First trailer for THE SITTER

Aug 06 2011 Published by under Film

I’ve had the script for The Sitter sitting on my hard drive since April 2010 and although I’ve wanted to read it for a while now, I held off because the Apatow associated comedies are always better on the screen than on the page, and I simply didn’t want the movie ruined by reading it beforehand.

I know it’s a little mean, but Jonah Hill seems way less funny now that he’s lost so much weight.  I mean, it’s good for him, he’ll probably live longer and get laid more often, but I’m not convinced it’s a good career move.  I have to believe that audiences find a fat guy funnier than a skinny guy.  At least he’s still chubby in The Sitter.

Ari Graynor, Sam Rockwell and JB Smoove also star.  The film opens on December 9th 2011.

One creepy looking poster for CYRUS

Apr 15 2010 Published by under Film

I heard about Cyrus when it played at Sundance earlier in the year and it sounded pretty cool.  I still have no idea when/if it’ll make it over to me here in Oz but I figure I’ll get to see it at some point, either in the cinema or on DVD.

Anyway, here’s the new poster for the flick with a seriously creepy looking Jonah Hill.
