Casa de Mi Padre (review)
A little bit Mel Brooks, a little bit Airplane!: subtle humor that slips under your radar instead of bashing you over the head is what makes Casa one of the more adventurous comedies in recent years…
Will Ferrell
question of the day: Imagine the last film you watched is going to happen to you in real life: how screwed are you?
Here’s a meme that’s apparently been circling the Web for a while now that I only just came across the other day…
question of the day: The anti-Muslim movie trailer that supposedly prompted the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya: seriously, WTF?
This is a joke, right? No one could possibly take this seriously, could they? I kept expecting Will Ferrell to pop up.

question of the day: Which movie stars are actually overpaid?
Forbes considers Will Ferrell the No. 1 most overpaid star because his movies bring in, on average, “only” more than three times his salary. By the time we get down to No. 10, Jim Carrey, he’s bringing in $8.60 for every dollar he’s paid. How can that be considered overpaid?
