I Pledge Allegiance to the Red Carpet

Have any plans for moviegoing this weekend? I regret to inform that there isn't much new of note to choose from unless you hit the theaters that show limited releases. Though the Divergent Series has performed respectably at the box office it never remotely reached what it was going for: being the new Hunger Games in terms of loot and broad cultural reach. And interest does seem to be dwindling. The super unwieldy title of the third effort is The Divergent Series: Allegiant and it's sometimes called Allegiant - Part 1 (2016) -- at least according to IMDb. Strangely the fourth film is not called Part 2 but The Divergent Series: Ascendance. So perhaps even the studio has lost enough interest that no one is in charge of the details.

Anyway this is just an excuse to show photos from the handsome red carpet. The headliners Shailene Woodley and Theo James dressed like they were attending a funeral (perhaps they're in mourning that they still have to film another one?) so it was up to the supporting cast to bring the glitz.  

Naomi Watts (top left) provided some mature razzle dazzle (she loves silver, huh?) and here's how the young men looked: 

From left to right: Miles Teller (Whiplash), Keiynan Lonsdale (The Flash), Jonny Weston (Chasing Mavericks), Ansel Elgort (The Fault in Our Stars) and Joseph David-Jones (Legends of Tomorrow). Just as I was thinking "this cast looks very CW generic" I realized that it was no coincidence since two of them are currently in CW superhero shows. 

Which suit do you like best and what is happening with Ansel's collar? It's like he's wearing a mini towel after doing some cardio.

I just hope the film flops to the point that we don't get its sequel while the actors would later badmouth the film for how bad things got by the time the second film was made.

I have such a deep hatred for Elgort.
It's so evident that Watts and Daniels were lured into this movie for the dollars and they are barely even interested in talking about it while on talkshows promoting it.
Watts also play the mother of Theo James, which is appallingly not surprising in Hollywood.

Ansel Elgort is the most insufferable young actor of our time.

I saw 10 Cloverfield Lane tonight and really enjoyed it.

Jonny looks the best. I love that Keinyan is rocking a color, BUT YOU DO NOT BUTTON THE LAST BUTTON ON A SUIT and I can't believe no one told him that before he got there.

(I've worked in menswear for a long time and sometimes you can take the boy out of Nordstrom but not the Nordstrom out of the boy)
