10 Best Cop Buddy Duos in Movies, in Honor of Kevin Smith's Cop Out

Seems that whenever Hollywood has a crime to solve, it calls on a pair of mismatched officers for its hijinks. Take for instance Lethal Weapon, Starsky and Hutch, Rush Hour — and joining their ranks this Friday, director Kevin Smith's Cop Out, which features Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan as partners. It's an unlikely pairing, but they're obviously not the first to try this formula. Can they Read more

Superbad Sequel or a Superbad/Pineapple Express Hybrid?

It looks like Michael Cera (or maybe someone pretending to be Michael Cera) has been thinking "aloud" (or via Twitter) about future Superbad projects. He first twittered that he wants to do a movie with Jonah Hill and Jason Bateman (ending with the words: "Good idea?!"), and then he followed up with this one: Decided I'm gonna contact Jonah and Jason tomorrow. See what they think about doing a Read more

Superbad as an Action Movie

You know it as yet another Judd Apatow-esque bros-before-ho's comedy, but with the right music and editing, Superbad is a really good action film, albeit with the dorkiest-looking protagonists ever to star in that genre. (I'd love to see it branch out into horror, chick-flick, and sci-fi genres. Maybe even a ninja flick. When there's a will, there's a way!) Read more

A Trip Through Judd Apatow's Big 2007

I said it back in May, and it's still true as the year winds down: Judd Apatow is everywhere. The man whom the Los Angeles Times named "the mayor of comedy" had two of the Summer movie season's biggest hits, signed on for several more highly anticipated projects, had a New York Times Magazine cover story all about him, and generally became a household name — not bad for a self-described schlub Read more

Box Office: It Takes a Brave One to Be No. 1

The Jodie Foster/Terrence Howard thriller The Brave One reached the No. 1 spot at the box office over a relatively slow weekend, bringing in approximately $14 million. Variety reports that the main audience for the film was older women, and that its continued success will depend on whether men will be drawn to see it as well. 3:10 to Yuma just barely beat out Mr. Woodcock for the No. 2 spot, Read more

3:10 to Box Office Gold

I wasn't the only moviegoer wowed by the remake of the Western 3:10 to Yuma this weekend as the movie took the No. 1 spot at the box office. According to Variety, the film "appealed primarily to men over 25" but, um, I'm pretty sure there was plenty there for the ladies to enjoy as well. Halloween continued its killing spree at No. 2 while the ever-entertaining Superbad followed up in third Read more
