Movie Review - Gnomeo & Juliet (***)

Gnomeo_and_Juliet_12896245858862.jpg
GNOMEO & JULIET
.  84 mins.  G.  Directed by Kelly Asbury.

We've gone a whole six weeks or so without a new movie for kids in theaters, so the timing on Gnomeo & Juliet couldn't be better.  This Disney/Touchstone production - originally set up at Miramax - borrows elements from Toy Story while taking a page (or two) directly out of Shakespeare's classic tale of doomed lovers.  Parents - fret not though.  The ending of Gnomeo is a lot happier than what Shakespeare intended.  The movie itself is mostly enjoyable, inoffensive fluff that will keep the kids happy and parents mildly amused.

Set in the backyard of two warring houses, Gnomeo & Juliet tells the story of two garden gnomes who fall in love despite their family's wishes.  The basic plot structure is recycled Shakespeare, though for huge stretches of the movie it hardly bears a resemblance.  These garden gnomes come to life while humans are away, and enjoy drag racing on lawnmowers.   The whole movie is set to Elton John songs - some new, most classics.  It's a peculiar choice (I'm not sure what connects Elton John to lawn ornaments), but certainly a welcome one.  Stylistic choices - be they right or wrong - are always better than no choices at all.

Gnomeo is directed by Kelly Asbury, a co-director on the far-superior Shrek 2.  The script is by a committee of about 20 different people.  Okay, maybe not that many, but the end credit for screenplay took up the entire screen so let that tell you something.  If the story seems a bit incoherent at first, don't worry - the movie finds its footing as it progresses.  You may even find yourself touched by the story of a lonely, plastic pink flamingo - I was.  In any event, viewers can always marvel at the detailed textures on the gnomes (seriously, how long did it take to animate every ceramic crater or piece of chipped paint?!) and wondering which famous British actor is voicing which character.  For the record, the voice cast includes James McAvoy, Emily Blunt, Michael Caine, Jason Statham, and PatrickStewart, among others - an impressive lot, to be sure.  Lame puns aside, this one's alright.

Juvenile Arrested for Marijuana Possession

Filed under: ,


Juvenile ArrestedGetty Images

No stranger to run-ins with the law, rapper Juvenile was arrested Saturday (Feb. 26) in Louisiana for marijuana possession as well as driving with a suspended license.

The 'Beast Mode' creator, born Terius Gray, was pulled over at about 10:55PM late Saturday after Sterlington Police Sgt. Jacob Greer clocked him driving 75 mph in a 65 mph zone. According to Sgt. Greer, Juvenile passed in the right lane as well, which is illegal in the state of Louisiana.

The officer went on to explain that when he approached the rapper's vehicle, he smelled the distinct odor of marijuana. When asked if Juvenile had the substance in his possession, Sgt. Greer said he handed over a small bag of the drug.

"He was very courteous and respectful as he could be. He asked me if I recognized him, and I said 'No. Now if you were George Strait I'll probably have recognized you,'" Greer said.

Barack Obama Sends Support To Earthquake Victims In New Zealand

Written by Tim Saunders

As the death toll rises to 75, US President Barack Obama has sent his support to the people of Christchurch, New Zealand, following yesterday’s devastating earthquake.

Obama has offered “our deepest condolences” to the people of New Zealand and the families and friends of earthquake victims.

“To assist in the rescue and recovery efforts, we have agreed to deploy a U.S. Agency for International Development Disaster Assistance Response Team, including an Urban Search and Rescue Team, and we stand ready to provide more assistance as needed,” he said. “As our New Zealand friends move forward, may they find some comfort and strength in knowing that they will have the enduring friendship and support of many partners around the world, including the United States.”

British Prime Minister David Cameron has also reached out to victims of the 6.3 quake, which has seen thousands made homeless, while hundreds remain missing.

“There are many people in Britain with ties of friendship or family to New Zealand,” he said. “They will be following events particularly closely and with understandable anxiety. I believe I speak on behalf of everyone in our country when I say that we all stand with New Zealand at this moment, at this dark and difficult time.”

