Robert Pattinson makes People magazine's Best Dressed list for 2012

Robert Pattinson makes People magazine's Best Dressed list for 2012

The issue is out tomorrow nationwide but Rob was so damn dashing in that blue Gucci suit, I'll find any excuse to post it in HQ.



Reuters reports that Rob was among the following Best Dressed Men in the annual issue:

Among men, honors went to actors Andrew Garfield, Brad Pitt, Colin Firth, Robert Pattinson, Chris and Liam Hemsworth and singer Jay-Z.

I'm hardly surprised. Put him in a suit and he owns it. I can't wait for his BD2promo sprint. It being the final one for the series, I'm hoping for many, many sensational choices.

Back to the suit and the MAN. GAWD.



*keening*



He thinks he's on a runway, doesn't he. He must. Look at that strut and swagger. A natural.



I'm hearing angels singing now. Are you?



Head to toe perfection.

I'm ending this post on SmileyRob because he'll still give great wattage even when being Mr. Smolder Seductive in the suit.

Robert Pattinson "frequently dismissed yet giving the best performance of the year": Cosmopolis praise continues

Robert Pattinson "frequently dismissed yet giving the best performance of the year": Cosmopolis praise continues



I keep seeing great write-ups about Cosmopolis post-release and wanted to share a couple with you because of the Rob praise and discussion of Eric Packer.

Indiewire/PressPlay wrote an article about the language in Cosmopolis and here's what they said about Rob:

Even though its tone is resigned and mordantly funny and its pace is slow, Cosmopolis is a thrillingly spare, controlled work. But you have to be willing to adapt to its sleepwalking mood and to its performances, which occur within such a narrow emotional bandwidth that at one point I pictured an orchestra conductor handing a violinist a Stradivarius with one string and saying, “You can make beautiful music with this, trust me.” Every actor rises to the challenge. The movie features one bizarre knockout supporting turn after another: Juliette Binoche as a lover who interrogates Eric after fucking him; Gadon’s Elise, whose beyond-her-years cynicism is a bulwark against emotional collapse; Durand’s security guy Torval, who’s got more didja-know tidbits than Johnny the Shoeshine Guy on Police Squad! but ultimately comes to seem like just another lost soul blustering through chaos. Giamatti’s all-out anguish in the finale almost steals the picture from Pattinson. 

But the star never loses his grip. I never would have guessed from the Twilight movies that he was capable of a performance this intelligent, despairing, and honest; at his best he reminded me of James Spader’s character in sex, lies and videotape, a smug bastard who intellectualizes his selfishness into faux-philosophy. If Pattinson gets nominated for awards for Cosmopolis, the clip should be the scene where Eric carries on a high-flown conversation while enduring the longest prostate exam in history, an invasion of an asshole’s asshole. But there’s a real person beneath Eric’s shellacked surface, and when it finally cracks—in a surprisingly tender exchange with a rapper (Gouchy Boy) grieving for his dead hero and his own mortality—the character’s pain feels real, and true.

It's a great read. Click HERE to read in its entirety.

Film School Rejects also named Cosmopolis the most relevant movie of the year! Rob isn't specifically mentioned because it's more analytical of the actual film and meaning. I enjoyed this excerpt:

But if Cosmopolis is an alienating experience, that’s because it’s about the alienation of contemporary experience. Eric’s limo is a model of media convergence not unlike a smart phone in that its function permeates well beyond its archaic name (“phone” is hardly the appropriate term for what we use today, just as Eric and Kinsky lament the stupidity of other mainstay terms like “airplane” and “computer”), and also provides a shelter for the most basic human actions, from penetration to urination. Eric has all the access to the world’s information at his fingertips, yet he is notably separated from “the world” whateverthatmeans, seemingly privileged with a legion of followers who come to him without ever visibly arriving or leaving. Bookstores and diners are not the only places of leisure for Eric. That Eric’s shoes rarely touch the asphalt of the street (until the final act) signals that the material world itself has become an escape from the “reality” he’s manufactured as his working life. 

This alienation gives Eric (and his many passengers) the opportunity to experience lived life simultaneously with a critique and analysis of it. Strangely, DeLillo and Cronenberg make a compelling case that the space of the one-percent does not so much manufacture Romneyesque out-of-touch-ness as it potentially provides the ideal container for intellectual inquiry: Eric has omnipotent access to “real life,” but is distanced enough from it to engage in critique (I’m not sure how much this move elevates the bezerkly rich or denigrates academics). With alienation comes immediacy: Kinsky, without an ounce of worry about the dangerous puncture of reality seeping in, is able to comment on the riots outside as they occur. When the anarchists’ protest finally comes crashing down onto Eric’s roof, the scene’s mutedness is maddening and disappointing (especially in contrast to the depiction of this scene in Cosmopolis’s advertising campaign, which finds on-the-ground anarchy far more exciting and marketable). And that’s the point. Cosmopolis is a quiet film, not because it’s scant on dialogue (hardly), but because it deliberately obliterates any semblance of atmosphere. The sound, or absence of it, that’s deafening in Eric’s car is also the sound of the blog post, the online bank transfer, the scroll of the stock quote.

