Untertainment Weakly (8-3-12)

By Jake

The cast of “Modern Family” has agreed to a new contract.

Dan Harmon has a deal with CBS to write a sitcom pilot.

The sequel to the surprisingly good “X-Men: The First Class” will be confusedly titled “X-Men: Days of Future Past.”

Bill Murray is still not going to be in a third “Ghostbusters” film.  

Larry David’s movie starring Jon Hamm and Michael Keaton is headed to HBO.

Vince Vaughn is producing a reboot/update of “The Brady Bunch” for CBS.  Didn’t they do this already?  Wasn’t it called “Step-by-Step”?

“The Hobbit” is now a trilogy.  Yawn.

There is going to be a “Bad Santa” sequel.  No one is excited.

Tia Mowry has landed a pilot on “Nickelodeon.”

The producer of “Rush Hour” is clamoring for another sequel.  

“Louie” is renewed for a fourth season.

Matthew Perry Watch

“Go On” is getting a sneak preview this Wednesday (August 8th) as a loose tie-in with the Olympics.

Movies Out This Weekend
Total Recall - Does anybody in the world want to see this movie?  The original is, let’s face it, pretty bad.  This one looks like a blander version.  PG-13 means no three breasted aliens and no blood.  WWE is TV-PG and they can do blood.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days - Is this movie about a kid or dogs?  Maybe both.  Maybe neither.  If you see this movie you will die.

Movies I Watched This Week
The Watch 7/10 This movie received terrible reviews, but I really enjoyed it.  It was funny and Vince Vaughn and Richard Aoyade were both really good in it.
Miss Congeniality 2 4/10  Bad.  For the most part, it doesn’t even seem like the same Sandy B character until the third act.  I could write an essay about this movie.
Cabin Boy 6.5/10 Surprisingly good, unsurprisingly weird.
Goon 7/10 A good hockey movie about a “goon,” a dude who beats the shit out of people.
Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical 6/10 An okay movie that goes on a little long.  The songs are not particularly good for the most part, but the dancing is.
Drive Me Crazy 4/10 Pretty shitty.  Something about the movie just didn’t click.

Song of the Week
