Sytycd...

Sorry I haven't been blogging. Been uber busy. Still am. Just a few words: Sytycd this season is pretty good. Cant top 2 or 4. Yet. This week's episode was good. I love Mollee and Nathan. So cute. I loved both of their pieces.

I also loved the routine by Ashleigh and hmmm, I forgot his name. It was such a romantic Viennese Waltz.

Karen and Kevin's dance was very ... "smart" as Adam said. Pretty good, I guess. If a bit much on the schtupping.
No joke. "Transformative power." That was amazing. Legacy and Kathryne. That was so amazing. I loved it. The lines were so amazing. It was awesome.

I really liked it. The tango with Ellenore and Ryan. I loved it. So strong and so beautiful.

Goodbye to Philip and Bianca.

Okay, back to studying.

Rufus Getting Married, Lois and Clark

It's finally happening and it makes me so ooey gooey inside. I love Clark and Lois, Lois and Clark and they're finally doing it. They're finally fighting crime together. I look forward to watching the latest episode when I get a chance.

Gossip girl looks amazing for next week. So much drama. All I know is that I hate Georgina. She wants Dan so bad.

Rufus getting married

Enough About Eve

Lights, Camera, Sew! Plus Chocolate

I loved today's episode! The whole idea and theme was genius. The designers had too create costume looks for different genres of movie. They chose from film noire, period piece, western, science fiction, adventure/action. If I designed, I would pick period piece. I could do soo much with it. Some of the designers had amazing pieces. My favorite was Christopher's. I love him as a designer, he's so strong and is usually top 3. The makeup for the winning design, Nicholas', was genius though. I also loved Epherson's piece. So elegant. Jordana's flapper wasn't all bad. On Models of the runway, Fatma was sent home. The designers had to switch models and with just her and Koji left, and the designer being Louise, Koji had to be picked. Ah well. All the girls seem to have the hots for Logan, which is soo incredibly funny. He's so thin but has a very pleasant face.

I just heard and saw this shop on Unwrapped. Naked Chocolate Cafe. If I'm ever in the area of Philly, I must go there. It's any chocolate lover's paradise. Rave reviews too.

My guilty pleasure fashion shows

1. Gossip Girl

Of course I love Blair and her style, but she's in college now. Will things change? Will her style give way to something less high class and glamorous? Serena will forever be flawless no matter where, if annoying at times. She's on a trip to find herself, I hope she does. Here are photos fromthe upcoming episodes. I wonder what's up with the new queen bee...

2. Running in Heels

I just really want to intern at a mag like Marie Claire for a day. Yeah, it's so much work, but it's such great experience. And the stock rooms are any girl's paradise. Well, kinda. The show's pretty neat. Well, it's first season of only 8 episodes. And I dont know if it's returning. It followed the lives of 3 interns and the staff at Marie Claire.


3. Project Runway

Who doesn't love this show and of course Heidi Klum?


4. Rachel Zoe Project

Ditto on stock closets.


5. The Beautiful Life

I have to watch and see whether this show will be any good. But for now, fashion prevails.


6. What not to Wear

Totally love Stacy London.


7. Say Yes to the Dress

Makes me feel all gooey along with the bride when she finds the one dress and commits to it. Yay weddings.


8. Mmm...If I draw on movies, I'd have to include: SATC, Killer Hair, Hostile Makeover, Devil Wears Prada, etc

61st Annual Emmy's

I just watched the emmy's after finishing off an episode of CSI:Miami. Yes, my brother has got me way into it. It's actually pretty good. But no way am I following it. That would make way too many shows for me to actually follow with each week. Anyway, the end of the episode featured a fun song by Apalung called Something to Believe In, also featured in Gossip Girl.


The Emmy's were alot of fun today, being hosted by Neil. Napoleon and Tabitha, two awesome hip hop choreographers, gave us a solid number featuring dancers from DWTS, ABDC and SYTYCD. It was pretty good.

The two stars of GG came out to announce, both stunning and beautiful. But I loved Blair's, err Leighton's outfit so much better than Serena, err Blake's who I still love. Ah well.

Heidi Klum looked fab in her piece and was nominated for Project Runway, but sadly did not win.

I am so in love with Ricky Gervais. He's so funny. I totally want to watch The Invention of Lying now. It's gonna be so funny with him and then there is Jennifer Garner there too. Jennifer Love Hewitt looked regal in her gown.

