Anne Hathaway at The Dark Knight Rises Premiere

With The Dark Knight Rises premiering around the globe, we're being treated to an onslaught of Anne Hathaway's feminine brand of red-carpet glamour. The actress is working with her Les Misérables-induced pixie cut by countering with the most flirtatious and feminine of gowns, showing off a peplum-trimmed Givenchy sheath for one appearance, a fringed Stella McCartney the next. Yesterday, Anne took a turn for the ethereal in a white, draped, and peplum-adorned Prabal Gurung Resort '13 confection for the film's NYC premiere; today, she stepped out in London in a floral-collared, gold-beaded Gucci halter dress. Click on to see Anne light up the premiere circuit in her latest looks.

Dark Knight, Battlestar Galactica Win at the 2009 Saturn Awards

It's that time of year again!


It's that time of year again! The Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Films handed out the Saturn Awards last night to honor the best actors, movies, and TV shows in these genres. It's a lot for one awards show to cover, but these awards honored some great entertainment that doesn't always get mainstream attention.

Of course, some blockbusters got recognized, too: The Dark Knight took home lots of awards, including another honor for the late Heath Ledger. Iron Man also did very well, with Robert Downey Jr. nabbing the award for best actor and Jon Favreau for director. I love that even the little vampire movie Let the Right One In scored an award. Battlestar Galactica made a splash in the television categories, winning three awards.

Oscar Worthy Gadgets: The Dark Knight's Cell Phone Capers

One of my favorite films of last year, The Dark Knight unquestionably shines with the performance of Heath Ledger as the Joker, nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

One of my favorite films of last year, The Dark Knight unquestionably shines with the performance of Heath Ledger as the Joker, nominated for Best Supporting Actor. The film's up for a slew of other nominations that I'm really interested in because of their technical slants, like Best Cinematography, Film Editing, Sound, Sound Editing, and Visual Effects.

That's not just why the Batman sequel was a geek's dream; it featured the Nokia Tube as Lucius Fox's cell, and a couple pivotal scenes centered around cell phone communication as a plot device.

A cell phone being inside one of the thugs was particularity gruesome, while the scene with Rachel Dawes' and Harvey Dent's last cell conversation was heartbreaking. But not even their intensity can beat the staggering image of the city's 3D view of the cell phone network that would finally lead Bruce Wayne to his mark.
