Even though Amy was nominated for a Teen Choice Award for her performance in Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, it doesn’t look like she made an appearance at tonight’s taping.  While it doesn’t surprise me that she’s not there, another appearance would have been nice lol.  But, I’ve been going through my sources and I did find some HQ additions to add to a few of Amy’s appearances this year.

• Out & About > 2009 > London Photocall for ‘Doubt’
• Out & About > 2009 > ‘Julie & Julia’ Special Screening – Los Angeles
• Out & About > 2009 > ‘Julie & Julia’ New York Premiere

Inspired by the Hasbro action figure, Paramount’s G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra took command of the weekend box office with a $56.2 million debut domestically, according to studio estimates Sunday. G.I. Joe also took in $44.3 million overseas for a worldwide total of $100.5 million.

Meryl Streep’s Julia Child tale Julie & Julia opened a solid No. 2 as an alternative for adult crowds with $20.1 million. While G.I. Joe was the first choice for young males, women 35 and older were the main audience for Julie & Julia.

As for reviews of the film… the majority of them are favorable with Rotten Tomatoes listing it as 76% fresh.  Most critics are saying that Amy’s part of the movie, the Julie half, isn’t as strong as the Julia part.  To be clear though, most are not saying it’s Amy’s fault – it is Meryl after all and she just nails the part as she always does.  Hard to compete with that lol.

I’ve added over 30 new MQ photos from the Julie & Julia press conference that was held on July 29th.

After scoring an Oscar nod for her co-starring role with Meryl Streep in Doubt, Amy Adams is back on the big screen with the Academy Award-winning legend. But this time, Adams doesn’t have a single scene with Streep.

In Julie and Julia, Adams takes on the real-life role of a woman who cooked (and blogged) her way through every recipe in Julia Child’s masterpiece, Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Parade.com’s Jeanne Wolf found out why Amy’s most memorable moment took place off of the set—and how she almost gave up on her acting career.

Take two on her engagement.
“I got engaged the night before we wrapped Julie and Julia [to her boyfriend of six years, Darren La Gallo]. It was funny because I was actually running lines from the script in my head while we were taking this romantic carriage ride in Central Park. I felt really bad for Darren. I was like, ‘You should get a re-do because you were cheated.’ All I was thinking about was my last day at work.”

Why she loves him.
“Darren gives up a lot and gives me a lot. He comes to visit me on set. He draws me a bath when I get home. He’s an actor and also an artist and he sends me drawings. Just lots of sweet little things to keep us connected.”

I know the previous layout wasn’t up for very long but I just had to put something together to showcase the new photos we have.  I wanted something very simple and clean that focused completely on the images.  As with all my websites, the layout looks best in the latest version of Firefox although it looks good in IE as well.  I hope you all like it!

I recently obtained some HQ outtake photos from Amy’s Parade photoshoot – and when I say some, I mean a lot!  I’ve added 90 new images to the gallery from this session.  I came so close to not posting these at all because people have such a bad habit of taking rare photos from sites and using them with no credit.  So once again, I am going to ask that you please refrain from posting these at your blogs and forums as they were obtained exclusively for Enchanting Amy.  If you insist on posting them elsewhere, please be polite and credit us as the source.
