Trailers and Clips for a Ton of New Shows on NBC
14 May 2012 3:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
NBC has released a bunch of trailers and clips for a new collection of TV series that they have been developing. We've got stuff from 1600 Penn, Infamous, Save Me, Next Caller, Do No Harm, The New Normal, Guys With Kids, and Go On. It will be interesting to what shows make it and what shows end up on the chopping block. Check out the trailers and clips and let us know which ones look good to you!
1600 Penn:
“1600 Penn” — The Gilchrists are just the average American family dealing with all the everyday issues – like a grown kid who’s forced to move back home, children who are smarter than their teachers and a stepmom (Jenna Elfman, “Dharma and Greg”) desperately trying to win over the kids. They’re loving, fun and a little crazy. In other words, just like everybody else. With one exception: they live in a very special house. »

De Niro & Douglas To Headline 'Last Vegas'
13 May 2012 8:24 PM, PDT | FilmInk.com.au | See recent FilmInk.com.au news »
In a film that sounds very much like The Hangover, but featuring four guys pushing seventy, CBS films is reportedly prepping Last Vegas, a comedy about four old friends who decide to throw a Las Vegas bachelor party for the only one among them who hasn't tied the knot yet. Directed by Jon Turteltaub (who has directed the National Treasure films, as well as The Kid, While You Were Sleeping and Cool Runnings) and with a screenplay penned by Dan Fogelman (who wrote last year's hit, Crazy Stupid Love), the story has Michael Douglas confirmed to play the soon-to-be-former bachelor and Robert De Niro as his party-averse friend who reluctantly makes the trip to-re-unite with his pals. »
Robert De Niro and Michael Douglas making The Hangover with old people, basically

For those who enjoyed The Hangover but wish it had more pensive reflections on mortality and Cialis jokes, CBS Films is prepping Last Vegas, a comedy about four older men throwing a Las Vegas bachelor party for the group's final unmarried holdout. Jon Turteltaub—of National Treasure and While You Were Sleeping—will utilize his talents for contrivance and sentiment on a story that so far has confirmed Michael Douglas as the soon-to-be-former bachelor and Robert De Niro as his "party-averse" pal (and former romantic rival) who reluctantly comes along and says cranky, modern-day De Niro things.

Bob and Mike: In an unlikely teaming for a bachelor party comedy, Robert De Niro (above, in Casino) and Michael Douglas will play longtime friends in Last Vegas. Douglas will pretend to be a lifelong bachelor who is finally getting married, while De Niro will be a “party-averse” pal. Will be it The Hangover for seniors? The wildly inconsistent Jon Turteltaub (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, While You Were Sleeping) will direct based on a script by Dan Fogelman (Crazy, Stupid, Love.). [Deadline] Time-Traveling Lover: Turning from romantic drama (The Vow) to romantic comedy, Rachel McAdams is in negotiations to star in About Time.

Robert De Niro Confirmed to Join Michael Douglas in Comedy Last Vegas
10 May 2012 4:52 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Last month, we reported development on a comedy called Last Vegas. The script was written by Dan Fogelman (Crazy, Stupid, Love.), and is essentially The Hangover with old people. The story centers on four old friends who decide to throw a Las Vegas bachelor party for the only one of them who has remained single. Michael Douglas is onboard to play the lifelong bachelor, and we had previously heard that Robert De Niro was in talks to join the cast. CBS Films announced today that De Niro has closed his deal to play the party-averse Paddy Connelly, who reluctantly agrees to fly to Vegas at the request of his friends. The character of a curmudgeonly older gentleman who isn’t fond of jokes or partying should be quite the stretch for De Niro. Jon Turtletaub (National Treasure) is set to direct, and we previously heard that Christopher Walken may be circling a role as well. »

Blu-ray Review: Strong Set For Disappointing ‘Torchwood: Miracle Day’
12 April 2012 4:49 PM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – When “Torchwood: Miracle Day” premiered on Starz, I was completely up for the ride. My 4/5 review displayed a little bit of concern given that the show was often 5/5 in its original BBC America airings (and in the brilliant “Children of Earth”) but I held out hope that the show would iron out its wrinkles and deliver on the potential of its clever set-up. In fact, the opposite happened. Stretched to meet a running time that the writers couldn’t deliver on and ultimately cheesy where the original “Torchwood” had been edgy, “Miracle Day” is a disappointment. The Blu-ray release is still strong and there are some things to like here, but only diehard fans should apply (see every episode and “Children” before this…twice) and they’ll likely be the most disappointed.
Blu-ray Rating: 3.0/5.0
What works about “Miracle Day”? The premise — that everyone stopped dying one day and how »

Mouse House: Upcoming Blu-ray Titles from Disney To Be Released
2 April 2012 7:53 AM, PDT | FusedFilm | See recent FusedFilm news »
It seems like these days the possibilities are endless in how film fans can enjoy their favorites at home, from renting through Netflix to downloading online via Amazon. But perhaps the most rewarding format – well, for this old-fashioned guy, at least – is to purchase the movie on Blu-ray. While many major studios – including Disney – have generally decreased the amount of bonus features and other special content offered on home video, this company consistently delivers an overall strong value to their Blu-ray releases. In this edition of the Mouse House, I’ll as share some thoughts on yet-to-be-released Blu-ray offerings.
Coming Soon (Announced)
Recently Disney announced over 30 titles from their library – some of them classics, others surprisingly forgettable – to be released on Blu-ray for the first time this year. Many also hold the title of “anniversary” editions, celebrating 10, 15, 20 years or more since their original debuts.

Discuss: Who, If Any, Of The Current Crop Of Leading Ladies Are Reliable Box-Office Draws?
23 March 2012 12:27 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
At the start of the week, we examined the state of the A-list leading man, and why, outside of those who've been big draws for years -- Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Johnny Depp et al. -- so few stars seemed to be reliable at bringing audiences to their pictures. But when you look at the leading ladies, things are even more puzzling.
Put simply, the number of actreses who can be deemed consistent box office draws seems to diminish, rather than grow, as each year goes on. In part, it's because it's so rare for the major blockbusters to be lead by a woman: of the top 20 worldwide grossers last year, only "Twilight" could arguably be said to be led by a woman, and holding up those films as a victory for womankind would be an error, given their prehistoric sexual politics. 2010 was a little better, thanks to "Black Swan" and "Alice in Wonderland, »
