What's on my mind today?
(In my best Kermit the frog voice) Yaaaaaaay!
It’s been 12 years since the last Muppet movie, and 27 years since the last truly great one. But Jason Segel has done it – he brought the Muppets back!
Courtney and I finally got around to seeing The Muppets, and I was mightily impressed. It’s definitely [...]
For far too long, the only news about Arrested Development were rumors about a movie that was always “coming soon.”
But now – finally – comes the news we’ve all been waiting for since 2006: not only is an Arrested Development movie in the works, but it will be preceded by ten new episodes of the [...]
Of course Bert and Ernie shouldn’t get married; is that the kind of message we want to send to our kids? That its OK for married people (or Muppets) to sleep in separate beds?
If 80’s music is so great (and we all know that it is), why aren’t they making any more of it? [...]
I was, admittedly, late to the Whedon-verse party. But as previously chronicled on this blog (much to James’ chagrin), I found the pure joys of the nerd-worshipped’s Joss Whedon’s creations Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel series. I loved Dr. Horrible’s Sing-A-Long Blog, and though Dollhouse was an odd concept, I stuck around for both [...]
According to Entertainment Weekly, a sequel to 2001’s amazingly brilliant comedy Wet Hot American Summer could potentially happen.
Please let it happen!
Now as a general rule, I don’t believe in unnecessary sequels to movies that stand perfectly well on their own. And Wet Hot American Summer certainly works just fine as it’s own thing. Hell, they [...]
This is one of the funniest and most clever movie trailers I’ve seen in a long time:
Yeah, maybe you saw the end coming, but the meta twist is a funny way to let you know what the movie is REALLY about. (If I helped to spoil the surprise with my recent post, I apologize.)
Unnecessary Movie Sequel Idea of the Day: A new Major League movie.
Now, this concept has a lot in common with the usual groan-inducing sequel/remake/reboot movie ideas that hit the web every now and again: It’s been too long, there is no need for a sequel, the original was a classic so just leave it alone, [...]
They are both great! But overrated.
The wife and I finally watched all six episodes of AMC’s The Walking Dead, and caught the movie Black Swan. The Walking Dead is a really fun show, and it’s easy to see it having a pretty solid run. The characters are interesting and the zombie [...]
Remember when I wrote about how a Buffy movie might happen without Joss Whedon? Well, it’s offically happening.
Sigh.
So what does Joss himself think about it? You can and should read his thoughts here, but his point is essentially that it seems strange to remake something when the original is still so fresh in people’s minds.
And [...]
