Fifth Element, The (1997)<br />
★★★ / ★★★★</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t know much about this movie when I decided to watch it so my expectations were not that high. I thought it was going to be another one of those science fiction movies that deals with the apocalypse and so happens to take itself way too seriously. I couldn&#8217;t be anymore more wrong because &#8220;The Fifth Element,&#8221; written and directed by Luc Besson, was as funny and interesting as the vibrant colors that could be found in it throughout. Every 5,000 years, a strange power appears and tries to engulf life. It could be stopped by combining the powers of fire, water, wind, earth and the supposed &#8220;fifth element&#8221; for another five thousand years and the cycle continues. Bruce Willis stars as Korben Dallas, a taxi driver in futuristic New York who used to work for the military. He got sucked into the madness of intergalactic battle when Milla Jovovich&#8211;the fifth element, also known as the perfect being&#8211;literally dropped into his taxi. Their mission was to gather all the elements and save the planet from being obliterated into oblivion. Gary Oldman as the evil Zorg, Ian Holm as the priest, and Chris Tucker as the hilariously flamboyant DJ also star. I enjoyed this movie more than I expected to because its pace was quick; it didn&#8217;t dwell on the specifics on who&#8217;s who and what their intentions and motivations are. This film definitely reminded me of a hybrid between the &#8220;Star Wars&#8221; saga and the B movies of the 1950&#8217;s because it had that nice balance of imagination and humor. The only minor complaint I had was that sometimes it managed to distract itself from the story to make room for some of the more obvious funny moments. Tucker was the one who stole most of the scenes he was in because he was able to focus his manic personality into a character that had to be very enthusiastic about everything every time he was on his program. As for the visual and special effects, yes, they are sort of dated but I really didn&#8217;t care because I&#8217;m more concerned about the concept, how well a film builds on the story, and how it utilizes its characters. &#8220;The Fifth Element&#8221; is one of those movies that one can really enjoy if one doesn&#8217;t mind watching something over-the-top on a slow night.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>On Fridays I&#8217;m always reminded of Chris Tucker&#8217;s famous &#8220;Friday&#8221; quote&#8230;<br />

<p>Here are a couple Ottawa videos to get you into ready for the weekend.  First off, Croup with a couple of bangers off of his upcoming release, Crack Moses:</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/ygqC3pBtSyw&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/ygqC3pBtSyw&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2140" title="Mike Epps" src="http://tvtbt.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/mike-epps.jpg" alt="Mike Epps" width="105" height="156" />A few weeks ago, it was revealed that Redman was interested in doing a sequel for his 2001 film, <em>How High</em>. Mike Epps appeared in the first film playing the role of &#8220;Baby Powder.&#8221; Early in his career, Epps made a name for himself playing in comedic roles.</p>
<p>Now that the wheels are turning and another <em>How High</em> movie is in the works, many want to know if Mike Epps would return to his roots. Like many actors before him, Epps is trying to branch out from comedy and into doing regular films. Doing a role like &#8220;Baby Powder&#8221; can lead to Epps being typecasted.</p>
<p>For years, Mike Epps has been known as a comedy actor. Some have been trying to dub Epps as the next Chris Tucker. When SOHH asked Mike Epps about his participation in this new film, he said that he would not be taking part. He did not mean to offend Method Man, or Redman, it is just that he wants to move on to bigger things.</p>
<p>More than anything, Mike Epps wants to begin doing serious movie roles. Epps truly wants respect in the film industry. He said that he is getting to that point in his life where he wants to do more mature roles. Currently, there are not any new films that feature Mike Epps.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Volvemos con nuestra sección de videos con participación de profesionales del cine y de la moda. Hoy]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;">Volvemos con nuestra sección de videos con participación de profesionales del cine y de la moda. Hoy la selección es un monográfico sobre el desaparecido <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.michaeljackson.com/" target="_blank">Michael Jackson</a>. &#8220;El rey del pop&#8221; nos dejó muchos videos en los que ponía una especial dedicación. Algunos eran pequeños cortometrajes, películas sintetizadas en 4 minutos, como el primero de esta serie, <strong>Liberian Girl</strong>. El último single de su álbum <strong>BAD</strong> se promocionó con una filmación en la que aparecen muchos amigos de Hollywood del cantante. la nómina es extensa: <strong>Whoopi Goldberg</strong>, <strong>Danny Glover</strong>, <strong>Carl Weathers</strong>, <strong>Dan Aykroyd</strong>, <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.travolta.com/" target="_blank">John Travolta</a>, <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.steveguttenberg.com/" target="_blank">Steve Guttenberg</a>&#8230;.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/p8h8j-YLF54&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/p8h8j-YLF54&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Uno de los últimos que grabó fue <strong>You Rock My World</strong> en 2001.  Basado en una historia escrita por él mismo y por <strong>Paul Hunter</strong>, podemos ver en pantalla a actores de la talla de <strong>Marlon Brando</strong>, <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.mickeyrourkeonline.com/" target="_blank">Mickey Rourke</a>, <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.michaelmadsen.com/" target="_blank">Michael Madsen</a>, <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.christucker.com/" target="_blank">Chris Tucker</a>, <strong>Billy Drago</strong> y a la actriz y coreógrafa <a title="su myspace" href="http://www.myspace.com/kishayadudley" target="_blank">Kishaya Dudley</a>, que interpreta a la chica que origina toda la trama.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/nxrmJtaZBA0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/nxrmJtaZBA0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1991 <strong>John Landis</strong> (Granujas a todo ritmo, El príncipe de Zamunda) dirigió un de los más famosos de Jacko, <strong>Black or White</strong>. Las &#8220;celebrities&#8221; que hacen acto de presencia son el niño de moda en aquella época por la saga <strong>Sólo en Casa</strong>, <strong>Macaulay Kulkin</strong>, en el papel de padres el bonachón Norm de<strong> </strong>la serie de TV<strong> Cheers</strong> (<strong>George Wendt</strong>) y <strong>Tess Harper</strong>, la modelo <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.tyrabanks.com/" target="_blank">Tyra Banks</a> y la artista musical y actriz <a title="su myspace" href="http://www.myspace.com/summercree" target="_blank">Cree Summer</a>. Como curiosidad decir que en la canción participa tocando la guitarra <strong>Slash</strong> de <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.gunsnroses.com/" target="_blank">Guns &#38; Roses</a>, y que el riff suena parecido al <a title="ver video" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSHGT9bATdc" target="_blank">Hurt So Good</a> de <a title="web oficial" href="http://www.mellencamp.com/" target="_blank">John Cougar Mellencamp</a>.