Excuse Me While I Die

This is all my dreams coming true.  Every. Single. One.  I can't contain the fangirl glee.  I can't wait until August.  The Bourne Legacy.  Jeremy Renner.  My god.  I'm simply going to spontaneously combust!

This. Is. Happening.

Oh Happy Day

The trailer for The Bourne Legacy was released today, along with the poster, and of course it was the day I was all tied up and away from my Google Reader.  That's OK, I've made up for it by watching it at least 14 times.  Thank god for good friends like Bobby Z who keep me updated on the latest breaking Jeremy Renner news.

Come for the Renner, stay for the beard at the end.  And the Inception-esque music.  I'm psyched!!!!

Can I also be excited because Stacy Keach is in it?  Because I AM!      

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Exes: YES!

Thanks to Kim for the reminder to check this preview out.  Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Exes.  This looks epic.  Some thoughts: Abram and Cara Maria broke up.  Shocker.  Who did Sarah bang?  Jesus, Robin, stop doing shows and go raise your kid.  Looks like even more drama than usual - and it's the kind of show they could do for 50 years because they have quite the pool to choose from - PLUS I really like that Arctic setting at the end - normally they're all about the tropical locations, but I really like the idea of these idiots freezing to death.  Hope it's awesome (and that I remember to watch it)!

MTV Shows

21 Jump Street

I probably don't want to admit how many times I laughed at the new red band trailer for 21 Jump Street.  So I won't.

This Has To Happen

Before it gets yanked again, check out Jesse Pinkman dropping by Dunder Mifflin. Love it.

I Heart Andy Dwyer

And these are just some of the reasons why....

God I Hate Tom Cruise

But this is the only "Tom Cruise movie" I look forward to seeing. Ever. Guess why. Unf.

Happy Morning

Time for another installment of Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis - with Will Ferrell and a special guest!

NBC Generally Sucks

But I'll give these 2 shows a shot and see how badly they can screw them up....

First, Grimm - which kind of does look like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, minus Buffy and the high school, but with the same kind of demon-next-door vibe.



And then Awake which looks troubling, depressing, and hella intriguing. The trailer kind of blew my mind a little. But I know there's got to be some way they'll screw it up. Looking forward to finding out how they do it.

Alcatraz: I'm In

I don't know what this show is about, or how it can sustain itself. But I'm obsessed with Alcatraz -- it's literally my Favorite Place on Earth. So I'll watch it. Plus Sam Neill! I'm in for the Fall!

Link here cuz the embed's acting wonky.

X-Men: First Class

I'm all in on this movie. This is the international trailer which for some reason is better than the U.S. trailer. I thought America was the greatest country in the world? I can't get enough of the music used in this - gotta hunt it down. This movie better be good! It has Michael Fassbender and Rose Byrne - how can it be bad? I'm geeking out over the classic X-Men suits too!

Trailer of the Week

I'm all in on this X-Men: First Class movie!!! All in!!!! I really love that it's set in the '60s - it somehow makes it even cooler. It just looks so classic. And I LOVE me some Michael Fassbender. Love him. His Magneto's gonna be awesome.

I Love Random Stuff

The Under Underground series is always good on Saturday Night Live. Holy crap - this one had me on the floor crying. Literally!

Between this and some kickass Eminem performances, this is shaping up to be a good episode!

I Love FOX

I love that FOX has made a parody commercial about Fringe's new Friday Death Slot. This gives me hope, OK?

Green Lantern Trailer

En espanol... let's hope this kicks ass, OK? I'm a Ryan Reynolds fan anyway, but this looks killer. I'm excited!



Edited to add: Trailer on Apple now. All English, the way god intended.

Unstoppable

I thought I had seen every action movie setup known to man. There was even that one movie where the refrigerated truck had to stay cold, wasn't there? But here's a new one: a runaway train. I'd love to say Unstoppable was about more than a runaway train, but... it really wasn't.

Don't get me wrong, I actually loved this movie. Like, really enjoyed it for what it was. But that's not to say I wasn't laughing half the time. Sometimes it felt like a big joke Tony Scott and Denzel Washington were pulling on Hollywood. Like they didn't think anyone would actually fund it and then, when they did, they had to go through with it. But even if it were a joke, those 2 know how to make a movie. Throw in Chris Pine as the young whippersnapper and Rosario Dawson and Kevin Corrigan to make me happy and you've got the makings of a good movie.

A lot of the movie is told through news reports, and sometimes that gets annoying. It relies on the news for a lot of exposition. But then you realize that, really, that's the age we live in. News reporters would be on the scene quickly, news helicopters would be flying inches from the speeding train, and there would be computer animations of impending explosions.

Unstoppable has all of the action movie cliches, only this time with trains. This parody from Saturday Night Live is pretty dead-on. And you've gotta love it for the mindless fun.

Saturday Night Live Commercials Are Still Good

Saturday Night Live has been 90% crappy this season, but I loved the 2 fake commercials from this weekend.

I know some babies who could have used these.



And this one goes out to KP.

Oh Happy Day

A new "Between Two Ferns" with Zach Galifianakis -- starring Bruce Willis! (Some brief NSFW language)

The Boob Apron

I've never seen the real commercial for this thing that is essentially a napkin you stuff down your bra. But I love this parody! (Some NSFW language, if you're a pussy.)
