Blog Posts about Fire on the Amazon

We here at Mr. Skin have no prejudice against the Razzie Awards- in fact, Showgirls (1995) is a certified gold pop toppin' classic here at Skin Central. So it is with heads held high that we offer our one-handed salute to Sandra Bullock, who in 2010 made history by becoming the first actress to with both an Academy Award (for the Blind Side) and a Razzie Award (for All About Steve) in the same year.

Sandra's good-girl image and her reluctance to bare the B's onscreen is sort of a chicken-or-the-egg scenario, except slightly less runny. Sandy is a tease in many of her roles, coming up to the edge of the nudity canyon but never taking a full dive in. A case in point is the Proposal (2009), where she strips to the buff for a kooky shower scene with Ryan Reynolds, but strategically covers her candy throughout. You're killing us, Sandy!

The best Sandra for your bollocks is probably in Fire on the Amazon (1993) when, in the throes of steamy jungle love, just a hint of Sandy's side boob can be seen in the shadows. When it comes to this comely comedienne, we'll take what we can get. A friendly reminder from Mr. Skin, Sandra: showing skin and a squeaky-clean image don't have to be mutually exclusive- just ask Julie Andrews!

Stay tuned for more Academy-Award winning nudity all this week on the Mr. Skin blog!

IMDB has just announced their top 25 stars of 2010 and everyone wants to know where we can see them naked.

Well 13 of them are guys, so Mr. Skin's answer to there you can see them naked is, "Who cares?"

Of the twelve remaining ladies, we have skinflints like Zoe Saldana, Emma Stone, Scarlett Johansson, Megan Fox, Mila Kunis, and Kristen Stewart, who haven’t shown a thing in their whole careers, never mind 2010.

There are also one-trick ponies like Zooey Deschanel, who got topless in Gigantic, and Natalie Portman, who showed T&A in Hotel Chevalier.

Sandra Bullock made the list at #23. She has three nude appearances to her name in Who Shot Patakango?, Fire on the Amazon, and The Proposal. But even if you put all those scenes together into one, you'd still miss it if you blinked.

Rachel McAdams, who came in at #21, did some great nudity early on in My Name is Tanino and gave us a few more quick peeks in The Notebook and The Time Traveler's Wife.

The one true skin star on the list is the always reliable Mr. Skin Hall-of-Famer Angelina Jolie. Angelina has done some great nudity in her career, from movies like Gia and Taking Lives to the more recentChangeling and Wanted.

Angelina, you could show those other girls a thing or two. And why don’t you show them to us while you're at it?

This was Sandra Bullock's year. She may have split with tattooed husband Jesse James, but she won an Oscar for The Blind Side and universal praise for The Proposal.

But skin fans had nothing but criticism for Sandy's Proposal performance. For months, she talked up a "full frontal" scene in the flick that turned out to be nothing more than a blurry glance at Bullock's buttocks.

We're willing to forgive and forget, however. Especially now that we've received that news that Sandra's best---and arguably, only--real nude scene is coming to Blu-Ray!

At the end of December, Anchor Bay will be releasing the Roger Corman-produced Fire on the Amazon (1993), an out of print, rarely seen rainforest politico-drama featuring Sandy at her dandiest. A full year before she drove a bus to stardom in Speed, struggling young Sandra starred in Fire and stripped down for some super-sweaty sex with her costar that was hotter and wetter than a tropical rainforest.

As she gets banged from behind, Miss Congeniality lives up to her name and graciously shows off each of her funbags. And we can't help wondering--what will the magic of Blu-Ray reveal? The scene (watch it here) is so steamy yet so shadowy... a recipe that often makes for newly-found bush when HD comes into play.

Stay tuned--we'll have the high-def Bullocks when they're available!

A One-Armed Salute to 2009’s Most Skintastic Achievements in Motion Picture and Television Sex and Nudity

It's time to announce the nude celeb winners of Mr. Skin's 11th Annual Anatomy Awards, a celebration of Hollywood at its breast. Along with nude celeb categories like Best Boobs, Best Butt, and Breast Picture, this year we added a special nude celeb Viewer's Choice Award to give you a chance to cast your vote for your favorite nude celebs. We'll also announce the lucky winner of this year's Skin-Prentice contest and present a very special Lifetime Skinchievement Award to one lucky nude celeb.

The skinvelope, please!

The nominees for the 82nd annual Academy Awards were announced this morning, and we must admit, we're a bit disappointed. With the field for best picture expanded to ten films this year, we thought the race was destined to be packed with movie nudity. But to our surprise, only two of the ten movies nominated for best picture (A Serious Man and Up in the Air) contain female nudity. And one of them used a body double!

Last year, only five films were nominated, and still two featured bare actresses, with one (The Reader) containing some of the best nudity of Kate Winslet's very very nude career. (The other was Cate Blanchett's butt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.) So what went wrong in 2009? Did high cinema not contain enough cinemams? Or did the Academy overlook nudeworthy performances? Let us know what you think in the comments.

And after the cut, find out where to see current Oscar nominees nude in past appearances.

Mr. Skin’s DVD Pick of the Week

Easy Rider (1969)—Blu-Ray
STUDIO: Sony
NUDE: Luana Anders (breasts), Toni Basil (breasts, butt), Sabrina Scharf (breasts)
Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda are far-out hippies on choppers who set out to find America—and sell a lot of cocaine—in the classic Easy Rider (1969). Along the way they meet rednecks and turn on a then unknown Jack Nicholson to the wonders of weed. This low-budget sleeper came from nowhere to become a huge box-office hit and single-handedly spawned the biker genre. It's heavy existential ending may bum your high, but scenes like Sabrina Scharf skinny-dipping with Hopper in the commune or a pre-"Mickey" Toni Basil romping naked through Mardi Gras on acid will keep your freak flag flying. Karen Black was also in that Mardi Gras sequence but kept her clothes on.

Sandra Bullock Will Get "Naked" in Every Movie from Now On

Nudity-shunning A-lister Sandra Bullock is over-the-moon pleased with the cash raked in by her romantic-comedy hit The Proposal, and she thinks she knows the key to its success: "nudity." Sandra credits the movie's booming box office to her "nude" scene in the movie and promises that she'll get "naked" in every movie she does for the rest of her career.

After the cut, hear Sandy's thoughts on her future in movie "nudity," and learn why we're encumbered by all these pesky quotation marks.
