'Date Movie' Premiere Pictures - Cast&Crew

Joss is in pic #16 with Aly and Nick is pic #25.

Is it just me or does Nick get prettier every day?
And is Alyson holding a dildo in picture two?

I'm sorry if pic 2 offends people i didn't even see that when i was scrolling through the pics. Mods feel free to delete if deemed NC17.

Gunn 2 N's | February 17, 07:39 CET

that's her purse, you yobs.

joss | February 17, 07:43 CET

I don't think we need to delete for adult content - g-d knows, we've linked to raunchier stuff. And I'm not sure this qualifies - it's not easy to even ID what that, um, object is.

(Added) And Joss says it's her purse. You yobs. Yeah. Thanks for demurking our dirty dirty minds. And how did you enjoy the flick?

I like Aly's look. Alexis looks more like Bond every day.

SoddingNancyTribe | February 17, 07:43 CET

It sure looks like one, but maybe it's just a handbag at a weird angle???

Thank you, Joss! ;-)

Hee. Joss said "yobs."

Um, Joss, sir, what does "yobs" mean?

pat32082 | February 17, 07:47 CET

Wow. I honestly didn't see that on the first time through. But, uhh... yeah. Odd angle, indeed. And, of course, everbody else looks damn fine.

Joss, you seem to be posting even more frequently lately (not complaining)... I know the tendency well. It's usually around that time that procrastishowering becomes a part of my daily routine.

Knuckleball | February 17, 07:48 CET

I don't know how Joss means it, but Australians use "yobs" to mean "yobos" - which is basically a meatheaded fool.

Also, Mr Whedon, get back to work! :-)

crossoverman | February 17, 07:50 CET

Alyson has Alexis there. Why would she need to carry around a not-a-purse thingy???

OK. There's no way we're going to avoid this thread getting sick.

Nebula1400 | February 17, 07:51 CET

Alexis should be Bond. What a handsome man. Everyone looks great - happy and healthy and having a good time.

Hey, when suggested, I also thought it looked like a plastic penis. Guess I'm a yob too.

electricspacegirl | February 17, 07:52 CET

Definitions of yob on the Web:

* bully: a cruel and brutal fellow

So we're all like, Rob Reiner in All in the Family? Ha, that was a funny sho--hey that was an insult!

[ edited by pat32082 on 2006-02-17 05:56 ]

pat32082 | February 17, 07:54 CET

And one further theory is that "yob" comes from "boy" written backwards. But I've honestly no idea how that might have transpired . . . Anyway, yob is apparently quite the in vogue word in the UK right now, with complaints of petty and not-so petty antisocial behavior on the rise, and Blair introducing all kinds of new laws to deal with the "problem," if such it is.

SoddingNancyTribe | February 17, 07:56 CET

Hee. I'm a bit of a purse whore. I own over 40, in many lovely colors. But I don't have one that'll do THAT. Dammit.

Great pics, thanks for posting!

cronopio | February 17, 07:58 CET

It's nice to see that Joss dresses up for these forays into public. =0 )

Ledfeather | February 17, 08:01 CET

It's his second use of "yobs" here on Whedonesque. :)

SlayerTV | February 17, 08:04 CET

Oh, thank you. A new picture of Nick. 8 ]

lycoming | February 17, 08:05 CET

Would you rather he go naked?

"Really, Officer. It's just a purse!"

Nebula1400 | February 17, 08:05 CET

Dear Gods of Kobol, that woman is gorgeous. And how good does Alexis look? And sweet, Joss and Nick and the "Mother" cast were all there. Awwwww.... Does this mean that there are Hollywood-types that really like each other?

I think I might actually have to go see this movie.

XanFan32 | February 17, 08:13 CET

Nebula1400 said Would you rather he go naked?

Wouldn't bother me! Smart guys turn me on.

cronopio | February 17, 08:13 CET

Oh, me too, but a grown man - even a hot grown man - out in public naked would kind of give me pause... I'd rather see his work than his - um - purse - in a setting like that.

Nebula1400 | February 17, 08:23 CET

that's her purse, you yobs.

Or affectionately around my house yobs is translated as: dickhead, bloody eediot, or silly bugger.

I swear your getting more Ozzie everyday Joss. ; D
Practising the lingo for filming Whedon Woman over here hey?
And in defence of JustNick, it does look like a fun sized plastic pal, what with page 4 having blow up companions and all.

