Hugh Jackman and His Flying Daughter

Hugh Jackman knows that the best way to get around NYC is to hold on to a flying toddler. It's really the only way to travel.

Probably.

Heidi Klum is a wonder of a woman, that's a given, but did you also know that she's a fighter of crime and a founding member of the Justice League? It's true(ish).

Heidi and Seal celebrated Henry's 3rd birthday with a superhero costume party.

That's super!

The Truth About Christian Bale

Karen — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 19:03:00 GMT

Reports of Christian Bale allegedly assaulting his mother and sister seem to be nothing more than drama.

“Christian was stressed, but he didn’t lay a finger on anyone. Instead, he flew off the handle and cussed his mother. He just got very loud because his mother was saying some very outrageous things about him, and his wife,” the source said.

Bale’s lawyers issued a statement Tuesday denying the allegations of assault.

The actor’s sister, Sharon Bale, told Britain’s Telegraph an “incident” had occurred but would not offer up any details surrounding the events that lead to her brother’s arrest.

“OK, there was an incident but the police are dealing with it,” she said. “It is an extremely sensitive situation. There is nothing more I can say.”

Jenny Bale was also tight-lipped, but said they did not call the police.

“Yes, I was there, and yes there was a family situation, but the police are handling it and I cannot say anymore at the moment,” Jenny told the Telegraph. “We didn’t call the police to the scene. I can’t say anymore, but we didn’t call the police.”

Thank goodness.

Hugh Jackman Attacked!

Whit Honea — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:01:00 GMT

The question of attacking Hugh Jackman is not one to be taken lightly. First of all, why would you want to? He seems like a great guy.

Second, there's a very good chance that the Wolverine star could break most of us in half with two fingers. He's buff.

There is only one legit reason to attack Hugh Jackman, and better yet, to get away with it- he's your dad. Get him good, kids.

Christian Bale is Sick of This Guano

Whit Honea — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:34:00 GMT

Christian Bale, everyone's favorite bat daddy, has released a statement regarding his alleged arrest.

In a statement released today:

"Christian Bale attended a London Police station today, on a voluntary basis, in order to assist with an allegation that had been made against him to the police by his mother and sister. Mr Bale who denies the allegation, co-operated throughout, gave his account in full of the events in question, and has left the station without any charge being made against him by the Police.

At this time, there will be no further comment by Mr Bale."

Man, I hate even writing about this. I hope whatever crazy is going on is resolved quickly.

And yes, I know that I've used "guano" in two posts today, but it's really funny to me.

Christian Bale Goes Guano: Arrested for Assault on Family

Whit Honea — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:54:00 GMT

Holy WTF, Batman? I wanted to write that this wasn't true, but apparently it is. Christian Bale was accused of assault after lashing out at his mother and sister while in London. He was taken in for questioning, arrested and then released on bail.

We don't know the extent of the assault. There hasn't been any information available as to the specifics, whether it was an act of violence or if he was just using his gravely Batman voice.

Now, I'm not justifying anything here, but the tabloids have been running stories about the pressures on Bale for a few days, and then he snaps on the people he loves the most. Fairly classic breakdown material, wouldn't you say? Let's hope everyone involved is alright and that Bale gets his shit together.

Christian Bale is the Dark Knight and Daddy

Whit Honea — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 17:05:00 GMT

Did you know that Christian Bale had some movie open this past weekend? Some Superfriends spin-off I hear.

Well, Bale is more than Batman to little Emmaline. He's Daddyman, and that's the kind of hero she needs right now. Sorry, Gotham.

Hancock Premiere: Will, Sean and Tyrese

Whit Honea — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 14:09:00 GMT

Women go crazy about a sharp dressed man- and their sons, of course. Will Smith (in his suit you love to hate) and his son hung out with Sean "P. Diddy/Puff Daddy/Puffy" Combs, his son, and Tyrese at the premiere of Hancock.

Word is that there was swooning in the area.

Marisol Nichols may have to work on some anger issues. She totally destroyed this street in Hollywood.

