Do, Dump or Marry?

If you're a fan of Friends, this post is for you! David Schwimmer's Run, Fat Boy, Run hit theaters on Friday and I have to say it's nice to see Ross in the press again! Sure, he's a little goofy and I'll probably never be able to separate him from his old character, but if you ask me, that's part of his charm. I know he's not the hunkiest man in Hollywood, but he does have the personality that Read more

Weekend Box Office Results 2008-03-31 08:15:05

Well, it looks like 21, the film about MIT students who take Vegas by storm, was a safe bet as it easily won the top spot at the box office. However, the overall weekend box office total was down 17 percent compared to last year, Variety reports. 21 earned an estimated $23 million, beating Horton Hears a Who and firmly establishing Jim Sturgess as a viable leading man. Compare these results to Read more

Run, Fat Boy, Run: A Sadly Ordinary Underdog Story


Updated 03/29/08 1:09 PM · Posted by BuzzSugar · 13 comments

Run, Fat Boy, Run comes from a background of comedy gold, three times over: the off-kilter quirkiness of writer Michael Ian Black, the sweet goofiness of director David Schwimmer, and the British everyman humor of cowriter and star Simon Pegg. Ideally, the film would have joined the three comedy styles seamlessly, creating a lovable, hysterical movie that could do no wrong. Unfortunately, Run, Read more

Thandie Newton brightened up the Run, Fat Boy, Run LA premiere last night in her pink dress and springtime beauty look — love it or hate it? — while Amanda Bynes joined in the fun in her standard LBD. David Schwimmer has been giving lots of interviews about sitting in the director's chair, but don't expect his name plastered all over the movie. He said, "I’m really proud of it — it’s Read more

New York Premiere of Run, Fat Boy, Run

Thandie Newton was looking fabulous and super smiley at the premiere of Run Fat Boy Run in NYC last night. Unfortunately we can't say the same about director David Schwimmer, whose outfit left us wondering what happened to cute Ross Gellar? Seeing one of our old Friends always makes us nostalgic, but apparently David had a blast testing the waters as a director for his first film. As for the Read more

This time the premise and location are both distinctly American. Pegg wouldn't reveal too much to MTV Movies Blog, but he did say this: "It's called Paul Read more

First Look: Simon Pegg and Hank Azaria in Run, Fat Boy, Run

I love me some Simon Pegg, as I think pretty much everything he does is hilarious. And I know many of you — like me — adore Hank Azaria. So the U.K. preview for this fall's comedy Run, Fat Boy, Run should please a good number of Pegg and Azaria fans. Curiously, the movie was written by Michael Ian Black and directed by David Schwimmer. Pegg plays Dennis, an out-of-shape dude who leaves his Read more
