Sally Kirkland
Tuesday, February 28th, 2012
I’ve gotta be honest: when it comes to Sally Kirkland, I knew almost nothing about her. But when it comes to the Academy Awards, I know plenty. And there was a point – in 1987 to be exact – when Ms. Kirkland’s performance in the movie Anna garnered her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress in a Leading Role. In case you didn’t hear me, I said Leading Actress! But circling back around, when it came to that particular movie, I knew virtually nothing either. Read the rest of this entry »
As I entered the heavy metal era wholeheartedly in the late 1980’s, there was one movie that epitomized the metal-headedness of our generation of morons and that was Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. While Keanu Reeves, who portrayed Ted, went on to bigger and maybe-not-so-much-better things, his partner in headbanging time travel, Alex Winter, who was Bill, is now signing autographs at the Chiller Theatre Show in Parsippany, New Jersey, on April 30, 2011. 
I wasn’t all that familiar with Jackie Joseph, but after taking the time to look into her career before I got the chance to meet her, I found that her vocation had taken her all across the dial in film and on television. She was present as part of the Josie and the Pussycats reunion (for which she voiced Melody) at the Hollywood Show on February 12, 2011. I took more interest in her TV appearances in shows such as The Andy Griffith Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Doris Day Show, Gomer Pyle U.S.M.C., The Brady Bunch, and Newhart. 
Quite easy on the eyes, Shannon Elizabeth was a no-brainer as to whether I was going to shell out the cash to get a signed photo and pose for a picture with her (even at $45 for the combo). She may not be Marilyn Monroe, but I for one instantly had her faced burned on my brain after her appearance in the 1999 smash teen comedy American Pie. She’d go on to star in its first sequel American Pie 2 and will be appearing in the upcoming American Reunion as well.
