“Some people stand in the darkness/Afraid to step into the light…”

Sing it with us!

David Chokachi, aka Baywatch’s Cody Madison, took part in Sunday’s first annual "Project Save Our Surf" Surfathon at Ocean Park Beach in Santa Monica.

We have a newfound affinity for David after watching VH1’s entrancing Confessions of a Teen Idol, where we discovered David is actually a very talented actor and a charming, charismatic man.

Who knew? We were always too blinded by the pretty to notice.

Christopher Atkins, the star of 1980's The Blue Lagoon, smiled for the cameras as he posed with two butterfaced, body-painted models on the “Game Day at the Playboy Mansion” red carpet on Sunday.

We were a little too young to be on Atkins’ bus back in the Lagoon days but we’re addicted to VH1’s Confessions of a Teen Idol and he is the coolest guy ever.

Those focus group ladies were right; we would love to see him step back into leading man roles. He seems like a great guy; mellow, down to earth, smart, honest and a wonderful dad.

Law Abiding Citizen See It or Skip It

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

The Boys Are Back See It or Skip It

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Jennifer's Body See it or Skip it

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

See It or Skip It: World's Greatest Dad

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