Oh, wait, no reason to fear for her husband, they're just props.

Iron Man is a Lakers Fan

Whit Honea — Mon, 05 May 2008 20:07:00 GMT

Tony Stark, aka, Iron Man, aka, Robert Downey, Jr., and his son Indio, aka... just Indio, went to a NBA playoff game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Utah Jazz.

It's good to see Downey on top of his game, and judging by his seats, the Lakers' game as well.

BTW, did I mention that Iron Man was awesome?

Robert Downey, Jr., Wants More Iron Babies

Whit Honea — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 20:27:00 GMT

The closer it gets the more excited I am about Iron Man. The movie looks awesome. There was some crap in the L.A. Times on Sunday about Robert Downey, Jr., selling out by taking a superhero role because it's all spandex and fluff. First of all, L.A. Times, Iron Man wears IRON and second of all, if someone thinks that the life of a superhero/secret-identity is fluff then they don't know much about Peter Parker, Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark- these guys have issues.

Yeah, my geek is showing. So what?

Where was I? Oh yeah, Robert Downey, Jr., is ready for more offspring, saying, "I want more children. I also want to travel. I talk about things I want to do a lot."

He has a son, 14-year-old Indio who is apparently quite the musician. Dad's advice? "I said to him that he should call his next album, 'How To Pass Eighth Grade'!"

Spot on. With dad material like that I do believe Downey is ready for round two.

Robert Downey, Jr. and the Heart of Iron Man

Whit Honea — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 16:01:00 GMT

Robert Downey, Jr., (pictured with Iron Man director Jon Favreau and co-star Gwyneth Paltrow) recently gave an interview in Parade during which he shared some of his thoughts on his son and his role as a father: “My son is gifted and artistic and has a great sense of humor, yet he’s a very contemplative guy. That’s good. I don’t want him to be in a hurry to find out who he is.

“I’m a guy who was in such a hurry that I missed the train four or five times. I didn’t understand the importance of the crossroads I found myself at. As a dad, I think that my job is to do the right thing - to prepare him for what is coming in his life.

“I used to be so convinced that happiness was the goal, yet all those years I was chasing after it, I was unhappy in the pursuit. Maybe the goal really should be a life that values honor, duty, good work, friends and family.”

Sounds like Robert finally has it together. Best of luck to him.

Anyone else stoked about Iron Man?

Hugh Jackman: He's Not Heavy, He's My Oscar

Whit Honea — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 20:44:00 GMT

Hugh Jackman's boy Oscar sure is getting big. Luckily for them Hugh, aka Wolverine, has super strength.

He also has some interesting art on his arm. I can't tell if it's a tattoo or something from the set that he hasn't washed off. It could have something to do with his bones being fused with alloy adamantium. I hear that hurt.

Keri Russell Sounds Like Wonder Woman

Whit Honea — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 13:09:00 GMT

Keri Russel's new gig is super, but it doesn't require a personal trainer or a sliver of spandex. She'll be portraying Wonder Woman, but all of her acting will be into a microphone.

The movie will be released straight to DVD, but don't mistake it for a Jessica Simpson vehicle. These new DC movies are pretty cool.

Yeah, I'm a grown man that likes comics, so what?

I know what you've seen in the comics and on Smallville, Superman and Supergirl are cousins. Well, apparently they are kissing cousins behind the scenes and they've got the little piece of kryptonite to prove it.

If I were Supergirl I'd keep an eye on ol' Red there. I know it's called the fortress of solitude but I'm guessing Superman could fit one more in there.

That's some kid. It would appear that her baby got Daddy's looks. Let's hope he also got Dad's moral compass (spider sense?).

Joely Fisher Should Play Wonder Woman

Whit Honea — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 17:27:00 GMT

Joely Fisher considers herself a superhero. The self-proclaimed "wonder wife" explains, “I am a superhero. I bring home the bacon. I put it in the pan. I change the diapers.” Hey, I know that song.

In fact, if that's all you need to be a superhero I'm a regular Green Lantern. Yes, I'm that bad-ass.