Of all the nominated shows in all categories, my favorite, which I looked forward to most was Little Dorrit based on Charles Dickens' work. The miniseries took home three awards for writer, director and best miniseries. Yay for period dramas. Grey Gardens also got alot of awards, I guess I may watch this one soon.

Mad Men won for outstanding drama tv show which is pretty cool. Not that I watch Mad Men, but I love the class and style of the show.

What the winner for breakout show/thing that Blair and Chuck, err Ed and Leighton, were featured in?

Oooh. I'm looking forward to the Oscars now!

PR

SO it looks like I havn't been keeping up with project runway. On my blog that is. I totally watch it every week.

And I totally love it. Last time, the show Fashion Headliners featured guest judges Eva Longoria, Tommy Hilfiger and Zoe Glassner.
If you havn't yet watched the episode, watch it here on lifetime.

We're down to 12 designers and the talents is getting pretty close. Johnny was so whinny. Chris was so innovative and Ramon so happy to be able to design such out of newspaper. Of the newspaper designs, I loved Shirin's origami like design, Christopher's show stopper, Logan's Asian inspired outfit, Carol Hannah's was amazing, Irina's trench...
My Fave would have to be Irina's! So Beautiful. I would totally wear hers.

Wuthering Heights 2010

OMG! This is like way to uber exciting for me to handle! a new Wuthering Heights is coming out. And who plays the man I love? Ed Westick. Bad boy from Gossip Girl. Such an amazing choice. Cathy? She's being played by Gemma Arterton, the new face who stole our hearts in Tess of the D'Ubervilles. So exciting. Yes, I know they keep making this movie and all other period dramas. But hey. For those of us that love the rustic, what else are we gonna watch if the authors are long gone but their greatest stories over and over again on the big screen?

Stacy!!!

I just love her. Stacy London that is! I finally had the privelege to meet this fashionista at a LOFT event for fashion week. She's so sweet, nice, friendly, beautiful and truthful.



She's a celebrity stylist, a people person, the host of What Not to Wear...


I love this jacket top at the far right. The brown one? But I cant find it online! UGH.

Target, Twilight and Thunder

Okay. No actual thunder. I just wanted to add another T word to create some further alliteration. I just saw the extended trailer for The Twilight Saga's New Moon. It actually looks pretty good. It has a much more epic feel and a darker atmosphere.




Speaking of VMA's, I cant believe Kanye West did that to Taylor Swift. He basically said that she didn't deserve the award. Wow. She just got escorted off. I would have tripped if not. Her song was great and guess what Kanye? Beyonce wins a better award anyway.

Designer Anna Sui brought a gossip girl inspired line to Target. Within a few hours some of the things were already sold out on the target website. Yep. These are some of the dresses, the first is my favorite dress. Too bad I cant buy it anymore.

Prego for PR

Last nights project runway was so interesting! The designers had to create a outift for any occasion they had in night for an actress. The catch? The actress was pregnant. Some of the designs were great and some were so odd. I wish Mitchel got kicked off. Well if he's in the bottom 2 again, he should be out. Shirin's outfit was simply gorgeous! As was Louise's. So romantic.

Make it or Break it

I ditched the Secret Life of the American Teenager when Molly Ringwald's character got knocked up and Amy started acting even more like a beyotch. I tried 10 things i hate about you on the same abc family station, but that got annoying and couldn't bring any of the charm the original did. Ruby and the Rockits had no chance. Since the start, I've been watching Make it or Break it and gotta tell you, I love it. The season finale was today and actually brought some theirs to my eyes. We all love Payson, but alas she decided to be the better person than Kelly Parker and not take the drugs. But yes, we have Kaylie placing gold, and Lauren and Emily making the national team for the Olympics.

If you get a chance and wanna watch a sporty, girly, good tv show, try it out. Make it or Break it, that is.

Christian Siriano sketches Bella's wedding gown and more

InStyle.com has asked nine designers to sketch his or her vision of Bella’s wedding gown, which SPOILER ALERT, we know from the third Twilight book, Eclipse, is an early 1900s design (with Alice Cullen’s updates) and from the fourth, Breaking Dawn, is something that makes the bride’s mother say, “You look like you just stepped out of an Austen movie.” The gown pictured here is from Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, who tells InStyle, “I wanted this to be a modern day antique-inspired gown. The lace bodice climbs up to the neck to reveal a sultry open back of flesh with tiny silk buttons that clasp at the neck. It’s a true turn of the century gown, full of Gothic and glamorous fullness in the skirt which flows as she moves. The gown is mysterious and feminine, perfect for a dream wedding.”

