Vampire Diaries: The Last Dance

Vampire Diaries continues down its path of high-paced compelling material with so many twists and turns you begin questioning if what you’re seeing is even real. It’s really about which side can out trick the other, even within the same side some are left in the dark. The audience is stuck between the two sides, knowing pieces of truth from both, but ultimately being blinded. This makes for a very exciting episode, pushing us towards the Klaus showdown where death is sure to follow, the only question is who’s.

Sanctuary Season 4: All-New Sneak Peek Clip

I didn’t realize I missed season 3 of Sanctuary, which sucks because now I have some questions about season 4. Like what happened to Helen Magnus’ daughter, and when did Bigfoot start talking regularly? I would watch the DVDs, but there are none, so I’m kind of screwed. I guess I can just read the wiki page… Anywhoo, here is the sneak peek of next week’s episode.

Kristen Stewart Half-Naked on Breaking Dawn

I have to admit, I did see Twilight in theaters, and I did watch the second movie with a friend on DVD, but I’m no expert on the books or anything, so if I get this wrong too bad. I think Bella (Kristen Stewart) eventually bangs the vampire (Robert Pattinson) and has a vampire baby. The virginity stealing takes place in Eclipse(?), and the vampire coven, the Volturi, try to abort the baby in Breaking… Oh who cares! Here is Kristen Stewart half-naked on the set of Breaking Dawn, which is currently shooting somewhere. If you’re a Pattinson fan, you can see half-naked pictures of him on Celeb Buzz.

Summer’s Coming: Summer Glau – FHM UK

Summer is coming and so are the summer superhero movies, Thor and Captain America, which will lead us to Joss Whedon’s Avengers in 2012. I thought for sure Whedon would cast Summer Glau as Wasp, but I guess none of the Whedonverse actors made the cut… Maybe she’ll be in the sequel.

AnnaLynne and Angel McCord: Sisters in Bikinis

Every time I see attention whore AnnaLynne McCord it reminds of a movie I’ve seen listed on IMDB, Two Wolves. The horror/thriller is said to be in “pre-production” and is being directed by Alex Wright (Seance). According to Pop Star, the film stars Malcolm McDowell (although he is not listed on the IMDB page) and McCord… And that’s all the info I can find. I’m not sure if the film will ever see the light of day, Wright is currently involved with two other projects, and if my memory serves me right, Two Wolves has been is “pre-production” for a long time.
