The sequel to 2003's population-booming comedy sees Steve Martin and his 12 raucous offspring, headed by teen queen Hilary Duff, return for another serving of family mayhem. This time the brood are on holiday when they meet up with Eugene Levy's troupe of tearaways - and battle commences between the two competitive dads. The pairing of Levy and Martin is an inspired one and fans of the original will consider it cheap at twice the price. »

Best In Show Blu-ray Review

27 April 2013 6:38 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

Christopher Guest is one of a kind.  The writer/director/producer/actor carved out a niche of his own in the filmmaking community with the brilliant 1984 comedy This Is Spinal Tap, directed by Rob Reiner, and went on to helm a string of comedy hits himself in his distinctive “mockumentary” vein.  Though all of his films have something great and unique to offer, there’s something particularly special about 2000’s Best in Show.  The film’s characters are ridiculous and at times loathesome, but there’s a sincerity to the picture that prevents things from ever becoming too cynical.  The result is a delightfully hilarious comedy classic.  Hit the jump for my review of Best in Show on Blu-ray. The Film  With Best in Show, Guest takes his “mockumentary” style to the world of prestigious dogs shows.  In a style that has since become commonplace, the camera work is staged like a documentary, »

American Pie: Reunion

26 April 2013 1:31 AM, PDT | Sky Movies | See recent Sky Movies news »

The original American Pie gang return, older but definitely none the wiser, for a high school reunion that lets everyone party likes it’s 1999 - again. Jason Biggs is back as well-meaning, accident prone Jim, joined by Alyson Hannigan as his flute-loving wife Michelle for more sticky situations involving inappropriate parenting and an array of compromising positions. With Jim's dad (Eugene Levy) offering more dubious advice and Seann William Scott’s Stifler as loud 'n' proud as ever, the scatological silliness is poured thick and creamy over this last slice of Pie. »

What's Your Favorite Quote From Best in Show?

10 April 2013 3:05 AM, PDT | BuzzSugar | See recent BuzzSugar news »

Christopher Guest is the mastermind behind some of the funniest films ever, and 2000's Best in Show is hands down one of my favorites. Jane Lynch, Jennifer Coolidge, Catherine O'Hara, Parker Posey, and Eugene Levy are just a few of the hilarious actors in the mockumentary about a competitive dog show. I've listed some of my favorite lines below, but what are yours? "We could not talk or talk forever and still find things to not talk about." - Sherri Ann Cabot "We met at Starbucks. Not at the same Starbucks, but we saw each other at different Starbucks across the street from each other." - Meg Swan "Peanut. Hazelnut. Cashew nut. Macadamia nut . . . " - Harlan Pepper »

Blu-ray Review: Howlingly Funny ‘Best in Show’ is a Comic Masterpiece

8 March 2013 2:49 PM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Chicago – The more one is familiar with the art of improv, the more one is bound to fall head over heels in love with the mockumentaries of Christopher Guest. Working from a mere scene outline, Guest and his ensemble of top-drawer comedians bring a colorful assortment of richly eccentric oddballs to life. Their ad-libbed dialogue is infinitely funnier than scripted punchlines since it emerges organically from their character’s own warped worldview.

2000’s “Best in Show” is Guest’s most merciless satire and also his funniest. It ranks right alongside “Bringing Up Baby,” “Young Frankenstein” and “Airplane!” as one of the greatest comedies ever made. It has stood the test of time, proving to be funnier with each subsequent viewing, while providing viewers with countless quotable lines and a wealth of side-splitting sequences. Few comedies in the last decade have delivered as many genuine laughs.

Blu-ray Rating: 5.0/5.0

Of course, a »

Happy Birthday, Catherine O'Hara! What's Her Greatest Onscreen Moment?

4 March 2013 11:31 AM, PST | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

I can't relate to Home Alone because I have no idea what it's like to take Catherine O'Hara for granted.

