American Pie: Reunion (DVD)

September 7, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott, Chris Klein, Alyson Hannigan, Thomas Ian Nicholas
Director: Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg
Running Time: 108 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: September 10th 2012

It’s nine years since we last caught up with the original American Pie gang. Since then we’ve had four straight-to-DVD titles that threatened to make the Pie name as dodgy as National Lampoon’s has become in the last couple of decades. However now they’ve managed to get pretty much all of the main Pie actors back, as well as most of the minor ones, with the likes of the Sherminator popping up for cameos.

While the gang have gone their separate ways, they all head back to East Great Falls for a reunion. Getting back together causes everyone to take stock of their lives and reminisce on the differences between who they’ve become and who they thought they’d be. Jim (Jason Biggs) is still married to Michelle (Alyson Hannigan) and they have a young kid together, but are having difficulty finding time to make love. [Read more…]

Think Like A Man Tops The US Box Office

April 23, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Hollywood has never quite gotten to grips with the African American audience, so that every time a film with a largely black cast does well, it’s treated as a massive surprise. That’s certainly the case with Think Like A Man, which was barely on most people’s radar but scored a huge $33 million opening to top the box office chart.

The film knocked the movie many had expected to top the chart, The Lucky One, into second spot with $22 million. It’s certainly not a bad start for a romantic drama and marks a rare weekend when two female-focussed movies have opened strong against one another.

Disneynature’s Chimpanzee opened in fourth spot with $10.3 million, which is the biggest opening ever for a nature documentary. Take a look below for the US box office top 10 for the weekend of April 20th-22nd.

Rank Title Weekend Gross (millions) Total Gross to date (millions)
1 Think Like A Man $33.0 $33.0
2 The Lucky One $22.8 $22.8
3 The Hunger Games $14.5 $356.9
4 Chimpanzee $10.2 $10.2
5 The Three Stooges $9.2 $29.3
6 Cabin In The Woods $7.7 $26.9
7 American Reunion $5.2 $48.3
8 Titanic 3D $5.0 $52.8
9 21 Jump Street $4.6 $127.0
10 Mirror Mirror $4.1 $55.2

Hunger Games Tops US Box Office For The Fourth Week

April 16, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Although it held the top spot more due to a lack of new breakout hits than anything else, The Hunger Games is now the first film since Avatar to stay at number 1 on the US box office chart for four weeks running. It added another $21.5 million to take its total to an impressive $337 million.

That meant the weekend’s main new releases had to settle for second and third spot, with The Three Stooges doing the best, taking $17.1 million. It’s reported that the audiences largely consisted of under-25s, the group who know least about the real Stooges, but who do like the Farrelly Brothers’ brand of comedy.

Cabin In The Woods took third spot with an okay but not particularly great $14.8 million. Despite great reviews, it appears the general audience didn’t take to it, with reports that many disliked it due to the fact it wasn’t the generic splatter horror movie they thought they were getting (and films do tend to get pilloried in the word of mouth stakes if they aren’t exactly what they appear to be from the marketing).

The only other new entry in the top 10 was Lockout, which took a rather disappointing $6.2 million to finish in 9th place. It’s off from most other recent Luc Besson produced action, and suggests audiences didn’t take to its ‘Escape From New York but in space’ premise.

Take a look below for the US box office top 10 for the weekend of April 13th-15th.

Rank Title Weekend Gross (millions) Total Gross to date (millions)
1 The Hunger Games $21.5 £337
2 The Three Stooges $17.1 $17.1
3 Cabin In The Woods $14.8 $14.8
4 Titanic 3D $11.6 $44.4
5 American Reunion $10.7 $39.9
6 Mirror Mirror $7.0 $49.4
7 Wrath Of The Titans $6.9 $71.2
8 21 Jump Street $6.8 $120.5
9 Lockout $6.2 $6.2
10 Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax $3.0 $204.4

Jason Biggs Goes Full Frontal In American Pie: Reunion!

April 14, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Are penises funny? In the world of comedy movies they apparently are, as the ultimate thing for a comedy actor to do is often seen as being to get his bits out. It certainly worked for Jason Segel, as the appearance of little Jason in Forgetting Sarah Marshall was much talked about, while the likes of Jason Mewes and Rob Schneider have also graced us with the hilarity of their dicks.

Now it’s Jason Biggs’ turn, who does a brief full frontal in American Pie: Reunion. Now Michael Musto over at The Village Voice has the proof. We’re prudes so we’ve censored the image below, but if you want the full whack (as it were), head over to the Village Voice. And if you’d like to see his wang 20 feet high at cinemas, the film hits the UK on May 2nd. [Read more…]

New American Pie: Reunion Red Band Trailer

March 28, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


It seems an extra decade hasn’t dimmed the rudeness of the American Pie guys, with this new red band trailer suggesting their sexual shenanigans are still rampant when they get back together for a high school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler’s mom. Now these lifelong friends have come home as adults, but they’re still causing havoc!

Fresh American Pie: Reunion Trailer

February 23, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


A new trailer for American Pie: Reunion is here, keen to say that while it’s been several years since we last caught up with Jim, Oz, Stifler and co. things are very much the same and although they’ve grown up, their teenage selves still lurk inside. Here’s the synopsis: ‘In the comedy American Pie: Reunion, all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler’s mom. Now these lifelong friends have come home as adults to reminisce about—and get inspired by—the hormonal teens who launched a comedy legend.’ The film hits cinemas May 2nd.
