Spoiler Guy – Entourage Spoilers for August

15 July 2009 1:33 PM, PDT | From TVovermind.com | See recent TVovermind.com news

HBO's Entourage returned this week and was consistently awesome.  I'm convinced that Entourage will never die, it is just too cool for death.  The premiere kicked off a bunch of new threads withe the Entourage getting pulled in all sorts of directions.  Eric is thinking of moving out, everybody's wondering why Drama even has his own house since he's always at Vince's, and Vince has a big premiere and needs his license for a new movie. Llyod is determined to get a promotion, and Ari is prepared to put him through weeks and weeks of hazing to get it.  Sadistic douche.  Now here is a look at the episodes coming up next month.

Entourage Episode #70:  “Running on E” – Sunday, Aug. 2 (10:30-11:00 p.m. Et/Pt)

With production on his next film delayed, Vince (Adrian Grenier) searches for ways to amuse himself.  Andrew (Gary Cole) tells Ari (Jeremy Piven

20 Most Anticipated Movies Still to Come In 2009

9 July 2009 2:33 AM, PDT | From Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news

20 Most Anticipated Movies Still to Come In 2009 At the beginning of the year I made a list of my Top 15 Most Anticipated Films of 2009. Of that list I have now seen five of them. Nine out of the remaining ten made this list as I bumped Alejandro Amenabar's Agora since it has still yet to get picked up by a distributor due to rather weak reactions out of the Cannes Film Festival. However, a few films have made their way onto this list thanks to strong film festival reactions as I have put together a list of 20 films to look forward to as we move into the final six months of 2009. One film I didn't include merely because it is coming out next week and I felt it would be a wasted space is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I am undoubtedly anticipating seeing it and had it been

The Invention of Lying International Movie Trailer

26 June 2009 4:52 PM, PDT | From /Film | See recent /Film news

An international trailer has arrived at Yahoo UK for The Invention of Lying, once called The Other Side of the Truth, and while the new title is lame, the trailer has great moments. The film, written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Matthew Robinson, stars Gervais as a man in a world where no one lies. Ever. At all. Period. Until the day when Gervais realizes how to lie, which turns his world around. The trailer does a great job of showing of the film's co-stars: Jennifer Garner, Louis Ck (who gets the clip's kicker line), Jonah Hill, Martin Starr and Rob Lowe. The rest of the cast is impressive, too: Jason Bateman, Jeffrey Tambor, Christopher Guest and Patrick Stewart as the narrator. Gervais spoke a while ago about the name change, saying: I loved This Side of the Truth but we worried that in all the marketing it would

Ricky Gervais Invents Lying in New Trailer

26 June 2009 2:45 PM, PDT | From Cinematical.com | See recent Cinematical news

It's not like my love of British comedian Ricky Gervais is a secret around these parts. No worries, though I'll be keeping my inner fangirl at bay, and you don't need to worry about this turning into a 'gush-fest'. The first trailer for The Invention of Lying has debuted over at Yahoo! Movies UK and we have our first glimpse at the story of an alternate universe where human beings have never learned the art of deception. Gervais plays a man working in the film industry who becomes the inventor of lying, and quickly uses his newfound skill for romantic and financial gain.

Gervais seems to have no trouble inspiring praise from his peers, and the cast list for Lying is proof of that comedy clout. Just some the names in the Lying cast are; Jonah Hill, Louis C.K., John Hodgman, Tina Fey, Christopher Guest, Jeffrey Tambor, and Jason Bateman.

Trailer for The Invention of Lying Hits

26 June 2009 2:39 PM, PDT | From TheMovingPicture.net | See recent TheMovingPicture news

The first trailer for Ricky Gervais’ latest comedy The Invention of Lying has been released online. Co-written and co-directed by Gervais and Matthew Robinson, the film boasts quite the impressive cast of Jennifer Garner, Jonah Hill, Louis C.K., John Hodgman, Tina Fey, Christopher Guest, Jeffrey Tambor, Nate Corddry, Patrick Stewart, Rob Lowe and Jason Bateman. It opens September 25, 2009. 'The Invention of Lying' takes place in an alternate reality in which lying doesn’t exist. Everyone from politicians to advertisers, to the man and woman on the street speaks the truth and nothing but the truth with no thought of the consequences. But when a down-on-his-luck loser named Mark (Gervais) suddenly develops the ability to lie, he finds that dishonesty has its rewards.

