Samuel L Jackson
The Site:
Design: A star🍨k, blocky look centreﷺd around a traditional blog layout. 3/5
Content : Fulsome. The ജnews is regular, and there are well-maintained stashes of photographs and interviews. 3/5
Star Input: It’s official, but it doesn’t look like Big Sa🅷m contributes to the𒁃 site. 1/5
Badassness: The no-messing layout and banner pic of Nick Fury keep Jackson’s rep in tact. 4/5
Sonny Landham
The Site:
Design: Hello, turn of the century internet! The Predator star’s ho꧃m⛄epage is an old-school setup with garish fonts and, brilliantly, a big picture of a knife behind his name. 2/5
Content: The regular mix of biography and filmography, interrupted by a shockin𓃲g section detailing Landham’s ongoing legal battle surrounding his wrongful imprisonment for domestic abuse charges in the 1990s. Sad but fascinating. 3/5
Star Input: Given thꦫe nature of the legal stuff, the site is very personal. 5/5
Creepiness: Every time you load the site a recording of Landham doing his famous booming laugh from Predator erupts from yo🐓ur speakers. 4/5
Matthew McConaughey
The Site:
Design: The toothy Texan star’s homepage is a dense and slightly cluttered affair, with the standard selection of bios and back catalogue packed int👍o a flash-heavy package. 3/5
Content: Very much run of the mill, and not very up toไ dꦑate. The actor himself last checked in back in January last year... 2/5
Star Input: McCo🌄naughey has an 🅘all-but abandoned journal on the site, and there are personal pics of him and the family. Looks like good intentions, paving the way to barely any content. 2/5
Grin intensity: The galleries over overpoweringly full of big, big grinning. 4/5
Val Kilmer
The Site:
Design : Dated, with boxy menus and a cꦰheesy pic of the one-time hunky star, but usable. 2/5
Content: There’s a nod to Kilmer’s successful past, but the site’s main purpose seems to be to promote the actor’s upcoming🙈 Mary Baker Eddy and Mark Twain biopic. Tough sell. 2/5
Star Input: Val drops in to offer occasional hellos, and it has the flavour of a star🌱tup filmm🥀aker trying to get the word out about his upcoming movie. 3/5
Oddness: Oh that’s not gone away. The latest Note From Val is about movie nudity – specifically about how the star has never gone naked on film, because he ‘has always had an awareness that nudity is inappropriate.’ You tell ‘em. 5/5
Donald Glover
The Site:
Design: The tumblr blog of Community star and🐠 comedian Glover uses sharp black-on-white font for a vintage fashion-mag feel. 4/5
Content: Shoes. Pictures. Clocks. Stuff people have said. It’s a catch-🤪all personal account with no specific direction. 3/5
Star Input: Pure Glover. 5/5
Hotness: Glover has you covered, with a category simple called ‘sex’ full of hot girls. 5/5
Sean Connery
The Site:
Design: Amateur. It fills only a corner of the screen, is full🍃 of boxy frames and has a big picture of Sir Sean’s face in the corner. 2/5
Content: So-so filmography and bio, but the best bit is definitely the revolving door of positive fan corresponde𒆙nce on 🐽the front page. Classy. 2/5
Star Input: Connery has penned a heartfelt hello letter which sits on the w𒁏elcome page, but the site isn’t very up-to-date, and we’d be surprise if the act𝓀or remembers it’s there. 2/5
Tastefulness: Oh yes, a link to his wife’s gallery page takes care of that. 3/5
James Woods
The Site:
Design: Pretty bas🐷ic – there’s a landing page which links through to a blꦬog and a couple of galleries. 2/5
Content: It looks like Woods started up the site with som🐼e enthusias🍎m but has never fleshed it out. The blog is about cycling in (actual) woods, but the galleries give a glimpse into the actor’s working life. 3/5
Star Input: It looks like it’s all James Woods&r📖squo; work, in a ‘Wow, Jimmy, I can really tell your parent’s didn’t help with your homework at all’ kind of way. 5/5
Unglamorous hobbies: Hollywood wildman James Woods blogs about photography and cycling? What? 4/5
Robin Williams
The Site:
Design: A straight-up blog, with a no-messing and easy to-use black backgro༺und design. 3/5
Content: Patchily updated news strea🐼m, with some video content and ads for Williams꧃’ latest show thrown in. 3/5
Star Input: Nothing direct, but there are plenty 𓆏of inter☂views and backstage bits and pieces. 3/5
Hyperactivity: Not what we’d hoped – the site doesn’t capture Williams’ machine-gun style. 2/5
Sylvester Stallone
The Site:
Design: Simple Wordpress-ish🌟 layout, bolstered by the fact there’s a massi✤ve picture of Rocky in the middle. 3/5
Content: It leads off with a r✤egularly updated news feed, and includes sections on Sly’s movie, art and fitnꦜess work. 3/5
Star Input: It look𒉰s minimal – a webmaster runs the blog, and there&rsജquo;s no diary to be seen. 2/5
Steroidal enhancement: We don’t know what you’re talking about. 5/5
James Gunn
The Site:
Design: The homepage of cult director and Dawn Of The Dead writer Gunn is a basic blog-with-extra-bits, withꦇ a thrown-together 💜feel. 2/5
Content: The page has feeds drawn from Gunn’s Twitter and Facebook accounts, and the news feed is fairly regularly updated and focused on the man’s work.🌠 Solid, but for fans only. 3/5
Star Input: Gunn writes the blog himself, giving th🧸e site a personal edge.🌳 4/5
Anti-crime stance: The trailer for Gunn’s new film Super means the page has this in spades. SHUT UP, CRIME. 5/5
