HEIST by RYAN SEACREST & JULIANNE HOUGH FOR BEVERLY HILLS PARTIES

Show biz duo, Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough ‘s statement at a Beverly Hills party was “heist.” It’s a sentiment that Leonardo DiCaprio also brought to the screen in The Great Gatsby remake seen on screens worldwide this year.

What does the statement the duo are saying of Americans and the world? It’s very The Untouchables meets Beyonce songwriting lyrics too. “This is a stick up, ya’ll.” Corporate gangsta monopoly rolls – culture statements. Kinda dark.

So nice of Ryan to tottle down from The Hills parties set, to the flats of BH for this photo snap. Julianne too.

THE LIGHT IN OUR WINDOW

Where Peace starts, 
let us always meet each other with smile, 
for the smile is the beginning of love.

A warm smile is the universal welcome, 
in the language of humane kindness.

I love those who can smile in trouble, 
who can gather strength from distress.

May a smile always be the light in our window, 
where we grow brave by reflection.

CASTING SCREENWRITERS: TOBEY MAGUIRE, LEONARDO DICAPRIO & TOM HARDY’S MOVIE SCRIPT IDEA – AUGUST 2013

Gotta say it: It’s good to see Tobey Maquire and Tom Hardy are graduating in actors school to start producing their own movies. (Leo, well – he’s a walking production and always has been). Unless a new generation rise up and produce stories that they see relevant to their generation, then they run the risk of having their faces and names used in other peoples ideas of a story, while their own voices go unheard.

With that thought in mind of young people creating more, in order to grow their own economy with creative imagination and teamwork, more in line with what they personally believe, here’s a story:

Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Tom Hardy are teaming up to produce an untitled animal-trafficking drama set up at Warner Bros., sources tell The Hollywood Reporter.

Hardy came up with the idea, inspired by friends who are former Special Forces operatives and went on to become anti-poaching fighters in South Africa and other nations.

The idea for the movie is in the conceptual stage. The movie script concept will focus on a ground war on poachers in the African savanna traversing the theme of how animal material ends up in the fashion houses of Paris.

It’s unclear whether DiCaprio, Maguire or Hardy would act in the movie. The trio of producers are now looking for a suitable screenwriter to create the bones of the script. Winning.–More@TheHollywoodCastingCall.

MOVIE TRAILER: THE GREAT GATSBY’S SWAGGER

Australian director Baz Luhrmann‘s movie trailer for The Great Gatsby has dropped with plenty of cinematic swagger. IMDB paints the artistic film’s premise: ”Nick Carraway, a Midwesterner now living on Long Island, finds himself fascinated by the mysterious past and lavish lifestyle of his neighbor, Jay Gatsby. He is drawn into Gatsby’s circle, becoming a witness to obsession and tragedy.”

Look out for Bollywood glamour family’s Amitabh Bachchan in this Hollywood film. Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and Joel Edgerton rock the serious glam in 3D with Isla Fisher.

INDUSTRY TOWN NEWS – TV PILOT SEASON SUCCESSES AND THE GREAT GATSBY STARRING LEONARDO DICAPRIO IS LIKELY TO GO TO WARNER BROS

[Leonardo DiCaprio is pictured on set, starring in Clint Eastwood's J. Edgar click. Photo via MTV movies blog]

Pilot Season Casting News- Henry Ian Cusick lands a role on Shonda Rhimes (as yet unnamed) TV pilot who will appear as Olivia Price‘s (the central character played by Kerry Washington) litigating lawyer to Olivia’s PR fix it pro. Already I’m sold on this show.

A C.I.A agent presumed dead is recruited by a reclusive billionaire to wage war on New York criminals – would you watch this show dubbed Person of Interest! Yes! Jonathan Nolan‘s TV show premise, with JJ Abrams and Bad Robot productions producing for Warner TV – has been scooped up by CBS, for high action drama commissioning. As talent often runs in families, Jonathan Nolan is Hollywood director/writer Christopher Nolan‘s brother. The two bros shared an Oscar nomination for Momento one year back. Exciting TV! News source – InsideTV.EW.

Lisa Zwerling‘s tv pilot Weekends at Bellevue was rejected by NBC & UMS. However Fox has picked up the series, where ”a psychiatrist in charge of the weekend shift of Bellevue Hospital psychiatric unit.” Weekend at Bellevue is based on Dr. Julie Holland‘s memoir as the weekend physician in charge of the psychiatric emergency room at the oldest public hospital in the United States whose name has become synonymous with insanity. Zwerling, Gail Berman, Lloyd Braun and Gene Stein are executive producing.

Cinema Blend reports that Warner Bros is the likely contender to front finance/ secure distribution territory right for The Great Gatsby, the Baz Luhrmann-directed film that is an adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald‘s literary classic. A no.1 box office smash already for Warners by the sounds of it. Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan have been signed to star in the classic story.

