I'm a real Walter Mitty type | Tim Jonze
2 hours ago | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
For as long as I can remember I have tried to exist in the real world for as little time as possible
Had I followed the news closely over the past week rather than spent my time imagining getting a call from Roy Hodgson telling me that I'd made the England squad (a gamble that paid off for Roy when I scored a last-minute winning goal that clinched the 2012 Euros … an overhead kick, too!), then I would surely have noticed earlier that Walter Mitty has been making a few appearances.
Mitty, as you probably know, is the daydreaming character created by James Thurber for a New Yorker short story (it was made into a film in 1947, and will be again next year in a remake starring Ben Stiller). His is a mundane life of little achievement, yet in his wildest imagination he would often be fighting wars or performing life-saving surgery. »

Jada Pinkett Smith: 'I'm scared of clowns'
25 May 2012 4:30 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
What's it like being the voice of the hippo in the Madagascar films and the wife of Will Smith?
Hello! How's Cannes?
It's very busy and very beautiful. Oh my goodness. Usually when I have come it's rainy. The first time here I was 20, for Menace II Society. Oh boy, I didn't know anything then. My outfits were just … woah. (1)
Did you have to sleep on the floor?
No, fortunately not. It was a good time to just be naive and young and know absolutely nothing.
Do you ever feel limited doing cartoons? (2)
You have as much space as you need. If I go into a session and I do something and go: "I wasn't happy with that, I'd like to do that again," they say: "Ok, not a problem." Whereas, in live action, I tell ya what: it's best that you figure it out that day. You can go back, »

A Trio of Trailers for Ben Stiller’s Alien Invason Suburban Comedy The Watch
24 May 2012 5:43 PM, PDT | SciFiCool.com | See recent SciFiCool.com news »
For a while there, I wasn’t sure if “The Watch” (formerly “Neighborhood Watch”) was just a dumb comedy or a dumb alien comedy. Turns out, it’s a dumb alien comedy, though admittedly a suspiciously funny looking one. Check out a trio of trailers for the film, including a Red Band Trailer. I don’t think I’ve seen a raunchy alien sci-fi comedy before, so this is new. Four everyday suburban guys come together as an excuse to escape their humdrum lives one night a week. But when they accidentally discover that their town has become overrun with aliens posing as ordinary suburbanites, they have no choice but to save their neighborhood — and the world — from total extermination. The sci-fi comedy stars Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Rosemarie DeWitt, Jonah Hill, Nicholas Braun, Richard Ayoade, Will Forte, Doug Jones, Billy Crudup, and is directed by Akiva Schaffer. The end »

Exploding Cows and Flying Lizard Men Attack in New The Watch Trailer
24 May 2012 5:35 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
If you were wondering, Yes, “The Watch” (formerly “Neighborhood Watch”) is a sci-fi action/comedy. With, you know, aliens and such. Or at least, I’m assuming the film really is about an alien invasion since there are giant alien ray-shooting silver balls and lizard looking alien creatures flying around tackling humans in the latest trailer for “The Watch”. It actually looks pretty funny, which is very surprising. Usually Ben Stiller movies barely make me crack a smile, especially the trailers. Four everyday suburban guys come together as an excuse to escape their humdrum lives one night a week. But when they accidentally discover that their town has become overrun with aliens posing as ordinary suburbanites, they have no choice but to save their neighborhood — and the world — from total extermination.

New Trailer For The Watch: See the Aliens!
24 May 2012 5:21 PM, PDT | BuzzSugar | See recent BuzzSugar news »
The latest preview for The Watch is here, and while the first trailer for the suburban alien-fighting comedy gave us a good look at the bromance between Ben Stiller, Jonah Hill, Vince Vaughn, and Richard Ayoade, it was lacking in plot. Now we get a look at not only the characters, but also a little bit more of the story, and we even get a peek at one of the aliens. I mean, it's dead (kind of) but it's still pretty exciting. This trailer definitely isn't as crass as the first red-band one, but I don't think its lack of crudeness takes away from the dynamic between the characters. Now we know the origin of the sweet neighborhood watch jackets ("It's like the Chinese symbol for shut up and dance!") and the group's skilled interrogation techniques. Plus we still get to see some exploding cow. The movie hits theaters July »

4 Movies That Could Benefit From The 'G.I. Joe' Release Change
24 May 2012 4:05 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"G.I. Joe: Retaliation" will have to wait another nine months to seek retribution. This week, in a shocking move, Paramount bumped the summer blockbuster off its June 29 release date and moved it to March 29, 2013.
Per studio insiders, the change was done to give director Jon Chu time to convert "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" into 3D, a decision that could pay off if it drives overseas ticket buyers to cinemas next year. (3D, while an increasingly frowned-upon fad in the U.S., is still big abroad.) According to star Dwayne Johnson, new scenes are being "designed" to "enhance" the 3D. It's a whole new "G.I. Joe" world -- one that could affect the fate of many other movies.
Ahead, four films that could reap the benefits of "G.I. Joe 2" moving to 2013.
"Ted" should make more money
About five hours after "Joe" was moved, Universal dropped Seth MacFarlane's R-rated comedy »

In New Trailer for The Watch, the Guys Battle (and Photograph) an Alien
24 May 2012 9:18 AM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
In March, the teaser trailer for the upcoming comedy The Watch (back when it was called Neighborhood Watch) was a simple affair, showing Jonah Hill, Ben Stiller, Richard Ayoade, and Vince Vaughn driving around their neighborhood in a minivan trying to look like badasses in their matching jackets. The teaser did little to promote the fact that the group would eventually stumble across a possible alien invasion, something that the work-unfriendly red band trailer released earlier this month addressed almost entirely.
Clearly, the alien subplot is a selling point of the movie. The latest, work-friendly trailer for The Watch further explores the alien invasion, even revealing what the aliens look like when Stiller, Hill, and Vaughn fight one in a CostCo and later take pictures with it.

