I Love You, Man
Stop Yourself If You Think That You've Seen This One Before
Trailers & Mo | Official Website
Like moist peoples, we loves ourselves some Paul Rudd, hispecially since he plays the same olde dependable Paul Rudd in every movie he's in. Mostly he's excelled as a supporting player, and I Love You, Man finds him in the driver's seat for the second time (following last year's hum-ho dumb and numb Role Models), and while he tries his best to carry this movie, there's no weight to be found for him to drag upon his shoulders. Man is nothing.... but a simple peek into what life would look like if Rudd hung out with a more spontaneous version of Jason Segel's Jason Segel character from the also forgettable, Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The rest of the cast is incredible on paper, but on screen, they're either underused (Rudd's family, consisting of J.K. Simmons, Jane Curtin, Andy Samberg) or overdone (the two guys from The State). A quality comedy is suppose to make you laff from start to finish, and outside of 10 funny billboards that appear 90+ minutes into it, Man doesn't even have enuff quality laffs to even be considered a comedy (no sirprize coming from the guy that brought us the soft Along Came Polly). It's like watching a Judd Apatow flick written by Judd from The Real World and rewritten by Judd Hirsch (speaking of, how come he never played David Berkowitz in a movie? they're bitched at swirth fivereals!). Look, we know you'll love this movie cause you're a sucker for sucker stuff, but we're tough cookies when it comes to comedies, and when we don't laff, we don't laff. And we laffed often during The Love Guru, so take that for whatever it's mrs butterworth's
Office Mates: Rudd's wife to be is played by Dunder Mifflin alum Rashida Jones, who is also joined in the flick by Scratonites Mr Brown and the Benihana girl that Michael put a Sharpie X on

Watchmen: Tales of the Black
Freighter & Under the Hood
You Keep Makin' Watchmen Stuff, We'll Keep Watching, Man
[Trailer]
Sick of the Watchmen yet? Didn't think so. After watching the film twice, as well as the Motion Comic on DVD twice, we needed something else Watchmen related to watch once, if not twice. Watchmen: Tales of the Black Freighter & Under the Hood (avails on DVD & Death Ray) fills this Watchmen jones twofold. First is the cartoon version of the pirate comic within Watchmen's comic. We weren't huge fans of it in the books, but as a stand alone adventure, voiced by Zack Snyder alum Gerard Butler, it's a nice way to waste 25 minutes. The real sizzle on the disc is the longer running fauxumentary featuring Hollis Mason and his Under The Hood tell-all novel. It's a muss watch for those thirsting for more precious minutes of the men and women of The Minutemen, who barely got any screentime in the film
Chasing Ghosts