Nikki Finke reports that Jeffrey Reiner is in the final negotiating stages to direct the NBC drama pilot Wonder Woman, that David E. Kelley‘s revisioning talents have been given the greenlight by D.C. comic to work on. In the reboot franchise, from Warner Bros. TV, Wonder Woman (Diana Prince) is an L.A based crime fighter. In addition she doubles as a successful corporate executive and a modern woman. Finding life balance with a super hero kicker action line is the elements of the show’s hook. A spec buy history by NBC via new chief Bob Greenblatt late last month is how this TV series got into Jeffrey Reiner’s scopes.

RUSSIA’S VLADIMIR PUTIN SAYS LEONARDO DICAPRIO’S EFFORTS TO SAVE TIGERS IS “MUZHIK”

Straight up fact. There are only 3,500 tigers left in the wild in the world today.

Leonardo DiCaprio has pledged $1 million to help solve the issue of tiger poaching/ hunting. DiCaprio flew to Russia for a summit meeting on tiger salvation and preservation. He met with Vladimir Putin. It was an arduous flight. A Delta Airline plane DiCaprio was travelling in on Monday was forced to make an emergency landing after losing an engine. A second plane Leonardo was aboard was forced to make an unscheduled refuelling stop in Helsinki.

When Putin saw Leonardo arrive at the 13 nations summit meeting to save tigers, he stopped his speech and praised the actor for his tenacity to endure. ”A person with less stable nerves could have decided against coming, could have read it as a sign – that it was not worth going,” Mr Putin said. The Russian prime minister said that, in Russia, DiCaprio’s efforts made him a “muzhik” – or “real man”.

Dicaprio responded by revealing that he had two Russian grandparents and is looking forward to reconnecting with St Petersburg where they were both from. Meanwhile the outcome for tigers is to double their numbers in the wild by the year 2022.

LEONARDO DICAPRIO ON BEING STALKED

New York Daily News has this to say about stalker situations: “A Canadian woman accused of mollywhopping “Inception” star Leonardo DiCaprio in the face with a beer bottle (don’t know if it was cobra beer or not) in 2005 was ordered on Wednesday to stay at least 500 yards away from the actor.

DiCaprio was at a private Hollywood party in June 2005 (private parties are always the ones to watch in California; because sometimes egocentric types use their houses as traps to trap stars), when he was hit on the side of his head with broken beer bottle. The injury sent the actor to the hospital, where he received about a dozen stitches to his face and neck.

Sometimes woman stalkers (the one’s behind closed doors) can be more vicious than men are. But hey, I’d know very little about that, right? But if I did, I would say such woman are laws unto themselves. They need  a spanking. Just not from Leo. Because Leo is too busy, just trying to work.

INCEPTION AT THE FLIX WITH EMILE KANIM

Tonight Casa Emile rocked out to Inception. Leonardo DiCaprio and Ellen Page and Ken Watanabe did Chris Nolan proud. 

Uncle Emile’s comments: That was a good film. The science of filmmaking and the special effects were enough to hold your attention, even without the good actors. I only fell asleep for five minutes once. 

That wasn’t bad. I think I fell asleep for five minutes three times! It was like a Peter Jackson film in parts, too long. 

My thoughts though: A film that takes an audience on a journey that delves into dreams, depicting the subconscious, dreams of the subconscious within dreams of the subconscious–indicates that people the world over (as gaged by box office takings) are basically recovery from shock and looking for purpose, truth and meaning for their life’s direction.

Chaos, like a global economic crises, a gulf oil spill disaster etc are all dream chompers. Perhaps too these are all signs that dreams are being threatened by ‘systems’ that haven’t worked for the earth’s people, or the earth too. Good people need to meet with good people and share, nurture, grow and build new dreams together. 

When we are, our dream and a nation’s future (combined, the world’s future) are the summation of our abilities to dream new dreams bravely, like dream architects, I am reminded of Joseph in the bible, who could dive into King’s dreams (like Dan Cobb and friends of Inception), and expose the deeper truth’s like Christopher Nolan, alluded in cinema, needs to happen for a whole generation of people.

Psychoanalysis much in cinema? This is that defining film. Expect this cerebral filmmaking motif, to generate similar films. Cerebral for Nolan, is a game of ‘pass the parcel’ truth for grown ups, fused with a timeline shuffle as a story telling, narrative device. 

A good film. I like the way that a team works together to uncover the truth, extract the lies and rebuild on truth and what’s real for each other, in a collective of dreams. The more eyes that can see, the better, in these times. Thanks Uncle Emile. 

And “if an idea” is the most powerful thing that can alter the world, which is why we’d “have to steal it” (consumer culture suppliers 101 rhetoric), I’d steal the idea of “war” and re-alter it to become peace.

WARNER BILLION BROTHERS AT THE BOX OFFICE

Alright, this is a bit of a Hollywood studio glory story. Here we go.