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/NbN6fS2AXRU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/NbN6fS2AXRU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Perteneciente también al disco Dangerous, <strong>In The Closet</strong> se proyectó un año más tarde que Black or White. Como respuesta a las dudas sobre su orientación sexual, Michael escribió este &#8220;Dentro del armario&#8221; en el que hablaba de una relación oculta entre un hombre y una mujer. Para rodar la historia se acompañó de la modelo <strong>Naomi Campbell</strong>, que despliega sus movimientos más sensuales a lo largo del video. Aunque los coros de la canción se acreditaron a una &#8220;Mystery Girl&#8221; luego se supo que fueron obra de la <strong>princesa Estefanía de Mónaco</strong>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Without a doubt, Thriller, was the best work that Michael Jackson ever created. There is no way that]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2754" title="Invincible (album)" src="http://tvtbt.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/invincible-album.jpg" alt="Invincible (album)" width="135" height="135" />Without a doubt, <em>Thriller</em>, was the best work that Michael Jackson ever created. There is no way that he could ever top that album on a creative level. But, commercially, he could have knocked the socks off of his 1982 album.</p>
<p>By 2001, nineteen years after <em>Thriller</em>, Michael Jackson was now looked at as an &#8220;old school&#8221; artist. It had been six years since his last album, so the younger generation knew nothing about him. Always a step ahead of the curve, Michael was ready to re-introduce himself to the game.</p>
<p>Coming into the late 1990s and 2001, when he released <em>Invincible</em>, black music was centered around hip hop. Because of that, Michael Jackson teamed up with many hip hop producers and featured upcoming rappers on the album. His 2001 release was easily his second-best album, better than <em>Off The Wall.</em></p>
<p>Chris Tucker was probably the most popular comedian/actor after the success of <em>Rush Hour 2.</em> One notable scene from the film was Tucker re-enacting Michael Jackson&#8217;s trademark dance. After the film, Jackson called Tucker, saying two words &#8220;wrong leg.&#8221; What came next was a strong friendship. Tucker performed the intro of <em>Invincible</em>&#8217;s lead single, &#8220;You Rock My World.&#8221;</p>
<p>The song received little promotion from Sony, but still managed to become a top five single. For the album, Michael Jackson had big plans of releasing such songs as &#8220;Unbreakable,&#8221; featuring The Notorious B.I.G., &#8220;Break of Dawn,&#8221; &#8220;Whatever Happens,&#8221; and &#8220;Threatened&#8221; as singles.</p>
<p>All of those songs were great and deserved to be singles. &#8220;Unbreakable&#8221; was arguably the best song on the album. The video for that single would have been simply incredible. Although &#8220;Break of Dawn&#8221; was a slow song, the instrumental of the song also set the stage for a creative video featuring Jackson and some video honey.</p>
<p>Had the album received the necessary attention and Jackson&#8217;s label had pushed those singles, things would have been entirely different. &#8220;Whatever Happens&#8221; would have shot to number one on all of the charts. One could only imagine the type of dancing that Michael would have done in the video. &#8220;Threatened&#8221; would have turned the &#8220;new generation&#8221; into true hardcore MJ fans because the song was a 2000s version of &#8220;Thriller.&#8221;</p>
<p>Had Sony been thinking, they would have pushed &#8220;Threatened&#8221; as the next single, after &#8220;You Rock My World.&#8221; With no promotion, <em>Invincible</em> was able to go double platinum. On top of all of that, only one single received notable airplay. Imagine if Sony had pushed these singles, gave them proper videos, and promoted the album.</p>
<p>With the robust economy in 2001, the new generation of music fans, and the nostalgic Michael Jackson fans, the sales of <em>Invincible</em> would have easily trumped that of <em>Thriller</em>. Michael Jackson would have broken his own record and he may have been able to have performed that world tour that was set for this summer.</p>
<p>Maybe if Sony had done right by Michael Jackson with this album, he would have been at ease letting that album be &#8220;It.&#8221; Had that been the case, he would hold the record for the top two selling albums of all time. Michael would have finally broken his record, topping <em>Thriller</em> and he could have finally been satisfied. Had this happened, maybe America would not have received such sad news on June 25, 2009.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>There are few things that I love more than satire &#8212; the more biting, the better. And few things are more capable of being mocked than network television. Network execs are playing to particular tastes, and the expectations of the audiences are narrow. </p>
<p>Therefore, satirical skewerings of television, when done well, make me giggle like a little girl in a tickle fight. A few years ago, satirical newspaper/website <em>The Onion</em> had a feature of made-up television shows on established TV networks, with titles that could easily pass for respective television shows on said network. Because I miss them so much, I&#8217;ll occasionally make one of my own:</p>

<p>These sorts of things amuse me, and I want to share them with y&#8217;all. Also, I&#8217;m easily amused.</p>

<p>Robert Townsend, Keenan Ivory Wayans and Chris Tucker: three of the most talented actors and directors of our time who&#8217;ve given us some of the funniest shows and films in recent years. To name just a few:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Robert Townsend</strong> &#8211; Produced and starred in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093200/">Hollywood Shuffle</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101891/">The Five Heartbeats</a></p>
<p><strong>Keenan Ivory Wayans</strong> &#8211; Produced and starred in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0175142/">Scary Movie 1,2 and 3</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098830/">In Living Color</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095348/">I&#8217;m Gonna Git You Sucka</a></p>
<p><strong>Chris Tucker</strong> &#8211; starred in the <a href="http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&#38;q=rush+hour">Rush Hour</a> franchise, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112819/">Dead Presidents</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&#38;q=friday">Friday</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Also shown in the photo is the legendary <strong><a href="http://www.thevillageunderground.com/bio.php?id=17">Ronald E Grant</a></strong>, Recording Artist/Music Producer of tracks for artists such as <a href="http://www.mariahcarey.com/splash/index.html">Mariah Carey</a> and <a href="http://biggiesmalls.net/">Biggie Smalls</a>.</p>
<p>The list of films, television shows and movies produced by or starred in by Townsend, Tucker or Wayans is far too extensive for me to list in a blog.  But in the gloomy night of well-made but tragic films like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&#38;q=menace+ii+society">Menace II Society</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101507/">Boyz In The Hood</a>, these men helped to usher in a new sunrise of humor that we hadn&#8217;t seen since the days of comedic legends Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby. They brought us a &#8217;smarter&#8217; kind of humor with movies that made us think about how black culture was being portrayed on the large and small screens. And both Townsend and Wayans in particular subtly pointed out the important difference of being <strong><em>laughed with</em></strong><em> </em>and being <strong><em>laughed at </em></strong>when it comes to black comedy.</p>
