Is 'Furry Vengeance' the worst film of 2010?

23 December 2009 11:31 AM, PST | screeninglog.com | See recent screeninglog news »

Judging by its first trailer, Roger Kumble's upcoming comedy "Furry Vengeance" could as well be the worst film of 2010. If you think it's a tad too early to talk about worst of '10, just check out the preview below.

"Vengeance" centers on a big developer (Brendan Fraser) who's forced to battle local wildlife while building a new housing subdivision in the Oregon wilderness. Brooke Shields and Ken Jeong co-star.

As you can see in this trailer, angry animals hijack Fraser's car, stuff him into a portable toilet and pretty much ruin everything he attempts to get done on a daily basis. Plus, it all looks incredibly pathetic. »

Cast: Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis, Bruce Greenwood, David Walliams

Director: Jay Roach

Summary: A renowned publisher encourages his friends to invite the most pathetic guests possible for their weekly dinner party. Just as they find the most pathetic man yet, the host is injured and ends up trapped with the man all night long.

Analysis: A remake of director Francis Veber's 1998 César award-winning "Le Diner des cons", 'Schmucks' is one of the highest profile comedies of next year with one of the strongest casts for the genre in recent memory.

24 November 2009 11:45 AM, PST | IrishCentral | See recent IrishCentral news »

The courtside seats at Sunday’s New York Knicks – Boston Celtics game were filled with celebrity NBA fans. Irish-American funny man Will Ferrell was spotted goofing off with Brooke Shields. But the two celebs had an ulterior motive for cheering on the Knicks – they were at the game to film a scene for their upcoming film “The Other Guys.” Fellow stars of the movie, Rosie Perez and Irish-American actor Mark Wahlberg, were at the filming. Wahlberg, who is extremely proud of his Boston Irish roots, went so far as to sport a Knicks jersey. According to IMDb, Ferrell and Wahlberg play detectives in “The Other Guys,” which also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Eva Mendes, Anne Heche and Paris Hilton. It seems that Ferrell’s status as Forbes’ Most Overpaid Actor hasn’t hurt his ability to churn out star-studded blockbuster films!   »

TV Bites: Ba La La La La La Bomba

19 November 2009 7:05 AM, PST | Movieline | See recent Movieline news »

· Put down your yellow markers. The Simpsons has already crowned a winner of its 20th Anniversary Simpsons Character Contest. Peggy Black (pictured right, with Simpsons executive producer Al Jean), a Connecticut hospital operations manager and diehard Simpsons fan, beat out over 25,000 characters with her Ricardo Bomba. Bomba, nicknamed La Bomba, is a smooth-talking South American Casanova who works at the nuclear plant and moonlights as a Springfield singles scenester. Bomba will be introduced in a January 31 episode opposite Chris Martin of Coldplay. Black was thrilled with the honor and completely unfazed by the fact that there was no cash prize... partly because she thought she'd get to take home that giant hand with a donut they had her pose with.

NBC designs its own Olive Garden, Brooke Shields lands in the middle of nowhere, and more TV Bites after the jump. »

Brooke Shields is getting in The Middle

18 November 2009 6:00 PM, PST | AOL - TVSquad | See recent AOL - TVSquad news »

When you think of Brooke Shields, you think glamor and fashion and high style... Well, I do anyway. She's Suddenly Susan and one of the hot ladies on Lipstick Jungle. I do not think of her as a suburban mother of four in Orson, Indiana. However, that's exactly what she's going to be on an upcoming episode of ABC's sitcom The Middle.

As oxymoronic as it seems, I love the idea of Brooke on The Middle. She'll be going deep into the heart of the heartland to play a character who's supposed to be like Fran Heck, Patricia Heaton's character on The Middle. There's nothing as liberating for an actor as the chance to let loose and break the mold.