New Zealand Prime Minister, John Key, has declared a national state of emergency – the first time this has happened in the country’s history.

To help victims of the earthquake via the Red Cross, please visit the New Zealand Red Cross.

Vintage 365: Joyful Valentine?s Day wishes!

? Day 45 of Vintage 365 ?



 

February 14th means a great many different things to each of us. Some people (*shots hand up in air*) revel in a merry celebration of love, whereas would prefer it if the calendar went from the 13th and 15th, leaving out today all together.

Whether you're head-over-heels for hearts or prefer to eschew the sugary-sweet side of this festive day, I hope dearly that today fills you with positive thoughts about all kinds of love. From romantic passion to the wonderful kinship between you and your bff, love is never trivial; it's a highly important component to life and one that, I firmly believe, deserves to be acknowledged and cheered - both today and always.

One thing I think we can all agree that we adore is the wonderful world of vintage images, such as this positively delightful Motorola ad from 1950, which features a love-struck couple who are clearly crazy for one another. I hope that it?s beautiful art and chipper hues bring a smile your way and helps make your morning extra bright.

Please know, dear friends, that I'm thinking of you today and sending out my deepest heartfelt wishes for a Valentine's Day that radiates with joy in whatever capacity you most desire.

Happiest Valentine's Day (with love and best wishes), everyone!

Travis Barker is denying reports that he's dating Rihanna. The drummer, who is prepping the release of his solo album 'Give the Drummer Some,' laughed off the rumor that there is anything going on with the Bajan beauty besides a platonic friendship.

"I don't know where the rumors came from. Not dating Rihanna," he told The BoomBox, during a private listening session of his album Thursday (Feb. 24). "We've just been friends for probably a year-and-a-half, ever since I taught her how to play the drums, but never romantically. I would definitely play on an album [with her] or something like that."

Doing the iPod Shuffle - What Are You Listening To Now?

wikipedia-on-ipod.jpg

My husband called me a "relic" the other day, which, as a classicist, I took as a compliment.  

He was referring to the music on my iPod, which currently features a playlist that runs the gamut from Ani DiFranco to more Ani DiFranco to the Indigo Girls.  I, no joke, have not updated my iPod since somewhere around 2007.  

John tried to tell me that if I look for it, I might actually find some new music that I like just as much as my old standbys.  I told him that I am striving to be my dad, listening to the Talking Heads and Cat Stevens and owning just one Daughtry CD to prove that I have in fact been alive since 1985.  

But I am willing to grow and expand my musical repertoire.  So, tell me.  What are you currently listening to?  Which artists do I absolutely have to add to my collection of Aimee Mann and Tori Amos albums?

First Look: Kelly Osbourne As Material Girl

Blog photo

New fashion darling Kelly Osbourne has taken over from rebellious Gossip Girl cast member Taylor Momsen as the face of Material Girl, the fashion line by Madonna and her daughter Lourdes.

Blog photo

Kelly has gone through a considerable transformation, both physically and stylistically, following her appearance on US TV show Dancing With The Stars, turning her into a front row fixture during fashion weeks. Meanwhile, Taylor's popularity shrank due to her alleged rebellious attitude and unpredictability, causing Lourdes to blog that she and her mother were "desperately seeking" a new face for their common fashion line.

Blog photo

Kelly Osbourne, daughter of rocker Ozzy and star of his family's reality TV show The Osbournes, made her chart debut thanks to a cover of Madonna's Papa Don't Preach, maybe fetching her the singer's sympathy.

Etta James Must Have Independent Medical Exam

Filed under: ,


Etta JamesFrederick M. Brown, Getty Images

In a move that seems mindful of the current accusations against Dr. Conrad Murray -- Michael Jackson's home doctor at the time of his death -- a judge in California ordered an independent medical evaluation of R&B icon Etta James this week. The action was prompted when James' son's attorney raised concerns about the singer's safety in the hands of her home doctor.

James' health has been in steady decline recently and the 72-year-old suffers from dementia, leukemia and kidney problems. According to reports, James' home doctor inserted feeding tubes into her stomach without first transporting her to a hospital, which is what the procedure usually calls for, in the interest of safety.
