Synopsis: ‘Ex-maid of honor Eloise (Anna Kendrick) – having been relieved of her duties after being unceremoniously dumped by the best man via text – decides to hold her head up high and attend her oldest friend’s wedding anyway. She finds herself seated at the ‘random’ table in the back of the ballroom with a disparate group of strangers, most of whom should have known to just send regrets (but not before sending something nice off the registry).

‘As everyone’s secrets are revealed, Eloise learns a thing or two from the denizens of Table 19. Friendships – and even a little romance – can happen under the most unlikely circumstances.’

Written by the Duplass brothers and directed by Jeffrey Blitz, Table 19 also stars Lisa Kudrow, Craig Robinson, June Squibb, Stephen Merchant,Tony Revolori and Wyatt Russell. It should be out early next year. [Read more…]

New Hot Tub Time Machine 2 Trailer – Adam Scott, Craig Robinson and co. head for the future

December 10, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Hot Tub Time Machine 2 is making an early bid for least called for sequel of 2015 (no one really wanted the first film all that much), but on the evidence of this trailer, it may actually be better than the first film.

While the first film took the characters back to the 80s in the titular hot tub time machine, this time they’ll be going to the future. As this allows them to know about the future, it means they were able to change their lives – not always for the better. They also meet Adam Scott’s Adam, who’s the son of John Cusack’s character.

A February 20th US release is set, with the movie arriving in the UK two days before that. Take a look at the trailer below, and the new poster above. [Read more…]

It basically says that when the end of the world begins, the righteous will be whisked off to heaven, leaving everyone else behind to deal with the apocalypse. [Read more…]

April 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s tough to tell whether This Is The End is going to be as fun as it looks, or if the whole thing will be a giant in-joke that it’ll be tough for general audiences to get into.

As the world unravels outside, dwindling supplies and cabin fever threaten to tear apart the friendships inside. Eventually, they are forced to leave the house, facing their fate and the true meaning of friendship and redemption.

As this new red band trailer reveals, there’s also room for Emma Watson, and Hermione is going to steal all their shit! The movie arrives in cinemas this June.

MGM Hopes For Hot Tub Time Machine Sequel

January 16, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

hot-tub-time-machine-poster Normally Hollywood likes to get sequels up and going as soon as possible, but it’s taken MGM a while to decide they want another trip into the world of Hot Tub Time Machine. However THR reports that the studio is now making deals to try and make a follow-up a reality.

At the moment John Cusack isn’t involved (although that could change), but Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson and Clark Duke have all been in talks with the studio. Indeed Corddry may also take on scripting duties, alongside Steve Pink, the director of the last film (who is also in talks to return).

At the moment no deals have been signed, and THR suggests things could fall apart as it’s fairly early in the process, although if it all comes together MGM is likely to put the movie on the fast-track. There’s no news on the plot for the sequel and whether it would see the guys going back to the 80s again, or if this one would be set in a different era.