Smallville

OMG. it looks pow wow awesome. Clark Kent is Dead. Superman arises. Hopefully. I see a cape kinda forming. Anyway, it starts Friday Sept 25. I'm so psyched!
Watch the trailer here.

Project Runway, Models of the Runway, U2, Cotton

I am loving this new season of PR already. I love Christopher and Logan so far. Supposedly, one of the models is in love with Logan. "I feel bad for Logan.

Fatima has the hots for him." (Double and triple lol).

Some of the designs were so amazing! The beautiful Heidi Klum hosts with Tim Gunn and today's guest judge was Lindsey Lohan. Yep. Check out the designs here.

I wish Heidi could have done a Chef Ramsey and kicked off both bottom designers. Ah well. Maybe, Mitchel will surprise us next week.
The models of the runway show came on next. One thing I know - I am so jealous of the models of the runway. Not their having to wear any of the horrid outfits, but some outfits are soo amazing. The Emmy event was to die for. Being able to get all those cute and cool goodies? Sweet.

I've heard bits of this song on there tube so many times, so yeah I finally got around to utubing it and found the title. And I like it!



Cotton. We love it. I wear it yay.

Watched bits of SATC

The SATC Movie came on HBO the other night and I was immediately captivated...by the fashion and the glitzy girl quadrupedal.

Last we left Carrie and friends, Big (a.k.a. John) had confessed his love to Carrie on a rescue mission in Paris; Charlotte and Harry were happily embracing home life with their dogs and a daughter on the way; Samantha and Smith were still going strong; and Miranda, Steve and Brady were settled in—gasp!—Brooklyn. Now that the fab four are back, so is their unique and enviable style. Here Charlotte wears a Prada dress and shoes; Carrie sports a Ralph Lauren top, pants, tie and vest with Manolo Blahniks; Miranda wears an Alberta Ferretti dress with Luciano Padovan heels; and Samantha works a Valentino skirt, Thierry Mugler jacket and Fendi tote.

Statement Piece

In one of the opening scenes of the movie, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) introduces us to the two Ls: Labels and Love. And doesn't this ensemble just fit the bill? "I love that big flower she has on," says co-star Jennifer Hudson of this look. "I wish I had Carrie's wardrobe!" Here, she accessorizes with diamond stud earrings, a yellow wallet, a Tiffany bracelet and the Dior Extreme shoe, which makes many appearances in the film.

New Women, New Looks
Even Miranda Hobbes's (Cynthia Nixon) style has evolved. "I wore suits for years and now I have a more glamorous look," says Nixon. "My own fashion has evolved too, because I now have a closetful of clothes from Sex and the City." Here, it's all about that newfound glamour with a Maggie London dress, gold belt and Gucci pumps. Charlotte wears a Ferragamo dress, Christian Louboutin heels and a Chanel bag. Carrie is fresh and floral in a vintage dress, Manolo Blahnik zebra shoes and a Fendi pencil case.

The New Assistant

Jennifer Hudson joins the cast as Louise from St. Louis. When Carrie asks about her fabulous bag, she introduces her to Bag, Borrow or Steal, an online accessories borrowing site. Here, Louise carries a patchwork denim Louis Vuitton. "I love love love purses, just like Louise," says Hudson. "There were times when Sarah would get Louise's purse messed up with mine. She'd say, 'Wow, Louise has hot bags,' and I'd say, 'Uh-uh, this is my bag!'"

A Very Carrie Wedding Dress

Another glorious gown from the shoot is this Vivienne Westwood, which Carrie accessorizes with a dramatic bird hairpiece. "Carrie was always the eclectic girl," says Pat Field. For the film, Field and her team created more than 80 outfits for Carrie to wear.

Charlotte Flaunts It

Kristin Davis, here in a black Zac Posen gown and Daniel Swarovski necklace, says her style has definitely changed since working on the show. "I was like a scared little girl—I hadn't been a designer person because they didn't cut for women with any curves," she says. "Pat said, 'You have curves and we're going to show them off and you're going to be a sexy secretary.' It took a while, but she finally had her way with me."

Cool in Cobalt

The entire cast was shocked at the throes of fans that turned up daily to watch the shooting. On this day, they got to glimpse Miranda in a rich blue Zac Posen gown and Burberry shoes outside the main branch of the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue.

