Figured this thread could use a few more pics.

Eva Mendes - DAAAAMMMNNNNNN HOT!!!

 

[dos_acoustic]

Who could find her not attractive....thats insane

 

[mdm2005]

She has that "I'm a dirty hispanic prostitute who only goes out with guys in leather jackets" look about her, but her acting sucks. Oh well, she'll probably do decent in this particular film because the role won't be that much of a stretch

what do prefer then, the dirty white trailer trash ****e that goes out with guys in leather jackets? You dumb net-nerd wouldnt know what to do if a girl that looked like Eva came up to you and started talking to you!

 

[KenK]

She has her good days and bad, but even on her bad days, I'd still got all up in dat!

 

[FlameHead]

I may go watch Hitch just to see how she looks on screen.

RocketSauce, that pic is damn hot. Man... I can't stop looking long enough to finish this pos....

[FlameHead]

Just watched it actually. Not a bad flick at all... and I have to say that Eva has a very nice screen presence. I don't know what her chemistry is gonna be like with Nic but she definatly had some with the cast of Hitch. She was fun to watch.

 

[KenK]

I never paid attention to the bum. . . until Hitch, that is. Very nice!

 

[FlameHead]

Stop calling Eva a Bum. I'm sure she's pretty wealthy and not living on the streets. Ha. I kill myself.

This is from the Empire Magazine interview. Nothin' New... Just wanted to keep it all together... ya know?

Eva Mendes Talks Ghost Rider

Exclusive on why she signed on for the superhero flick
23 February 2005

Empire had the good fortune yesterday to run into the astonishingly attractive Eva Mendes and – inbetween talking to her about her new film, Hitch, and trying not to stare at her cleavage – we asked her about her involvement in Mark Steven Johnson’s comic book movie/supernatural Western, Ghost Rider, which has already begun preliminary filming in Melbourne.

And although Mendes, who plays Roxanne – a reporter who becomes the object of affection and potential salvation for Nicolas Cage’s cursed stunt biker, Johnny Blaze – didn’t spill any huge plot points, she did so for a very good reason.

“We’re working on the script right now, just fine-tuning it a bit,” she revealed. “A new writer just came on board. We’re exchanging ideas and all that. But the concept art is amazing. When I saw that, I was like 'ohmigod, that is so cool!' It made me feel like a little kid.”

Empire, being the lucky little hellions that we are, has glimpsed some of the concept art for the $100 million movie, in which Cage’s Blaze is tricked by the Devil into becoming a flaming-skulled, bike-riding Spirit of Vengeance by night, and we can confirm that, if Johnson can get what’s on the page up onto the screen, this should be something pretty special.

It’s surprising, though, that a new writer has been brought onboard at this late stage, particularly given that Daredevil helmer Johnson is known to write his own scripts, but presumably with a couple of weeks to go on his biggest film yet, he’s brought someone in so he can concentrate on directing.

Mendes wouldn’t disclose the identity of the new scribe, though – she was too busy waxing lyrical over the main reason she wanted to make the film: her first meeting with Johnson – ace foosball and pool player, and one of the nicest guys in Hollywood.

“The first time we met each other, we sat down at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles which is a bit much, but we still wound up there because it is very convenient,” recalled Mendes.

“We were all very nice and it was very sweet, and we were looking at the menu. And there was Peekytoe Crab on the menu and neither of us had ever heard of Peekytoe crab. Now I see it everywhere! But we were trying to be polite and I ask him 'do you know what Peekytoe Crab is?' and we lose it! You know when you don't even hear sounds coming out of each other because you're laughing so hard? We were like that and after that we had to work with each other. We’re going to have a lot of fun.”

And then, just before she started scanning the menu of the Dorchester Hotel for more bloody Peekytoe Crab, Mendes had time to add one more sentence about her upcoming gig.

“One of the things that I really love too is that Nic Cage is really obsessed with Ghost Rider. Do you know this? He has a Ghost Rider tattoo on his arm,” she laughed. We did actually, but it would have been rude to mention it, so onwards… “So what that does for me is it provides me with much excitement, because when you're working with someone who's so passionate, especially someone at the level of Nic Cage - I've been wanting to work with him for so long, I think he's just genius – that’s exciting to me. This is somebody's dream, you know? It's great to be part of that.”

