Mars Needs Moms Movie Trailer is Out of This World

Does the title Mars Needs Moms ring a bell for you? It’s the name of a new Disney animated film and it should be pretty self-explanatory. The film is directed by Simon Wells and is scheduled to hit theaters on March 11, 2011. The studio has released the first trailer for the space-family adventure and it’s interesting to say the least. Check it out for yourself…

Official Synopsis:

Take out the trash, eat your broccoli—who needs moms, anyway? Nine-year-old Milo (Seth Green) finds out just how much he needs his mom (Joan Cusack) when she’s nabbed by Martians who plan to steal her mom-ness for their own young. Produced by the team behind “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” and “The Polar Express,” “Mars Needs Moms” showcases Milo’s quest to save his mom—a wild adventure in Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D that involves stowing away on a spaceship, navigating an elaborate, multi-level planet and taking on the alien nation and their leader (Mindy Sterling). With the help of a tech-savvy, underground earthman named Gribble (Dan Fogler) and a rebel Martian girl called Ki (Elisabeth Harnois), Milo just might find his way back to his mom—in more ways than one.

Did they choose the perfect actress to voice the mom in this film or what? There’s something about Joan Cusack that screams suburban housewife who drives a mini-fan. The rest of the cast is an interesting mix. We haven’t seen or heard Elisabeth Harnois in anything lately so it’s good to see her getting work.

Mars Needs Moms will open in theaters everywhere on March 11.

Star Wars To Become An Animated Comedy Series

Krystal Clark — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 23:35:10 +0000

How many reincarnations of Star Wars can we expect from George Lucas? Besides the six live action films he has under his belt, the director and his LucasFilms Animation will team up with the folks behind Cartoon Network’s “Robot Chicken” for a new TV series. We’re not talking about “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” this will be an animated comedy that will put a new twist on the intergalactic franchise.

According to THR, LucasFilms Animation made an official announcement earlier today regarding their latest Star Wars-based venture. The series will focus on the “comedic aspects of the galaxy far, far away,” with a creative team that will include Seth Green and Matthew Senreich from “Robot Chicken” and Brendan Hay from “The Daily Show.”

People already pick out flaws or funny inconsistencies in the Star Wars universe on their own accord, so can you imagine how hilarious it will be when it’s plastered across TV on a consistent basis?

“The Star Wars universe is so dense and rich; it’s crazy to think that there aren’t normal, mundane everyday problems in a world so well-defined,” said Green. “And it’s even crazier to think of what those problems might be, since it’s all set in a galaxy far, far away. What do these characters do when they’re not overthrowing Empires?”

Said Senreich, “We’re going to pull back the curtain of some of those behind-the-scenes shenanigans. It’s going to appeal to all ages, the way Star Wars should — but there’ll be plenty buried under the surface, as well. As Obi-Wan might say, ‘it all depends on your point of view’.”

Darn you Lucas! It looks like you’ve found another way to suck me into your Star Wars universe. The “Robot Chicken” connection is the only thing that has me slightly interested in this project. That show is hilarious and Green and Senreich really know how to handle campy, fanboy material.

Old Dogs Nut Job Clip

Krystal Clark — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:39:49 +0000

The upcoming Robin Williams, John Travolta comedy Old Dogs may not scream hilarity at first glance, but some of the clips that have been released from the film are somewhat entertaining. The latest scene that’s hit the fan is entitled “Nut Job,” which accurately describes the action in this clip. It features Williams, more old dudes, and a highly victimized Seth Green.

Take a look at the clip…

One of the oldest gags in comedy is the strategically placed hit to the groin. It always works no matter what the subject matter or the circumstance. People like seeing other people in unexpected pain, especially if its coming from a short, red-haired dude.

He’s a brief synopsis of Old Dogs:

Two best friends — one unlucky-in-love divorcee (Williams) and the other a fun-loving bachelor (Travolta) — have their lives turned upside down when they’re unexpectedly charged with the care of 7-year-old twins while on the verge of the biggest business deal of their lives. The not-so-kid-savvy bachelors stumble in their efforts to take care of the twins (newcomers Ella Bleu Travolta and Conner Rayburn), leading to one debacle after another, and perhaps to a new-found understanding of what’s really important in life.

Typically this type of mid-life crisis fare isn’t that funny, but look at what happened with Travolta’s last film that centered on this subject. Do you remember a little surprise hit called Wild Hogs? That movie debuted at number one multiple weeks in a row, which no one expected to happen. Could Old Dogs do the same?

Old Dogs opens in theaters everywhere this Thanksgiving on November 25th.

VOTD: Seth Green’s Freak Out

Krystal Clark — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 01:29:21 +0000

Are celebrity tirades becoming a trend in Hollywood? These days you have to be caught on tape with a rant or a sexual act to be considered the real deal. At the moment, footage of Family Guy, and Robot Chicken star Seth Green is making its way across the net, and it features the actor throwing a bratty tantrum. While viewers are still debating whether or not it’s a fake (like Matt Damon‘s) or real (like Christian Bale‘s), I’ve already come to my conclusion.

Take a look at the following video, and tell me what you think…

In my opinion, it looks staged. Seth Green is an actor and he has been doing this for a very long time. I’m sure he knows how to play it up for the cameras. My favorite part is towards the end when he tosses the table over with all of his might. He’s a little man, so that took a lot for him to do.

Do you think Seth Green’s freak out is legit or fake?

Review: SexDrive

Matt Hansen — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 16:00:05 +0000

For all you teenagers who were worried that you wouldn’t get your virgin sex comedy this year, relax. Complete with a badass muscle car, raunchy humor, blatant boob shots, and relevant Internet references, SexDrive has arrived just in time.

The plot of this (slightly stylized) homage to 80′s teen films is at the same time, both unimportant and equally summed up in the title. After a tempting offer from a cyberspace hottie, our young virgin hero Ian, (Josh Zuckerman) decides to drive halfway across the country to get his cherry popped. Accompanied by best friend and secret crush Felicia (Amanda Crew), and an eccentrically cool wisdom spouting buddy Lance ( Clark Duke), the trio set off on a road trip that is chocked full and pranks, pitfalls, and life lessons.Even with material aimed at a 17 to 21 year old demographic audience, SexDrive is hard not to enjoy. Mainly because unlike some recent releases, this film actually accomplishes what it sets out to do.

The movie has likable characters, sticks to its story, and doesn’t go to far with the gross out humor. Some notable mention are as follows. First off to Seth Green, for if such a thing as a sarcastically intelligent Amish farmer exists, he plays it to a T. Also, Clark Duke who is mostly known for his role on TV’s Greek, pulls a complete 180 and is soon to have a lot more scripts headed his way. While I’m not sure what James Marsden is doing in this film, because I happen to know he’s 35, he convincingly chews through the scenery as Ian’s annoying and way to macho older brother. The inspiration clearly coming from Bill Paxton’s (Chet) from Weird Science.

While there’s nothing new to learn from viewing this teenage sex quest comedy, you won’t be disappointed. The gags work, the friendships seem honest, and for all you car fanatics out there, any scene that features a 1969 Pontiac GTO (The Judge) burning rubber is worth the price of admission. The film cant claim to be this generations American Pie, but there’s something relevant about a comedy that simply works; even if you have to pull it off with a guy who saves the day dressed up in a donut costume.
