'Anchorman 2' is dead as a doornail, Smalls

Dear Paramount: Congratulations on making the worst studio decision ever. According to the Twitter account of Adam McKay (Will Ferrell’s production partner and the co-writer/director of the original Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy) – Paramount Studios has passed on the project. Supposedly, McKay and Ferrell couldn’t get the sequel greenlit because Paramount was unable…

She haunts my entire existence! Her…

Obsession of the Week

I totally should've seen Pineapple Express instead

So we wanted to check out a movie and amongst the following options, Pineapple, Tropical Thunder, and Mirrors…we went with Stiller’s war movie spoof. Great cast, trailer looked fantastic…awesome right? Wrong. Ok, so remember the Family Guy episode when Stewie watches “Bewitched” with Will Ferrell. Upon finishing the movie he goes to the computer, books…