<p>In addition to breathing fresh air into black comedy, Wayans is also largely responsible for launching the careers of stars such as <a href="http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&#38;q=Jim+carrey">Jim Carrey</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&#38;q=jennifer+lopez">Jennifer Lopez</a>.  Had there been no &#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098830/">In Living Color</a>&#8221; there would have been no &#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098830/">Fly Girls</a>&#8221; or <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098830/">&#8220;Fire Marshall Bill</a>.&#8221; One can argue that the extraordinary talent of <strong>Carrey</strong>, <strong>Lopez</strong>, <strong>Daman Wayans</strong> and many others from the &#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098830/">In Living Color</a>&#8221; ensemble would have been discovered eventually but I argue just as strongly that each of their &#8216;big breaks&#8217; came light years faster because of the show.</p>
<p>There are so, so many men and women who belong on this list &#8212; <a href="http://www.thehistorymakers.com/biography/biography.asp?bioindex=1889&#38;category=EntertainmentMakers">Hudlin Brothers</a>, <a href="http://video.barnesandnoble.com/DVD/Eves-Bayou/Jurnee-Smollett/e/031398822325">Kasi Lemmons</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004886/">Bill Duke</a> &#8211;I can&#8217;t even begin to list the great actors and producers who are responsible for shaping my and many more generations of theatrical fun, so I just decided to start with three.</p>

<description><![CDATA[...yo quinto elemento, ser supremo... Directed: Luc Besson With: Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Ian Holm]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 360px"><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/b8XY80JT2_o2mOgXORmIOw?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_X1rGvXqfY7o/SuNhCln_1DI/AAAAAAAArpg/VeScOoZOLA0/s800/fifthelement.jpg" alt="" width="350" height="524" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">...yo quinto elemento, ser supremo...</p></div>
<p>Directed: Luc Besson<br />
With: Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Ian Holm, Milla Jovovich, Chris Tucker, etc..</p>
<p>Gary Oldman es un maestro, Milla Jovovich sale buenísima, Bruce Willis es el mas duro, a Chris Tucker te dan ganas de ahorcarlo y todo eso mezclado con una pizca de futuro (en realidad futuro a gusto) y una historia de ciencia ficción (con elegido y todo) y con toques de comedia.<br />
Puede que tome tiempo acostumbrarse al humor de la película, pero es entretenimiento puro y sin desperdicios.</p>

<description><![CDATA[. Las estrellas de Hollywood no son siempre tan rutilantes como estamos acostumbrados a verlas. Drog]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;">.<img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2423/3992655812_6c71b39e67.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Las estrellas de Hollywood no son siempre tan rutilantes como estamos acostumbrados a verlas. Drogas, posesión de armas, conducción temeraria, escándalo público, hurto, prostitución, maltratos o elevado índice de alcohol en sangre son algunas de las lindezas que han provocado que <strong>rostros muy famosos acabaran siendo detenidos.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Son tantos y tantas los que han acabado esposados que ha sido necesario realizar una pequeña selección, a menudo condicionada por la falta de testimonio gráfico del arresto en cuestión. De ahí que <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000241/">Jean-Claude Van Damme</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000501/">Ray Liotta</a></strong>, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000576/"><strong>Sean Penn</strong> </a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001667/"><strong>Jonathan Rhys Meyers</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000230/"><strong>Sylvester Stallone</strong></a> o <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000591/">Roman Polanski</a></strong>, entre muchos otros, se hayan librado de aparecer en esta <em>lista negra.</em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>Tiene derecho a guardar en silencio&#8230;</em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">AIDAN QUINN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001644/">Quinn</a> fue arrestado por <strong>conducir borracho</strong>. Dos años después se le declaró culpable, tuvo que pagar 500 dólares de multa y se le retiró el carnet durante tres meses.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">AL PACINO</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1961 y con 21 años <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000199/">Al Pacino </a>fue detenido por estar en <strong>posesión de una pistola</strong> del calibre 38 y cargada. Parece ser que Pacino pasó tres días en el calabozo y que los cargos fueron retirados posteriormente.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">BRAD RENFRO</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Tres fueron las veces que el joven <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000605/">Renfro </a>pasó por la comisaría antes de morir en 2008 a los 25 años de edad.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1998 fue detenido y acusado por <strong>posesión de cocaína y marihuana,</strong> en 2000 por <strong>intentar robar un yate</strong> totalmente drogado y en 2006 cuando quiso <strong>comprar heroína a una policía vestido de paisano</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">CARMEN ELECTRA</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La explosiva <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001182/">Carmen Electra </a>fue detenida en 1999 tras <strong>agredir a su ex marido</strong> el jugador de la NBA <strong>Dennis Rodman</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">CHRISTIAN SLATER</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000225/">Christian Slater</a> también posee un amplio currículum de detenciones. La foto que os mostramos es de diciembre de 1994 cuando fue arrestado en el aeropuerto JFK de Nueva York por <strong>tenencia ilícita de armas</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">CHRIS KLEIN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0005098/">Klein</a>, al que pudimos ver en &#8220;American Pie&#8221; (1999), &#8220;American Pie 2&#8243; (2001), &#8220;Cuando éramos soldados&#8221; (2002) o &#8220;El mundo de Leland&#8221; (2004), fue detenido en 2005 por <strong>conducir borracho</strong>. Parece ser que su tasa de alcohol en sangre duplicaba la permitida en el estado de California, lo que le supuso una multa de 1.800 dólares y la obligación de realizar 150 horas de trabajo comunitario.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">CHRIS TUCKER</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000676/">Chris Tucker</a> que interpretó al histérico y excesivo Ruby Rhod de &#8220;El quinto elemento&#8221; (Luc Besson, 1997)  fue arrestado por <strong>exceso de velocidad</strong> con el agravante de que no se detuvo ante el aviso de los agentes de policía.