But the star continues to get his praise. Just this morning I saw this from Screened:

It’s that moment that kicks off the last leg of the film, which veers deep into destruction and desolation so resolute that I won’t begin to try to enumerate its facets here. But it is terrifying, not only for how real and of-the-moment it feels but in how much Pattinson invests in the role. This is the kind of role that demands a range that only a great actor working with a great director can pull off, and every eye rolling critic of Pattinson’s more famous works is going to have to reassess after this as his fanbase recoils in horror to see their icon throw himself into the deep end of the most negative human experiences. Here is someone, frequently dismissed, giving what I feel is easily the best performance of the year.

My heart swells.

With the film still trickling into other markets, we see more reviews pop up.

How NOT to comment 101 & A Q&A with the ROBsessed Bloggers

Dear ROBsessed Readers,

 At ROBsessed we don't censor comments.

We don't moderate, we don't wait for comments to fall in to our mailboxes for approval.

We very rarely delete comments.

This blog was started because our comments were censored.

We believe in freedom of speech as long as you observe proper crassness :)

So here we go:



- Please don't bully people. If you don't agree with them try to convince them. Don't tell them to shut up or leave the blog. It's everyone's blog, not just yours.

- Please don't abuse our good will by posting hateful messages towards Robert Pattinson or his costars, friends. Please don't abuse our good will by posting NC-17 rated stuff. YOU might think it's funny but others don't want to read about your sexual habits, fantasies, thoughts IN DETAIL. Suggestion is okay, we use a LOT of suggestion as well but don't be crude. Before posting think about this: "Would you say those things to a perfect stranger?" if no then please don't post it in the comments.

Don't let Rob go:

 

 We received an email with the below questions and thought they were valid. Here are our replies:

 

 1. Are we expected to immediately acquiesce if someone finds a comment inappropriate?

ROBsessed: No, of course not. The comments are for debating. If someone thinks a comment is inappropriate he/she can voice her opinion and explain why they think the comment is inappropriate. A healthy debate can solve the problem. Not bullying someone to change their mind.

2. IS Rob's personal life completely off-limits on this site? If so, how do we justify the conversations about bulges, underwear, the fit of his trousers, and "skipping off to the DR"?

ROBsessed: No, Rob's personal life is not off-limits. Especially in the comments. We as the bloggers choose what to post but in the comments you can discuss whatever you like.

3. Is Kristen a persona non grata now and never to be mentioned again? 

ROBsessed: It's a personal choice. This is a Rob blog so we talk about Rob. You can talk about anything you want :)

4. Are we not allowed to ponder where he is in the world or what he's doing? 

ROBsessed: I don't know about you but we ponder that all the time :)

5. Are we not permitted to say we read something crazy and want to share it and invite others' opinions? 

ROBsessed: Once again, you can talk about anything you like. If that crazy thing you read is about Rob, you can send it to the mods and we can post it if it's blog material.

6. I'm honestly perplexed as to where the blog is headed. Is this only a film blog now? 

ROBsessed: Does it seem like only a film blog? We still post photos of Rob out and about doing the mundanest things. We post anything/everything about Rob if we think they have merit. This blog is about Rob. Everything he does. If he decides to go skinny dipping tomorrow we'll be more than happy to post that as well. (Start the prayer group now!)

So I won't be selfish. I'll share some of the ones that made me laugh and smile and sigh and adore him even more.

Robert Pattinson's producer for Queen of the Desert drops a hint on filming time frame

Robert Pattinson's producer for Queen of the Desert drops a hint on filming time frame

I feel like I'm watching a horse race...

We had Mission: Blacklist in the lead until The Rover pulled ahead only to be set back by Queen of the Desert from far behind but in the final moments, The Rover wins by a nose!

Queen of the Desert producer has an update on when the film will be shot.:


The Rover filming dates are currently Jan-March 2013 so we'll see how this all rolls out. Rob is not the lead in The Rover or Queen of the Desert so we don't know how much time he's required on set. We're going to have to wait and see.

Another cool tweet from the producer talking about his two stars:
