I Am Link

.
--- Knick Of Time - I didn't realize that Steven Soderbergh's The Knick is back for its second season this Friday (in my old age I've gotten bad with dates; I had no idea that Fargo was back until yesterday afternoon right before it aired) but back it is, and there's a nifty piece from the set over at Vulture. I was a big big huge fan of the first season, and I'm looking forward to more shooting up via penis shaft and noseless ladies and hopefully they'll find a way to get Michael Angarano to show that hot little bum of his.
.
--- Fake Fur - I was psyched to see that the gloriously underrated Steve Zahn (speaking of hot little bums) had gotten cast in the next Planet of the Apes movie (called War of the Planet of the Apes) but then is aw that he's going the motion-capture route for it and will be a monkey. (Ape, whatever.) That's a loss of a hot little bum, dammit. They have cast some dude named Gabriel Chavarria as a human though, and he's a looker (see below) so I guess that Damn Dirty Monkey Movie won't be totally eye-candy-free thank goodness.
.
--- Filth Forever - Next week would've marked the 70th birthday of Harris Glenn Milstead, aka the divine Divine, and Baltimore Magazine got to chat with John Waters and Pat Moran about their friend - love the bit where they talk about what he'd be doing now and how totally into gay marriage he'd have been since it was an excuse to throw a lavish party.
.
--- The Boy Wonder - Everybody's fighting over Taron Egerton's hot little bum (I wonder if I can work "hot little bum" into nearly every single one of these stories...?) and it almost led to a stand-off between two studios, but they worked it out and he will star in both the Kingsman sequel as well as a new Robin Hood movie, both filming next year. Phew, bum crisis averted.
.
--- Queen's Subjects - I love this story - our pal Murtada got to ask Cate Blanchett a question at the New York Film Festival this past weekend! I was there at the same screening of Carol and I heard all of this and he tells the story wonderfully, go read it at his site. It was a lovely little moment. And make sure you read Nick Davis' comment because he pinpoints one of my favorite moments in the film, Blanchett specific, that struck me both times watching it.
.
--- Camp Horror - I hadn't read much beforehand about the slasher-comedy The Final Girls, which was released last weekend - it's one of those movies I knew I'd watch being so right up my alley that I didn't feel the need to spoil it. I will probably review it shortly but for now, now that I have watched it, here's a little chat with the film's creators Joshua John Miller and M.A. Fortin, a gay couple. (Thanks Mac) Miller is also the son of the actor Jason Miller, aka Father Carras from The Exorcist, and wow this all makes so much sense now.
.
--- King Cobblepot - I refused to watch the first season of Gotham because I have a deadly allergy to Jada Pinkett Smith (only the Scream sequel offered a momentary immunity that one time) but I think her character (Fish Mooney hahahahahaha) is maybe dead now? With that in mind the casting of Paul Reubens as the Penguin's father in the show, bringing him back to the role he played in Batman Returns, might definitely get me on-board.
.
--- And Finally I wish every day included a lengthy conversation with Toni Collette for me to read, but since that's not the case getting one today at least is a treat -- here she is talking to the New Zealand Tribune, mostly about her new role opposite Drew Barrymore, Dominic Cooper, Dominic Cooper's Kilt, and cancer. (thanks Mac) There is a little bit about Krampus too, which cannot get here quick enough. Miss You Already is out at the start of November, while Krampus is out in December. Toni Collette World Domination! Took the damn world long enough.
