So, the TV edit of the popular catchprase for Snakes On A Plane went from “I have had it with these motherf***ing snakes on this motherf***ing plane,” to “I Have Had It With These Monkey-Fightin’ Snakes On This Monday-To-Friday Plane.  Only the guys at Holytaco would analyze this entire occurrence.

Can Christian Bale Save The Fighter?

Published by Paul Tassi under Movies, News

bale.jpg

Come hear the arduous tale of The Fighter, the story of the movie that is the story of Irish boxer, Mickey Ward

- First in 2007, the project had Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon signed on

- Subtract Damon

- Add Pitt

- Add Aronofsky

- Subtract Pitt

- Subtract Aronofsky

- Add David O’Russell

- Add Bale

And all along we have the constant W for Wahlberg. But yes, the latest news is that Christian Bale and David O’Russell (Three Kings, I Heart Huckabees) have signed on, which is good news all around, since we know that Bale refuses to do bad movies. At least we hope Terminator 4 is going to be good. What’s Harsh Times? Shut up.

Help Support the Future of Comedy

Published by Paul Tassi under Oddly Enough

twix-contest.png

I hardly ever use Unreality to plug my own personal agenda, but on rare occasion the opportunity arises and I must take advantage of the fact that I run my own site.

The cause in question today is that of young Joe Baur, as seen above, who has been nominated along with three other kids competing to be named “The Funniest College Student on Campus” by Twix, because I guess they have the power to determine such a title.

Joe is a friend of mine and I’m pretty sure he’s going to be famous someday, so by voting for him in this contest, you can say you heard about him first when he gets his own Comedy Central Presents special.

The contest was to make a short commerical for Twix aimed at college kids. Joe’s video is here, and the link to vote for him is here. Yeah, it asks for an email, but I’m pretty sure you can put whatever down. Though I put my real one and I haven’t received any Twix related messages yet.

So once again, vote for Joe from Ohio here.

Amazingly, Players Other Than LeBron Featured in St. Vincent-St. Mary High School Documentary

Published by Madison under Movies, Trailers

Above is the trailer for More Than a Game, the documentary that follows LeBron James and his St. Vincent-St. Mary High School teammates and their quest to win a high school national championship.  It looks pretty good, but I was shocked to see that the film focuses on players other than LeBron.  That’s like doing a documentary on Slash’s Snakepit and devoting 20 minutes of it to Gilby Clarke.  Sure, it’s better for accuracy’s sake, but does anybody really care?  I just want to see LeBron dunking on people and making millions.  I never thought he’d live up to all the hype surrounding him when he was in high school, and it’s frightening to think that he’s actually surpassed it.  Anyway, Dwyane Wade for MVP FTW!

First Look at H2 (Halloween 2, Not the Gas-Guzzling Automobile)

Published by Madison under Movies, Trailers

Really?  They’re calling this H2?  What is with the names of sequels these days? 2 Fast 2 Furious, H20 (another Halloween sequel), DP2: The Mighty Fhucks?  Whatever.  Rob Zombie is directing this, so maybe it’ll actually be gory and somewhat scary.  But oh, there’s the cliched “close the mirrored medicine cabinet and have the scary guy standing there where he wasn’t standing before” trick.  Great.  Hopefully we’ll also get a “the bad guy was shot and is lying still so let’s go check on him instead of shooting him again to make sure he’s dead” scene, too.  I feel like Rob Zombie watched Scream, found all the horror movie cliches, jumped up and said, “F*ck it, I’m doing Halloween 2.  But calling it H2, because that would be super awesome and marketable.”  So basically, he’s Jamie Kennedy’s character with facial hair and dreadlocks.

The Top Ten “Other Sports” Drama Movies

Published by Nattyb under Movies

Other Sports Movies

There have been countless lists that explore the best movies in football, basketball, and baseball.  I can even throw in boxing movies because there have been so many.  But what about all the other sports?  I guess it’s pretty tough to have a “best of” list of bowling movies simply because there aren’t many of them.

However, I’ve compiled a list of ten movies that I’d consider to be part of that “other sports” category.  And just so there’s no complaining by you people, I’m sticking to drama movies so someone doesn’t scream out “you missed Kingpin!” or “Caddyshack you moron.”

Unreal Movie Review: Adventureland

Published by Paul Tassi under Movies, Reviews

adventureland1.jpg

“Wow, you are SO not Robert Pattinson.”

Adventureland was not what I expected.

From the director, the cast and hell, even the poster, I expected it to be Superbad at an amusement park, but aside from those three things, the two films have nearly nothing else in common.

I was getting upset about ten minutes into the movie, when I wasn’t laughing out loud at any of the jokes, and began silently bemoaning the absence of Seth Rogen and Adam Golberg.

But then Ryan Reynolds took Kristen Stewart’s pants off.

Adventureland was not what I expected.

A Collection of 10 300 Trailer Mashups

Published by Madison under Movies, Trailers

300.jpg

So does that make this 3000 trailer mashups?  Er, not quite.  Zack Snyder’s 300 was a huge hit commercially and although many critics were split on the film’s merits, most could agree that it was a visual treat.  To me, 300 was an empty, superficial movie that lacked any real depth, substance, or genuine emotion, and all the slow motion and CGI-ed abs in the world couldn’t make up for this.  It’s pretty ripe for parody and, even as a recent film, it’s been spoofed quite a bit.  Naturally, mashups that employed the 300 trailer starting popping up all over the interwebs, some of which were pretty impressive.  I’ve collected 10 of what I thought were the best 300 trailer mashups and posted them after the jump.