The Fall Collections

To recreate New York Fashion Week, a set was built at Bryant Park to emulate the event. Here, the fashion's as interesting outside of the tents as it is inside. Carrie wears a Lucien Pelat chinchilla over a Dolce & Gabbana dress; Samantha's in white mink and Sonia Rykiel gloves; Miranda layers a J.Mendel coat over a Prada dress; and Charlotte stays warm in a Gianfranco Ferre dress, Valentino top and John Galliano jacket. Her gloves and pin are both by Chanel.

Evening Style

The ladies haven't lost their taste for a night out with a round of cosmos as they hit the trendy Meatpacking District in style: Charlotte in a Vicki Tiel dress, Miu Miu shoes and a Chanel bag; Carrie in a vintage Yves Saint Laurent cape, prized Dior sandals and VBH bag; Samantha in a mirrored dress, Stuart Weitzman shoes and Swarovski bag; and Miranda in a Carolina Herrera dress, Brian Atwood heels and Roberto Cavalli bag.

Ben Barnes: ‘Dorian Gray’ Movie Poster!

Check out these hot new images of Ben Barnes in the upcoming movie, Dorian Gray.

The 27-year-old British actor plays the lead, a corrupt young man who somehow keeps his youthful beauty eternally. But somehow, a special painting gradually reveals his inner ugliness to all.

Charlize Theron Covers Vogue September 2009

Charlize Theron takes the September 2009 cover of Vogue, which has exactly 584 pages of “stylish steals and smart splurges”. Check out what the 34-year-old actress had to say in her interview:

On her longtime love, Irish actor Stuart Townsend: “We’ve been together for almost nine years, so by now we’ve kind of realized that we’re going to take this journey together.” (They’re not married.)

On feeling like she’s shadowed constantly by a sense of remorse for some inappropriate thing she’s just said: “People tell me that cocaine makes you feel superhuman and you’ll say anything. Then when you come down like all of a sudden you have guilt. But I have that feeling innately, even without the cocaine.”

On playing all strong women for films: I can’t tell you about that but I know how I feel about facing my own weaknesses, and playing into my weaknesses and finding that within my characters. My weaknesses are way more interesting to me than my strengths.”

Jeanine Wins it All

Wow. Jeanine won. Yesterday on Sytycd. Season 5. The judges of the results show picked their favorite dances. Adam went first picking the Mad hip hop routine by NappyTabs! Yes, my fave routine as well. Nigel picked Janette and Brandon's Libertango. My fave for those two was the Hush Hush one. Though this won was great too.

Debbie's favorite routine was from two dancers already off the stage - Vitolio and Asuka. True that miss. Their dance was lovely.

I adored Mary Murphy's outfit! Her favorite dance was choreographed by the brilliant Travis Wall! It was a great dance! Mia Micheal's favorite dance was Kayla and Max's smoking hot samba! Yes. Kayla in hot pink and Max in that black was truly hot and the dance was amazing.

So cool. The top four attended a first screening of the movie Fame starring the beautiful dancer Kherington of season 4, just like the top 4 of season 2 attended the Step Up screening. Not only is Kherington in the movie, but Debbie Allen is in it too.

Debbie Allen's favorite dance was choreographed by season 2's Dimirti and Nappy Tabs - the top 16 group dance.

Some more stuff occurred....

I am so psyched for season 6. One month away. Yay!

Ooh Adam picked another fave dance. This one by Mia was the butt dance. Hah.

Mary Murphy's next fave dance was the paso doble. Hot stuff. Nigel made fun of Mary's botox use. Nigel brought back one of my faves, the addiction routine! So good. Yoou know these dancers are way talented. Learning four diff dancers on one day and being able to reproduce their old dances easily. Amazing talents. True, they're all winners. who picks out cat's outfits?

Some group called Rage boys crew danced. Whoever they are. Tyce brought disco onto stage starring Janette and Brandon. I really like it too. Mia brought back the memorable breast cancer piece with Melissa and Ade.

For some reason the judges danced. So hilarious.

And then our winner was crowned.

(500) Days of Summer — In Theaters Now!

Costars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel premiere their latest movie (500) Days of Summer at Hollywood’s Egyptian Theatre late last month.

The movie’s tagline? “Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn’t.”

The clever, offbeat romantic comedy has been getting strong buzz from critics and has scored an impressive 88% on RottenTomatoes. You can check out the trailer and more about the movie at FoxSerchlight.com.

Yay! I watched 500 days of summer with my minia and we simply loved it. the timing, the conversation, the acting, the layout...the everything was simply perfect! I recommend it! Go watch it! NOW.

