The Boardwalk Empire season finale is this coming Sunday, here is the “To the Lost” promo, and it’s excellent. It’s been a very compelling season; a slow boil much like the first season with payoffs here and there. I’d like to think the season finale will be a stunner, you with me? Watch the promo:

The Sitter has a new red-band trailer for your viewing pleasure, see the first one here. Directed by David Gordon Green (Pineapple Express), The Sitter follows a college student on suspension who is coaxed into babysitting the kids next door, though he is fully unprepared for the wild night ahead of him. He’s on a mission to get laid and has to take these kids all around Manhattan, normal.
If all that wasn’t enough for you, Sam Rockwell and J.B. Smoove play drug dealers. Done deal right? Get in that ass Larry.
The Sitter pens on December 9th, check out the trailer below:

A red band trailer for the remake of the 1980s television series 21 Jump Street starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as young cops who go undercover at a high school. The trailer has some funny moments and it’s nice to see Ice Cube swearing in a movie again instead of falling down. This reminds me a lot of Superbad; the party scene for example is very similar in style. That’s not a knock at the movie, it works here obviously – I laughed.
In the action-comedy 21 Jump Street, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) are more than ready to leave their adolescent problems behind. Joining the police force and the secret Jump Street unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks, Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug ring. But they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few years earlier and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind.

The Simpsons 23rd season begins this Sunday, so what better time to share everything we know about the upcoming season. It is the longest-running American sitcom, the longest-running American animated program, and in 2009 it surpassed Gunsmoke as the longest-running American primetime, scripted television series; so they are doing something right it seems. Oh and they will celebrate 500 episodes in 2012.
As a fan (is mental fan a term?) I can honestly say it’s my favorite anything, and there are more than a few reason to get excited about this upcoming season, take a look:

The trailer for The Sitter features a very foul language filled introduction from Jonah Hill and some misbehaved children, enjoy it below. The Sitter is a comedy about a college student (Hill) on suspension who is coaxed into babysitting the kids next door, but is fully unprepared for the crazy night ahead of him and ends up on a wild chase through New York including a battle against some unruly and vicious drug dealers played by Method Man and Sam Rockwell.
I laughed a few times here and find it to be the grown up remake of Adventures in Babysitting I’ve been waiting for. Watch it now:

A second trailer [see the first] for the Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill sports film Moneyball is here, much like the first one it does a nice job of blending drama with comedy. That could be attributed to the writers, Steven Zaillian (Gangs of New York, Schindler’s List) and Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network).
The film is based on a true story that focuses on Billy Beane (Pitt) and Paul De Podesta (Hill), the GM and assistant GM that made the 2002 Oakland A’s a highly competitive Major League Baseball team using a modern analytical sabermetrics system [wiki that], despite having a completely budgeted, low-rent team that were initially the laughing stock of baseball early on in the season.
The rest of the film’s cast includes Kathryn Morris, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Wright. Watch the new trailer for the film below:

20th Century Fox is in the middle of adapting the classic TV series 21 Jump Street, starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as two cops who go undercover in a high school. The cast for the film also includes Ice Cube, Dave Franco, Brie Larsen, and Rob Riggle. I would love the movie to be rated R for language, but I imagine they will save that for the “Jumpier Street Edition” DVD and make the theatrical film PG-13. The current release date for the film is March 16, 2012
New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. have released a new image from Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. This image gives us our first look at the dwarves Nori, Ori and Dori, played by Jed Brophy, Adam Brown and Mark Hadlow. See it below:

The first trailer for Moneyball starring Brad Pitt is here and makes Baseball look very interesting, not an easy feat. Based on a true story from the Michael Lewis book, Brad Pitt is Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland Athletics baseball team. In an attempt to put his baseball club on the map but on a budget, the manager hires a college grad, played by Jonah Hill, who uses statistics to pick players who will win games.
Bennett Miller (Capote) directed the adaptation by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network) and Steven Zaillian (Schindler’s List). Originally Steven Soderbergh (Ocean’s Eleven) was set to direct but creative differences led the studio to drop the film until Brad Pitt resurrected the project.
The film also stars Kathryn Morris, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Wright. The film is set to open up on September 23rd 2011. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think. Continue Reading…

Universal sent us the trailer for GET HIM TO THE GREEK, see it after the jump. Greek, opening June 4th, reunites Jonah Hill and Russell Brand with Forgetting Sarah Marshall director Nicholas Stoller in the story of a record company intern with two days to drag an uncooperative rock legend to Hollywood for a comeback concert. It’s being called a spin-off of Sarah Marshall, as Brand does indeed reprise his fantastic role as Aldous Snow. The trailer is pretty sweet, I am not sure if it will live up to the greatness that was Forgetting Sarah Marshall; but I have heard many good things about Brand’s roll and the script. Check it out June 4th.
Favorite FSM quote: Matthew: I have a question for you real quick. What did you think of my demo? Did you get it? Aldous Snow: I was gonna listen to that, but then, um, I just carried on living my life.
