story: when Chilean military dictator Augusto Pinochet, facing international pressure, calls for a referendum on his presidency in 1988, opposition leaders persuade a brash young advertising executive, Rene Saavedra (Gael GarcĂa Bernal), to spearhead their campaign. With scant resources and constant scrutiny by the president's watchmen, Saavedra and his team devise an audacious plan to win the election and free their country from oppression. Meanwhile, Ethan Hawke will star in PRE- DESTINATION Sony's sf action which follows the life of a time travelling government agent sent on a series of time travel journeys designed to stop future killers.

CHICAGO FIRE TRAILER
And here's some action for my boys and some hunk meat for my girls :) - the first trailer for NBC's new Fall show CHICAGO FIRE. The new series from the creators of LAW AND ORDER, to start airing this Autumn, is described as an action-driven drama exploring the complex and heroic men and women of the Chicago Fire Department. The cast will be filled with stunning faces, lead by two gorgeous hunks - top
model Taylor Kinney (alaso known as Lady Gaga's ex boyfriend whom she dumped before starting her new world tour) and HOUSE's beloved doctor Jesse Spencer!
Can't wait for Chicago Fire!!! Jesse Spencer is soooooooo hot!!!!
ReplyDeleteAustralians have something in the air which is good for raising hunks and babes :)
DeleteHe will always be Ron Weasley to me
ReplyDeleteto me never :) I've never watched PLOPPER saga :)
DeleteSadly he will be Ron Weasley always to me too, I watched all the Plopper films haha. A movie title No, wow they are really running out of title ideas, what next? Yes! Maybe! Pffft!
ReplyDeleteNot sure I'd enjoy Chicago Fire much either though, but you never know.
well it is a categorical NO :) We said such NO to our own tyrant, you know last decade.
DeleteWe'll there will be some fire for sure. this way or that way :)
I'm glad I'm not the only person who refused to see Harry Plopper, much less read the horribly written books.
DeleteSomebody has to be in the resistance, darling. Somebody has to oppose HARRY PLONKERS, DARK KNIGHT, TWILIGHT and other examples of morbid darkness and absence of talent and vision.
DeleteI'll oppose reading Harry Plopper and anything to do with Twilight any day, have to watch Batman though.
Deletetraitor! Throw him to the lions!
DeleteInteresting picks here today.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's CBGB.
we're in the shades of orange today :)
DeleteThan my resources have made the mistake.
I only know because I'd been there once before it closed in 2008.
DeleteHope you had fun :) I corrected it!
DeleteWhy We Broke Up looks like it might be good, I'm into high school dramas believe it or not. Other than that nothing caught my interest as much as it usually does :( Chicago Fire doesn't seem that good, or at least its not my style.
ReplyDeletesorry for that, but you know I have to cater for drama fans too sometimes :)
DeleteNo its ok lol. I like high school dramas.
Deletethey can be fun :)
DeleteI think you just introduced me to my new favorite show - Chicago Fire and bonus, Jesse Spencer is in it! What a hunk he is =)))
ReplyDeleteWhen you showed the younger picture I was so confused hahaha
we do love us some Spencer spice in our candy treats, don't we? :) God bless blond hunks of the world
DeleteI'll give an "Amen" to that Dezz!
Deleteeven the pope would bless that :)
Deletehehehe
DeleteI keep scrolling back up for some another look at Taylor Kinney too!
how could you not to? :))
DeleteGlad to see Ron Weasely in a big film. Good to have others view him as another character (though I just called him by his character's name and not real name!)
ReplyDeleteAnd Chicago Fire looks HOT. I hope they film in Chicago because I may have to go try to be an extra! :)
you're close to Chicago?
Deletethe show looks interesting
ReplyDeleteit certainly does
DeleteOh, that looks intense. I might check it out.
ReplyDeletethe Autumn is not soon enough :)
Deleteooo...Chigaco Fire looks interesting. There's some hotness going on there ;)
ReplyDeleteit's all on fire :)
DeleteI'll watch anything with Alan Rickman in it!
ReplyDeletehe's a nice gent!
DeleteGael GarcĂa Bernal is one of the best and NO seems like an important story. Great news, thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course it'll be great to see Rupert Grint apres Potter. Very much enjoyed his DRIVING LESSONS.
glad you liked the news on Gael! I think he is also doing something with Serbia's own Emir Kusturica soon.
DeleteGa Ga had some of that and threw it back? Whaaat?!?
ReplyDeletethat's why she is called Ga Ga :)
DeleteI believe she said she doesn't want to take him with her on a year long tour and doesn't want for her music to suffer from her private life. I kinda understand her, and I kinda don't :)
Serbians sure know how to put on a show. I got caught up in the beautiful music and almost forgot to read the post, lol.
