AARON JAKUBENKO IS
ELVEN PRINCE IN 'SHANNARA'
In today's TV news, MTV's small screen adaptation of famous epic fantasy novels SHANNARA has a new cast member: ten episode series based on Terry Brooks' books will see Aaron Jakubenko starring in the story set in our world, thousands of years after the destruction of our civilization. The focus is on the SHANNARA family, whose descendants are empowered with ancient magic and whose adventures continuously reshape the future of the world. Aaron Jakubenko will play Ander, Amberle’s uncle, an Elven Prince with the reputation for being the wild party boy who has yet to find his way in the world. I've reported recently that Poppy Drayton will play Amberle, an Elven princess who is the guardian of the ancient Ellcrys tree.

'THE BOY IN THE DRESS'
TRAILER FOR BBC MOVIE
The second trailer for today is for another delightful and also educational movie which will be shown at BBC in the festive days at the end of December: to air at Boxing Day THE BOY IN THE DRESS, small screen adaptation of popular David Walliams' book has the story following a 12-year-old boy, Dennis, who enjoys cross-dressing, and focusing on how his family and friends react to it at home and school. Little Billy Kennedy plays Dennis, while David Walliams also makes an appearance in the one-hour special, alongside Kate Moss and Jennifer Saunders!
WHILE WE'RE YOUNG looks great! Light and fluffy with an excellent cast :)
ReplyDeleteAlthough I find them extremely embarrassing, I do find most of Stiller's comedies funny unlike Adam Sandler's ones which I mostly cannot stand
DeleteLikewise, funnily enough.
Delete:)
DeleteWhile We're Young looks awesome. I'm at the age where I have arthritis arthritis but I feel like I could hang with the 18 year olds...
ReplyDeletehe he he ... I'm not even forty but already feel like my body is about double the age....
DeleteAhh...so Ben Stiller has officially reached the age where he's landing "middle aged" roles! Depressing for those of us who are around his age (I think?).
ReplyDeletealso seeing other actors play his "dad". Not even close to Jerry Stiller
DeleteWell, he's been sporting grey hair for some years now :)
DeleteAaron Jakubenko - beautiful eyes - crystal like.
ReplyDeleteStiller is not a favorite but the movie seems cute. I enjoyed the trailer.
Boy with the dress - honestly, I don't think orange is his color.
Methinks gorgeous Aaron will be a very nice fit for an elf! Can't wait for that one!
DeleteYep, he'd look better in baby blue :)
definitely baby blue :p
Deleteme looks good in baby blue too,,, not a dress of course :)
DeleteWhile We're Young looks like it will be fun and a good reminder for those of us at that age we can still act young. :)
ReplyDeleteyep, young yes, immature never :)
DeleteStller's generation of comedians isn't very funny. I miss Steve Martin, Bill Muray, Rick Moranis, John Candy, Tom Hanks... You know, when I was still young?
ReplyDeleteMuray being funny is very debatable if you ask moi :)
DeleteI'm with Blue. I miss the comedies like Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Father of the Bride, etc. it was just good, clean humor.
Deletenever heard of the first three, but did of FATHER OF THE BRIDE
DeleteThere you go. Thank you, Theresa.
DeleteThree? You mean two. What... you've NEVER heard of Planes, Trains and Automobiles?
Say
It
Ain't
So!"
"Those aren't pillows!" No? CLICK!
never indeed
DeleteNow I'm depressed.
DeleteI'd love to see While We're Young.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Kate Moss acted.
methinks she just did a cameo in this one
DeleteWHILE WE'RE YOUNG i like this movie !
ReplyDeleteCheers .
glad to hear it, Vincent
DeleteThe Boy In The Dress looks fantastic and filled with humour. It astounds me that people today still have so many misconceptions about cross dressing. It's not gender confusion, it's not about sexuality, it's simply about preference. Eddie Izzard made great strides in the UK whilst performing cross dressed. I hope this movie does more good as well..
ReplyDeleteI agree, dear, it is so thoughtful of BBC to make such a movie and air it in the family festive time!
Delete"The Boy in the Dress" looks charming! I'd love to be able to see it but who knows if it will be shown over here? Can't really see PBS picking up this one.
ReplyDeleteIt should show up on the Netflix but it will take six months to a year.
Deleteif GANGSTA GRANNY was aired at BBC America or PBC, this one will too :)
