Curb Your Enthusiasm Video: The Chat and Cut

Where are my Curb Your Enthusiasm fans at?  I have experienced every single episode of this hysterical HBO series, and I am hoping that Larry David comes back for a ninth (and more) season.  Originally known for being the creator of “Seinfeld”, Larry David brings his George Costanza-type humor (you knew George’s character was based off Larry in real life, right?) to the streets of Los Angeles, where his extremely blunt and sarcastic personality seem to always get himself in trouble.  The guy is a flat-out comical genius, and if you haven’t seen this show, you’re wrong.

Gravity Official Movie Trailer

I love sci-fi movies.  Star Wars got me hooked as a kid, and my two most recent favorites have got to be TRON: Legacy and Prometheus.  Gravity is a new space thriller that will hit local theaters this October, with George Clooney and Sandra Bullock starring as the two astronauts who get flung out into space after the International Space Station explodes.  The trailer above has me interested, but I’m scratching my head as to how you can make a movie out of this; I guess having two Oscar award winners will help, but the trailer doesn’t show much else.  It makes me think of the film Open Water, which films a recently-wed couple that gets stranded in the ocean, only to be, well, I won’t spoil it for ya.  Enjoy the trailer, and hit the link below for a fun Frommer’s fact about Gravity’s director.

The Best of Archer Video Compilation

According to the show’s creator, Adam Reed, “Archer” can be described as “James Bond meets Arrested Development”.  As a huge fan of both, I can emphatically say that if you haven’t seen this incredibly hilarious show yet, you’re wrong.  Since its inception in 2010, Archer has stormed up the ratings charts not only on FX, but on television, and just recently completed its fourth season on the air, with a fifth already signed and on the books.  That’s news that makes this guy smile.

Game of Game of Thrones SNL Video

SNL has been down for years now, so it is truly rare to get a quality episode these days.  Those great or even simply good episodes are always centered around a dynamic celebrity host, as the current cast simply lacks true star, comedic power.  It seems that as soon as a comedian on the cast emerges, they leave for bigger and better TV deals and/or movies, but who can blame them?  Zach Galifianakis, the driving star behind the stellar “Hangover” films, took the SNL helm as host this past Saturday night, and he did not disappoint.  Arguably the best skit of the show came as Zach appeared as a contestant on the game show, “Game of Game of Thrones”, with Bill Hader starring as the host.  Although it’s no “Celebrity Jeopardy” with Will Ferrell and Darrell Hammond, it had that same feel to it – as well as the laughs.

Red 2 Movie Trailer

Everyone has at least one or two movies that you weren’t able to catch in theaters, and for whatever reason they still remain elusive.  Red, which originally debuted in 2010 and starred Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, is one of those movies, and now I am in “urgent watch” mode because Red 2, with its official trailer above, will hit theaters this coming July.  There’s still plenty of time, but this now series looks too good to pass up.  John Malkovich looks hysterical, and Anthony Hopkins looks like he may be making a Tom Cruise/Les Grossman cameo/supporting actor … okay, maybe not Les Grossman-good, but it looks like Hannibal Lector may be stealing the show.  Looking forward to July!

Arrested Development: First Clip from Season 4

Is it May 26th yet?  If you’ve never seen the epic television series that is Arrested Development, then you have approximately 27.5 days to catch up.  Oh, you’re going to need $8 bucks for a digital subscription to Netflix, because the long-awaited fourth season won’t be airing anywhere else.  Embedded above you’ll find a clip that was originally released only to the media back in January, but now stands as the first official new Bluth family footage since the end of season three.  Enjoy the exclusive outtake, and hit the link below for more AR memories.

Real Life Goldeneye 64 Video

Like my eloquent sidekick mentioned in our “what the heck is slightlyqualified.com page“, I have an affinity for Goldeneye 64, and by affinity I mean addiction.  I don’t know how I missed this extremely well done parody of the game, especially seeing how it already has more than 1M views, but I’d wager if I haven’t seen it, then others haven’t either.  Enjoy the awesome Goldeneye 64 parody video, and hit the link below for more behind the scenes footage!

Now You See Me TV Spot

How people are still into magicians is beyond me; the whole “magic show” thing faded off my interest list as a kid right around the time I realized that the WWF (now WWE) was fake, and for the same reasons.  Regardless, dudes still enjoy putting on those goofy, glittery, full-bodied leotards and getting on stage in front of at times, thousands of paying customers.  It’s pretty amazing, really.  Well, there’s a new magician/heist thriller en route to your local theater on May 31st entitled, Now You See Me, starring an impressive list of stars that should equate to a decent showing at the box office: Morgan Freeman, Jesse Eikenberg (who still looks like Mark Zuckerberg), Isla Fisher, and Michael Caine.  Based on this brand new TV spot that was released hours ago today, the film looks more along the lines of an “Oceans 1x” movie, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, however while this magic meets bank robber flick may boast a solid cast, it has nothing on the Oceans films.

Mud Movie Trailer

Mud stars Reese Witherspoon, and lead actor Matthew McConaughey as they both attempt to escape a Mississippi island as they are hunted by bounty hunters and state police.  Reese Witherspoon may look like her recent mugshot (too soon?), however this movie looks like it will be a great one.  The trailer above starts off a little slow, but to quote the infamous Ron Burgandy, “that escalated quickly!”  Mud hits theaters tomorrow, and this one has intrigued me just enough where I am going to try and convince the lady that we should be there. And for all zero of our lady readers out there, yes, Mr. McConaughey does take his shirt off in this trailer.  Calm down.

Texas Fertilizer Plant Explosion Video

This has been a tragic week here in America, with major tragedy after major tragedy hitting across America.  Just yesterday, after all of the sad events in Boston, came a devastating explosion from a major fertilizer plant near Waco, Texas.  As of this afternoon, news agencies are reporting that more than 160 people have been injured as a result of the blast, and a team of firefighters are still missing.  The city’s Mayor, Tommy Muska, compared the fertilizer plant explosion to a “nuclear bomb”; you can check out the most recent news story here courtesy of CNN.  The embedded video above is a stunning, yet very scary personal video from what appears to be a father and his young son or daughter that are within a mile of the plant right before the explosion rips through the town.  I truly hope everyone is okay; this event was just absolutely horrendous.

The Iceman Movie Trailer

Ray Liotta, mob movie.  That’s all Hollywood movie studios need to say in their movie trailer to literally guarantee millions of dollars of box office revenue from pretty much the entire male population in America.  The Iceman hits theaters soon on May 3rd, and it features a rather unique cast, at least in terms of your typical mob flick.  Outside of Ray Liotta, who arguably defined the genre, and Michael Shannon, who just looks great in a mob role, did anyone else raise an eyebrow when they say Winona Rider, Chris Evans, and James Franco on the main cast credits line?  Don’t get me wrong, Chris Evans and James Franco are great (not a huge Winona fan), but neither stand out to me for this type of movie.  Sure, Mr. Evans has done some action flicks, but this appears to be an out of the ordinary film for him, and with the film’s almost sure success, will really help round out his career.  The film looks dark, gruesome, and Ray Liotta: you don’t need to tell me much else for me to go see it.  Now convincing my wife to go see it with me … that’s a different story.
