Take Me Home Tonight, aside from being a really shitty Eddie Money song (wait – is there such a thing as a good Eddie Money song?) that makes me want to put a gun to my head, is also the title of a forthcoming return-to-the-80s comedy starring the affable and lovable Topher Grace (Predators) and Anna Faris (Yogi Bear). As a side note, Take Me Home Tonight also stars Teresa Palmer, whom I am seriously crushing on after watching the not-as-crappy-as-I-assumed summer …

With the Golden Globes and Academy Awards a few months away, it’s that time of year again where every film critics association begins to name the year’s best.

Happy Thursday, AATM readers! I hope you enjoy this installment of, ah, Trailer Tuesday. I’ve been behind on posting goodies because it’s awards season and I’m up to my ears in screener DVDs sent from hopeful studios. The Utah Film Critics Association votes in a few weeks on the best of 2010, so I’ll make sure to share our chosen winners, as well as my ballot and who I picked. Hard to believe another year is almost in the rear …
