I don’t give a rat’s patootie if “Surrogates” is based on a graphic novel (all the rage nowadays), because any movie that has Bruce Willis with “hair” should be flushed down the marketing toilet pronto. This movie is and will be pure crap. Mark my words. I’m sorry, but I just can’t get over that cringe-inducing hairpiece on John McClaine. And who thought golden blonde would be a great choice? Man oh man oh man. Terrible.

Wah-waaaaaaaah. Yeah, so Sunday numbers were finally sorted out and as fate would have it, The Hangover bested Pixar’s UP with $45 million. And while that makes The Hangover the number one moneymaker over the weekend, it still doesn’t change the fact that here at AATM, we still know everything and were right up to about4 hours ago.
There are certain movies that should never get a sequel, regardless of how beloved the film is or how well it did at the box office. This declaration can be a tough proposal, because selfishly I want some stories to continue, however convoluted and stretched they might become. On the flip side, I also know that my selfishness can lead to crappy sequels and the pollution and tainting of the original. That’s why my feelings about “The Descent 2” are …
My unabashed love for “The Hangover” is akin to Dan’s love of “District 9,” so taking a page from his book, I will acknowledge my adoration, but I will not apologize. No, sir! And with that, here’s Mike Tyson singing along to Phil Collins “In the Air Tonight” in an extended “The Hangover” preview. Enjoy!
If you simply cannot wait until November and must have your fix of Christmas festivity in June, then keep reading, because next week, on June 16th, Disney is rolling, literally, into Ogden with its “A Christmas Carol” train tour. Yessirree, the Robert Zemeckis-directed “multi-sensory event” hits theaters on November 6, 2009, but someone at Disney and Hewlett Packard thought it would be the shiz niz to chug on down the tracks, stopping in sixteen cities to promote the Jim Carrey-as-Ebenezer-Scrooge …
I watched “The Hangover’s” Bradley Cooper on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and this bit they did called “Bad Guys, Good Conversation” was pretty funny. I love that he is Johnny from “The Karate Kid” and I love that Bill Hader is Buffalo Bill from “Silence of the Lambs.” Enjoy the clip!
Yes, I know The Hangover exceeded expectations. Yes, I know I’m in the minority for giving it two stars. But that wasn’t because this gold-plated impromptu piano ditty. Unfortunately, to make it all-ages appropriate, the trailer sloppily cuts the abrupt, song concluding s-bomb, which is really what made the song all the more endearing. Cussing or not, this sweet number reminds me of an Andy Samberg/Adam Sandler/Jimmy Fallon sing-along and there ain’t nothin’ wrong with that. Please, meditate in the …
Better late than never. Just when I think I’d rather take Indian burns to the tenders than endure more of Will Ferrell’s deadpan-obvious doofus shtick, I forgo the pain of a thousand suns and willingly settle into comedic familiarity. Which means A) I’m not as tired of Will Ferrell as I thought, or B) Will Ferrell remains funny despite diminishing returns. After viewing Land of the Lost, I’m convinced it’s “B”. If you didn’t exist in the magical time period …
