The Sexy Beast is right to put Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis at the top of their list of hottest lesbian scenes in film -- the scene between them in Black Swan really is something to talk about. Not as hot as, say, Gia, but you'd have to be crazy to watch Gia for the sex given the subject matter.
We won't ruin it for you. Go Netflix it. Anyway, guess who wasn't crazy about this scene?
It's a very Los Angeles thing, this food truck business. Tired of cities with their food snobs parading around talking about their local street vendors, we went and did the same thing. Of course, we can't really stop in the middle of the street because nobody walks here, but we know car chases, so we dumped the food in trucks and dedicated ourselves to chasing after them so we could enjoy some noms standing awkwardly around a parking lot before going back home and voila! A craze was born. The food truck craze.
There is success and then there is success, and in this town, you're not successful until there is a movie attached to your name. Food trucks, previously largely limited to reality TV, are about to debut with some serious names... in porn.
Word has it that Jasmin St. Claire is coming back to grace our screens in... a zombie flick! The porn doll, who retired in 2000, is joining Vincent Pastore of Sopranos fame on a flick that's being billed as Zombie Land meets Dazed and Confused.

Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.
She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita.
So begins Vladimir Nabokov's classic study of the brutal tyranny of obsession between the narrator Humbert Humbert and the 12-year-old nymphet. But this is no parody of the controversial work. Nor is there even a nod to the original beyond, perhaps, some pop culture references and those infamous heart-shaped glasses.

In celebration of the Playboy Bunny's 50th anniversary, Copro Gallery is exhibiting Playboy Redux, a show featuring the work of over 40 artists, all of whom were asked to re-interpret the Playboy Bunny.
The show has already hit Pittsburg and Chicago, but the Copro show running December 18 to January 8, promises previously unseen pieces to savor. The reception is tomorrow, so hit LAist for all the details.
In 2008, a remake of the 1939 classic The Women came out. Based on the success of the first movie, the screenplay of which was written by the inimitable Anita Loos of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes fame, was a vicious representation of the shallow, disloyal friendships we foster within our social groups, and how these affect our personal lives. The modern version, a weak copy, pretends that in this overly technological world, our connections are somehow more real. Beyond that, the plot isn't that much different.
Since we were exploring cheating today, our editor posted the dialog in the scene between Meg Ryan (who plays portagonist Mary) and Candice Bergen (who plays her mother) where they discuss the affair Ryan's husband is having.
Mary Haines: What do you mean 'what am I going to do'? I'm going to tell him to move out.
Catherine Frazier: Well, that's not very smart. Someone once said that when you don't know what to do, do nothing.
That, in a nutshell, is her mother's advice -- identical to the advice given by the mother in the original. As in the original, the daughter does not take it. We decided to ask Twitter what they thought. The results were surprising:
Just in time for the release of Disney's Tron: Legacy, an independent porn studio is working on a porn parody of the classic, which they've titled Pron.
Up-and-coming porn beauty Zoe Voss will be playing Quorra and has been busy uploading pictures from the set to keep fans updated. As reported by Bleeding Cool, the film is being directed by Sam Hain and Leeroy Myers -- who else?

In this world of user-generated content and piracy, porn stars have been forced to seriously up the ante. Massive fan-based gang bangs, books, reality shows, movies and constant Twitter interaction -- you name it, they're doing it.
Lupe Fuentes is doing the porn-to-mainstream flick, but with a twist. Instead of bothering to prove serious acting chops, she's taking a stab at a Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino-type of campy, action-packed entertainment.

Two weeks ago or so we mentioned the Sex and the City porn parody had caught our eye, so we hit up New Sensations and asked them to send us two copies for the sex kits we'd be sending out to the two best lingerie duel voters. And because we can't keep our greedy hands to ourselves, we decided to make the DVDs extra special by pre-viewing the film right here at the NakedCity LA newsroom.
Our editor AV Flox was a huge fan of Candace Bushnell's original column and also enjoyed the show while it ran, despite the fact it bore very little resemblance to the column (by far a darker and more cynical thing, and one that audiences would have detested on sight, even though the pilot made a valiant attempt at it).
Having absolutely zero expectations that the parody would resemble either of the two -- or even the two movies that followed -- we sat down to watch and were remarkably surprised at how well-written the screenplay by Bensen Herst and Lee Roy Myers was. Myers has proven himself a master of the "sitcum" and it shows: his directing bears a striking resemblance to the original Sex and the City show.