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3478/3991953509_ceaeeab5c0_m.jpg" alt="" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">DANIEL BALDWIN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La carrera delictiva de <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000838/">Daniel Baldwin</a> (hermano de Alec) es más prolífica que la cinematográfica. En 1998 fue arrestado por <strong>posesión de cocaína</strong> tras haberse paseado desnudo por los pasillos del Hotel Plaza de Nueva York. Después de acumular varios arrestos, fue nuevamente detenido en 2006 acusado de <strong>haber robado un coche</strong>. Aunque posteriormente se demostró que era el vehículo de un amigo, el actor no se libró de pagar una fianza de 20.000 dólares por haber tomado prestado el dichoso coche sin permiso de su colega.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">DAVID BOWIE</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El cantante y actor <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000309/">David Bowie </a>fue arrestado en 1976 por <strong>posesión de marihuana</strong>. El &#8220;Duque Blanco&#8221; se encontraba en un hotel en compañía del también cantante Iggy Pop.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">DENNIS HOPPER</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1975 <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000454/">Hopper</a> sufrió un accidente a consecuencia de su <strong>conducción temeraria</strong>. Posteriormente fue detenido por no informar a las autoridades de dicho accidente, por huir del lugar de los hechos y por resistencia a la autoridad.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">DUDLEY MOORE</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001545/">Dudley Moore</a> (“10, la mujer perfecta”, “Arthur, el soltero de oro”) fue arrestado en 1994 por <strong>violencia de género</strong>, aunque su novia, Nicole Richardson, retiró posteriormente los cargos.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">EDWARD FURLONG</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El John Connor de &#8220;Terminator 2&#8243; (1991) y el Danny Vinyard de &#8220;American History X&#8221; (1998) ha sido otro de esos jóvenes actores que han terminado coqueteando con el alcohol y las drogas. En 2001, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000411/">Furlong</a> pisó la comisaría en dos ocasiones: una por <strong>conducir borracho</strong> y otra por hacerlo <strong>sin el permiso reglamentario</strong>. Este año 2009 su mujer, la actriz Rachel Kneeland, lo ha acusado de <strong>agresión y amenazas</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">ERIC ROBERTS</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000616/">Eric Roberts</a> (hermano de Julia) también fue un habitual &#8220;visitante&#8221; de las comisarías. En 1987 fue arrestado por <strong>posesión de cocaína y marihuana</strong> y por <strong>resistirse a la autoridad</strong>. La <strong>violencia de género</strong> fue el otro delito por el que se le detuvo en 1995.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">FATTY ARBUCKLE</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La estrella de cine mudo <a href="http://cinefagos.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/los-grandes-del-cine-comico-mudo-iv-roscoe-fatty-arbuckle/"><strong>Fatty Arbuckle</strong> </a>fue detenido en 1921 como <strong>presunto autor de la</strong> <strong>muerte</strong> de la actriz Virginia Rappe. Tras una fiesta en un hotel a la que la joven estaba invitada, comenzó a sentirse mal y murió tres días después de una peritonitis. Una amiga de Rappe y la prensa sensacionalista de la época acusaron falsamente a Arbuckle de ser el causante del fallecimiento por haber violado a la joven con una botella. Aunque fue absuelto, su carrera cinematográfica quedó totalmente arruinada.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">FRANK SINATRA</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El arresto de <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000069/">Frank Sinatra </a>no deja ser de lo más curioso. Corría el año 1938 y se le detuvo por (parece ser) <strong>haber mantenido una relación con una mujer casada</strong>. Cómo cambian los tiempos…</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">GARY DOURDAN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El famoso Warrick Brown de la serie televisiva “C.S.I.” fue detenido cuando pernoctaba en su coche y en el cual se encontró heroína, cocaína, éxtasis y varios tipos de fármacos. Tras pagar una fianza de 5.000 dólares, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0235427/">Dourdan</a> fue puesto en libertad acusado de <strong>posesión de narcóticos</strong>. El careto de su ficha policial lo dice todo.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">En 2006 el director estadounidense <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001814/">Gus van Sant</a> sufrió un arresto por <strong>conducir borracho</strong>.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">HALEY JOEL OSMENT</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El niño que en ocasiones veía muertos a punto estuvo de convertirse en uno de ellos siendo ya mayorcito. Tras estrellar el coche que conducía cerca de su casa, los policías que acudieron al lugar del accidente comprobaron que <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0005286/">Osment</a> no sólo iba<strong> borracho</strong>, sino que hallaron que estaba en <strong>posesión de marihuana</strong>. En estos momentos es imposible no acordarse de aquel visionario e hilarante vídeo de los de <em>“El informal”.</em></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">HEATHER LOCKLEAR</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La Sammy Jo de “Dinastía” y la Amanda de “Melrose Place” fue arrestada en 2008 por <strong>conducir borracha</strong> y con alguna que otra sustancia más en su cuerpo. Aunque se difundió que todo había sido una trampa de una ex empleada de la actriz, el asunto nunca llegó a aclararse. Qué pena que <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000181/">Heather </a>no tuviera tiempo de ir a la peluquería antes de que la fotografiaran para rellenar su ficha policial.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">JASON PATRICK</span></strong></p>

Aunque la oficina del fiscal retiró los cargos, el jurado federal falló a favor del agente.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">La reivindicativa <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000404/">Jane Fonda</a> fue arrestada en 1970 en el Aeropuerto Internacional Hopkins de Cleveland. No sólo <strong>golpeó a uno de los oficiales de la aduana</strong>, sino que en su equipaje se encontraron píldoras de vitaminas y Valium por lo que se le imputó un cargo de <strong>tráfico de drogas</strong>. Lo absurdo de la acusación se resolvió con un <strong>sobreseimiento de los cargos</strong> cuando se demostró que esas sustancias eran completamente legales.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">En comparación con sus otros colegas de profesión, lo de <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000496/">Lewis</a> es una simple anécdota: fue detenida por<strong> hallarse en un club nocturno para mayores de edad</strong> cuando la actriz sólo tenía 16 años.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000662/">Kiefer Sutherland</a>, el agente Bauer de la serie televisiva “24”, pasó 48 horas en el calabozo por <strong>conducir con unas copichuelas de más</strong> lo que le llevó a realizar un cambio de sentido prohibido (estos yanquis fliparían con los vídeos de la DGT).

