People's Sexiest Man 2012

Channing Tatum

Amidst the chaos of preparing for Thanksgiving, People announced their Sexiest Man Alive 2012. In case you missed the announcement, this year’s pick is rising star Channing Tatum. I first saw Tatum in the dance flick, Step Up, but he had already acted in several other movies prior to that. Since that time, Tatum has kept busy, moving from supporting to starring roles in a variety of box office hits. Although the Sexiest Man Alive title tends to be pretty divisive and opinions always seem to differ, there is no denying the acting talents of each year’s winner. Tatum may not often offer deep insights through his acting, but he does excel at both physically demanding and comedic roles. No matter the role, Tatum’s charming personality never fails to win viewer approval.

Today, November 8th, is Bram Stoker’s 165th birthday. Since Dracula, Stoker’s classic Gothic novel, was published in 1987, vampires have evolved on the page and on the screen. Vampire lore has changed time and again and the creatures have been presented in every possible way: terrifying, appealing, deadly, mesmerizing, campy, and even sparkly. The huge success of the recent Twilight films, the last of which is set to release in theaters next week, proves that vampires are just as popular now as they were when Dracula first appeared in print.