According to IMDB News, Warner Brothers announced that on Sunday, July 25th, the dubB. Studios rocked it out to become the 1st film studio in Hollywood history to earn $1 billion at the domestic box office, with non stop movie action across to solid years in a row.

Adding to their modest efforts for Tinsel Town achievement in cinema, Warner Brothers also have crossed the billion-dollar threshold for eleven of the past twelve years.

Dan FellmanWarner Bros. Pictures President of Domestic Distribution made the annoucement.  Christopher Nolan’s “Inception,” gave the studio the wings to reach this benchmark as the film has taken in $142.9 million to date.

The year began well for the dubB with Guy Ritchie’s “Sherlock Holmes,” opening on Christmas Day last year with good box office earnings. Alcon Entertainment’s action adventure “The Book of Eli” also gave Warner Brothers a good lift. Bullish entertainment. Good to see.

CHRIS NOLAN’S INCEPTION SCRIPT’S TIMELINE SHUFFLE: LEONARDO DICAPRIO AND KEN WATANABE ARE AT THE CENTER OF HOLLYWOOD FILMMAKING

Chris Nolan‘s ability to go back to his beginnings of Momento styled flashbacks, flashforwards and fiddling with Hollywood’s holy grail of a scripts ‘timeline’, fused with high action, like The Dark Knight box office success, has got Hollywoood in a tail spin, this weekend.

It’s clear that Nolan wants his Oscar, he’s like an auteur with his distinctly ‘different’ approach. He’s picked Leonardo DiCaprio to  be the face of his brilliance. Thankfully Ken Watanabe is at the center of Hollywood too, in Inception‘s casting line up. Go Ken. More Asians and Asian-Americans in Hollywood films needed. America is changing. 

It has to be said, that already I’m kind of bored with every Tom, Dick, Harry, Aunt Mary and their wannabe filmmaker or a film critic dog, commenting on Nolan’s filmmaking messages, when it comes to ‘dream sequences’ and their ‘meanings’ in this film.

It’s like rehashed Freud and Jung, critical theory lectures from college, without an original thought of analysis from most critics, spewing out across supposedly respected sites of news and entertainment news in America. I can’t believe many of these people are actually paid journalists or arts critics in the land of the brave and free. It’s like, grow an original set of creative brain cells to do some worthy arts and entertainment analysis with. Lol!

Anyway, here’s one of the better ones, A.O Scott and his take on Nolan’s allusive ‘mind altering’ cerebral filmmaking motifs–which to be honest, goes back to messing with Hollywood filmmaker’s ‘holy’ (or ‘tapu’ as we’d say back in New Zealand) measuring stick of the film narratives timeline structure and how this is always didactically used in Hollywood. Go here to read A.O. 

To really get Nolan’s script, as this film hinges on this (Leo and Marion Cottilard‘s eye candy aside), you need to think of a pack of cards. They are all in order, all the cards (pictures, scenes needed to make the film) Nolan already put in the pack, but then for a distinct point of difference, you shuffle the pack (of movie scenes).

The shuffle determines a ‘new’ kind of card game, then you just make a film with the shuffle. Everyone thinks you’re brilliant. And for having the confidence to just mix it up and back that methodology, as an artist, Nolan is. More Courage in America needed.

DESPITE UNEXPECTED JOLIE FANS SUPPORT: INCEPTION BEATS SALT AT THE BOX OFFICE FOR #1

Look at Emile Kanim, writer of the book Plentitude, a book about earth sustainability, shining a green lantern light on Hollywood’s leading lady of action movies, Angelina Jolie this weekend, while (um) studying hard doing research for his upcoming book.

“Salt of the earth research?” Yea. Too funny!

Angelina Jolie had stiff competition this weekend against Inception‘s stranglehold on the box office. News articles like this from the California Chronicle, describe Jolie as having only two expressions, “stony pout” and “sexy pout” as female critics drunk her blood sounding more like medical 420 commentators here in California, than supportive critics of chick flicks that are action oriented.

The article goes on to say: “Her earnestness, both as an actress and a celebrity, just sort of bugs me, and any movie I’ve ever seen that she’s in has worn me out. Too much crazy! Too much brow furrowing! Shooting! Cutting! Pouting!” –In a weird Hollywood way, this could be viewed as a great compliment if you were kind. 

Although earning a whopping $36.5 million at the box office with Salt, Chris Nolan‘s Inception clocked in at #1, retaining the crown from Jolie with $43.5 million earned in its second weekend, reports U.S Weekly

Congratulations to Nolan/ DiCaprio & Phillip Noyce(dir)/ Jolie for making Hollywood the hottest place in filmmaking entertainment this weekend. A good result. 

Jolie however sits at the top of IMDB’s website, Hollywood’s industry working “bible” website for actors, directors, producers profiles. Needless to say Oscar nominees will most probably be on their way for both Angelina and Leo, next Oscar nods round. Good work.