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">LINDSAY LOHAN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La díscola actriz ha sufrido dos arrestos en 2009. En mayo se la detuvo por <strong>conducir borracha</strong> (estrelló su deportivo contra un seto) y decidió ingresar en una clínica de desintoxicación de la que salió el 5 de octubre pasado. Tres días después <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0517820/">Lohan</a> volvía a ser detenida por conducir, nuevamente, bajo los efectos del alcohol y por encontrarse <strong>restos de cocaína en su bolsillo</strong>. Por más que la amiguísima de Paris Hilton ha declarado que la droga no era suya, ha tenido que desembolsar 30.000 dólares de fianza y deberá comparecer ante el juez.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">MACAULAY CULKIN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Uno de esos niños prodigio que no ha sabido crecer en condiciones. En 2004 <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000346/">Culkin</a> fue arrestado por <strong>posesión de drogas</strong> y quedó en libertad tras pagar una fianza de 6.000 dólares. Atención a su cara de empanado.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">MARTIN SHEEN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Parece ser que <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000640/">Martin Sheen</a>, activista declarado, ha sido detenido más de 60 veces por <strong>participar en manifestaciones</strong> (no autorizadas) de distinta índole. Como no tenemos espacio para incluir 60 fotos, ahí os dejamos éstas dos como muestra.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">MATT DILLON</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El actor fue detenido en 2008 por<strong> exceso de velocidad</strong>. No deja de ser paradójico que <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000369/">Dillon</a> fuese nominado al Globo de oro y al Oscar al Mejor Actor Secundario por la película “Crash” (Paul Haggis, 2005)…</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1999 <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000190/">McConaughey</a> decidió <strong>darse unos bailoteos por su barrio completamente desnudo</strong>. Al parecer el actor había fumado marihuana (hecho que no pudo ser demostrado, aunque su careto en la foto casi no deja lugar a dudas) y se le arrestó. Tras pagar una fianza de 1.000 dólares, fue puesto en libertad.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">El actor-director se ganó una sonora detención (segunda) en 2006 por <strong>conducir borracho</strong> por una autopista de Malibú. Durante su arresto se comportó de forma violenta e insultante (“<em>los</em> <em>judíos son los responsables de todas las guerras en el mundo”</em>)<em>. </em>Después de desembolsar los 5.000 dólares de la fianza y quedar en libertad, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000154/">Gibson </a>comenzó a recibir ayuda de Alcohólicos Anónimos.</p>

Pues se trata del actor estadounidense <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001642/">Randy Quaid</a></strong>, hemano del también actor <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000598/">Dennis Quaid</a></strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Randy y su esposa Evi fueron detenidos el pasado mes de septiembre de 2009 acusados de <strong>estafa</strong> por no haber pagado la cuenta de un hotel de Santa Barbara que ascendía a 10.000 dólares. Después de  abonar la fianza, fueron puestos en libertad.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">RIP TORN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">¿Que quién es este tío con esta pinta tan horrible? Para que os situéis rápidamente <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001800/">Rip Torn</a> es el actor que interpretó a Z en la película &#8220;Men in Black&#8221; (1997) y en su secuela &#8220;Men in Black 2&#8243; (2002). Aquí el amigo fue detenido en 2004 por <strong>conducir borracho</strong> y volvió a pasar por la comisaría en 2006 tras protagonizar un accidente con su automóvil. Al negarse a someterse a la prueba de alcoholemia, se le acusó de ir ebrio.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3491/3992728408_2f1740950c_m.jpg" alt="" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">RYAN O’NEAL</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Durante una investigación que tenía como objetivo a Redmond O’Neal (hijo de <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0642302/">Ryan</a> y <span style="color:#0000ff;">Farrah Fawcett</span>), la policía registró la casa del actor encontrando metanfetamina. Ambos fueron arrestados por <strong>posesión de drogas</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3061/3992737054_1a561485ab_m.jpg" alt="" width="133" height="203" /></span> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3214/3992737052_4d976c1761_m.jpg" alt="" width="136" height="203" /> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2517/3992737050_e045ffe36a_m.jpg" alt="" width="145" height="202" /></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">ROBERT DOWNEY JR.</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">Desde finales de la década de los 80, el actor sucumbió a las drogas y al alcohol. Ya en 1980 asistió por primera vez a un centro de rehabilitación que abandonó al poco tiempo sin obtener ningún resultado.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">En 1996 fue arrestado en Los Ángeles por <strong>exceso de velocidad; por posesión de marihuana, cocaína, heroína y crack; y por encontrársele una pistola descargada</strong>. Fue puesto en libertad condicional tras pagar una fianza, pero antes de ser citado a juicio por esos cargos, fue nuevamente detenido, al <strong>entrar por error en casa de su vecina. Había consumido tanto alcohol y droga</strong>, que necesitó de asistencia sanitaria para recobrar el conocimiento.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">Fue enviado a un centro de rehabilitación mientras estaba a la espera de juicio, pero tan solo cuatro días después, fue detenido por los agentes de seguridad del lugar unas horas después de <strong>fugarse</strong>.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">En 2000 fue arrestado nuevamente por <strong>fumar crack y beber alcohol</strong> y en 2001 por <strong>vagar por las calles bajo los efectos de varios narcóticos</strong>.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">Parece ser que desde 2002 <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000375/">Downey Jr.</a> ha logrado mantenerse “limpio” y alejado de las cárceles.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></span></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">RUSSELL CROWE</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El actor australiano no se caracteriza precisamente por su paciencia. En 2005 fue arrestado en un hotel de Nueva York después de <strong>lanzarle un teléfono a un conserje</strong>. Parece ser que <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000128/">Crowe</a> se puso nervioso porque no podía comunicarse con su mujer en Australia.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2646/3992714856_4ff20d77e3_m.jpg" alt="" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">SAM SHEPARD</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El actor (“París, Texas”; “Magnolias de acero”; “El informe pelícano”; ”Black Hawk derribado”; entre otras) y dramaturgo fue detenido por <strong>conducir borracho y por exceso de velocidad</strong>. <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001731/">Shepard</a> fue puesto en libertad tras pagar una multa de 600 dólares y las costas del juicio y prometer que no volvería a reincidir.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">SHIA LaBEOUF</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0479471/">LaBeouf</a> fue detenido por <strong>conducir borracho</strong> después de chocar contra otro vehículo. A causa de este accidente se retrasó el rodaje de “Transformers 2” (2009).</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">STEVE McQUEEN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El inolvidable actor de “Los siete magníficos” (1960), “La gran evasión” (1963), “Bullitt” (1968), “La huida” (1972), “Papillon” (1973) o “El coloso en llamas” (1974)  fue detenido en 1972 por <strong>conducir ebrio</strong>. No se puede negar que a <a href="http://cinefagos.wordpress.com/2008/06/11/steve-mcqueen/">Steve</a> se le ve la mar de “contento”…</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">TIM ALLEN</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Antes de iniciar su carrera cinematográfica, <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000741/">Tim Allen </a>fue arrestado en 1978 en el aeropuerto de Kalamazoo (Michigan) acusado de <strong>vender de drogas</strong> y en 1979 por <strong>posesión</strong>. Volvió a ser detenido en 1997 por <strong>conducir borracho y por exceso de velocidad</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3448/3992730450_f3ddde4601_m.jpg" alt="" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">VINCE VAUGHN</span></strong></p>
