The Change-Up Trailer Made Me Spit Out the Precious

And by the precious, I mean my 16 ounce sugar-free Red Bull. Maybe you don’t like it, but it is precious…to…me. I digress. The Change-Up, sliding into theaters on August 5, 2011, looks like Freaky Friday got in a head-on collision with a porno movie, and for a guy like me, who loves Urban Dictionary.com, this movie looks like pure win. Be forewarned though, the trailer below is of the redband variety, which means your boss might not appreciate words

Green Lantern Trailer has Landed and I’m Not Impressed

I have a man-crush on Ryan Reynolds, I love superheroes and I dig the summer box office, but color me not impressed with the first Green Lantern trailer. I realize this is a teaser trailer, but nothing in this preview hooked me – not even Reynolds’ trademark snark. I am going to go out on a limb and say this movie is headed for disaster. Sorry DC Comics and Green Lantern fans. This looks super boring. Check out the trailer

Trailer Tuesday: Buried

Buried has a simple premise: Being buried alive would suck. Being buried alive in Iraq would be even suckier. Debuted at Sundance ’10 and picked up by Lionsgate for a fall release, Buried follows a U.S. civilian (Ryan Reynolds) who is buried in the Iraqi desert after his contractor outfit is attacked. Word is, the film mostly takes place in the box, but is loaded with twists and turns– which should make both claustrophobic and twistaphobic audiences all kinds of

Trailer Tuesday: Ryan Reynolds in Buried

I figured I’d follow Dan’s lead today and post a trailer for a film playing up in Park City, Utah at the Sundance Film Festival. This one, Buried, stars my mancrush, Ryan Reynolds, as a contractor in Iraq who is buried alive after his convoy comes under attack in Iraq. I’m assuming his kidnappers/gravediggers are nasty terrorists because they only leave him with a cell phone and a shitty flashlight, instead of fruit snacks and a juice box that would

The Proposal (***)

I won’t lie. It’s hard for me to give “The Proposal,” the new romantic comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, a bad review. In fact, it’s not even hard – it’s impossible. We’re not talking Oscars here, by any means, but I think thus far the movie is getting a raw deal from some cantankerous critics. As of this writing, the movie sits at 53% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.com, but I think anyone giving a bad review is a

Deadpool: Lamely Named Wolverine Ancillary Gets a Movie

If you saw X-men Origins: Wolverine, you’ll remember fan-favorite character Deadpool as played by Ryan Reynolds, the wise-crackin’ mercenary who leaves his victims all dead and stuff, but with a  smile on their faces. If you stuck around* through the end-credits , you’d know there might be some surprises in store for Deadpool… and Variety has reported that indeed there are. Apparently, one of the reasons Ryan Reynolds was given the role was to spin it off into its own
