-born model-turned-actress who made her American debut in the 2009 video game adaptation Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. She can also be seen in the Danny Trejo-led sci-fi actioner The Lazurus Papers.

The Scorpion King: The Battle for Redemption is directed by Roel Reine (Death Race 2: Frankenstein Lives) and costars Boston Christopher (Otis), UFC fighter Kimbo Slice, wrestler Dave Bautista and the guy who played Bobba Fett’s father in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones.

Look for it on Blu-ray and DVD in January.

Gemma-Arterton-Jeremy-Renner-Hansel-Gretel

Posted above is the first image from Dead Snow director Tommy Wirkola’s Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, a flash forward of the classic fairy tale that finds the siblings hunting down supernatural forces for profit. EW scored the pic and an interview with star Gemma Arterton.

She says:

They resonate with your fears, that’s how these fairy tales worked. They scared you into behaving. This one in particular is about abandonment and being lost and parents leaving you. The heart of it is that these kids grow up to be bloodthirsty witch hunters. It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek, really. What would Hansel and Gretel be in 15 years time?

We spent a lot of time thinking about that and behaving like brother and sister, making it detailed so it wasn’t just two actors kicking butt, really. That would get boring. In our minds, these are two people who grew up with no parents and they only have each other and the bond they have, and with the complexities of that, some resentment.

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters costars Jeremy Renner as Hansel (pictured above) and Famke Janssen (X-Men), Zoe Bell (Death Proof) and Norwegian actress Ingrid Bolsø Berdal (Cold Prey) as evil witches.

The film finds its way into theaters on March 2, 2012.

Camp-Hell-Poster

Oscar nominated actor Jesse Eisenberg is suing Lionsgate Entertainment and Grindstone Entertainment for $3 million in damages suffered for “alleged misappropriation of right of publicity and unfair business practices” in the marketing of the horror film Camp Hell.

Eisenberg, who was paid $3,000 for what is essentially a cameo, is upset that the studios are pushing the bible-camp set thriller as an Eisenberg vehicle, posting his geeky mug predominantly on the movie’s sleeve and marketing materials.

Lawyers for the Rio and Social Network star filed the lawsuit on Nov. 23 in Los Angeles Superior Court (you can chew on the legalese here), explaining the action as way to keep the actor’s fans from being bamboozled.

While the majority of the public will debate whether Eisenberg is a douche-bag for suing or is truly being taken advantage of by the studios, I just feel bad for Camp Hell leads Andrew McCarthy and Dana Delany. This can’t be good for their egos.

weekend-at-bernies

McCarthy starred in such ’80s hits as Heaven Help Us, St. Elmo’s Fire, Pretty in Pink, Mannequin, and Weekend at Bernie’s (pictured above). Unfortunately, his deal with the devil must have dissolved after Bernie’s 2 and, well, here he is.

Delany, who rose to fame on ’80s drama “China Beach,” is experiencing a resurgence in her career, having starred for three seasons on ABC’s “Desperate Housewives” and currently toplining the studio’s new medical dramedy “Body of Proof.” Still, she apparently knows better than to say no to a rent-check.

Eisenberg may be hot today, but there may come a time when his magical Jew-fro will fail to draw audiences and he’ll consider himself fortunate to star as the janitor with a mysterious past in a home video original. Hopefully, no one will make him feel like a loser for doing so.

I guess what I’m saying is that I really like Michael Cera.

Prepare Your Vulcan Grip: Alice Eve Cast in ‘Star Trek 2’

alice_eve_sexy-star-trek

British actress Alice Eve is the first new actor to board J.J. Abrams‘ soon-to-start shooting Star Trek sequel. The 29-year-old stunner reportedly beat out Teresa Palmer (I Am Number 4) and Hayley Atwell (Captain America) for the part, which is not based on an existing Star Trek character.

As with the original 2008 reboot, Abrams will direct from a script by Damon Lindelof (“LOST”), Alex Kurtzman (“Alias”), Roberto Orci (“Fringe”). Paramount has set a May 13, 2013 release date for the picture, which goes into production early next year.

Eve joins a cast that includes OG players Chris Pine (Captain James T. Kirk), Zachary Quinto (Spock), Anton Yelchin (Pavel Chekov), Simon Pegg (Scotty) and Zoe Saldana (Nyota Uhura). Benicio del Toro is currently in negotiations to play a known Star Trek villain.

Alice-Eve--See-Thru-Breasts

Eve’s career has certainly lived long and prospered since losing out on the role of Emma Frost to January Jones in Mathew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class and starring in the 2010 comedy-turd She’s Out of My League.

In addition to Star Trek 2, Eve will soon be seen in Relativity Media’s Edgar Allan Poe-inspired thriller The Raven, Barry Sonnenfeld’s long-delayed sequel Men in Black III, and the Chris Sparling (Buried) penned frightener ATM.

They May Take ‘John Carter’ to Mars, But They’ll Never Take His Freeeeeedom!

Lynn-Collins-Taylor-Kitsch-John-Carter

Disney has released the first full-length trailer for their big screen adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ “John Carter from Mars,” starring Lynn Collins as Princess Dejah Thoris, Willem Dafoe as Tars Tarkas, Bryan Cranston as Civil War Colonel Powell and Taylor Kitsch as John Carter.

Peep it:

The official synopsis reads:

[John Carter] tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet.

In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.

Jaime-Ray-Newman-Leggy

“Eureka” starlet Jaime Ray Newman is set to star in Red Robin, a Michael Z. Wechsler-directed mind-control thriller about a man who manipulates people into accepting a delicious gourmet burger on their birthday.

Oh, wait. Here’s an accurate plot crunch courtesy of Variety:

A family reunion on a famed psychiatrist’s (Judd Hirsch) death bed spirals into chaos when he’s accused of using his many adopted children for the purposes of dark experiments in mind control.

Judd Hirsch? They should just call this Red Box.

Well, at least fans of the Syfy series “Eureka” will get a chance to peep Jaime Ray Newman in a new genre. The alluring 33-year-old redhead plays unconventional astrophysicist Tess Fontana on the show.

Newman also starred opposite Rebecca Romijn and Lindsay Price as an element-controlling witch with healing powers on ABC’s short-lived TV series Eastwick, an adaptation of author John Updike’s novel “The Witches of Eastwick.”
