It’s that time of year again: Mr. Skin counts down the Top 20 Movie Nude Scenes of 2007. Marisa Tomei takes the top slot (that’s punny, right?) for her work in Before the Devil Knows We’re Dead. The Mr. Skin crew were either really impressed with how well she’s aged since My Cousin Vinny, or they just couldn’t resist the alliterative treat that is “topless Tomei-toes.” I know I can’t.

Matt Dentler traces Frownland’s road to victory: “It was almost precisely a year ago that I fished Ronnie’s film out of the submissions, put it on, and was instantly hypnotized. For all those filmmakers out there who feel you have to have “connections” and “legacy” to get attention or noticed, Frownland is proof against that.”
Vulture points to an MP3 on Zeon’s Music Blog of “Teen Horniness is Not a Crime”, sung by Sarah Michelle Gellar in character as Southland Tales‘ ambitious porn star Krysta Now. Zeon’s verdict is that it’s “not very good [but] it’s supposed to be a joke anyway so maybe it is intentionally crappy.” Personally, I don’t understand how anyone can resist a lyrical couplet like “‘Cause these statistics do not lie/Just ask those nerds who shot up Columbine/They weren’t getting laid/No.”
I’m very conflicted about the YWY trailers. I WANT to like them, but just can’t. It’s as if they wrote down “Make sure to kill Chris Thilk’s excitement completely” as a business goal. If that’s the case, then mission accomplished.
We’ve had a bit of trouble getting this episode to go through the iTunes feed, so we hope this re-post will fix the problem. The original post, with episode description and embedded player, is here.
