The Entertainment of Life

This movie is freaking hilarious!

Sex Tape follows Annie and Jay a married couple who have gotten bored with their sex life. So to spice things up and put the spark back in their marriage they make a sex tape. The sex tape works and they become sexually attracted to each other again but at Annie's (Cameron Diaz) request it was supposed to be a one time thing and the video should be erased. Well unfortunately the video synced to the cloud on Jay's iPad and ended up being sent to every person that they gave iPad's to for Christmas. So now they go on a mission to retrieve every iPad before their sexual exploits are seen! This trailer for this movie freaking hilarious! I have to go see it! I love Jason Segel he's a hilarious dude and Cameron Diaz is one of my favorite actresses she can do it all comedy, romance, drama, suspense, action. Together they create comedy gold, they play off of each other very well and I love their chemistry!



Here's the official plot:

When Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) first got together, their romantic connection was intense - but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark. To kick things up a notch, they decide - why not? - to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea - until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they're just one click away from being laid bare to the world... but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they'll never forget, they'll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.

Rob Lowe, Jason Segel, Cameron Diaz, Rob Corddry, and Ellie Kemper star in Sex Tape. Sex Tape is directed by the same director that brought us the hilarious Bad Teacher which both Cameron and Jason also starred in. They had great chemistry in Bad Teacher and it carried over in Sex Tape. Most people are thinking of Sex Tape as a "sequel" to Bad Teacher. But it is in fact its own movie.

Sex Tape hits theaters July 25, 2014!!!!

Now that Psych is on its last season, James Roday has picked up a new gig on CBS. He will be starring in a new CBS comedy called Good Session. The show is being written by John Hamburg and Matt Miller.

Here's the Plot via Deadline:
A seemingly happy couple, Joel (Roday) and Lindsay, go to a therapist to help them decide if they should have a baby but quickly discover they have more to discuss. Joel is a dedicated middle-school guidance counselor who thinks his marriage to Lindsay, a jet-setting executive, is a happy one — but when they disagree about whether the time is right to start a family, they begin the painful, funny, embarrassing and, ultimately, rewarding, road of couples counseling.

Harold Ramis name probably isn't something you would associate with comedic gold. But if your a child of the late 70s, 80s and early 90s then you would know some of the most classic comedy films of those decades. Harold Ramis got his biggest peace of fame when he penned National Lampoon's Animal House. He then went on to co-write some of the biggest comedic and classic films in Hollywood. Films like National Lampoon's Vacation, Meatballs, Stripes, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, and Groundhog.



Harold Ramis died from complications of autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis, which is a rare disease that involves swelling of the blood vessels at the age of 65. He is survived by his wife Erica Mann, his daughter, Violet, his sons Julian and Daniel, and two grandchildren.

Rest in Peace Mr. Ramis. You were the pioneer of the comedy genre. And you put some many careers in motion Jim Belushi, Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Billy Crystal, and inspired so many others. Others like Adam Sandler, Judd Apatow, Jay Roach, Peter and Bobby Farrelly. Many people were touched by your genius and in your films you will live on.

Melissa McCarthy is starring in a new comedy! Melissa McCarthy is the leading lady these days in comedy. She's got a new movie due out in July called Tammy. Here's the synopsis via TammyMovie.com

Melissa McCarthy and Susan Sarandon star in New Line Cinema’s comedy “Tammy,” marking Ben Falcone’s directorial debut.
Tammy (McCarthy) is having a bad day. She’s totaled her clunker car, gotten fired from her thankless job at a greasy burger joint, and instead of finding comfort at home, finds her husband getting comfortable with the neighbor in her own house.
It’s time to take her boom box and book it. The bad news is she’s broke and without wheels. The worse news is her grandma, Pearl (Sarandon), is her only option—with a car, cash, and an itch to see Niagara Falls. Not exactly the escape Tammy had in mind. But on the road, with grandma riding shotgun, it may be just what Tammy needs.

Melissa McCarthy is one of my favorite actresses. From her hilarious part in Bridesmaids to Identity Thief to her show on CBS Mike and Molly she's comedic gold right now. Melissa is great and I will her career until she calls it quits!

Kevin Hart is a filmmaker's dream! Starring in his first film of the year (alongside Tika Sumpter and Ice Cube) Kevin Hart is raking in the moolah for the movie Ride Along. Ride Along decimated the box office this weekend over its rivals Lone Survivor and Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, by bringing in a whopping $47 Million! Lone Survivor brought in $23.2 Million and Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit brought in a measly $17 Million (it cost $60 Million to make).

