Posted on August 13, 2010 by | Leave a comment

How do you know it’s almost the end of the summer? Because the trailer for How Do You Know has arrived. The question mark-less James L. Brooks romantic comedy — featuring a murderer’s row cast of Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson and Jack Nicholson — doesn’t hit theaters until Christmas, but that doesn’t mean its too early to start the hype machine on the first film from the Oscar-winner in six years. Besides, it already looks better than Spanglish .

You Won’t Like Edward Norton When He’s Angry in the Trailer for Stone

Posted on July 21, 2010 by | Leave a comment

How about Sam Worthington, though?

And that the upcoming season of Weeds disposes of her crutch so violently, should tell you all you need to know about where this show is headed.
