New To The Walk Away list: C. Thomas Howell in To Protect & Serve

ADS

One of my favorite posts was back in 2008 when I did my motion picture 'Walk-Away' list. Four years later it is time to go back to the vault and update the list with scenes from movies I have seen since the original list.



In the meantime, one of my favorite places to visit, Casperfan's cap site added some of the best caps I have seen of C. Thomas Howell from 1992's To Protect And Serve. C. Thomas should tide you over until I update the list!

The Walk Away...

ADS

From August 2008.
The Walk Away: We all love them. It is used in movie after movie. A safe way to get a hot male actor naked. Usually it is an actor getting out of bed, walking across a room. Here are some of my favorites:

#10
What was so shocking about this was, besides the brief frontal of JP was I never thought I would ever see 'Brandon' naked. Jason Priestly in Calender Girl.



#9
I loved Steve Guttenbergs walk away in The Bedroom Window.




#8
Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse



#7
Even though he showed more in a few scenes, this was a favorite scene of Kevin Zegers in Transamerica.


#6
Rob Lowe in YoungBlood




Bonus Walk-Away
Lowe with Kim Cattrall in Masquerade.



#5
Wes Ramsey's cute tushie in Latter Days.




#4
Billy Zane in Dead Calm




#3
Jude Law at his absolute hottest in Wilde.



#2
The Oh so beautiful behind of Ryan Phillipe in 54.




#1
Of course, I have posted versions of this scene many times, it certainly is a classic, Casper Van Dien's glorious backside in Starshipp Troopers

Come & Join the Circus

ADS

Up until the age of 12 I frequently dreamt of running away and joining the circus. My dream was built on the magic of the lights, the music, my love of animals, my love of performing and my desperate desire to escape.



By the time I was old enough to actually take the journey, reality had set in. Not only was the traditional circus pretty much dead by the time I was a teenager, my knowledge and awareness of the treatment of the animals would not have allowed me to to work somewhere that had bears riding bikes and elephants forced to dance. My homelife had also stabilized to the point escape, although still a plan, was not one I needed to act on with the same degree of urgency.



I wonder where kids today dream of running off to. Sure, we have Cirque du Soleil but the mystic of the tradional circus wasn't just about what happened within the three rings, but what happened beyond them. Although I know the reviews were not kind, the recent film Water For Elephants brought to life for me what it was I was dreaming of. There was a sense of not only excitment and adventure but of family and inclusion. A ragtag group of people, forming a family, traveling the country with a rough and dirty yet magical mystique that pulled at the dreams of all kids like me, seeking a place to belong.



Hope you enjoy our day at the circus!

12 Months to GO!!!

ADS

Now I wish no physical harm or actual death on anyone. But...now that 2012 is in full gear it is time to denounce twelve (1 per month) pop culture and media horrors that haunted us all in 2011 Some I have mentioned before, some might be new. Before you dismiss my list too quickly, ask yourself...have you seen Kate Gosslin lately? Your Welcome! Feel free to add your own!

12: Jennifer Hudson's weight watcher ads:

The voice that once moved me emotionally now has me moving quickly for the mute button.

11: The Kardashian's

Despite a brief infatuation with Rob's butt in stretchy dance pants it is truly time for those of us with a brain to turn away.

10: Anti-gay Politicians

It is time politicians stop using the rights of some it's citizens and the fears of others to manipulate votes.

9: Planking:

Was fun and interesting for about a week, then...not so much

8: The Voice:

There are far too many talent shows on tv as it is and this one's the weakest.

7: LL

People say most do Playboy on the way up, or the way down. Lets hope in her case...it is the way out.

6: Reality Biographies:
Image Source:

Seems pretty much everyone who has their 15 minutes gets a book. Why? And most importantly, if anyone who reads FH purchased A Shore Thing by Snooki, leave NOW!

5: Speaking of Snooki...

Everyone and everything connected to JS needs to drift out to sea. You think it's harmless? You think it's funny? Laugh all you want but this depiction is how most of the rest of the globe think most Americans behave and live like.

4: Anything Twilight related:

I love me Kellan Lutz, some Cam Gigandet. I can even tolerate some Pattinson but not in Twilight. Except their making them money, Twilight did nothing for it's cast acting wise but bring them down.

3: Katherine Heigl movies:

She did some moving work on television but in movies...not so much.

2: Manipulated Members:

Yeah, I know I have gone on and on about it recently but lets hope 2011 brings the end of photoshopped penis' from uncreative creators.

1:Glee:


Not so much an end but more a hope. Lets hope 2012 brings us something we have yet to see...Two well written Glee episodes in a row!!!