<p>En 2001 <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000681/">Vaughn</a> fue arrestado por <strong>participar en una pelea</strong> multitudinaria a la salida de un bar.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3483/4032571545_015d570bdf_m.jpg" alt="" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WESLEY SNIPES</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 2006 <strong><a href="http://www.imdb.es/find?s=all&#38;q=wesley+snipes">Wesley Snipes </a></strong>fue detenido en el aeropuesto de Orlando por <strong>evasión de impuestos</strong>. Parece ser que el actor le debía al fisco unos míseros 12 millones de dólares&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WINONA RYDER</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La cleptómana actriz también ha caído en las redes de la policía por <strong>robar </strong>en unos grandes almacenes. En la foto podemos observar a <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000213/">Winona</a> durante el juicio en la que fue procesada.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WOODY HARRELSON</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1982 el actor fue arrestado por <strong>desorden público</strong>. Parece ser que a <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000437/">Harrelson</a> le dio por pegarse unos bailoteos en medio de la calle entorpeciendo el tráfico. No sólo se resistió a la detención, sino que incluso se escapó del coche de policía que le trasladaba a la comisaría.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3483/3992716136_1b169f6f0f_m.jpg" alt="" /></span> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2565/3992750126_22ca0d87fd_m.jpg" alt="" /></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">YASMINE BLEETH</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La actriz <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0000109/">Yasmine Bleeth</a>, conocida por participar en la serie televisiva &#8221;Los Vigilantes de la Playa&#8221;, fue detenida en 2001 por <strong>posesión de cocaína</strong>. Tras declararse culpable, se la sentenció a dos años de libertad condicional y a 100 horas de servicios comunitarios.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2626/3889064975_3642e24dea.jpg" alt="3331202851_d1e324585b por ti." width="462" height="14" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">ZSA ZSA GABOR</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En 1989 la actriz fue detenida no sólo por conducir su coche con el <strong>carnet de conducir caducado</strong>, sino por <strong>soltarle una bofetada al agente</strong> que le había dado el alto. Curiosamente la <a href="http://www.imdb.es/name/nm0001248/">Gabor</a> también pasó por la comisaría cuando en Palma de Mallorca <strong>se marchó de un local sin pagar la cuenta</strong>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1898" title="Avatar" src="http://nochedecine.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/1179177563_avatar1.jpg?w=202" alt="Avatar" width="202" height="300" />Por <strong>Quique Sanchís</strong></p>
<p>Continuemos con <a href="http://nochedecine.wordpress.com/2009/09/15/viaje-en-el-tiempo-de-la-ciencia-ficcion-parte-1/" target="_blank">nuestro viaje fantástico sobre la ciencia ficción de hace algunas semanas</a>, que os recuerdo, concluyó con la presentación en el final de la década de los 80 de dos robots tan dispares como exitosos: <a href="http://robocoparchive.com/" target="_blank">Robocop</a> (“ejem”) y el gran Terminator.</p>
<p>La década de los 90 significó el renacer de los efectos especiales de gran calidad y el bombazo de las empresas dedicadas a ellos, lo que supuso la gran comercialidad y espectacularidad de algunos de los filmes que se generaron.</p>
<p>A pesar de que pequeñas joyas nada comerciales se colaron en nuestros cines, como el caso de <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119177/" target="_blank">Gattaca</a></em> (1997), un thriller sobre la manipulación genética sin apenas efectos que tristemente no despertó mucho fervor en taquilla pero que debería ser repasado por los amantes del género y resituarla en el lugar que se merece, las mas recordadas de esta década son aquellas que generaron mas “dinerito” en taquilla. Tal es el caso de <em><a href="http://www.jurassicpark.com/maingate_flash.html" target="_blank">Jurassic Park</a></em> (1993), buena adaptación de la novela de <a href="http://www.crichton-official.com/" target="_blank">Michael Crichton</a>, mucho más técnica que la propia película, y que generó otras dos secuelas de “más de lo mismo” absolutamente olvidables; o la irrisoria “americanada” (pero con la que un servidor se lo pasó genial) llamada <em><a href="http://www.imdb.es/title/tt0116629/" target="_blank">Independence Day</a></em> (1998), que supuso la confirmación del estrellato de un tal <a href="http://www.willsmith.com/" target="_blank">Will Smith</a>.</p>
<p><!--more-->Mención especial en esta época merecen dos películas, tan taquilleras como diferentes.</p>
<p>Tener como protagonista a <a href="http://brucewillispl.com/" target="_blank">Bruce Willis</a> por aquel entonces significaba un éxito casi seguro, pero si además se incluye una belleza como <a href="http://www.millaj.com/" target="_blank">Milla Jovovich</a> y se añade un personaje absolutamente tronchante interpretado por un tal <a href="http://www.millaj.com/" target="_blank">Chris Tucker</a> (lástima que luego nos diéramos cuenta que a todos sus personajes los interpretaba igual) dieron como resultado en la cabeza de <a href="http://www.luc-besson.com/" target="_blank">Luc Besson</a> una película tan comercial como simple, pero francamente entretenida y cargada de imaginación que fue <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119116/" target="_blank">El quinto elemento</a></em>, que arrasó en las taquillas de todo el mundo.</p>
<p>La otra era mucho más compleja, con una trama de realidad virtual, guerra humano-máquinas y unos efectos especiales espectaculares e innovadores que surgió de la retorcida mente de unos hermanos llamados <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermanos_Wachowski" target="_blank">Wachowski</a>. <em><a href="http://whatisthematrix.warnerbros.com/" target="_blank">The Matrix</a></em> (1999), con <a href="http://keanu-reeves.net/" target="_blank">Keanu Reeves</a> a la cabeza, hizo que todo el planeta reconsiderase la posibilidad de estar viviendo una existencia que no era la “real” y, sobre todo, intentar emular  el efecto “bullet time” con el que <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_(Matrix)" target="_blank">Neo</a> evitaba las balas de los agentes de Matrix. Ni lo uno ni lo otro acabó bien, je je. Desgraciadamente, la película no tenía un final cerrado y eso degeneró en otras dos películas que, personalmente, acabaron por hundir hasta el subsuelo el gran efecto que generó la primera.</p>
