Roommate Wanted

Alexa Vega stars in Roommate Wanted as Janie, who gets into a fight (and loses). She winds up tied to the cabinets in the kitchen by Dee (Spencer Grammer), who won the fight.

After spitting in Dee's face, Janie gets her mouth gagged with a teeny weeny piece of tape.

Although you never see her feet, according to the entry on Brian's Page, Janie is barefoot during this scene. I haven't seen the entire movie beyond this scene.

Rest assured, Janie soon gets her revenege. You can see this clip right here.

The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

I posted these 'caps from The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (also known as Three Burials) because, in these waning days of January 2023, it's only fitting that we present a scene with...January.

January Jones plays the wife of a border patrol agent who's been taken hostage in her home.

Tommy Lee Jones, who also directed (and is not releated), is the one who's tying her up.

He even puts a blanket over January--which makes sense. Because, seeing how she *IS* January, she must be pretty cold. Sorry, couldn't resist.

January's character survives her chilling ordeal.

Late August, Early September

Late August, Early September is a French film that was released 25 years ago in 1998. It's a drama about relationships set in France.

But it also had this wonderful scene involving the lead actress, Virginie Ledoyen.

Completely naked, she's playing a consensual bondage game with her boyfriend, who comes in and unties her. She's been bound hand and foot with rope.

While I wish it wasn't shot so tightly (we never get a shot of her bound bare feet), I still love the whole consensual nature of the bondage, here.

I also love the casual chat they have while she's untying her feet.

When we finally see her bare feet, they're untied. But I still adore this scene overall.

It's just very nicely done! It's one of my all-time favorite scenes.

MST3K Lives!

I've just recently discovered that Mystery Science Theater 3000 has been revived once more. It has a new co-host, Emily Marsh (pictured above). The above shot is from the episode The Batwoman (a B-movie released in 1968; not to be confused with the DC Comics superhero).

Emily is supposed to be the helpless captive of the robots, who plan to experiment on her--but the whole scene is played for laughs, as Emily keeps lowering her bound hands from time to time. You can see the new season, which is behind a paywall, right here.

Police Woman

Angie Dickinson starred as Pepper Anderson in the TV series Police Woman back in the 1970s.

In the episode Brainwashed, she goes undercover as a reporter in a mental insitution that's been accused of mistreating teenagers.

When her cover gets blown, Pepper is forced to strip off her clothes and put on a hospital gown. Then she's tied down to a bed in one of the rooms.

They want to know what she knows, so they subject her to flashing lights and loud noises. But fear not, for Pepper lives to police another day. She's rescued.

You can see this scene, which stars the Policing Princess Pepper, right here.

Pacific Rim

Pacific Rim was a vastly entertaining film from director Guillermo del Toro about giant monsters--known as Kaiju--and the big robots--Jaegers--that fought them.

Rinko Kikuchi stars as the assistant leader of the Jaeger team who has to fight Jaeger pilot wannabe Charlie Hunnam in a match as part of him proving his worthiness for the job.

These massive robots are piloted by a two-person team--which already sounds a bit outdated for this "futuristic" flick, given that the real-life American military is switching over to unpiloted drones.

But never mind the nit-picking, this film is still a great deal of fun, overall.

And the fact that they got Rinko to go barefoot for a scene is a nice little bonus. But, for the love of God, avoid the shitty sequel.

Drums

Leslie, my latest snoop (when will they ever learn?), decides to see what are in these strange looking drums that are located down the beach. You can find out what happens (three guesses what it is!) to her right here.

Note: the picture I'm using is from Midnight Fear.

Various & Sundry

It's been a while since we've had a Various & Sundry update, and so here it is: Actress Margaret Qualley in between takes on the set of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

Emma Stone gives The Pose while relaxing in the grass.

Brigitte Bardot hangs out on a flight of steps. This was taken by Mark Shaw.

Victoria's Secrets model Taylor Hill steps out sans shoes.

Kristen Stewart just hangs out on a sunny afternoon.

And Cara Delevingne walks with a friend.

Palmetto

Would you believe that Palmetto is 25 years old this year? It hardly looks it.

Gina Gershon, who is equally as famous for her bondage scenes in Bound, is also bound here, as well.

But in Palmetto, Gershon is barefoot while bound, which I like very, very much.

She's very well bound--and gagged--with duct tape for the last fifteen minutes or so of the movie. There's still lots of good emoting from her, despite her bonds.

So a very happy 25th, Palmetto! You can see the scene right here.

The Perils of Professor Pyg

I wanted to like Batwoman. I really did. But the show just kept stumbling around for all of the three seasons that it aired. The third and final season was actually somewhat halfway decent, with less of the soap opera BS and a little more of the comic book action that I was hoping to see. But--alas--it was too little, too late, as the series was cancelled soon after.

But the third season produced a pretty good episode called A Lesson from Professor Pyg. The villain crashed a private party, which causes Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) to fight him without her Batwoman costume.

She also fights him without her shoes, as well. Having ditched her heels, Ryan goes barefoot for the bulk of this episode.

There are some nice shots of just her bare feet as she reaches up for stuff that's...just...out...of...her...reach.

She even steps up on the bottom shelf to reach for a life-saving device.

All ends well, of course--except for the show getting a fourth season. Hopefully we can get a better version of Batwoman somewhere down the road.

Dollhouse part 2

Dollhouse, while canceled way too soon after only two short seasons, still managed to wrap up its storyline.

But what we got was still great. Dollhouse was suspenseful, with plenty of twists and turns in the storyline that were pretty shocking, including the ending.

But Dollhouse was also a very BF friendly show, as well. With plenty of BF scenes, both with bondage--like this one in the second season episode The Hollow Men--and scenes where they were just barefoot.

So if you come across this series in any way, shape, or form, it would be worth your while to check it out.

It's a very exciting and wild ride, overall.