If you're unsure what Ride Along is about well here's a little break down:

For the past two years, high-school security guard Ben has been trying to show decorated APD detective James that he's more than just a video-game junkie who's unworthy of James' sister, Angela. When Ben finally gets accepted into the academy, he thinks he's earned the seasoned policeman's respect and asks for his blessing to marry Angela. Knowing that a ride along will demonstrate if Ben has what it takes to take care of his sister, James invites him on a shift designed to scare the hell out of the trainee. But when the wild night leads them to the most notorious criminal in the city, James will find that his new partner's rapid-fire mouth is just as dangerous as the bullets speeding at it.

Kevin Hart and Ice Cube have been doing the press tour for this movie for at least a month now and it seems as though their strong efforts have paid off! Kevin Hart is no stranger to the box office: Let Me Explain, grossed a little over $10 Million in its opening weekend. Overall its domestic gross (USA) was over $32 Million, while its foreign gross was over $73 Million. He's co-starred in other films that were hits as well: Think Like a Man grossed over $32 Million in its opening weekend. Even with all his success Kevin Hart is still humble and down to earth, a trait that is usually lost in most people who achieve his success. In an interview with Vibe Kevin Hart said,

"I laugh all the time because I can't believe where I am in my career. The fact that I have yet to really acknowledge and embrace it is what keeps me motivated to do so much more."

Gotta love Kevin Hart. Congrats and much love on all your success!



Ride Along is in Theaters NOW! Go SEE IT!

There was a big rumor going around about LeBron James being the lead in Space Jam 2. Which I thought was a big big mistake by the way. The first Space Jam was cute and a little funny (actually it was hella funny with Bill Murray in it), but I just don't see the point of a sequel. Nothing against Lebron there was just no need for the second movie in my book.

However, this movie new movie that LeBron's name is being attached too doesn't sound all that promising either. Here's the plot of the movie: Kevin's character is tired of living in the shadow of his basketball icon brother (i.e. LeBron James) and decides to make a few changes in his life. Kevin and a few of his friends head to Miami to attend a fantasy basketball camp and he decides right then and there that this is his chance to prove himself. Sounds simply enough right? Despite the simplistic and somewhat vague plot I'm willing to give it a chance for one reason...Kevin Hart. I absolutely adore Kevin Hart. He's really funny, he's very easy on the eyes, and he's very honest about his life and I can appreciate that. I think he would be my main reason for watching the movie.

It sounds simple enough and similar to another movie that we've seen before e.g. the Sixth Man. Do you remember that movie? Kadeem Hardison and Marlon Wayans were brothers in the movie. Marlon's character was also living in his brothers shadow (which he had no problem doing) and Kadeem Hardison was the college basketball, NBA bound star. One night he had a game went for the dunk and had a heart attack on the court. He died shortly afterwards but came back in ghost form to help his team win the championship. Long story short Marlon's character finally came into his own and was able to get past his brother's death and live his life for himself. It was a good movie and it was very funny. I just hope that Ballers doesn't mimic the movie TOO much. Its already off to a good start nobody dies and comes back as a ghost so that is a good sign lol.

No word on when this will hit the big screen. Currently Kevin Hart is working on the script with hopes of filming after the NBA season next spring! This will be LeBron's first feature film but it doesn't really require much acting because he's already the character he's playing he just doesn't have any brothers or sisters to worry about (that he knows of).

Kevin Hart has two other movies coming out within the next couple of months Grudge Match starring Slyvester Stallone and Robert DeNiro due out December 25th. And Ride Along starring Ice Cube, Tika Sumpter and John Leguizamo. If a trailer for Ballers is released sometime next year I will definitely update this blog.



























Trailer for Ride Along. Its like a really hilarious Training Day but without all the politics and killing. Kevin is a security guard who signs up for the police academy. In the midst of his new career he finds himself in love with his longtime girlfriend and plans to propose but there's only one problem, her over protective hard assed brother. Who happens to be a detective. When Kevin asks for his sisters hand in marriage, her brother decides to take him on a Ride Along. The Ride Along is to show him the ropes of the day to day life of a cop as well as scare him off his sister.