Ghost Rider – the latest Marvel Comic adaptation to hit the big screen – also stars Wes Bentley, Peter Fonda and Donal Logue, and will hit cinemas sometime in 2006. Needless to say, we’re all over this one like a peekytoe crab on, erm, a smaller sea creature.

Here's some wonderful pics of this lovely lady as well.

 

[FlameHead]

Oh... and I just came accross these pics as well. There was no way I couldn't share them with you. Boy oh boy... Look at these.. which were found HERE

There are much bigger (which means better) pics at the link above. I suggest getting a better look at the first one. It's my favorite anyway...

 

[BloodsuckaHunta]

I've always loved Eva. she makes some crappy movies tolerable, thats for sure! She's smokin' hot. I don't care that she doesn't fit the comic image of Roxanne. In fact I think she's better! Same goes for Alba!

 

[KenK]

Yes, Very Funny.

 

[FlameHead]

... I'm not responsible for the things that come out of my mouth... especially those incredibly stupid jokes.

Haha..

I clicked on FH's link of "Eva Pics" and my mom was like..

"WHERE ARE HER PANTS!"

Made me laugh...

I think that's definitely something to post on IGR!

LOL. I would have cracked too. Those are the things that parents just aren't meant to see. Of course, it could have been worse; Eva could have had no UNDERpants on...

 

[Jester J]

The cast is excellent, though Eva is my least favorite cast member so far. She's pretty hot, and I don't hate her or anything, but very different looking than the Rox in the comic. I hope they have her dye her hair blond for the role.

Actually Roxanne had light brown or reddish hair...same as Eva's.
so hair is right....ethnicity is off of course but i dont have a problem w/ that.
Roxanne's skin/hair color isnt the issue...its her character which im more concerned with. if MSJ can keep true to the character in the book im cool w/ it

 

[FlameHead]

I don't think is a good idea to expect the character to look exactly as the do in the comics. You'll be disapointed if you do. The important thing is that she nails the character at heart.

 

[Guyverjay]

I don't think she's that attractive

That's right, anyway... maybe they want to mix Roxanne and Noble Kale's girl, wasn't she roma or latino?

True, I'm not that familiar with her acting abilities, but I suppose if she's into it and does a great job then it will be just that a great job. Which of course is fine. What I meant was that all the casting seems great, but if there were a weak link, my concerns would be with her first, before the rest of the cast.

Roxanne's hair was always blond(see first 20 or so issues of vol.1), now when she came back after untold years(end of vol.1 or Blaze limited series) it may have changed(cant rememeber), but she had always been blond. Besides Eva may look rather hot as a blond.

Yup, you're right...for the 1st few issues she was indeed blonde. been awhile since i looked at those comics but i found a few of them and she is blonde. from her early appearance in the Marvel Spotlight series to the early issues of GR vol 1. BUT i noticed in issue 24 she had light red/brown hair...definitely not blonde. in what issue the colorist started using light brown instead of blonde im not sure. maybe somewhere in one of the issues she dyed her hair? again im gonna have to pull those issues out and look them over again.

 

[FlameHead]

I'm pretty sure that Roxanne was depicted as a Redhead in the 90's as well. I remember her most from the Blaze: Legacy of Blood mini that was released, though she was around quite often after Blaze showed up in the universe again. I'll have to check out those issues again...

That's right, anyway... maybe they want to mix Roxanne and Noble Kale's girl, wasn't she roma or latino?

I don't think Noble Kale had a girl. Dan did though. And yes, I didn't know what you mean't. I'm just bein' an ass. Dan's chickie poo was named Stacy Dolan, who was a police officer. She was a brunette.

Actuall Noble Kale did have a girl...or wife i believe. think she was a gypsy maybe? she did have dark hair and complexion though....much like a latino.
she was also pregnant if i remember correctly and was burned at the stake for being a witch.
there was a supporting latin female character later on the GR 90s series...but i dont think she hooked up w/ Dan though.
