Hot Tub Time Machine [REVIEW]

Last night I attended a screening of one of the best films ever made...eat shit Casablanca! Alright, not quite but it was by far one of the most hilarious pieces of film I have ever had the joy of watching. Premise? John, Rob, Craig, and Clark are friends who travel back to the 80's via a hot tub time machine and hilarity ensues (i.e. brainstorming million dollar ideas that they steal from the future like combining viagra and twitter...aka twitagra). It is a twisted homage to 80's teen films, like those that made the John Cusask, and Chevy Chase legends, but combines the crude brand comedy Craig Robinson, and Rod Corddry are known for. Not sold? Take a look at the red band trailer here.

In theatres March 26th.

My Favourite New Comedy: "Community" [TELEVSION]

This new comedy series has provided me with a seemingly endless supply of comedic relief over the last few days. I have been been quoting, and drawing parallels in within my own life which only helps to sustain my fondness for the show. From the minds that brought us Arrested Development, come Community...try it, you'll love it...probably.

From Dan Harmon ("The Sarah Silverman Program") and Emmy Award-winning directors Joe and Anthony Russo ("Arrested Development") comes "Community," a smart comedy series about a band of misfits who attend Greendale Community College. At the center of the group is Jeff Winger (Joel McHale, "The Soup"), a fast-talkin' lawyer whose degree has been revoked. With some help from his fellow classmates, Winger forms a study group who eventually learn more about themselves than their course work.

Also among the series stars who comprise the group are comedy legend Chevy Chase ("Chuck") as Pierce, a man whose life experience has brought him infinite wisdom; Gillian Jacobs ("The Book of Daniel") as Britta, the 28-year old drop out with something to prove; Yvette Nicole Brown ("Rules of Engagement") as Shirley, a sassy middle-aged divorcée; Danny Pudi ("Greek") as Abed, a pop culture junkie; Alison Brie ("Mad Men") as Annie, a high-strung perfectionist; Donald Glover ("30 Rock") as Troy, a former high school football star trying to find his way and Ken Jeong ("The Hangover") as Spanish professor, Señor Chang.
