Spring Movie "preview" Part 2 (Posted-3/8/10)

The Runaways

This movie stars Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. I bet this film is going to do great in Utah and Thailand. It's a biopic about singer Joan Jett. It's really only on this list so I could make that delightful little quip.

The Hot Tub Time Machine

I have to give Hollywood credit for actually being original. Sure, time travel has been done before, but not in a hot tub.

Hollywood has made every book, TV show and video game into a movie. I wouldn't be surprised if they started making film adaptations out of bus station surveillance footage. So to see an original idea is always nice.
These guys go back to the 1980s and I really have a problem with that.



That decade is the holy land for hacks. It seems like every shithead “class clown” in high school thought they were so funny because they made jokes referencing the 80s. We get it. Micheal Jackson was black and . The only 80s reference that’s still funny is any joke made about Ryan White. But stuff about people in their 80s is always funny. Like when they back their car into a dumpster or they shatter a hip on a wet McDonald’s floor.

MacGruber
This is a film based on an SNL skit. What, they couldn't get the “nod” for dick in a box?
I actually like this MacGyver spoof, but on the show they're about 1 to 2 minutes long. Nothing that makes sense for 120 seconds should ever be stretched out to 90 minutes. That includes SNL skits and prostate exams.

Wall street 2
I’ll let the shithead who made “jokes” from 12th grade history class go at this one. Oh, no I can’t. They don’t let convicted pedophiles use computers in prison.(Callback. Guffaw!)