<p>La entrada en el siglo XXI ha supuesto la consolidación de los efectos especiales como esencia obligada para que una película de ciencia ficción triunfe en taquilla, pero también el nacimiento de un abanico inacabable de posibilidades para el género: desde la fantasía maravillosa de <a href="http://www.sociedadtolkien.org/" target="_blank">Tolkien</a> hecha imagen por <a href="http://http://thebastards.info/" target="_blank">Peter Jackson</a> en su trilogía de <em><a href="http://www.elsenordelosanillos.aurum.es/" target="_blank">El señor de los anillos</a></em> (gracias, gracias, gracias), hasta la explotación con irregulares consecuencias de los superhéroes <a href="http://marvel.com/" target="_blank">Marvel</a> y <a href="http://www.dccomics.com/dccomics/" target="_blank">DC</a>, pasando por los intentos de <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Spielberg" target="_blank">Spielberg</a> de hacer historia con <em><a href="http://www.labutaca.net/films/11/minorityreport.htm" target="_blank">Minority Report</a></em> o <em><a href="http://www.labutaca.net/films/5/ai.htm" target="_blank">Inteligencia Artificial</a></em>, tan fallidos como vacíos. También se ha demostrado la falta de ideas que sigue viviendo Hollywood empeñado en el renacer de éxitos pasados: <em><a href="http://www.starwars.com/" target="_blank">Star Wars</a></em>, <em><a href="http://http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/index.html" target="_blank">Star Trek</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.transformersmovie.com/intl/es/" target="_blank">Transformers</a></em>… aunque su buen resultado en taquilla parece darles la razón.</p>
<p>Y luego, por fin, llegamos a esas pequeñas joyas que siguen haciendo del cine de ciencia ficción un género que sorprende y atrapa, sin tanta necesidad de que los efectos sean los protagonistas, si no basados en una buena historia que contar, y además, bien contada. Aquí entrarían maravillas como la misma <em><a href="http://www.disney.es/FilmesDisney/Wall-E/" target="_blank">Wall-E</a></em> (vale, sí, es una película por ordenador, es un efecto toda ella, pero es tan increíble que merece una mención especial), <em><a href="http://www.d-9.com/" target="_blank">Distrito 9</a></em>, que daba pie a este viaje, y la reciente ganadora del <a href="http://sitgesfilmfestival.com/cas/" target="_blank">Festival de Sitges</a>, <em><a href="http://www.sonypictures.com/classics/moon/" target="_blank">Moon</a></em>.</p>
<p>Como se ve, el género sigue vivo y creando expectación y controversia, regalándonos grandes joyas en forma de pequeños filmes o grandes truños en forma de grandes superproducciones… Y este año aún nos falta el <em><a href="http://www2.avatarmovie.com/" target="_blank">Avatar</a></em> de <em><a href="http://www.amazingcameron.com/" target="_blank">Cameron</a></em>… ¿en qué lugar la situaremos? La respuesta,  el  18 de diciembre en los cines de todo el mundo.</p>
<p>Gracias por la compañía y hasta la próxima.</p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#cc00ff;">So apparently Mr. West is planning on going to a Hindu ashram in Pondicherry, India. I guess he feels that a  little yoga should do him some good to release all the negative energy he&#8217;s built up. I mean does he need to go into hiding for a bit? Yeah I think so but personally all he really needs to do is sit in a corner and keep his mouth closed for a week straight. Ha! I mean don&#8217;t get me wrong I thoroughly enjoy Kanye&#8217;s music but he does tend to be an asshole and part of me is like &#8220;yeah man!&#8221; cause I tend to be one myself but even I have a line that&#8217;s drawn. But for somebody like Kanye he&#8217;s crossed and  redrawn many lines. The real question is will he REALLY change? Or will he quote a few buddhists proverbs, do a few yoga tricks, and maybe even produce a bollywood movie before he eventually comes back to the U.S. and crash a few more stages or make outrageous comments on award shows and mixtapes? Who knows! But I can honestly say I can&#8217;t wait to see what happens! Namaste Mr. West&#8230;.Namaste&#8230;</span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Mr. Miller,</p>
<p>Trucking is so easy! Eddie was telling me about all these rules that truckers have to follow like you can&#8217;t drive for more than 14 hours. Pssh, that&#8217;s it? My friends and I have played Halo for WAY longer than that. Just give me a couple cans of Mountain Dew and I could be the greatest truck driver in the world! Sure, I haven&#8217;t done any driving <em>per se</em>, but I&#8217;ve watched Eddie long enough to know the basics: Press your feet down, jiggle the Slammy-Rod till you go fast, and look like the most miserable man on earth (Eddie does this step perfectly). I&#8217;m sure that I&#8217;ll be a natural in no time.</p>
<p>Last night we checked into a hotel in Witchita, Kansas and we couldn&#8217;t find any good arcades so Eddie decided that we were going to stay in and watch <em>Roadgames</em>, which is some movie about trucking. Is this the only thing that Eddie thinks about? I mean, it&#8217;s great that he loves his career and all but why doesn&#8217;t he relax with something a bit more light-hearted? Maybe a flick whose main theme is the power of friendship between two heterosexual males.<em> Rush Hour</em> is the first film that comes to mind.</p>
<p>The only two things that kept me from throwing a full-fledged temper tantrum were the mom from <em>Freaky Friday</em> being in it and the <strong>very</strong> vague hint of this being a light-hearted buddy flick. I mean, there were two people who spent a decent amount of time together and some of the time they were smiling but THAT&#8217;S IT! BOOOORIIIIIING.</p>
<p>Eddie and I are a good team, Mr. Miller, don&#8217;t get me wrong. We just come from two different worlds so it&#8217;s tough for us to see eye-to-eye. I&#8217;m Jackie Chan and he&#8217;s the blue collar, wise-crackin&#8217; Chris Tucker type. In the end all of our trials and tribulations will bring us closer until we become BEST FRIENDS!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m taking us on a detour.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll write you soon.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2154" style="margin:10px;" title="Rush Hour - Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan" src="http://myfutureinfocus.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/rushhour31.gif?w=300" alt="Rush Hour - Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan" width="300" height="193" />Do you remember the movie, Rush Hour, with Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan? The funniest line in that movie is when Chris Tucker looked at Jackie Chan and said &#8221;DO YOU HEAR THE WORDS THAT ARE COMING OUT OF MY MOUTH?&#8221;  That line is timeless. In fact, I&#8217;ve wanted to ask a couple of people that question in the last few days. And unless they were deaf, their answer would be &#8220;YES!&#8221;</p>
<p>Hearing and listening are two different things. When you hear something, it can go in one ear and out the other. But listening requires thought. Listening is a full body experience involving your ears and eyes, heart and soul often times causing you to read between the lines.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re in professional sales or people seek you out as a sounding board, chances are you&#8217;re a pretty good listener. These are some tactics that I use to improve my ability to listen.</p>
<ol>
<li>Pay attention to what they say (verbals)</li>
<li>Pay attention to what they don&#8217;t say (non-verbals).</li>
<li>Decipher what they really mean.</li>
<li>Make eye contact.</li>
<li>Put yourself in their shoes. </li>
<li>Use phrases like &#8220;I understand how you feel&#8221;</li>
<li>Keep an open mind.</li>
<li>Let go of stereotypes and preconceived notions. </li>
<li>Respect what they have to say.</li>
<li>Offer an alternate point of view.</li>
<li>Paint a picture for them of the way you see things.</li>
<li>Overlap with some things they&#8217;ve already told you.</li>
</ol>
<p>When listening, my goal is to keep the lines of communication open. So I try to avoid anything that will makes people shut down. Here is a short list of things I stay away from:</p>
<ul>
<li>Cutting across a person while they&#8217;re talking.</li>
<li>Rushing them when they are trying to think about what to say.</li>
<li>Unwelcoming facial expressions.</li>
<li>Starting my point of view with &#8220;but&#8221;.</li>
</ul>
