The L Word, the ground-breaking SHOWTIME series is starting it's 6th and final season in January 2009. As much as the fans of the show would like for the series to continue, there is no way to make that happen. But as one of the stars of the series, Jennifer Beals herself said at an L Word fan convention in Blackpool in November last year, if we make enough noise, there is a good chance we might get an L Word movie!. So please sign this petition and write to Amy Baer to help make that happen and please refer this link to any other fans of The L Word you know so that we can make this happen !

Obama's eve filled with movie, golf - Honolulu Advertiser

Posted: 01 Jan 2010 01:44 AM PST

Windward Oahu residents were able to catch a couple of glimpses of President Obama today, as the vacationing president took in a movie and played a round of golf.

Obama arrived at Mid-Pacific Country Club at 1:19 p.m. today for a round of golf with friends Greg Orme, Bobby Titcomb and Mike Ramos.

The group played for more than five hours. Although the president missed the final putt on the 18th hole, he got a big cheer from the bystanders on the road next to the Mid-Pacific Country Club.

The group left the golf course at 6:33 p.m. and returned to their rented vacation home in Kailua, where they first family planned to spend New Year's Eve.

Earlier today, Obama, the first family and friends finished watching a private viewing of the movie "Avatar" at Windward Mall and left at 12:32 p.m., emerging from a side door at Borders bookstore.

"A group of more than a half dozen children came out first, along with fathers Eric Whitaker and Marty Nesbitt; the kids piled into a van while a grown up man we did not recognize did a head count to make sure they were all there," according to a media pool report by Peter Baker of The New York Times.

Obama stepped into the sunlight wearing sunglasses, a dark blue short-sleeve shirt, brown slacks and a BlackBerry on his belt. He was accompanied by his two daughters.

"A light cheer went up from the crowd of onlookers in the parking lot and Potus waved at them," according to Baker's report.

The presidential motorcade then returned to the family's beachfront compound in Kailua at 12:51 p.m.

Reporters were told the first family will be departing for New Year's activities.

The special screening of the digital 3-D version of "Avatar" was arranged before the first regular showing to minimize disruption for other moviegoers.

One of the mall's nine theaters was reserved for the first family, but the rest remained open to the public.

Jason Filardi's top movie picks - TheDay

Posted: 01 Jan 2010 12:54 AM PST

Who better to talk about last year's films than someone who's written a pair of them? And so we asked Jason Filardi - the Mystic native whose impressive screenwriting credits include "17 Again" and "Bringing Down the House" - what his five favorite movies of 2009 were. He e-mailed these, in no particular order.

class=hardreturn>

1. PARANORMAL ACTIVITY: I think delivering genuine scares is the hardest thing to do in film, and this creepy little movie did it. It proved that you don't need a lot of special F/X, blood, gore or things to jump out at you to be succesful in the horror genre. And besides that, this simple film was made for $15,000 and went on to make over a hundred million. It's the American Dream.

class=hardreturn>

2. INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS: I read this script a while before the movie came out and loved it. It had all the great elements the old Tarantino films like "True Romance" and "Pulp Fiction." Snappy dialogue. Memorable characters. And lots of Tarantino-esque violence. But this one also incorporated a revisionist twist of history. Tarantino at his best.

class=hardreturn>

3. PRECIOUS: This movie is about a 16-year-old girl who suffers through incest, rape, physical abuse and ultimately AIDS. Did I make you want to go see it? Well you should. The film tackles this tough subject matter with brutal honesty, but at the bleakest of moments allows us to escape through Precious' fantasy sequences - giving us much needed moments to catch our breath. Amazing performances all around and the screenwriter of this film is from Waterford. Very cool.

class=hardreturn>

4. UP: I'm not normally one for animated movies, but this one I really enjoyed. The first 15 minutes are genuinely heartbreaking. This "kids" movie deals with very adult subject themes such as mortality, death and abandonment. Funny and visceral.

class=hardreturn>

5. SIN NOMBRE: A Spanish speaking film about a Honduran girl trying to make it to the United States crossing paths with a member of the violent LA Mara Salvatrucha gang who is trying to outrun his "brothers." Visually awesome, this film takes you places you've never been before ... nor ever want to go back to. Two words ... Face Tattoos. These gang members are so believable you'll swear ... well ... that they are real gang members.

class=hardreturn>

And one more for good measure:

6. 17 AGAIN: Unfortunately there isn't enough room on this page to discuss why this film is so spectacular. You'll just have to trust me.

Movie casting call held in Thibodaux - Alexandria Daily Town Talk

Posted: 01 Jan 2010 12:39 AM PST

THIBODAUX, La. — A movie being filmed in Louisiana is looking for actors.

A casting call is being held Wednesday evening in Thibodaux for "Remnants," an action thriller set to be filmed in New Orleans and Thibodaux next year. The casting call will be from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Hampton Inn & Suites.

"Remnants" is about nine strangers who find themselves holed up together in a rural Texas farmhouse as the U.S. enters World War 3. They wait for news from the government while fending off hunger, radiation sickness and a horde of frightened and dying refugees.

Movie makers are seeking actors to play refugees in both speaking and non-speaking roles.

Previous acting experience is preferred. Anyone interested is asked to bring a headshot and resume.

Obama hits gym, watches movie, golfs in Hawaii - WBOC

Posted: 01 Jan 2010 12:54 AM PST

KANEOHE BAY, Hawaii (AP) - President Barack Obama went golfing on New Year's Eve.

The president hit the links at Mid-Pacific Country Club in the same Honolulu suburb of Kailua where he's renting a beachfront home for the holidays.

Obama earlier went to Windward Mall in Kaneohe to see a 3-D version of the movie "Avatar" with his daughters and family friends.

They enjoyed a special screening of the movie and had a theater to themselves before regular showings began for the day.

Obama started his day with a workout at the gym on the Marine Corps base in Kaneohe Bay.

The Honolulu-born president has been vacationing in Hawaii since Christmas Eve. He's due to return to Washington next week.
