Movie Review: THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND Starring Pete Davidson, Marisa Tomei

Posted: June 14, 2020 at 11:43 am   /   Movie Reviews

Judd Apatow is a filmmaker who is not afraid to take chances. While he can bring the laughs with films like 40-Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up, he’s not afraid to get sentimental and tackle emotionally charged topics. Funny People was a prime example of that as Adam Sandler deals with learning he has cancer. […]

When Superbad became a huge success in 2007, we saw the birth of the new genre. Sure, they weren’t the first to put the struggles of teenager and twenty somethings on film. There was The Breakfast Club, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and several others. But it wasn’t until Judd Apatow took to writing like […]

Comedian Aziz Ansari Hosting 19th Annual MTV Movie Awards

Posted: April 19, 2010 at 11:24 am   /   Local, Movie News, Television

Every year the MTV Movie Awards tricks me. They announce a host that I like and I think, “Wow, that will be pretty cool.” Although, the show hasn’t been “pretty cool” for some time now. Last year we had Andy Samberg hosting it, and the sketches fell short, and the show was dominated by tween […]

A lot of websites and blogs are firing up today talking about the guest list for the return of Jay Leno. Saying the first two weeks proves that he wasn’t hurt by the debacle at all. It’d be naive to think that NBC wouldn’t be able to book top guests for the return of a […]

Posted: October 28, 2009 at 11:53 am   /   Local, Movie News

Ok, what Sandler really is doing is playing two roles in his next film, Jack and Jill. He will play both title characters. I can’t imagine Sandler being a good looking woman. Apparently $49 million dollars will be going into the budget to correct this problem. Just kidding of course, I’m sure it will be […]

Seth Rogen calls Katherine Heigl Crazy

Posted: August 3, 2009 at 9:04 am   /   Local, Off the Wall

Well, this story has really been going on now for a couple years now. Ever since Heigl’s original comments about the hit 2007 comedy that propelled her career to new heights, Knocked Up. Heigl called the Judd Apatow film “sexist” and “paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men […]
