First Trailer for WANDERLUST Starring Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston [UPDATED with New Images]

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: November 3rd, 2011 at 1:20 pm

The trailer for David Wain‘s Wanderlust has gone online.  The movie focuses on Manhattan couple George and Linda (Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston) who are forced to move to Atlanta when George loses his job.  Moving to Atlanta is apparently a fate so terrible that it causes Aniston to scream at the heavens.  The two then move around to various locations until they land on a commune and start to feel renewed.  It looks like For Better or Worse or Did You Hear About the Morgans? if either of those movies were funny.  Wain delivered a great little gem with Role Models and it’s tough to go wrong when you throw in The State alum like Ken Marino and Joe Lo Truglio.  There’s a bunch of great jokes in the trailer, and it isn’t even a red-band version.  Color me excited for this flick.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer.  The great cast also includes Justin Theroux, Malin Akerman, Ray Liotta, Lauren Ambrose, Kathryn Hahn, and Alan Alda.  Wanderlust opens February 24, 2012. [We've updated the article with new images which you can check out after the jump.]

HORRIBLE BOSSES Blu-ray Review

by Andre Dellamorte    Posted: October 14th, 2011 at 7:00 am

2011’s summer season was marked by the number of R-rated comedies it had, and the number of successful ones. Basically, it takes two years for the heat of one project to generate more of the same and you could say 2011 comedy summer this was all due to 2009’s The Hangover. This year saw Bridesmaids, The Hangover Part II, Horrible Bosses, Bad Teacher, Friends With Benefits, The Change Up and 30 Minutes or Less. And in that you can see that the start launched some really successful films, but by the end of summer audiences became bored of these films.  Hit overload. Horrible Bosses made over $100 Million and did so because of a great premise. Three guys (Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudekis) hate the people they work for (Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, and Colin Farrell) and so they plot to kill them. Our review of the Blu-ray release of Horrible Bosses follows after the jump.

HORRIBLE BOSSES Review

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: July 8th, 2011 at 6:51 am

For an R-rated comedy, the humor doesn’t always have to be about shock value and gross-out gags (although those certainly don’t hurt).  It can be about strong dialogue and fantastic performances and Seth Gordon’s Horrible Bosses manages exactly that.  It’s the fourth major R-rated comedy to hit this summer and it may be the best one so far.  While it lacks the warmth and maturity of Bridesmaids, it’s also a tighter, sharper narrative that keeps a laser-like focus on delivering non-stop jokes and never letting the plot stall.  But more than its pacing, Horrible Bosses thrives because every actor is working at the top of their game.  Leads Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis each maintain their own comic style but find a way to make those styles work in concert with each other.  Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, and Colin Farrell relish playing the eponymous bosses with Farrell and especially Aniston getting to show audiences a new side of their acting talents.  The result of the sharp writing, profanity-laden humor, and killer performances make Horrible Bosses one of the year’s most consistent comedies.

Red Band Trailer for HORRIBLE BOSSES

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: June 27th, 2011 at 12:17 pm

A red band trailer for Seth Gordon’s Horrible Bosses has been released. While the green band trailer has some good laughs, this trailer gives a better idea of how the film’s gonna play out. The jokes are spot-on, and every member of the fantastic cast is bringing their A-game. Whoever put Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis together is a genius. I can’t wait to finally see the whole film.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer. And if you missed any of Steve’s coverage from the set, check out his interviews with Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis, director Seth Gordon and producer Jay Stern, as well as his full set visit report. Horrible Bosses also stars Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, Jennifer Aniston and Jamie Foxx. The film opens July 8th.

6 Clips from HORRIBLE BOSSES

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: June 25th, 2011 at 9:39 pm

With director Seth Gordon’s (The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters) comedy Horrible Bosses opening July 8, Warner Bros. has provided us with six clips.  As most of you know, the film has an all-star cast featuring Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, and Jamie Foxx and it’s about a group of friends that decide to work together to kill their bosses.

While I haven’t seen the film, I’ve spoken to a few people that have and they’re all telling me it’s great.  And after being on the set last year and laughing my ass off, I believe it.  Hit the jump for the clips, and here’s my on set interviews with Day, Bateman and Sudeikis, Gordon, and producer Jay Stern.

HORRIBLE BOSSES Set Visit

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: June 9th, 2011 at 10:00 am

I’m trying not to ruin the take from laughing.  Thankfully, all the reporters on the Horrible Bosses set visit are also on the verge of losing their shit, so I think they won’t throw us all out if we mess it up.  As I look around the converted TGI Friday’s in Woodland Hills, California, I realize the entire crew else is getting ready to burst, and it’s at this moment that I start to think director Seth Gordon’s movie might be awesome and a huge surprise.

But let me back up a second.

Late last summer I got to visit the set of Horrible Bosses.  As most of you know, the film has an all-star cast featuring Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, and Jamie Foxx and it’s about a group of friends that decide to work together to kill their bosses.  While Warner Bros. could have played it safe and released a boring PG-13 movie, I’m happy to report Horrible Bosses is a hard R and based on what I saw on set it’s going for the jugular in terms of raunchy comedy.  For more on the film and what I saw and learned on set, hit the jump.

