Bradley Cooper - Blog Posts
Why did no one bother to tell me the climax of Limitless (2011) is Bradley Cooper going through withdrawals as he drinks a loan sharks blood for a hit?
Why could I see in an AU Johnny and V duetting ‘Never Fade Away’ the same way Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga duet ‘Shallow’.

The Words (2012)
I am not sure that I can put the perfect words together to express how much I am touched by this movie. But I want to write. I have to express something about what I think about it.
Basically, it’s a movie about a writer reading his book about a writer who’ve stole a story of another writer. Sounds crazy, right? The movie itself is insanely great.
It’s definitely a 5/5. This movie is everything I search for in a movie. It has a great storyline, the drama is intense and heartbreaking, but most importantly, it has got a feeling of it’s own. The mixture of two stories in two different era created an art.
The cast is amazing. I can’t imagine someone else playing the younger version of Jeremy Irons other than Ben Barnes. There is something very similar between them. Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana were the perfect choice as a couple.
I will never stop recommending this movie. It is very underrated.
For the people who haven’t still watched it: Do yourself a favour, take a break and watch the damn movie.
My Top Independence Day Movies (Independence Day not included)
Yes, you read that right. I am not including the seminal Will Smith action flick Independence Day in my list of most patriotic movies. Do I always enjoy a viewing of it? Sure, but it doesn't exactly need my endorsement. Let's take a look at some lesser known, equally good films that would perfectly accent your July 4th and why you should choose them over the Patriot or Top Gun or Die Hard (which is a Christmas movie anyway).
1) Waiting for Guffman (1997) – A mockumentary style film from Christopher Guest and Co. (This is Spinal Tap; Best in Show; A Mighty Wind). It follows a group of small-town-American characters as they prepare for the fictional Blaine, Missouri’s sesquicentennial celebration, the centerpiece of which is a musical covering the town’s history called “Red, White, & Blaine.” It is a hilarious portrait of the American spirit captured in all the bizarre, oddities of the classic Small Town. You’ll find yourself quoting your favorite moments for years to come.
2) Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999) –Another mockumentary that chronicles small-town American life, this time in Mt. Rose. Minnesota. We follow the various contestants in the Mt. Rose Miss American Teen Princess beauty pageant, and the contestants range from the dopey cheerleader (Amy Adams in her film debut) to the theater geek (Brittany Murphy at her absolute best) to sweet underdog protagonist who practices her tap dancing while working in the morgue (Kirsten Dunst). This movie moves seamlessly from the sublime to the ridiculous, satirizing not only beauty pageants but the politics of the Midwest small-town. Another one with quotable moments every other minute.
3) Wet Hot American Summer (2001) – Everyone in this movie is someone who has made you laugh till your stomach hurts in something (or everything) else they have done in their careers. Pulling heavily from members of the sketch comedy group The State, it has everyone from David Hyde Pierce to Amy Poehler to Molly Shannon to Paul Rudd to Ken Marino to an infantile Bradley Cooper (AND MANY, MANY MORE!). Directed by David Wain (Role Models; Wanderlust), we see the goings on of the last day at Camp Firewood and mainly the romantic endeavors of the counselors and camp directors. It is weird and offbeat and joyous and dark and a beautiful picture of the kind of summer we all wish we could have again (kind of – give or take a few things like refrigerator humping). Oh yeah, did I mention beloved Detective Stabler, Christopher Meloni, humps a refrigerator?
4) Captain America : the First Avenger (2011) – BECAUSE – DUH. It would not be a proper list of All-American movies if I neglected to include All-American superhero Captain America portrayed by All-American beef cake Chris Evans. It takes place during World War II the most nostalgically “good-guys” period of American history, there is a song entitled “The Star Spangled Man with a Plan” and Steve Rodgers is…hoo…he is, uhh…the kind of man with the kind of courage, heart, head of hair, and muscles I think we all wish we could be (myself included). It’s got a good little story and a good bit of action and just a little splash of romance to make a great 4th of July flick. And also, look, yeah, if maybe you double featured this with Marvel's the Avengers I’m not going to do anything to stop you that sounds great.
Tuxedo Time - The Best Looking Men dressed in their Sunday Best
Ok, so maybe on Henley Monday I promised a Tuxedo Tuesday. And maybe yesterday there was a blizzard and I also go distracted and forgot to make the post. Maybe that's all true. But HERE. NOW. I bring you a plethora of photos from Hollywood's Biggest Night.
I bring you...Men In Tuxedos at the Oscars!
First, let's walk down the red carpet....
If you look closely, you can see Mr. Tveit's striped socks. I love a man who has a bit of whimsy when it comes to his dress socks.
Next up is Aaron "Enjolras" Tveit's Les Mis buddy Eddie Redmayne rocking the hell out of his velvet slippers.