New Green-Band Trailer for The Watch with Ben Stiller & Vince Vaughn
24 May 2012 2:15 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Starring Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill, and Richard Ayoade in the leads, The Watch looks set to be one of the funniest comedies of the summer.
Akiva Schaffer (SNL regular, Hot Rod) is behind the camera, directing from a script co-written by the ever-brilliant team of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg – essentially, there’s no way this won’t be excellent.
We’ve seen a few great things from the film already, most recently with a new red-band trailer earlier this month announcing the change in title, and now a new green band trailer has made its way online ahead of its summer bow.

Supporting Actors: The Overlooked and Underrated (part 2 of 5)
24 May 2012 12:12 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Oliver Reed as Athos in The Three Musketeers & The Four Musketeers (Richard Lester, 1973/1974, UK):
These films were actually shot all at once but ultimately released as two separate films telling one long story. As the musketeer with a dark past, Oliver Reed provides a lot of the heart and soul in these very entertaining and well-made films. Technically, since we have to isolate one film for our fantasy nomination, it would be The Four Musketeers as his role is more prominent in that film. Reed’s reunion scene with Faye Dunaway’s Milady is superb as is Reed’s intense swordplay with an array of opponents including Christopher Lee. An underrated actor whose career was damaged by well-documented alcohol problems and notorious off-screen behavior, Reed still logged in some truly incredible acting performances over the course of his career. His portrayal of Athos is definitely one of them.

New Trailer For The Watch
23 May 2012 10:58 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
While we completely understand the decision for the team behind alien invasion comedy The Watch’s trailers to push Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn and Jonah Hill to the forefront for Us audiences, we’ve been hoping we might see a little more from It Crowd / Submarine icon Richard Ayoade. Fortunately, this latest promo, courtesy of Conan O’Brien’s show, at least gives us a brief sampling. Check it out below.The movie finds Stiller, Vaughn, Hill and Ayoade as four blokes in a seemingly sleepy suburban Us town who form a neighbourhood watch group as a way to get out of boring family chores like, er, spending time with their families.But while it all starts as a chance for a little male bonding, they soon discover that all is not what it seems in the area, and that they might actually have to stand up and fight an incursion by nasty, »

Trailers for a handful of anticipated films streamed across the Web in the past 24 hours, giving us long-lead looks at two summer blockbusters, a horror thriller and a potential Oscar candidate. Let’s run through the clips and point out what’s worth watching. Vince Vaughn stopped by Conan O’Brien’s late-night TBS talk show on Tuesday night with a trailer for The Watch, a sci-fi comedy that casts Ben Stiller, Jonah Hill and the Swingers star as members of a community watch who suspect virtually everyone of their cul-de-sac of being an alien. Producers are playing up the extraterrestrial angle of the comedy, hoping to distance themselves from the Trevon Martin case in Florida. Smart move. The comedy opens on July 27. Here’s the first...

New Trailer For The Watch Makes Sure You Know It's An Alien Movie
23 May 2012 4:47 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Back in April Fox announced that they would be changing their marketing strategy for the comedy The Watch (formerly known as Neighborhood Watch). Due to the shooting involving Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, the studio said that future posters and trailers would focus more on the science-fiction element of the story in the movie. So now the newest trailer for The Watch begin? By explaining that the world is under attack from aliens even before the first footage is shown. Check out the new trailer below, which comes to us courtesy of Conan. In The Watch Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Richard Ayoade and Jonah Hill star as a group of men who decide that they need some time away from their families. To do so they start a neighborhood watch group, but use the time to drink and play cards. Things get serious, however, when the group discovers that the »

Stiiler, Vaughan, Hill And Ayoade Take ‘The Watch’ In New Trailer
23 May 2012 11:43 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
With a comedy cast to die for, there are high expectations for The Watch and it has itself a trailer. Starring Vince Vaughan (Wedding Crashers), Ben Stiller (Zoolander), Jonah Hill (Superbad) and Richard Ayoade (TVs The It Crowd) The Watch follows four Neighbourhood Watch dads who protect their ‘hood from aliens. The trailer, it must be said, is pretty underwhelming given the talent involved and has a worrying lack of Ayoade on show – this could be down to his lack of star-power in the Us admittedly, but still he’s great so give him some time. But never a group to force our opinions on you have a look yourself and let us know what you think and if you’ll be WATCHing it…sorry:
The Watch is directed by Akiva Schaffer and will be patrolling a cinema near you from 29th August.