I love love love Zooey's style in the movie too. It's chic and old class, but so beautiful. And Joseph? He's is so adorable. So cute.

Shows I'm watching this summer. Religiously. SYTYCD. Make it or Break it. Next Food Network Star. Royal Pains (finally, a doctor show i like). Maybe - Mad men.

Hilary Duff: Gossip Girl Gorgeous

Hilary Duff turns up bright and early for her first day on the set of Gossip Girl on Monday (August 3) in New York City.

The 21-year-old singer/actress will have a multi-episode arc playing Olivia Burke, a movie star who enrolls at NYU in search of a traditional college experience. She ends up rooming with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr). Olivia will be the new love interest for Dan (Penn Badgley).

Over the weekend, it was announced that Tyra Banks will also join the GG cast, playing an actress co-starring in a film with Olivia.

FYI: Hilary is carrying around the 2006 Jodi Piccoult book, “The Pact: A Love Story (P.S.).”

GG seems to be branching..expanding. I hope I'll still like it after they throw in all these well knowns.

Last Night's Sytycd Finale

Wow. This is the first time the finale was done in kodak theatre. Yah. Pretty amazing Cat Deeley.

My favorite guest judge is Adam S, so I'm happy they put him on the panel. Mary yells. Nigel waves. Right on Adam. This final four was a surprise. No guesses here really. Except Kayla and Brandon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a better season 6.

The explosive night showcased the most number of combinations of each dancer with one another. Kayla, Jeanine, Brandon and Evan danced together in a number choreoraphed by Wade Robonson. The football jocks dancing with the cheerleaders was loads of fun. The story came through and the concept was enjoyable.

Jeanine and Evan's Jazz began the couple dancers. It was okay. Nothing too amazing to see here. Except for Jeanine beating Evan up. Hah. Evan is the mole hill that became the mountain. Never this, never that, never blah. So yeah, I think Jeanine is gonna win.

Tyce gave us a hard and fun broadway number showcasing Kayla and Brandon. The splits spin was way cool! The table was reminiscent of Sabre and Neil of season 3. Overall, the piece was so good. 'I am so stoked!' I love Adam! Speaking of which, I love the show Stoked.
Tyce Diorio? a cookie? hahaha. OREO
At least nigel agrees with me. I think the show is finally beginning now. My point exactlty. This whole season hasn't been that great.

Brandon and Evan's pop jazz was pretty cool to start. It wasn't great or anything but some of the moves were so cool and others simply okay. Evan wasn't as good, but like the judges said, he's too much of a sweetie to be a ...nasty boy. Hah, Evan had nothing nasty about him. Punch to the face. Brandon outdanced Evan for sure.

Mia Michaels gave us Jeanine and Kayla's contemporary. I actually usually like her pieces. and no doubt now. I loved this one. The shedding layers concept was pretty tight. lol. Yeah, they should have kept that last layer on.

Kayla and Evan's jive was pretty good...

Jeanine and Brandon's paso doble was great. But my favorite is still Travis and Heidi's of season 2. The judges loved it. Nigel called them his best dancers. Which I didn't much like. I mean, Kayla and Evan come out and are standing right there. Ah well. We'll see what happens tonight. I have no favorites. But I'm prob rooting for Kayla or Jeanine. Sorry boys.

Finale Four

The top four for the Sytycd season 5 finale was chosen last night. With indifference I watched the beautiful and talented Melissa and the strong Ade get kicked off the show. So here's the top four - Jeanine, Brandon, Kayla and Evan. My fave of these four? I'll have to pick Jeanine. Runner up? Kayla. I dont care much for Brandon or Evan.

What to Wear for the Next 6 Months

Need a cheat sheet on fall fashion? Here you go: new shapes, new ways to make the stuff you already own suddenly exciting to wear again. Our model took it all for a test-drive, and adorable actor Hugh Dancy came along for the ride!

Pair black tights with everything you own

They’re a sleek finishing touch, and they keep even a combo of girly layers, polka dots and lace trim from looking too cupcake-ish.

Play off a print with an unexpected piece

On our what-we’re-loving list for fall: grandpa cardigans, brimmed hats, patterned tights. Pick them in rich autumn colors like plum, teal and cocoa.

Dress, Louis Vuitton.

This fall try something dramatic—yes, even a cape!

Memorize: “With every outfit I put on, I will add one little-bit-different item”—could be boots with shorts, or a top with poufy sleeves.