Trailer for Grudge Match. A movie about 2 washed up boxers who return to the ring for one final bout. Slyvester Stallone and Robert DeNiro had a bitter rivalry and each won 1 fight against the other. When Slyvester Stallone's character retires the two's final fight was cancelled and their rivalry was never settled. Years later their manager comes to them with a proposition to be apart of a game. Their intense rivalry heats up via a viral video of the two old fighters duking it out at a game studio. A $100,000 request for a final fight drops into their laps and the Grudge Match begins!

Ron Burgundy became a pop culture icon after Will Ferrell and several other funny men like Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, David Koechner, and Seth Rogen (and another pop culture icon Christina Applegate) starred in the movie Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. While its theatrical release was a flop, the DVD sales made it a household name and a staple in pop culture.

Now Ron Burgundy has a sequel to the original coming out called Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. Because of his huge popularity Will Ferrell aka Ron Burgundy is doing Dodge car commercials to promote his new movie as well as the major car company. He's everywhere and now hes even on the news! Really the REAL NEWS! Bismarck, N.D. had Ron Burgundy Anchor the News for 30 minutes! I have a snippet of the video below. It was like a normal broadcast but it was just too surreal to see Ron Burgundy in that same suit, in the same tone of voice anchoring the real news. Ron was his usual self; silly, funny, and downright outrageous. I couldn't help but laugh when he started talking and he female anchor next him..oh goodness you just gotta see it for yourself!

USAs Necessary Roughness has been cancelled. Unfortunately the network has opted of a 4th Season. Necessary Roughness was not a breakout hit. It kept a steady stream of loyal followers and last season it had $4 Million viewers which isn't bad but it wasn't mind blowing ratings either.

In case you didn't know Necessary Roughness started out about a therapist named Dani Santino. Dani was coping with marital troubles and a failing practice. She was offered a job by a football coach whose athlete was having trouble performing on the field. Necessary Roughness mirrored a lot of problems occurring in sports now. Performance enhancement drugs, infidelity, promiscuity, sexual preference, etc. Many of these same topics plague the NBA, NFL, MLB, Olympians, etc. There was a formal statement released by the network via Deadline and here's what it said:

“We are proud of this show and its writers, which had a unique ability to address topical subjects before they unfolded in real life on the sports pages,” the network said in a statement to Deadline. “We want to thank Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro, the incredible cast led by Golden Globe nominee Callie Thorne and our partners at Sony Television.”

It was a great show, but I think adding John Stamos to the cast was a big mistake. Not to say he wasn't great to look at but it just shook up the storyline of the show too much! Originally Dr. Dani dealt with specific athlete and I thought that she would continue to see him (which she did) and expand the storyline to other athletes problems. But it only went so far. I just felt like they could've taken necessary roughness to the top. Ripped from the headlines storylines. She could have been a freelance therapist working for athletes from all popular sports. Would've been awesome but they focused on this one team and made things consistently personal all the time. It was a good show but it could have been so much better.

Shane Dawson is arguably one of (if not) the most famous YouTube celebrity in the world. Currently he's running 3 channels with over 9 million subscribers. Shane definitely has a gift that people flock to see.

NBC has green lit a single camera comedy series based on Shane Dawson's real life. Its called Losin' It. The comedy will be set in a weight loss center, centered around its most successful client. When the client decides to become a consultant at the clinic that helped him lose weight chaos ensues, he's promoted to manager by the end of his first day!

The story will be written by Darlene Hunt, Shane Dawson, and Shane's producing partner Lauren Schnipper. Dawson, Hunt, Richie Schwartz, and Gluck will executive produce, with Schnipper producing. The storyline is direct from Shane himself. He once worked at a weight loss company called Jenny Craig along with his mother and brother in 2008, around the time his very first YouTube Channel began. Shortly after Shane uploaded a video of pole-dancing in the office that starred his mother, brother, himself and several other employees. Once it was out for the world to see Shane and all his accomplices were fired. But it was obviously a blessing in disguise because Shane is getting his own show! As comedic as this show will be the topic is also very personal to Shane. Having a rough childhood suffered from domestic abuse and bullying. Shane worked hard and lost 150 lbs! His new found confidence and strength pushed him to make moves in the YouTube community and create one of the most successful YouTube channels EVER!

Great for Shane Dawson! I personally have never watched his channel but I know who he is. He's one of the most famous YouTubers of all time. Apparently talented, funny, and now about to be a TV star. So congrats on all your success. Enjoy!

Since I've never seen his channel I'm going to post a playlist of some of his videos below:



Update: I've watched some of them and their pretty funny! So can't wait to see your show Shane! Again Congrats!
