When Bad Things Happen To Good Actresses (Part Zillion)

NATHANIEL R in Cam Gigandet, Joel Schumacher, Julianne Moore, Michelle Pfeiffer, Nicolas Cage, Nicole Kidman, Trespass

What are the chances that Trespass (2011) in which my beloved Nicole Kidman is soiled by association with hacktor Nicolas Cage is as terrible as Next (2007) in which my beloved Julianne Moore was soiled by association with hacktor Nicolas Cage?

Slim? I mean Next is an atrocious movie... so Trespass would have to be less embarrassing, right? Famous last words?

The only reason I saw Next back in the day was because I'm a masochist/completist with Julianne. Even Julianne herself felt sorry for me when I told her I'd seen nearly all of them.

Really? My god, you've seen some junk then!

I haven't been anywhere close to a completist with Nicki Kidman, Nicki Kidman. Which... well, I'm not sure why. So I can probably live with myself if I skip Trespass. The movie supposedly arrives in October but things have been suspiciously quiet and honestly I keep forgetting that it even exists... so I'm very late with the sharing of posters, news, photos.

Don't get so close, Nicole. You'll get cooties!

The same selective/protective amnesia thing keeps happening to me with Michelle Pfeiffer & New Year's Eve. But more on that one soon... unless I forget it again. I am duty bound to see that once since we only get one Pfeiffer picture every 100 years. She's like the Brigadoon of actresses. (sigh)

Trespass was originally slated for 2012 but I guess they finished early and it might be a limited theatrical or even straight to DVD thing? Joel Shumacher, who directed Kidman in Batman Forever and Cage in 8MM corralled those stars again for this story about two marrieds (Kidman & Cage) whose dream home is invaded. Here's Nic & Nic being terrorized by Animal Kingdom's Ben Mendelsohn and Nicole hanging with Cam Gigandet. 

I would've typed "shirtless Cam Gigandet" but that's so redundant, don'cha think?