Combine a white shirt with something waist-cinching

Re-think the white shirt.

Goofproof stylist trick: Tuck a bigger, billowier white top into a curve-hugging pencil skirt. Voilà, major fashion statement.

Do the slim pants/bigger top thing

Cozy up in a sweater coat.

A coat or sweater that hits around the knee makes a comfy new silhouette for work or the weekend.

Ahh. I love Glamour. And Hugh Dancy.

Anticipating

Jennifer Garner in a new movie called Valentine's Day.

Sytycd

Disappointing.
Pretty much so.
I liked...the breast cancer piece

Nothing else stood out really. Frankly this season has been a bummer. Now I cant wait for the next season. It's kinda good that it's this fall instead of next summer. Well, I guess I'll see what happens. Maybe that boy will bring great promise to the show. I hope so at least.

Missing season 2 and season 4...

Some movies I really want to watch in order of most to least:

Roswell

So I stumbled upon Roswell episodes on Hulu and clicked. I was curious, was this show as good as it was cracked up to be? Yeah. Well for a tv show made in the 90's. 1999 to be exact. I first saw it in a montage to the song by Dido called Here with Me. And now I'm watching it. Well just season one. I think I'll go crazy if I stay behind my computer to watch seasons 2 and 3 as well. It stars the lovely Katherine Heigl as one of the aliens. Yes, aliens. Read a description here. It almost gets me wondering if aliens are even real. Okay, just kidding. They're fake. Of course. Though I still believe in Clark Kent as Superman. Joking.


















Let's see: Human and Alien/Vampire/Werewolf/Witch/etc fall in LOVE

20 All-Time Coolest Heroes in Pop Culture

20. SYDNEY BRISTOW

WHY HER: Jennifer Garner's hotsy, butt-kicking double/triple/multiple agent on Alias helped launch show creator J.J. Abrams into the upper tier of thriller auteurism.
BEST ACCESSORY: Any spandex clothing item, preferably red. Loved her!

19. ATTICUS FINCH

WHY HIM: In Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, and in the movie with Gregory Peck, Atticus transforms quiet decency, legal acumen, and great parenting into the most heroic qualities a man can have.
COPYCAT DESCENDANT: A Time to Kill's Jake Tyler Brigance.

18. BATMAN

WHY HIM: The brooding Batman is the paradigm for gadgety, nonpowered superheroes. And Christian Bale's Dark Knight acts as the ultimate war-on-terror hero — and cautionary tale.
BEST ACCESSORY: Batarangs. Because they're called Batarangs.

17. NANCY DREW

WHY HER: The first female hero embraced by most little girls, Drew lived in an endless summer of adventures and unlimited potential.
BEST ACCESSORY: Flashlight.
COPYCAT DESCENDANTS: Scooby-Doo's Velma, Veronica Mars

10. SPIDER-MAN

WHY HIM: Sure, Peter Parker (played on film by Tobey Maguire) has powers beyond those of mortal men...but he's just a kid, trying to land a job, care for his aunt, and make nice with his dream girl. And he still finds time for feats of bravery.
MOST HEROIC MOVE: Risking life and limb to stop a runaway el train in Spider-Man 2.
LEAST HEROIC MOVE: That alien-goop-prompted emo strut he whips out in Spider-Man 3.

8. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER

WHY HER: No one kicks undead ass with more stylin' sass than the SoCal blonde, immortalized by Sarah Michelle Gellar in Joss Whedon's TV series. To quote her tombstone, ''She saved the world — a lot.''
MOST HEROIC MOVE: To protect her sister — and humanity — she jumps to her (temporary) death in a snarling portal of evil.

4. HARRY POTTER

WHY HIM: Orphaned, cast out, and in the throes of adolescent hormonal revolt, J.K. Rowling's boy wizard (played by Daniel Radcliffe on screen) is the embodiment of the corny bumper sticker: Why be normal?
MOST HEROIC MOVE: Obliterating Voldemort by deploying his secret weapons: love, loyalty, and the good ol' Expelliarmus.
BIGGEST WEAKNESS: Misses his mommy and daddy.

3. SUPERMAN

WHY HIM: He's no less than the superhero archetype, but it wasn't until Christopher Reeve donned his tights that we realized the Man of Steel also had a soul.
MOST HEROIC MOVE: When he saves California from falling into the sea. No, it's when he gives his life to stop Doomsday from destroying Metropolis. No, wait, it's being Superman.
LEAST HEROIC MOVE: Superman IV: The Quest for Peace.
