Winona attended last June 25 an academy salute to oscar winning filmmaker Hal Ashby at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, in Beverly Hills. I added some HQ pictures of her (thanks to MaryJane) with awesome screenwriter Diablo Cody (which I’m praying to wrote Noni’s next movie, hah).

I added 30 new Saturday Night Live stills in our gallery. If you don’t remember, Winona host a SNL episode late in May 2002. Sketches include “Jimmy Carter In Cuba,” “Celebrity Jeopardy!,” “Uncle Mike & Uncle Danny,” “Botox”, “Bear Researchers,” “Girl Next Door: The Search For a Playboy Centerfold,” “Love-Ahs,” “Mango, Winona, and Moby Go Shoplifting,” and “Farewell To Will Ferrell.”

Moby performed “We Are All Made Of Stars” and “South Side.”

Here you can find transcript of her presentation

Saturday Night Live (2001): Promotional Stills

By GEORGE HADLEY-GARCIA

The new “Star Trek” movie, with its tagline “The Future Begins,” may indeed begin a new phase in the careers of two of its stars, Winona Ryder and Chris Pine.

Pine is a fast-rising actor of 28 with solid stage and screen experience behind him. Playing Captain James T. Kirk, he is stepping into William Shatner’s large shoes — large in terms of fan following and Shatner’s notorious ego.

“I could be laughed off the screen or have my career blown seriously off course for this,” says Pine, a son of actors, whose grandmother Anne Gwynne was a noted character actress during Hollywood’s golden age.

Also, this “Star Trek” film, which offers audiences the beginnings of Kirk, Spock and company, will no doubt be compared to another franchise-origins picture that did well with audiences and critics, “The Dark Knight,” about early Batman (it won a posthumous Best Supporting Actor Oscar for Heath Ledger as The Joker). (more…)

Yes, there will be a sequel to the 1988 cult dark comedy “Heathers,” starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater.

Ryder is pretty excited, because it means appearing in a follow-up to the film that made her famous oh-so-many years ago. She tells Us Magazine:

“Whatever you hear, there is a sequel in the works. I swear to God. But for some reason the writer Dan Waters and director Michael Lehman don’t want to talk about it. I’ve been wanting to do a sequel forever. There is a story, and Christian [Slater] has agreed to come back as a kind of Obi-Wan character.”

In the photo: Winona Ryder and her “Heathers” costar Christian Slater were the Kristen Stewart/Robert Pattinson of their day. Here they are the Oscars in 1989.

Samantha noticed our gallery was missing screencaptures of the film “Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael”, and kindly send us 600+ screencaptures, plus DVD menus. Thank you!

This is one of my favorite old-school Winona movies. In this movie, she’s Dinky, a 15 years old girl, adopted as a baby, who thinks she’s the abandoned daughter of Roxy Carmichael, a minor movie star who left town for Hollywood fifteen years ago after giving birth to a baby girl out of wedlock. Watch the trailer.