ETA: God, how frickin gorgeous are A&A!! Damn, they should be arrested for being so bloody attractive! Shouldn't be legal.

nixygirl | February 17, 08:36 CET

Aly looks fantastic! And does she know how to pose for a picture or what? And she and Alexis look great together. I'm beginning to get the whole Alexis-should-be-James-Bond thing. Looks like Nick lost some weight. Also a great picture of him. Nice one of Joss and Aly too. So everybody just looks great. And now I'm just babbling like a monkey.

But I didn't notice Aly's special "purse". So at least I'm not a yob.

batmarlowe | February 17, 08:43 CET

Joss, don't you know that we think everything looks like a penis?!

You all look great in those pictures!! I love how Nick looks in his picture, he is looking mighty handsome! And yes ESG, I agree, with you on Alexis being Bond. That was the first thing that popped in my head when I saw that photo!!

Firefly Flanatic | February 17, 08:45 CET

I'm beginning to get the whole Alexis-should-be-James-Bond thing.

Not everyone who looks good in a tux should be James Bond! I love the casting of Daniel Craig because he's weather beaten and looks like he could kill a man.

I'm with Andrew, though - best James Bond was Timothy Dalton!

crossoverman | February 17, 08:56 CET

Joss comments on my post, i rock!!

Gunn 2 N's | February 17, 09:00 CET

Everyone looks gorgeous. Can I just say, Neil Patrick Harris is freakin' sexy. I've really never noticed, but man, that guy is hot! Oh, and that Joss guy isn't too shabby.

So Joss, tell us...how was the movie? It's not really something I would go see at the theatre, more like catching a rerun on TBS on a Saturday afternoon while I'm still in my PJs, too lazy to do anything else. But it's Aly!!

Harmalicious | February 17, 09:40 CET

Joss - get with the times, man. We all know yobs has changed to chav now. Well, those of us in Britian Land do. Get somebody to educate you when you're next here, in the far far away future (er, again with the not stalking you).

Okay, so this sounds slightly more with the snark than it's supposed to. I think WARREN has infected my BRAIN.

gossi | February 17, 10:03 CET

That is one creamy dreamsicle of a gal. Whoo! And Alexis* just oozes gorgeousness. They look very happy together, leading me to deduce that love, and being in it, makes you purty. Although, Nick's looking pretty scrumptious ala carte.

Nice tie, Mr. Fendendo!

Anyone else think Cobie Smulders could be cast as Caroline Dhavernas' slightly older sister?

*(Now when is it he's going to be on HIMYM, exactly?)

Wiseblood | February 17, 10:10 CET

Hey Yoss, got a yob for me?

Sorry, couldn't reyist.

Willowy | February 17, 10:16 CET

I see Aly is going to be making the talk show rounds: On 2/20 she'll be hanging out with Ellen Degeneres, and on 2/28 she makes a red-eye appearance on Carson Daly.

It's cool seeing Buffy and Angel people on these shows where they get a chance to let loose a little, but it also makes me reflect on how the Serenifly cast got no late or early-afternoon TV love. It's just not right. There's nothing happening in the televisual universe at 1 a.m. (coincidentally, about the time I can't make myself go to sleep and wind up here) that I'm convinced Nathan Fillion couldn't improve just by showing up.

Wiseblood | February 17, 10:48 CET

Lol. I think the "yobs" comment was called for. I mean who carries their dildo around with them at premiere events with media taking happy snaps at every turn?

babycheeses | February 17, 11:13 CET

I know that as a good geek girl, I'm not supposed to care about these things, but I *LOVED* Aly's dress! Who made it?! She looks stunning in it!

Everyone looks sexy as h-ll. Planning on seeing Date Movie Saturday!

Arielle | February 17, 11:17 CET

I've added an IESB link to the subject which has video interviews with Aly, Nick (and the one with Joss we saw earlier in the week).

Simon | February 17, 11:19 CET

The relationship between a woman and her purse is truly a private and beautiful thing.

Plus that's so sweet that they went to the premiere. I always think it's nice when cast and crew get along and there's not seething hatred with random attempts at killing one another. Pipe bombs thrown into trailers and exploding catering tables. It's like a microcosm for the future possibility of world peace, or that could be the crack pipe talking.

