five-year

The Five Year Engagement stars Jason Segel and Emily Blunt. It is directed by Nicholas Stoller (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) and opens April 27, 2012.  Stoller and Segel co-wrote the script and Judd Apatow and Rodney Rothman produced.

The film follows a young couple’s extended engagement and the ups and downs they experience along the way.  The trailer has laughs and there can never be anything wrong with Emily Blunt, she will win you over with her cirque du soleil impression.  Watch it below:

Pee Wee HermanPaul Reubens sat down with The Hollywood Reporter and revealed the status of his upcoming project with Judd Apatow, we talked about it before but this seems like a real update.

Paul Rust and I just turned in a draft to Judd last week. He’s bringing such an interesting side to it. He’s constantly having us talk about and address the emotional core of Pee-wee Herman. It’s adding a dimension I never had before. Judd, if you’re reading this, I think it’s ready to green light!

It’s good to see Reubens getting excited about returning to the big screen, his HBO special “Pee-Wee Herman Show on Broadway” is up for an Emmy which shows he’s still got something people want to see I think.  Thoughts?

Pee Wee HermanPee-wee has been making a comeback for the past little while (video below), and Paul Reubens has been talking about making a few movies now for what seems like forever.  Now we are getting somewhere…There’s word that one of these two films is being developed for Universal by Judd Apatow, with Reubens writing.  Reubens said he wanted to do a more ‘adult’ oriented film and also a kid’s movie.  So with Apatow at the helm, I’m thinking this may be the adult version.

Variety says that Apatow is working with Universal and Reubens to create “a road pic built around a gigantic adventure.” Apatow is only producing at this point, not directing.  Here is some nice things they had to say about each other: (more…)

I believe in miracles, where you from?  You sexy thing.

I believe in miracles, where you from? You sexy thing.

Brought to you by: Hot Chocolate

It’s that time of year isn’t it?  Boil the milk Mum, I wants me some HC!  The best thing to come home to, after an empty house that is – Hot Chocolate is delicious, warming and very necessary.  Recent studies have suggested that hot chocolate possesses health benefits due to antioxidants that can be found in cocoa.  I’m one of those people who like to soak up the HC with about half a dozen full size marshmallows, still good for me then?  The first chocolate beverage is believed to have been created by the Mayan peoples around 2000 years ago.

The Mayans recently gave us the blockbuster film 2012, so…swings and roundabouts.  Watching Jimmy Stewart this holiday season?  HC it.  Coming home from a full contact hockey game?  HC it.  Bottom line, best hot drink ever.