ReplyDeleteLooking at Gael made me feel like a pedophile. He seems so young . .
And I don't care what you say Dezzy, I'm glad to see the Plopper stars gettiing good roles :)
Time traveling themes are getting a bit over-used, but I might have to watch it for Ethan Hawke. I will definitely be watching Chicago Fire. That was an awesome trailer; really showed off the characters and the conflicts.
Thanks for sharing these Dez :) I missed ya while I was out.
........dhole
thanks, Donnzie, that's means a lot to me, I'm extremely excited about our performance at the Eurosong finals this Saturday. The vlip is from the semifinals on Tuesday. I think we have huge chances to win again! We certainly have the most powerful song in the sea of trashy pop hits. I will be writing more about this tonight in my post!
DeleteGael is not that young, although he seems like he is :) I think he's about my age or even older.
Oh hell to the yeah, Chicago Fire is on my must see list! You know all those guys are hot and not just cuz they fight fires. ;) We have a hot fireman here in my hood. Victor..Now there is a tasty treat. LOL
ReplyDeleteThat picture of Rupert is stunning. I've never seen him look so good. I can't wait to read more on CBGB.
oh, a fireman named Victor.... sounds very naughty :) Reminds me of Victor Webster and his constant nakedness :) Google him!
DeleteI was surprised by Rupert's pic too. he is so lovely in it, and he is not generally a gorgeous guy, although we do love ginger spice :)
Victor Webster is the ultimate in HOT. Yowza, baby! I have loved him since Mutant X television show and whoa does he need to work more. ;))
Deletewowza indeed :) and he's not even my type LOL
DeleteI don't know if I can take that movie seriously. Shia Labeouf is kind of silly and I can't see Grint as anyone other than Ron Weasley.
ReplyDeleteyep, Shia is not the one to be taken seriously.
DeleteI'm surprised Rupert is easily getting work after Harry Potter
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised too, none of those kids has any talent.
Deleteheheh Chicago Fire is very you Mr Dezzy!!
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend
not really, Scottie, I probably won't even watch it :) You know I do only epic and sf :)
DeleteThe news show about firemen looks rubbish XD
ReplyDeleteDid Jesse Spencer kinda drop his australian accent?
I'm happy for Rupert Grint, he's a good actor (better than Dan Radcliffe ^^)
I find it difficult to establish, since the only sense I can use on Jesse is sight :) and touch, but that won't happen :)
DeleteIt'll be interesting to see how the main young Harry Potter stars get on now that the franchise is over. I always thought Tom Felton had the most potential and his new film looks like it could give him a worthy character to play. Daniel Radcliffe has shown his diversity already and I do think Rupert Grint has potential, particularly, for comedic roles.
ReplyDeleteI must admit I don't like any of the young actors from PLOPPER saga. They just don't have talent nor charisma. The girl especially.
DeleteHarry Plopper????? For shame, Dez...for shame!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteoh, trust me sister, I have nastier names for the saga :) Like Harry Plonkers, Harry Pooper.... :)
DeleteYou know I won't have cable in my home because of all the horrid things that are shown on telly these days so I won't be able to see Chicago Fire until Netflix carries it. The men are stunning to look at though, hmmmmm good eye candy.
ReplyDeleteI may watch CBGB, but I'd have to see a trailer first. Hollywood has a way of mucking up movies about music history and I can rarely stand to watch them
After the rash of violent movies for teens, a high school romance looks refreshing. I just hope the captain of the basketball team isn't like so many high school American athletes in real life. They are so revered that they can drink, do drugs and get failing grades and the schools don't mind. They usually get a couple of girls pregnant before they graduate too. If Hollywood lies on this one and people believe it, they should win an Oscar.
CHICAGO FIRE could be good, not just as eyecandy fest, but as a show which might give us an insight on people who selflessly put their lives in danger to save others. I'm sure there will be touching stories which will bring more respect and love for all firemen and firewomen if there are such.
DeleteIt's true, high school jocks are usually like that.
I normally don't watch TV shows but that Chicago fire looks like it could be worth a look. I wonder if they can find a spot for my ass to make a guest appearance?
ReplyDeleteI will see what I can do, but as you know we would love to see your ass on the small or big screen :)
DeleteChicago Fire: Hot fire, hot fire-men.
ReplyDeleteit is getting awfully hot here ;)
DeleteHarry Plopper..ha..ha... and oh my, all those hot guys ~ hot series ~
ReplyDeleteha ha indeed :) And hot hot indeed too :)
DeleteGlad to know that Rupert finally has new movies :)
ReplyDeleteHe looks gorgeous in that photo. Although I haven't watched Harry Potter since book 7 disappointed me but I really hope the young stars could step out of their harry potter shadow.
he does look lovely in that pic :) I'm happy to have found it.
