Trailer Park Overload

So many trailers to post! Prepare for trailer overload. I might have to break this up into a couple posts.

First up, Who Do You Love (April 9)

Seem familiar? Maybe because it's the same story as Cadillac Records, with lesser known actors. I still haven't watched Cadillac Records straight through and I don't particularly plan on going out to watch this, but it should be interesting to see which version of the Leonard Chess story does better.

The Joneses (April 16)

I wasn't a fan of David Duchovny a la the X-files days, but ever since Hank Moody, a la Californication, came along I can't get enough of the man. His new movie, co-starring Demi Moore, takes "keeping up with the Joneses" to a whole new level. The Joneses are, literally, a live-action marketing and advertising scheme family created to drive up the sales of any and everything. I'm guessing things change for the perfect family when it gets a little too real and close for their unit leader mother, Moore. Of course, there's the blatant theme of marketing, capitalism, materialism, envy, and greed, but they had to fit a little love and romance in there.

The Switch (Aug. 20)

Jennifer Aniston hasn't really been catching me with her latest movies. The Bounty Hunter? I mean really, come on. I think the key to this one is Sebastian, her son. He's too cute! As a self-proclaimed, slight hypochondriac i find humor in his neurosis. Horrible? maybe, but entertaining nonetheless. (and frankly, what it was written for) Point being, he had me at "I think I have psychosiams disorder." The child is 7; I can't even spell that!

Eat, Pray, Love (Aug. 13)

Didn't read the book, but who doesn't need/love all of the things in the title? The message alone is enough to make me give it a second thought. It's true that a lot of people get so caught in being in a relationship their whole life that they've never been alone, don't know how to be, and don't even really know themselves. It is important to know what you want in life, love, etc. before you can really get it. It should be interesting to see the journey. Don't we all wish we could just quit our jobs and take at least a year to travel!

Get Him To The Greek (June 4)

The spin-off to Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get Him To The Greek, centers around Jonah Hill, who played the obsessed waiter in Marshall, trying to get Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) to his anniversary concert. What ensues on the trek from England to theatre is a chaotic adventure full of sex, drugs, and (of course) rock & roll. Aldous seems to have fallen off the wagon and out of the studio, a former addict both in character and in real life, which is probably why the concert is such a big deal. Hill plays the awkward and slightly inappropriate character well and Brand always makes me laugh with his witty dialogue. Diddy, Aziz Ansari, and man-child from children's hospital also make an appearance. Not going to lie, i'm pretty excited to see Infant Sorrow and Snow perform "Inside of You" again. It even made my top tv/film songs here.

Is it bad that I, secretly (not so secret anymore), want to see Repo Men and The Back-up Plan? Don't judge me. Although, I won't blame you if you do. Well, that wraps up Trailer Park overload part 1. More coming soon.