Chris Pine went for the double breasted jacket. I die. I just die. He's not alone in his refusal to shave either. Many, many actors declined to rid themselves of facial hair for the black tie event.
This picture of Joseph Gordon Levitt shows the detail on his tux. The fabric has a bit of texture to it, as well as the piping details. I can't tell if the piping is silk or leather. I really want it to be leather.
Bradley Cooper brought his mom! He brought his adorable and precocious mom! She has on a pink ostrich feather stole AND tennis shoes! Brad's three-piece Tom Ford also rule and even though his hair is yucky he looks fine.
My personal fave Chris Evans brought his proud momma along too! She looks radiant. Chris, I love a good bow tie, but I get that's not quite your style.
Then the show started and more men tromped out on stage including this fine selection of male specimen from the Avengers. Samuel L. Jackson gets major points for going with that garnet velvet. Love it.
A whole bunch of awards were given out and the biggest one of the night went to Ben Affleck for Argo! He dressed the part of a best picture winner with a one button, silk lapel jacket, vest, and silk bow-tie! DAMN, AFFLECK, YOUR FACE IS AGING AS WELL AS YOUR CAREER!
Basically I was looking at my TV like this all night long:
Predicting the fate of the Avengers - Spoilers below
So I just finished Infinity War and boy did it hurt. A lot. So to make myself feel better and hopefully other fans out there, here is a little list of what I think will happen to my children.
IRON MAN/TONY STARK
Well he surprisingly survived Infinity War against all odds but the chances of him surviving Avengers 4 are slim. Robert Downey Junior has made no official statement of renewing his contract with Marvel so he will most probably bow out of the role in Avengers 4. Whether Marvel kills him off entirely or he retires from the life of Iron Man and is never seen again, maybe start a farm with Pepper. Well I hope for the best but that’s not usually what I get.
CAPTAIN AMERICA/NOMAD/STEVE ROGERS
Another person who surprisingly survived Infinity War. Chances of surviving Avengers 4 are small. Chris Evans has not yet expressed any interest in renewing his contract so it will be likely that Captain America will be killed off in Avengers 4. Whether Bucky or Sam will take up the mantle of Captain America is another question entirely.
THANOS
Hopefully this motherfucker dies because he is a complete asshole and doesn’t deserve life. He will probably die by the end of some big final battle in Avengers 4.
THOR
A survivor of Infinity War who will hopefully not die in Avengers 4. With the huge success of Thor: Ragnarok there might be a chance for a Thor 4 and Chris Hemsworth will be back to reprise his role. That would be the best possible outcome for Thor. His chances of surviving Avengers 4 is probably a tiny bit better than the survival of characters such as Iron Man and Captain America. Also he just got this amazing axe upgrade and it would be a bit of a waste for it to be shown in just 2 movies.
BLACK WIDOW/NATASHA ROMANOFF
A survivor of Infinity War. There is a decent chance that she will die in Avengers 4 but also a decent chance that she will live. Marvel is currently working on a Black Widow movie but whether the events in the movie are going to be before or after the events of Avengers 4 is still unknown.
NEBULA
She’s thankfully alive but it could be due to the role she plays in defeating Thanos in the comics. Hopefully we could see her play her part in Avengers 4 but whether she would survive the ordeal in it is still a question remained unanswered. She should survive as her character has a lot of potential for development especially with Guardians of the Galaxy 3 coming up.
THE HULK/BRUCE BANNER
My boy Bruce is alive. The chances of him surviving Avengers 4 are higher than most of his team. Considering the development The Hulk has gone through in Thor: Ragnarok and Infinity War, his character hopefully won’t come to a close in Avengers 4. The Hulk still has room to develop especially after that whole thing in Infinity War where The Hulk wouldn’t come out to fight.
OKOYE
This badass is thankfully alive and should remain so as we won’t have a general to lead the Dora Milaje with a Black Panther sequel being discussed.
ROCKET RACCOON
My small rabbit survived but at a very great cost. Marvel give him a break already he doesn’t deserve losing everyone. He should be safe for Avengers 4 with Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in the works.
WAR MACHINE/RHODEY
Oh he’s already been through so much thank you Marvel for keeping him alive. He should be safe for Avengers 4. If he survives he’ll be a member of the new Avengers and help fill in Tony’s shoes if he dies.
STAR LORD/PETER QUILL
He’s at the moment dead. Star Lord will most probably be revived as there is a Guardians of the Galaxy 3 scheduled for release in the next few years. He should be alive by the end of Avengers 4.