4 New Posters for HORRIBLE BOSSES

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: May 19th, 2011 at 12:27 pm

It will be interest to see at summer’s end which R-rated comedy was the best.  I certainly wouldn’t bet against Horrible Bosses, which boasts an outstanding cast featuring Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudiekis, Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, and Jamie Foxx.  The trailer was pretty damn good and while these posters are a bit bland, I’m happy whenever a poster for a comedy doesn’t simply use a white background.

Hit the jump to check out the posters.  Horrible Bosses opens July 8th.

Trailer and Poster for HORRIBLE BOSSES Starring Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: May 11th, 2011 at 12:55 pm

The trailer for Horrible Bosses has gone online.  Directed by Seth Gordon (Four Christmases) the movie centers on three hapless employees (played by Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis) who conspire to kill each other’s horrible bosses (played by Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, and Jennifer Aniston).  While I’m eager to see what a red-band trailer might hold, there are plenty of good jokes in this green-band trailer.  As usual, Bateman is terrific (his dry delivery at the end of the trailer is golden), but there doesn’t seem to be a weak link in the cast.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer as well as the teaser poster.  The film also stars Jamie Foxx, Donald Sutherland, and Julie Bowen.  Horrible Bosses opens July 8th.

First Look at Kevin Spacey and Jennifer Aniston in HORRIBLE BOSSES

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: April 4th, 2011 at 4:26 pm

There are plenty of great-looking hard-R comedies headed our way this summer, but Horrible Bosses has a cast that makes it a serious contender for the best of the bunch.  The film stars Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, and Charile Day as a trio of hapless employees who agree to kill each others’ bosses played by Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, and Jennifer Aniston, respectively.  As if that cast wasn’t impressive enough, the film also stars Jamie Foxx (playing a character named “Motherfucker Jones”), Donald Sutherland, “Old Spice guy” Isaiah Mustafa, and Julie Bowen.

The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly has some new images from the film and you can check them out after the jump along with a full plot synopsis.  Horrible Bosses is due out July 8^th.  Click here for Steve’s recent interview with Bateman, Day, and Sudeikis.

Book Review: WHAT’S A NICE ACTOR LIKE YOU DOING IN A MOVIE LIKE THIS?

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 27th, 2011 at 8:24 am

As a movie nerd, I’m attracted to cinematic train wrecks.  I love learning about how movies went drastically wrong and the cinematic schlock that once stuffed video store walls and now fills up video streaming services.  Obviously, I want to see all the great films, but there’s also something to be said about movies where everything went horribly wrong.  Furthermore, it’s not enough to know the “popular” terrible movies.  True cinephiles know how to dig deeper into filmographies and find the real travesties.

Author Dan Whitehead is a true cinephile and has used his encyclopedic knowledge of movies to compile an engaging overview of A-list actors slumming in Z-movie hell.  And if you’re thinking, “Yeah, we all know George Clooney was in Return of the Killer Tomatoes,” Whitehead fires back with “Yeah, but have you seen him in Return to Horror High?”  Whitehead’s book What’s a Nice Actor Like You Doing in a Movie Like This? not only examines the films that celebrities wish you’d rather not see, but does so with humor and insight.

New BETWEEN TWO FERNS with Zach Galifianakis, Tila Tequila, and Jennifer Aniston

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: February 9th, 2011 at 7:49 am

A new episode of Between Two Ferns has gone online and sadly it feels like a bit of a rehash.  Zach Galifianakis sits down with Tila Tequila and Jennifer Aniston but it ends up being Tequila who gets the majority of his attention.  It’s the same set-up that Galifianakis did with Andy Richter and Conan O’Brien but not quite as good.  There are still some funny gags, but Aniston seems more befuddled by the whole endeavor than other actors who have managed to play into it.

First Image from WANDERLUST Starring Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: January 19th, 2011 at 10:55 am

The first image from the upcoming Judd Apatow-produced comedy Wanderlust has hit the web. Directed by David Wain (Role Models) the film tells the story of a couple who are forced to move out of their New York household when the husband loses his job.

The film stars Paul Rudd, Jennifer Aniston, Justin Theroux, Malin Akerman, Ray Liotta, Alan Alda, and Christina Hendricks. Wain co-wrote the script for the film with writing partner (and actor) Ken Marino. The two previously teamed up on the very funny Role Models, and the cult comedy classic Wet Hot American Summer (seriously, if you haven’t seen this movie, do so. Thank me later.).

Charlie Day Exclusive Interview GOING THE DISTANCE; Plus Updates on IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY and HORRIBLE BOSSES

by Christina Radish    Posted: September 1st, 2010 at 4:48 pm

Charlie Day is an actor, writer and producer whose comedic talent has earned him legions of fans, as a result of his role on the TV series It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The R-rated romantic comedy Going the Distance is his first major feature film role, in which he plays the sweet and earnest best friend and roommate of Justin Long’s character, Garrett. When Garrett enters into a long distance relationship with Erin (Drew Barrymore), Dan (Day) tries to help them along by taking advantage of the fact that the walls in their apartment are paper thin, and either comments through them or plays music that he feels suits the occasion.

During an exclusive interview with Collider at the film’s press day, Charlie Day talked about making the transition into feature film roles and the difference in being involved with something where the pressure is not on him. He also gave a preview of Season 6 of Sunny, talked about working with Jennifer Aniston on Horrible Bosses, finding a way to enjoy the mutual awkwardness of on screen nudity and said that the film will definitely have an R rating. Check out what he had to say after the jump:
