2007: Year of Apatow

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

Walk Hard: Better as a Sketch Than a Movie

Walk Hard: Better as a Sketch Than a Movie

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, the final 2007 notch on Judd Apatow's ever-growing comedy belt, isn't a great movie — but it would have been a fantastic Saturday Night Live sketch. The movie, which Apatow produced and co-wrote with Jake Kasdan, can be hilarious, but it's just as often tiresome, dipping into the same well of jokes over and over again. Even so, there are enough hilarious Read more

It Takes Two to "Duet"

"Let's Duet" from Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story

There's no doubt that Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story is gonna be chock full of double entendres. The name of the protagonist is the first clue. The film's tag line is another: "Life made him tough. Love made him strong. Music made him hard." And the song "Let's Duet" ("do it"), couldn't be filthier. Listen with a dirty mind. Read more

John C. Reilly and 2007 Comic Heavy Hitters Walk Hard

John C. Reilly and 2007 Comic Heavy Hitters Walk Hard

John C. Reilly was most certainly remaining in character at last night's LA premiere of Walk Hard, even serenading the crowd with his vocal stylings at one point. Also out for the big premiere was his co-star Jenna Fischer in a hot and decidedly non-Pam Beesley dress with some sky-high heels, guess her back is all better. Justin Long managed to stop making out with Drew long enough to make it out Read more

Music Video: "Walk Hard" with John C. Reilly

I wasn't terribly impressed with our first look at Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, the biopic spoof co-written by Judd Apatow that opens Dec. 21. But the full music video for "Walk Hard," the song performed by John C. Reilly as the title character, has me feeling a little better about things. It's not the best country music spoof I've ever heard — it's a shame they couldn't have borrowed the A Read more

First Look: Judd Apatow's Walk Hard, Starring Jenna Fisher

Ever since Judd Apatow had a fame explosion this summer with the release of Knocked Up (and the soon-to-be hit summer comedy Superbad), every project he has even remotely touched is splashed with his name. I predict Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, which Apatow co-wrote with Jake Kasdan, will be no different. The comedy starring John C. Reilly and Jenna Fisher (with supporting characters played Read more

Mad Men Recap "Christmas Waltz"

This week's Mad Men brings back a character we haven't seen in a while, Paul Kinsey, and gives us a look at a relationship between two characters — Joan and Don — who we don't often see interact (but wow, when they do, is it entertaining). Financial problems also start to make Lane Pryce sweat in a subplot that's obviously leading to something far more serious. The Paul story line kind of Read more