DOCTOR STRANGE/STEPHEN STRANGE
A dead man. Strange will most probably be revived as there is much room for his character to grow and develop. Strange is also a very powerful character in the MCU so getting rid of him will be a waste. A person like Cumberbatch also brings in a lot of profit due to well Benedict being Benedict and the entire internet absolutely loving him. There was also that cliffhanger at the end of Doctor Strange which could be explored in sequels. He should be alive by the end of Avengers 4.
SPIDERMAN/PETER PARKER
Oh my poor child he was too young. Spiderman will most probably be alive by the end of Avengers 4 as there is the Spiderman sequel being made. Spiderman is also a very new and popular addition to the MCU so killing him in Avengers 4 would be a waste.
SCARLET WITCH/WANDA MAXIMOFF
My poor girl is dead. Scarlet Witch is a very powerful character and has a lot of room to grow and develop. Marvel won’t give up this character with that much potential. She should be safe for Avengers 4.
GAMORA
Oh my poor girl is dead. With a Guardians of the Galaxy in the works, it is uncertain if Gamora will rejoin her family to fight evil ever again. But it is possible that she simply trapped in the Soul Stone as she was necessary for Thanos to obtain it. She could be revived for Avengers 4 but still keep your fingers crossed.
GROOT
How dare they touch my tree. My tree did not deserve that. He should be alive by the end of Avengers 4 due to Guardians of the Galaxy 3 around the corner. Also I just want to see my tree grow.
THE VISION
My baby is dead. He did not deserve that right after he found love. The Mind Stone was ripped from his head killing him but there might be a chance of survival. This depends on how far Shuri got into removing the Mind Stone. If they somehow got the Mind Stone back to Vision that might bring Vision back to life. He probably has a 50/50 chance of being revived by the end of Avengers 4.
WHITE WOLF/WINTER SOLDIER/BUCKY BARNES
I’ve watched him die twice now. Give my boy a break. After the whole finger snap of doom we can assume that he is simply another soul trapped in the Soul Stone. Bucky has gone through a lot of changes and development through his time in the MCU and he should be safe for Avengers 4. Also I just want a Bucky movie Kevin Feige please just give it to us.
MANTIS
My sweet innocent girl just crumpled to ash. She should be alive by the end of Avengers 4 with Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in the works. She is also a very powerful character despite her timid personality. Would be a waste for Marvel to just throw away this character.
LOKI ODINSON
Now there’s lots of theories surrounding Loki’s death which you can find by just scrolling through the Loki tag on tumblr. I am currently in denial myself about his death because I love hime too much. The best possible outcome of this is that he is alive and he goes and leads what remains of Asgard and get a standalone Loki movie. Worst case scenario is that he remains dead forever and Thor is alone without a brother he just got back. Prepare yourself for both.
THE FALCON/SAM WILSON
He dead. Also probably trapped in the Soul Stone but should be alive by the end of Avengers 4. He should also be a part of the new Avengers team after the original ones die/exit.
MARIA HILL
She’s dead but should return by the end of Avengers 4 as she is another soul trapped in the Soul Stone. She should continue to be Nick Fury’s right hand.
BLACK PANTHER/T’CHALLA
How dare they kill my king. Right after we just fall in love with him in Black Panther. He should be alive by the end of Avengers 4 with a Black Panther sequel being discussed. Marvel also wouldn’t end T’Challa’s story after the immense success and impact of Black Panther because that would be the stupidest move made in Marvel history.
HEIMDALL
Poor Heimdall. Didn’t deserve that. Unfortunately I don’t see a return for his character into the MCU after being stabbed like that. You will be missed.
HAWKEYE/CLINT BARTON
Alive? We don’t know after the whole finger snap of doom but seeing as there are a lot of theories surrounding him for Avengers 4 we’ll presume that he is alive. We don’t know the how big of a role he will play in Avengers 4 so it will be hard to tell whether he will survive Avengers 4.
WONG
Alive? I don’t know but he should be as there was that cliffhanger in Doctor Strange and it just wouldn’t be complete without my boy listening to Beyoncé while kicking ass.
ANT MAN/SCOTT LANG
Alive? Don’t know because he wasn’t in the movie. Hopefully he wasn’t a victim of the finger snap of doom because that would suck. There’s also theories of his role in Avengers 4 which relies heavily on his use of the quantum realm. Look it up.
SHURI
Alive? Hopefully she wasn’t a victim of the finger snap of doom. She should have a bigger role in Avengers 4 especially if they plan on bringing Vision back. Hopefully she’ll be safe by the end of Avengers 4 especially with a sequel being discussed.
PEPPER POTTS
Alive? We don’t know if she’s a victim of the finger snap of doom. Hopefully she isn’t because we just her back and Tony would be devastated if she was dead.
Please tell me if I’ve missed anyone because I feel like I did with this gigantic cast.
there was an idea...
don’t steal and credits me please much appreciated