The legendary comic actress of Sctv, Beetlejuice, the Christopher Guest oeuvre, and (of course) Heartburn turns 59 today, and she may be one of the most universally adored funny people ever. Is it even possible to dislike Catherine O'Hara? You are less of a human being for however much you attempt to dislike Catherine O'Hara. It's an outrageous suggestion, and it should be parodied in a Christopher Guest film.

So, what's Ms. O'Hara's greatest moment?

One contender is certainly her work in the mockumentary A Mighty Wind, where she plays one half of the folk duo Mitch and Mickey. With Eugene Levy, O'Hara trills the pair's signature hit "A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow," and at the song's poignant climax, the two reenact their classic, melody-interrupting kiss. The moment »

Paul Weitz on American Pie 5

27 February 2013 10:41 PM, PST | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

News Simon Brew 28 Feb 2013 - 06:40

The co-director of the first American Pie movie gives an update as to where things are with the franchise...

Paul Weitz, along with his brother Chris, may only have directed the first American Pie movie, but he's had an executive producer credit ever since, and has had some kind of involvement with the subsequent movies. Although we don't blame him for the straight to DVD adventures.

Weitz, who's promoting his new movie Admission, was chatting to The Hollywood Reporter, and they asked him about the talk of American Pie 5. "I'm happy that keeps on going", he said. "I imagine [there will be]. I think this one kind of benefited from being seven years since the last one, so there's a curiosity factor".

So: just how involved does Universal make him in the sequels? "It kind of happens where they tell me about it, and I go 'Neat'. »

Steve Martin Reportedly Becomes A Dad At 67

13 February 2013 5:59 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Steve Martin has reportedly become a first-time dad at 67.

According to the New York Post, Martin and his wife of almost six years, Anne Stringfield, 41, welcomed a baby in December. The couple was allegedly spotted outside of their Los Angeles home with their brand-new bundle of joy.

“They’ve had a baby, and how they kept it a secret nobody knows," a source told the NY Post, adding that “Steve’s very private."

"They are thrilled," the insider continued, "They worked hard to have the baby.”

Martin and Stringfield were together for three years before they tied the knot in a secret wedding ceremony in July 2007. Guests, including actors Tom Hanks, Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy, were invited to Martin's house for a party, but the pair surprised them all with the ensuing nuptials.

Congrats to the Martins! »

Jennifer Aniston Joins Owen Wilson In Peter Bogdanovich's She's Funny That Way

11 February 2013 7:28 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

In the 1970s, Peter Bogdanovich was in his prime, churning out engaging and celebrated cinema like bleak drama The Last Picture Show and con man comedy Paper Moon. Lately Bogdanovich has been working more often as an actor and professor than as a director. But finally, after a 12 year sabbatical from narrative film, Bogdanovich is prepping his follow-up to the 2001 historical conspiracy comedy The Cat's Meow. Formerly known as Squirrel to Nuts, this new comedy called She's Funny That Way stars Owen Wilson as a married Broadway producer whose head is turned by a prostitute turned aspiring actress, whom he decides to help in her newly minted career. THR reports Jennifer Aniston has just joined the cast that already includes Jason Schwartzman, Cybill Shepherd, Eugene Levy, Kathryn Hahn and Brie Larson. As 21 Jump Street's Larson was among the earliest cast, I'm suspecting she'll play the aforementioned female lead. For her »

11 February 2013 5:00 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Jennifer Aniston has been heating up the sales over in Berlin this past week at the European Film Market. She recently officially signed on for Convention alongside Mark Duplass and Ben Kingsley. And now the ever-brilliant actress has signed on for Peter Bogdanovich’s next feature, She’s Funny That Way.

Previously titled Squirrels to the Nuts (which I think is an amazing title, and am pretty gutted that it’s since been changed), the project already has Owen Wilson and Brie Larson attached for the leading roles.

“The film centres on a married Broadway director (Wilson) who falls for a prostitute-turned-actress and works to help her advance her career.”

Along with Wilson, Larson, and now Aniston, the film is set to star Jason Schwartzman, Eugene Levy, Cybill Sherpherd, and Kathryn Hahn