Dovil | February 17, 12:03 CET

I mean who carries their dildo around with them at premiere events with media taking happy snaps at every turn?

Well, at the London premiere of Serenity, I bumped into Michelle somebody-or-other on the red carpet from Big Brother UK. She's famous for having sex on live TV. So, you know, we win - we don't need no dildos 'ere.

--not yob whedon

gossi | February 17, 12:05 CET

Smart guys turn me on, too, cronopio. Intelligence is the greatest aphrodesiac. Although Alexis is a good argument for sheer good looks being at the top of the list. He and Aly looked just wonderful. I hope they are (and stay!) as happy as they look together!

And thanks, Joss, for being fashion forward and aware and letting us know what's the what.

SangChaud | February 17, 12:28 CET

Dildo handbags are so in. ~~Joss should start a reality TV show about them.~~ I crossed the line with that joke.

gossi | February 17, 13:03 CET

The only thing funnier than JustNick thinking her purse was a dildo was Gunn 2 NN's apologising for linking to the dildo purse!

That is hilarious! I love you dirty-minded yet extremely well-mannered and considerate whedonesquers!

(Can I say dildo? Twice, nay three times in my post?)

I apologise.

Xane | February 17, 13:12 CET

You don't want to say dildo 5 times in a row...

gossi | February 17, 13:54 CET

Not sure about the yob/chav revisionism. Maybe we could have a clear cut off date before which you were a yob after which a chav. I'd hate all these idjets to be wandering around with identity issues.

Very unfortunate angle on the purse, side on i'm sure it'd be totally un-dildoey.

Apart from that tho' smoking hot ! Aly so purty. Even the guys look in good shape (Alexis has so got to do some kind of British Naval officer part, he's totally got the kind of piercing thousand yard stare down and we know he can manage the accent).

Saje | February 17, 14:16 CET

Officer and a Wesley 4: Love You Long Time In Space. Nathan didn't get the space hooker part, bitch bitch bitch.

gossi | February 17, 15:04 CET

Fade In

Wesley strides, beuniformed, into a plastic cup factory where Illyria stands working on quality control. He sweeps her off her feet to the tune of the Fruity Oaty Bar song.

Pan back to reveal ... the whole thing is in space ! Yes, it's a sp-factory for sp-cups !

Somewhere in the background we see Fillion showing some leg in vain, desperate to turn a trick.

Fade Out. Scene.

Saje | February 17, 15:37 CET

Hee! Okay, so after the 'Serenity looks like a penis!' debacle, we now have the 'Purse looks like a dildo!' follow-up. Wonder which innocent item my lovely fellow whedonesquers will next deduce a masked phallic shape in ;-).

On a less strange note: I have to agree with the general "wow, everyone looks nice in those pictures" sentiment. Pretty people. Yes sir.

GVH | February 17, 15:52 CET

Those are some nice pics. Alyson looks amazing! She does seem to get more beautiful every day. Of course, the guys aren't too shabby either :)

supersymetry | February 17, 16:08 CET

Now I want Joss to write a series about chavs. Not a big step from demons and teenagers, but the language and the general un-wittiness would be an interesting challenge.

futile | February 17, 16:14 CET

Alexis totally has that old Hollywood look. I would love to see some black & white photos of him looking all classic H-wood.

Sister Spooky | February 17, 16:26 CET

Got to agree with Keith G. Alexis is a bit too pretty to be James Bond, who really should be a bit rougher looking that he's normally portrayed. The Daniel Craig casting has me enthused.

rbt | February 17, 16:37 CET

Wow. Call me crazy, but Nicky's the prettiest boy there. YES, beating Alexis. He looks great.

numbereleven | February 17, 16:38 CET

I dunno bobtaylor and Keith G, late season 3 and onwards Wesley looked like he could handle himself. It's all about what the actor puts in the eyes. That and stubble.

Dalton was good (maybe 2nd best Bond tho' Brosnan might just edge him out) but come on, it has to be Big Sean all the way. The man oozed killer, he moved like a panther and could turn from cheeky rogue to hard eyed psycho in an instant. Plus, wasn't Bond's dad Scottish ? So (unusually) even the accent fit the part (hey, most Russian submarine commanders have Scots accents, little known fact that).

Saje | February 17, 16:52 CET

Any man who chillingly delivers the line "I'll take away your bucket" who would be an ideal candidate to play Bond. Scruffy Wes as 007!

