Entertainment Link-Off: So Super

I’m doing an ELO? Yeah, Jackie’s busy this weekend so I’ve drawn in to replace him this week. So let’s make up for a lack of Jackie with Christina Hendricks. So when does Man Men come back?

Meta crossover promotion thingy of the year? Abed from NBC’s Community breaks down the 2011 Best Comedy Emmy award and picks a winner. (Variety)

After the jump, the worst actress in the world, all about Super 8 and the best of E3.

I linked to a story about Slate using the TomatoMeter to determine the best and worst directors, actors and actresses in the world. Well, the worst actress in the world, Jennifer Love Hewitt, has responded to the story. (PopWatch/EW)

The biggest career killer of them all, even bigger than starring in a series of romantic comedies, is being a Bond girl. The original Bond girls became legends. Now, they’re often hurting for work. (Business Insider)

The Spielberg-produced and Abrams-directed Super 8 hits theatres this weekend. I’m actually stoked for this one because of the combination of Spielberg, Abrams and Kyle Chandler. Also, Ebert loves it. (Roger Ebert)

And the pairing of Spielberg and Abrams gave Andy Greenwald an idea. What if up-and-coming young directors were paired with legends in a mentoring program? (Grantland)

For Super 8, Paramount is trying something a little different on the marketing front. (Wall Street Journal)

Ever heard of the World’s Most Exclusive Website? It’s a real site and you aren’t likely to be allowed in it. Hell, even I can’t get in… Actually, that’s not much of a shock in my case… (Mashable)

Does Jackie ever do celebrity gossip in this thing? I don’t remember. Anyway, here’s a story about the anonymous NFL play that says he’s having an affair with Kim Kardashian. (Popeater)

After the Weiner scandal, this Kardashian thing is a nice reminder that women get into sex scandals too. Here’s a list of female politicians that have been caught in a tough spot. (The New Yorker)

I do know that Jackie is a huge basketball fine. So why not run this story about Gilbert Arenas live tweeting his blind date? He’s a pretty funny guy but I don’t think she’d see the humour of this. (With Leather)

As always with my linkdumps, we close with the lists. First, it’s the ten best movie trailer songs. Can’t argue at all with #1 and #2 on this list. (Seattle Weekly)

Today’s second list is a look at the best recurring characters in SNL history. (Guyism)

It’s time for YouTuberry. (I really need to come up with a proper spelling for that.) First, it’s a video compilation of the 100 greatest movie threats of all-time.

The highlight of this year’s E3? This I’m On A Boat music video using clips from game footage debuted at E3.

Or if boats aren’t your thing, maybe you’d prefer this live action teaser trailer for Gears of War.