Ricky Gervais’s The Invention of Lying Trailer

26 June 2009 12:46 PM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news

Well this is a pleasant surprise for a Friday afternoon! The first trailer for the co-writing/co-directorial debut of British comedian Ricky Gervais, The Invention of Lying, has just arrived online. I've been excited to see what he can do with a movie that he has actually written himself since I was pretty disappointed with his first starring vehicle Ghost Town. It looks like there is a good chance this will make up for it, although I must admit, the trailer does play a little dry and obvious. Fortunately, the concept has so much potential and the supporting cast is so impressive that I'm already sold. The Invention of Lying takes place in a world where everyone tells the truth, even if it means hurting someone's feelings... because, well, they don't know any better! In this world, the concept of lying hasn't been invented yet, but Ricky Gervais plays a

Watch This: First Trailer For The Invention Of Lying

26 June 2009 10:09 AM, PDT | From FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news

Yahoo has delivered our first peek at the trailer for Ricky Gervais and Matt Robinson’s The Invention of Lying. Gervais will star alongside a smörgåsbord of talent including Tina Fey, Jonah Hill, Jeffrey Tambor, Jason Bateman and many more. To match a fantastic cast we have a truly original concept, as Mark (Gervais) inhabits a world where no one has ever lied, so when he discovers the ability, everyone believes everything he says. The trailer delivers on this promise and, quite honestly, it looks hilarious. We see hints at nearly everyone in the huge cast, but it's merely a tease and, by golly, it worked because I want to see this now. We don't get much plot, which I think is for the better, as the idea is great enough to get people in the door. I just hope it's successful since Gervais still isn't a huge name in America. Hopefully

Trailer - The 'Arrested Development' Documentary

14 June 2009 12:10 PM, PDT | From GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news

Until we get a new Arrested Development movie - which depending on who you listen to, is on the way sooner than later - we can always reminisce about this high watermark of television comedy through Hulu or by awaiting a new documentary about the show.

Director Jeff Smith created the website ArrestedDevelopmentDoc.com, which provides updates on the status of the project. He's interviewed everyone from Ron Howard and Brian Grazer to cast members Jason Bateman, Tony Hale, Will Arnett, Portia Dirossi, David Cross, Jeffrey Tambor, and more. There are no clips of the the show in the trailer, so that might be a rights issue.

There's no release date or anything, but Smith updated the project a couple of months ago saying that he's wrapped production. Hopefully it'll get a run sooner than later. Check out the latest trailer for The Arrested Development Documentary Project:

'The Hangover'

8 June 2009 12:05 PM, PDT | From CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news

In America, there is the soft R rating for films like Michael Clayton, Shakespeare in Love and The Station Agent; all critically approved films that, but for a few profanities or some brief nudity, would be safe for the PG-13 viewing masses. And then there is The Hangover, a film that gleefully gives the finger to the MPAA and anyone with a sense of propriety.

My conservative parents would weep knowing that their daughter saw such a film, and they’d be even sadder to know that she really, really liked it.

Old School director Todd Philips undoubtedly ups the ante with this raunchy comedy. For anyone who was disgusted by shots of a running, naked Will Ferrell in the director’s previous film, The Hangover shows far more of bearded comedian Zach Galifianakis than should be legally allowed. And the alcohol-fueled, frat-boy humor of Old School looks like Hannah Montana: The Movie

The Hangover Review

4 June 2009 10:35 PM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news

The Hangover Directed by: Todd Phillips Written by: Jon Lucas, Scott Moore Starring: Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Heather Graham, Ken Jeong, Justin Bartha, Jeffrey Tambor, Mike Tyson Although the summer has become primarily the domain of special effects blockbusters, there will always be high demand for a few solid feel-good comedies as well. While the ones with the biggest stars inevitably tend to get the most attention, this year it may be a different story. The Hangover does not have an Adam Sandler or Will Ferrell to rely on to bring in the crowds, so instead, it has been forced to build buzz the old fashioned way: by being hilarious. To be fair, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and Zach Galifianakis are not entirely unknown (Ed Helms currently stars in The Office, while Cooper is known for his roles in Alias and movies like Wedding Crashers and Yes Man

The Hangover Review

4 June 2009 8:58 PM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

Short version: Who would have thought? The Hangover is a crude, crass comedy that manages to be smart at the same time - oh, and funny as hell.

Screen Rant reviews The Hangover

When you start laughing about 30 seconds into a movie, that’s usually a good sign.

The plot of The Hangover is very simple: Three buddies (and one tag-along) head to Las Vegas to celebrate the impending marriage of one of their own with a bachelor party weekend. They get so incredibly blasted on the night of their arrival that they don’t remember a single thing that happened - of course maximum mayhem ensued during the evening, and they must piece together because the groom-to-be has gone missing.

 

Now I’m pretty finicky when it comes to comedies, especially the R-rated variety. “Stupid-funny” doesn’t work for me at all, so based on some of what I

Tambor To Be A Dad Of Twins At 64

4 June 2009 9:20 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

Comedy actor Jeffrey Tambor is to be a father again at the age of 64 - his wife Kasia Ostlun is expecting twin boys.

The new arrivals will be little brothers for the couple's four-year-old son Gabriel.

Tambor, the star of Arrested Development and The Larry Sanders Show, made the big announcement on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on Wednesday night, admitting, "I'm very excited."

And he revealed the moment he discovered Ostlun, 41, was expecting twin boys, telling show host Ferguson, "They are boys. She called me, and all I heard was 'two pee pees'."

But Tambor concedes there are downsides to the happy news - he's suffering a phantom pregnancy: "I'm developing all the symptoms my wife has. She gets a headache, I get a headache. She gets gas, I get gas."

Tambor also has a 34-year-old daughter, Molly, from a previous relationship.
