As much as I couldn’t possibly care less to hear or read about Angelina Jolie’s personal life with Brad Pitt and their dozen or so offspring, I will admit this much: she is nice to look at. If you love movies that are basically 90-minute chase scenes and you also enjoy looking at Angelina Jolie, then this new movie that she stars in, which is called Salt, is your cinematic wet dream. Salt is a movie which is best seen without any beforehand knowledge of the very loose plot, because the more you know the less you will be surprised by a couple of key plot twists, only one of which I saw coming. All you need to know going in is that in Salt, Jolie plays a CIA operative who is accused of being a Russian Spy. Once that scene plays out, it’s all about watching Angelina Jolie jump from one speeding semi to another speeding semi, roundhouse kick dudes in the head, and basically slaughter every other character in the film with anything and everything from machine guns to handcuffs to her bare hands, all the while looking fucking fantastic, even when she is covered in blood. Acting! Salt also stars Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor (hot) as a couple of Salt’s CIA cohorts. I was entertained and, for a free movie screening, that is all that matters. The Worleygig gives Salt Four out of Five Stars.
No one who really knows me would ever accidentally accuse me of being a fan of the band Korn. Being a happy and well-adjusted person who does not really enjoy listening to a lot of screaming (exception: anything by Ministry), their music is not really my bag. But my friend Ray Luzier has been Korn’s drummer for about three years, and it’s been at least that long since I’ve seen Ray, since he lives in LA and I live here in NYC. So, when Korn’s new record label, the great Roadrunner Records, invited me to attend a listening party for the band’s upcoming CD: Korn III: Remember Who You Are(in stores July 13, 2010), and I heard that not only would Ray be there but that also the catering would be provided by Dos Caminos (such delicious food they have) I decided I could not miss this opportunity to make the scene.

With True Blood and Mad Men now running back to back, Sunday night’s TV viewing has just hit an apex of awesomeness not seen since the halcyon days of Six Feet Under and with a Soprano’s chaser! Good times! Is it just me, or are other man lovers out there having a hard time shaking free the mental image of a naked Eric Northman (the blisteringly hot Alexander Skarsgard) cooing and cuddling with SookieStackhouse (Anna Paquin) from last night’s dream sequence? If I were Sookie I’d be all, “Bill Who?” With only three more episodes to go before the end season two, I hope that Eric and Sookie actually get to “do it.” Because that would just be insane.

Just lately I have been enjoying the many fine films of Mexican actor, Gael Garcia Bernal. Not only because he is an excellent actor who’s not afraid to take on a risky, controversial role, but because he is insanely gorgeous and gets naked in many of his movies. I love him. I just watched Amores Perros on IFC last week and despite the horrific dog fighting scenes, and the fact that it’s not exactly what I’d call a “feel good” film, I’d watch it again in two seconds just to see Garcia Bernal’s character, Octavio get it on with his teenage sister-in-law. What a hottie!