Simon | February 17, 16:54 CET

I must give vent to my girliness and beseech Nicky to put on his specs. He looks so incredibly cute with them on (like at the 'Buffy Wraps' footage on the season 7 DVDs). Wear 'em, Nicky!

swanjun | February 17, 17:03 CET

Yes, Alexis could do a great Bond. He's got the suave, he's got the dash, he's got the down and dirty.
And hey everyone, lay off Joss' clothing sense. No doubt he was pounding away at the keyboard when he realized the time and raced out to the premiere. Or something like that.

Lioness | February 17, 17:34 CET

Hee! Y'all crack me up, you gutter-minded yobs. ;D

I'm torn between wanting to see Alexis do comedy and wanting to see him do something really heavy and scruffy Wesleyish. Right now I just want to see him in something, anything--so long as it's good. I can't wait for his HIMYM episodes to air!

cheesygirl | February 17, 18:24 CET

Wonder which innocent item my lovely fellow whedonesquers will next deduce a masked phallic shape in ;-)

Joss’ pen.

miranda | February 17, 18:48 CET

Joss's pen wears a mask ?

Oh, wait, nevermind.

Saje | February 17, 18:51 CET

Do you think Joss knows where his pen-is?

I am so immature. I blame Joss. And his pen.

DejaThoris | February 17, 19:50 CET

I bow before Joss's pen.

Thinking about rephrasing that.

Saje | February 17, 19:52 CET

So, is "yob" pronounced with a short o, like job? Or with a long o, like Job? Never heard the word before, and suddenly I've encountered it several times this week!

pillboxed | February 17, 19:58 CET

Short on the 'o', long on the mindless violence, vandalism and car theft.

Saje | February 17, 20:03 CET

I bow before Joss's pen.

Thinking about rephrasing that.

Hehe, I'd be thinking about rephrasing that as well.

Glad to see that wackiness has again hit us where we didn't see it coming.

GVH | February 17, 20:12 CET

Oh my G-d! It totally looks just like a dildo! I mean, I read the thread first, then looked at the pics, and wow it really does....ahem, excuse me.

Also, I love the name Cobie Smulders!

And: 'yob', like 'job', BritSlang (tm) for thug, loudmouth, etc. Just my two cents from a BritRobot.

The Devil's Robot | February 17, 20:30 CET

Do you think Joss knows where his pen-is?

I believe it was last seen in the same jar Mel Brooks keeps his spaceballs.

(in the UK we have antisocial behaviour orders for yobs like me.)

DejaThoris - you made me laugh so hard I nearly cried.

miranda | February 17, 20:49 CET

You know, this brings all manner of new interpretation for the phrase, "The Pen-is mightier than the sword." We need to send Joss to the UN stat!
The phallicity of this topic is phallacious at best.

Miranda, I live to serve :D

DejaThoris | February 17, 21:05 CET

Short on the 'o', long on the mindless violence, vandalism and car theft.

This post is lovelier that jebus.

gossi | February 17, 21:37 CET

Ehy guys here a link that make clear that it is really a purse that Alyson is holding :)

rua1412 | February 18, 02:54 CET

Nick is so pretty!

MySerenity | February 18, 03:24 CET

So John Clarke says - Pen and ink is wit's plough.

So, if a pen is phallic and you wit is your mind. That would kinda mean we're being mind f......
Yea...errr...let's not go there.

nixygirl | February 18, 03:36 CET

LOL. Of Purses, Phallic stuff and where Joss' Pen is. I love this site.

non sequitur | February 18, 05:09 CET

For the record, the movie is terrible, but I did get a chuckle out of seeing Tom Lenk play Frodo in a LOTR spoof (despite the scene itself being pretty laugh-free).

The Dark Shape | February 18, 05:27 CET

Tom Lenk actually played (spoofy) Frodo?

Remember not too long ago when he had Hobbit Hair? Wow, that is too funny.

Willowy | February 18, 05:47 CET

So what's the derivation of "chav"? I loves me some etymology.

batmarlowe | February 18, 06:19 CET

The term "chav" comes from the latin chavus maximus which basically means "extremely annoying waste of space and oxygen" ... or something along those lines ... ;)

WhedonTrivia | February 18, 19:04 CET

Thanks, VWAG!
