Musicals with animated animals have always been absolutely adorable. So when the original Happy Feet opened, there was something even more adorable when we had an unlikely animal such as the penguin singing beats ranging from the 70s to now. Throw in a likable penguin who can’t sing like the rest of the community but would rather dance and you don’t even stand a chance. Maybe this is why it beat out Pixar’s Cars. So how does the sequel stand up?
Mumble (Elijah Wood) is back with some kids of his own with his loved one Gloria (now played by P!nk due to the late Brittany Snow). This time the community has embraced dancing and tries to teach it to its younger generation. Throw in some elephant seals, some semi-likable Krill, a Puffin, a toned down Robin Williams, and another global issue and you get a seemingly rushed and scrapped together film they call Happy Feet 2. Despite all these issues, it still inspires some of the magic it once had through its spine tingling musical numbers and fantastic visuals.

Can this adorable, beautiful, hipster pull off comedy? Sure she’s got the indie-weirdo down, but what about sketch comedy. I personally don’t think so. She should stick to what her typecast scripted shtick, but the SNL writers are gonna go in one of 2 directions. Make the entire show fit her personality [which they should do every show, but not ever host is able to keep up with that], or stick her in copy and paste characters that make the actual castmates do their redundant and tired out sketches [black musicians by Kenan Thompson get very old, very fast]. I don’t think Deschanel’s ballsy enough to carry the weight. But like with last week, I was fairly surprised at Channing Tatum’s effort, which makes me actually reconsider him as a meat head. Too early to call, but based on the promo….well. Gyah…
Maya Rudolph is hosting February 18th

With numerous people constantly smacking me on the hands for not watching one of the greatest TV shows ever, I finally got into watching F/X’s Archer. Once again, I’m kicking myself in the ass for not finding this comedic gem sooner. I have said this about many shows, but I’ll gladly stand behind saying Archer is one of the best things on television. The quick witted, often self-referring jokes, the stellar cast, and one of the most lovable douche bags on TV, Archer has every element to be a casual comedy to keep up with. It doesn’t matter if you’re alone in a room or in circled by friends, Archer will surely bring you the laughs every Thursday night.
Sterling Archer (brilliantly voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) is feared by all governments for being the most dangerous field agent out there. He’s got all the best qualities of James Bond: deadly with a pistol, a taste for fancy drinks, and a tendency to flirt with all sorts of women. The difference? He’s completely aware of how awesome he is and selfishly rubs it in everyone’s face. Working for the government agency ISIS, with his alcoholic mother (Jessica Walter) at the helm, Archer engages in different missions each episode. With the help (or without in most cases) of his co-workers, he always manages to finish the mission. Or at least, comes out of it alive.

Not completely entertainment, tv, or movie related. That’s okay, this is still a very interesting video. I’d imagine 50 more viral videos just sprang up in the nine minutes it takes to finish that video, but regardless, this is still an excellent way to waste 10 minutes of your life.

The opening sequences to television shows provide the thematic sequences that set the underlying tone to the rest of the show. The strength of these sequences often creates the memorable calling card of the show. Here I’ve got compiled 5 of my favorite openings to television shows.

The films listed here weren’t received well at the domestic box office. They also weren’t rated very well by critics. Both of these aspects usually make movies flops. But with a low production budget and large world box office, these movies actually aren’t considered flops.

Sure there were quite a few movie spots in the Superbowl, but none as awesome as the Avengers. And by awesome, I meant explodey. My gosh they’re really selling the whole action movie. I sure hope this thing isn’t a loud bust, or else I and tons of others will be really upset. Regardless, the classic Tony Stark humor is always appreciated and once again we ended on the Hulk screaming. Literally, almost every Avengers teaser ends with the Hulk screaming.

Cracked took some of the most bad-ass moments that movie heroes have accomplished and pinned them on pure luck. This actually makes a lot of sense and is hilarious. As ever, I love Cracked for finding the finest moments in movies.

The superbowl was last weekend, and I know I didn’t do much to hype it up. By hyping it up, I meant talking about commercials and the sneak previews for movies coming down the tube. Here we have the gracious network host of the Superbowl, NBC, promoting themselves during this time of absurd viewership.
I wrote the following message on the facebook wall of a friend who promoted this clip for Community’s likely return:
NBC is quite the disaster. They put all their eggs in that commercial. And it’s still an ugly looking basket. The last place major network uses its lucky break aka the Superbowl to promote everything it had to offer. Which probably only includes NBC Comedy Thursday and maybe SNL in my opinion. Whitney and Chelsea Handler be damned and all the other TV shows that I and America didn’t recognize. #Sixseasonsandamovie
I’m mainly upset for the whole ‘let’s put Community on hiatus’ deal, but let’s honest. Besides NBC Thursday night comedy and possibly SNL, I, as a decent representation of what the 18-25 demographic of an average American, do not recognize nor do I care about any of those shows. Their dramas easily lose out to other big networks like Fox and ABC, and even a smaller network like F/X has some seriously formidable programs. Soak up your fame as you had it NBC, as the boycott on your network continues as long as Whitney and that Chelsea Handler show lives and Community remains on hiatus.

As I finish up the Great Gatsby in preparations for Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation starring the awesome Leonardo DeCaprio, there are a couple of other books I want to start and finish for potential movies or general interest. I’m not a humungous reader because I honestly don’t have the time, but if the story is good enough, I’ll easily forsake school work to finish it up, like for what I did for the Millennium Trilogy. Anyways, here’s the 5 books I have so far queued for 2012.

Writer Cody Johnston from Cracked.com has written this impressive essay about why Christopher Nolan will kill Bruce Wayne. Utilizing examples from the two previous films as well as even films from Nolan’s other works, this article completely bursts open what The Dark Knight Rises could potentially be. Check this article out and get a leg up on on how amazing one of the most anticipated films of the year can turn out. yes, I know this is a little outdated being written in November, but I’ve been saving this one for a while.

I don’t know what to make of this. I’ve personally seen probably none of his movies. If I did, he was probably a supporting character or an extra. The most I know about him was that he starred in some eagle movie that looked like Centurion and that he’s playing a male stripper. I wouldn’t call him a household name, so his hosting SNL can bring one of two things: 1) he actually has comedic chops and took his job as host seriously enough to actually put an effort. 2) Be a January Jones and deliver one of the worst episodes ever. And judging by his promo with the loathesome Fred Armisen…well shit man, good luck to ya.
Next week, Zooey Deschanel hosts. Another pro/con sceneario next week..
[Update] If you didn’t get the January Jones joke, it’s because she once hosted SNL, and it was a complete disaster. Completely void of any laughs.

American Horror Story premiered last year on FX and told the tale of family moving into a haunted house. This haunted house has the ghosts of the people killed within its walls for the past 80+ years. Throughout the times, there are ghosts from all time periods each with their reasons to hang around. I’ve compiled below a list of my favorites in no particular order. Potential spoilers below.

I’ve only seen half of these movies, which I’m fairly ashamed for. Regardless, they’ve compiled a decent list, but I honestly can’t say I completely agree with them. First Class, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Moneyball, a lot of those that are nominated for best picture should be included in here. Regardless, everyone is entitled to their opinions.

A couple of months ago, I posted an article containing a couple of awesome monologue scenes. I used the term monologue to describe a part when an actor usually has a lot of lines to say without anyone interrupting or stealing his thunder. While the list I created was good, I picked up a couple more from my readers as well as a couple of other sources. Here, I’ve compiled their respective Youtube videos that can be seen below.
