    Joseph Gordon-Levitt Apologizes For “Pretty Girls Aren’t Funny” Comment, But In Case He Needs A Refresher… For someone who declared “most pretty girls aren’t funny” recently, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is doing a pretty good job of not making us want to bang our skulls against a pile of Margaret Cho DVDs. The Dark Knight Rises actor allegedly blurted out that factually inaccurate statement at the Looper panel at Comic-Con while talking about costar Emily Blunt, but has since offered an explanation. “I’m actually glad you asked me about that, because I was embarrassed,” he told a reporter for Yahoo’s OMG. “Sometimes the words come out really wrong, and sometimes the words come out really wrong in front of thousands of people. I do apologize.” We should hope so, JGL! You’re friends with Zooey Deschanel! You’ve seen New Girl! You should know better! So what was Joseph trying to get across? “In our culture, girls do tend to get pigeonholed,” he explains. “And I was trying and failing to pay [blunt] a compliment about the fact that she really succeeded in avoiding those traps and not getting pigeonholed, and even though she’s a very good looking young women she is so funny and plays such a badass and a strong woman in Looper.” We’ll accept your explanation, JGL, but mainly because we still want to see Looper. In the meantime, in case you need a refresher course on how attractive women are capable of saying funny things, please take a moment to look through our Funniest Lady In Film This Summer gallery, where women from Anna Farris to Rashida Jones, Elizabeth Banks to Mila Kunis will remind you how exactly it is done.

    Gary Oldman has been involved in all of Christopher Nolan's "Batman" films, playing Police Detective (and, later, Commissioner) Jim Gordon, an honest man in a world of deception; Joseph Gordon-Levitt joins the franchise with this film as John Blake, a freshly-minted Gotham cop who enters Gordon and Bruce Wayne's world of intrigue. On-screen, they give Nolan's films a sense of human scale and endeavor; off-screen, they're busy mocking each other and talking about Gordon-Levitt's soon-to-be-released '"Looper." ("People keep mentioning that movie to you," Oldman noted to Leavitt as I joined them. "I've got to bloody see it ..." ) We spoke with the two actors in L.A. MSN Movies: You both do a lot of action and stunt work in the film, but did you at least get to say to yourself “Thank God I’m not wearing a suit made of 130 pieces”? Is it easy to think that you’re taking it a little easier than some of the other actors? Gary Oldman: Uh … well, I was in a hospital gown and spent a great deal of the movie on my back … Joseph Gordon-Levitt: (Laughs) Oldman: … acting from a bed so I feel particularly guilty … Right. Oldman: … because it wasn’t fair of me. You actually walk in with a costume. Gordon-Levitt: (Laughs) Oldman: I was in a robe… Gordon-Levitt: You were … Oldman: … in a bed … But you did catch up on your summertime reading? Oldman: Yeah. (Laughs) I mean for these films, which are so arduous, and so big, do you just look to Mr. Nolan to go, “It’s your vision, it’s your scene, how do we best make it happen?” Gordon-Levitt: Absolutely, yeah. Oldman: Yeah. It’s very hard to talk about this film because there’s so many terms and reversals in it, but I mean, the first film thematically is about "How far is too far?" And the second films this interesting meditation about the rule of force versus the rule of law. To you, thematically, what’s this movie about? What does this movie have to say to people, the audience, more than just "It’s neat to dress up like a mammal and have your own helicopter?" Oldman: (Laughs) It might be that’s enough for some. Gordon-Levitt: (Laughs) It may very well. But I mean, your character is certainly heart sake about deception and your character is certainly troubled by the lack of effort to improve… Oldman: I think, probably, thematically it’s about actually finding out who you are. I think somewhere along the way he sort of loses himself and this whole thing of the outfit talks about you know, you’ve got to be, in a way you’ve got to be afraid of death to embrace life, you know, to really live. And he wasn’t really living in that sense. And I think with this, (Bruce Wayne) comes out of it. He gets a sense of worth, and just who he is as a man. I’m also curious Mr. Oldman, you’ve been involved in all three of the Batman films. Mr. Gordon-Levitt, you were involved in “Inception” along with Miss Cotillard and Mr. Hardy. Were there aBat-crew versus "Inception" basketball games ... Both: (Laugh) … poker tournaments, or did it just meld together into one happy family? Oldman: (Laughs: starts pinching Gordon-Levitt) Yeah, I mean, no, we used to … I used to just go like this to him and say, “I was in Batman 1 and 2,” and he would …. Gordon-Levitt: "Chris! Chris, Gary's hitting me!" Oldman: … and then he would punch me back and go, “Well, I was in ‘Inception’…” Both: (Laugh) I’m willing to bet it was slightly more mature than that. Both: (Laugh) These films pull off this incredible magic trick which is that they’re extraordinarily well received by audiences and they’re also critically acclaimed. What to you is the secret of that besides, of course, each of your work? Oldman: Talent! Talent with a capital T. Just commitment, focus, perfectionism, application, vision, choices, and you know, he has a great sense of storytelling, he kind of knows. He has a real sense of where to deliver, when to push it, when to pull back, what an audience would want right now, and this is what they all want later. He just sort of, it’s like, how does Miles Davis know how play a trumpet like that? He just does. Oldman: He just does. And I think it’s as simple as that. Gordon-Levitt: Yeah. Oldman: He’s just very good, isn’t he? Gordon-Levitt: He’s very good. I think also he respects his audience. Not every filmmaker, especially who makes big movies like this, does respect the audience. They’re just trying to kind of pander to somebody ...

    Aaaaaa, I love Amy Amy Adams Joins Bradley Cooper & Jeremy Renner In New David O. Russell Film We can' t have been the only one that felt that Amy Adams got a little cheated at the Oscars a few years back. Melissa Leo is a wonderful actress, and was very good in "The Fighter," but she wasn't even the Best Supporting Actress in that film, let alone among the nominees. That particular honor went to Adams, who was tremendous in David O. Russell's film, and if we'd had our way, it would have been her walking away with the statuette in February 2011, not Leo. But it looks like Adams is going to have another chance at glory in a Russell film, as The Hollywood Reporter brings news that the actress, soon to be seen in Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" and Zack Snyder's "Man Of Steel," has signed on to the director's latest picture. Formerly titled "American Bullshit," and now unsurprisingly untitled, the film stars Bradley Cooper as real-life conman Mel Weinberg, who teamed with the FBI for a massive corruption case, with Jeremy Renner (who replaced Christian Bale in the film yesterday) as the agent in charge of the case. Adams will play Max Gardner, Weinberg's co-conspirator and girlfriend, and it sounds like yet another part that'll let one of the most gifted actresses of her generation show that she's got far more range than we all suspected from her breakout rules in "Junebug" and "Enchanted." Megan Ellison's Annapurna Pictures is backing the film, with Sony set to distribute in the U.S, and filming gets underway in February, so we could see this as soon as next year's award season.