<p>Above all, I avoid responding in anger to an angry person. Anger is just a surface emotion. And the point of listening is to decipher what lies beneath the surface.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Your life will never be as bad as <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1001562/">this movie</a>.  And you can be happy about that.  Unfortunately, your life will never be as awesome as <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119116/">this movie</a>.  Which sucks, but it&#8217;s reality.  Neither do you have the tragedy of living near or having to talk with Larry the Cable Guy.  Nor, on the other hand, can you be as good looking as Bruce Willis or Milla Jovovich while living a life of fantasy in the near non-existent future where aliens exist (and apparently look like armadillos) and Chris Tucker is&#8230;Chris Tucker. I&#8217;m not sure where I was going with that.  I could have gone a lot of places with that.  None of them would have been good places, though.  Regardless&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="alignright" title="The Fifth Element" src="http://www.homevideos.com/movies-covers/The%20Fifth%20Element.jpg" alt="" width="172" height="189" />Anyways, to get to the point.  I constantly compare my life to the movies I watch.  I lament the fact that my life will never (A) be as interesting or (B) successful as The Lives of Others, and sometimes  wish Danny Kaye would Court Jester his way into my world just once.   Ever since moving to Philadelphia, and probably because I ride my bicycle everywhere (primarily because  I&#8217;m too cheap to buy a car, and in no way does my concern for the environment dictate my decision but it is nice that it is a benefit) with my iPod headphones in, I have had the insane hope that one, as I am riding home from work, two rival gangs will bust out into choreographed dance/fighting a la <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8R9GiLImSw">West Side Story</a>, or maybe even a little basketball choreography&#8230;whatever gets the youth off the streets these days.  By the way, I did not know that movie won 10 Oscars.  Since Return of the King, Ben Hur, and Titanic are the big 11 Oscar winners they seem to get all the attention, but 10 Oscars is a darn impressive feat.  And until rewatching that YouTube clip, had never noticed that Bernardo wore Converse All-Stars.  That&#8217;s just classy.  Or maybe everyone wore Converse All-Stars in the &#8217;60s and I&#8217;m just a little young to know or understand.  Either way, classy.  I stand by my opinion.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="West Side Story" src="http://www.iproceed.com/images/west-side-story.jpg" alt="" width="71" height="103" />(Ever since writing this, I&#8217;m going to start pushing the theater department at our school to do West Side Story as the spring musical.  This year they decided to do The Wiz.  I&#8217;m ambivalent.  The Wiz is apparently done every year at one of the middle schools in Philadelphia.  I have a feeling it&#8217;s overdone in urban areas.  Personal opinion.  Although I have to give the theater department props for doing The Outsiders and moving the play from the middle of nowhere middle America in the &#8217;60s to New York City in the late &#8217;80s.  They&#8217;re good.)</p>
<p>I am constantly wishing the movies I watch pop up in my own life.  In case you hadn&#8217;t clued in yet, this is the MOVIES AS ESCAPISM philosophy.  This is what I believe.  This is why I particularly hate watching documentaries.  I don&#8217;t like the world enough as it is, do I have to watch it all over again when I get home?  (NOTE:  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkbJWZvBVvk">This movie</a> is a rare exception to the documentary rule.  Moving on&#8230;)  Watching Hoop Dreams was painful.  Crumb?  Just unnecessary.</p>
<p>This is why I&#8217;m not convinced by District 9.  It&#8217;s a little to preoccupied with NOT allowing the audience member to hopefully ignore the fact that it is really about apartheid to allow the audience member to watch the movie without thinking.  I like movies that make you think.  I don&#8217;t like movies that do the thinking for you.  This is also why (but for a slightly different reason) I will never like the National Treasure movies.  The National Treasure movies, unlike District 9, just tell you the answer.  District 9, instead, hammers the obvious into you with a mallet.  Neither is very comfortable or easy to watch.</p>
<p>Clarification: Watching movies about the harsh realities of life is OK.  I don&#8217;t know why, but it is.  Watching Year of the Quiet Sun was much nicer than any factual movie I have watched about Europe post World War II.  It isn&#8217;t a happy movie.  It isn&#8217;t an altogether kind movie.  But because I know it is fiction, maybe it is easier for me to stomach and accept, because I know it isn&#8217;t reality.   The movie doesn&#8217;t have to be harsh to be hated.  It just has to be real.  Movies, to me, weren&#8217;t made to show the world.  They were meant to, at the most, mirror the world, echo the world, re-represent the world, meant to capture our shadows on the cave, not to show our true faces.</p>
<p>This brings be to the review of the article (a personal favorite): <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0448134/">Sunshine </a>(I&#8217;ll get to Solaris another day.)</p>
<p>I know this is really late.  I know this is two years late.  I&#8217;m going to start actually writing about modern and relevant movies when work allows me the time to go out to the movie theater and see relevant movies.  Until then, I&#8217;ll review old favorites.</p>

<p>This movie I think is quite wonderful.  I think it is quite wonderful because it was probably a movie made precisely for me.  <a href="http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070719/REVIEWS/70702003">Ebert got it right when he said the movie was made for nerds.</a> But, it&#8217;s more than a movie for nerds.  It&#8217;s a classic movie in that it devotes nothing new to the entire subgenre of movies where a crew of people go into outer space, get on each other&#8217;s nerves, and grapple with the fact that they&#8217;re on a suicide mission all while trying to be both psychological and vaguely sexy.  It doesn&#8217;t add anything new because the genre exists solely for B-grade movies.  (The exception is Solaris almost exclusively.  I don&#8217;t like Alien or Aliens.  I&#8217;ll explain that one later too, I promise.)  I&#8217;m pretty sure this movie does not try to be anything more than the best it knows it can be&#8211;a B-grade movie.  This is why Ebert will give it a 3/4.   Because that&#8217;s all it should deserve.</p>
<p>Fortunately, it is more than that.  It is part Science Fiction, part horror, part drama, part diatribe.  It&#8217;s like an all style and no substance movie with a little bit a substance.  Not much, but just enough to be entertaining.  I won&#8217;t bother with the plot because the plot doesn&#8217;t really matter very much.   You&#8217;ve seen it before.  Until a certain moment in the film.  Then it switches genre with one fail swoop and moves into another type of movie you&#8217;ve also seen before.  It&#8217;s interesting to manage and understand the switch.  It&#8217;s not <em>that </em>interesting.  But it is interesting.  What&#8217;s more interesting are the visuals, which will always win me over storyline, although the storyline isn&#8217;t terrible.  It&#8217;s a joy to watch, the visuals will win any viewer over.</p>
<p>This, I admit is my major downfall as a moviewatcher.  Oftentimes I&#8217;m willing to allow my obsession with great visuals overtake my practical sense of plot, pacing, and acting, none of which is lacking in Sunshine.  Did I mention this is one of my favorite films.  I&#8217;m not sure why I&#8217;m trying to make it sound so bad.  It&#8217;s not.  It&#8217;s actually really good.  Give it a chance.  Put it on your Netflix queue.  I doubt you&#8217;ll be sorry.</p>
<p>If you are, let me know, and let me know why.  Like my students who all seem to think an opinion ends with yes or no, I will always respond in the same way: an opinion is no good without a valid reason.  Give evidence!  That&#8217;s usually when I start raving around the classroom like a lunatic screaming incoherently about the value of justification and evidence.  That&#8217;s when all my students stop listening.  Which is fine.  Everything is still fine.</p>
