New 'Pacific Rim' Trailer Promises To 'Cancel The Apocalypse'

April 30th, 2013 12:07pm EDT
Pacific Rim
A full-length, action-packed trailer has been released for Pacific Rim... and it's everything you hoped it would be.

In the new trailer, we get to see tons of robot-on-giant monster fighting as well as extended looks at how Jaegers (that's the name of the giant robots) are piloted from the inside.

We also get more than a few lines from Charlie Day of Always Sunny in Philadelphia, although we admit it's hard to take the comedian seriously in a role as a technician.

There's also hints at the relationship between Charlie Hunnam's and Rinko Kikuchi's characters, who are pilots rushed into ...

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'The Gang Recycles Their Trash'

October 19th, 2012 12:15pm EDT
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
After a Hopper incident that caused me to miss the premiere of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” (insert a Liam McPoyle slow-mo “Noooooooo!” here), the DVR gods were merciful and finally allowed me to get in on some Season 8 action. Although, while watching the cold open of this season’s second episode, I was a little concerned that, through some sort of weird, wormhole-y, space-time mix-up, I’d actually recorded an episode from Season 3, specifically “The Gang Finds a Dumpster Baby.” As Dennis, Mac and Dee waded through the trash piled up behind Paddy’s, Dennis’s remarks about their “thr...

'Horrible Bosses' Sequel Confirmed

January 5th, 2012 11:24am EST
Horrible Bosses
Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis are set to reunite for a follow-up to Horrible Bosses after the screenwriters agreed to pen a sequel, according to a report.

The movie, which centers on the trio's attempts to exact revenge on its mean employers, played by Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell and Kevin Spacey, was a summer hit last year, grossing $209 million at the worldwide box office.

Now the movie's writers, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, have signed a deal to create a follow-up - and the male leads are expected to star in the sequel, according to The Hollywood Re...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: 'The High School Reunion Part 2: The Gang's Revenge'

December 16th, 2011 11:28am EST
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” closed out its seventh season last night with the conclusion of last week’s high school reunion tale, and thankfully the second half was better than the first. Still, it didn’t come close to the high expectations I had for it. I may eventually come around on this (as I did with “The Nightman Cometh,” an episode I inexplicably didn’t like upon first viewing), but for now I’m calling it the series’ weakest season ender yet. (Oh, there will be rankings. Just wait.)

Picking up from where we left off last week, the gang is collectively humiliated. Dennis a...

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'The High School Reunion'

December 9th, 2011 11:14am EST
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
In the first half of the "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” Season 7 finale, the gang heads to their high school reunion. Although there were plenty of familiar names and faces and some good moments, the episode wasn’t up to the level that I expect from “Sunny” – especially for a season-ender. Hopefully, the second half will wrap up this season in the proper demented and darkly funny fashion.

It’s always been apparent that high school was a pivotal time for the gang, and none of them seem to have changed very much since those days. Dee may have physically changed – from the Aluminum M...

Kings Of Leon Members To Cameo On 'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia'

December 8th, 2011 8:52pm EST
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Kings of Leon rockers Nathan and Jared Followill are making their acting debut on Danny DeVito's madcap TV comedy It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

The brothers recently joined DeVito and cast members Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton and Rob McElhenney to film cameos for the cult series - and it airs on Thursday night.

Alerting fans to his guest appearance on his Twitter.com blog, Jared Followill writes, "I'm making my acting debut tonight on It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia... with @Glenn_Howerton. It's touching stuff."

And his proud brother and bandmate Nathan also urged fans to tune in,...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: 'Thunder Gun Express'

December 2nd, 2011 12:54pm EST
Kaitlin Olson in
Sorry for the delay with today's recap, folks. I was having some Internet problems. I blame Obama.

This week, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” tries a theme episode – the action-movie-within-an-action-movie, “Thunder Gun Express” – with mixed results. Although there are some funny moments, it never reaches the level of the brilliant “Community” theme episodes, against which all theme episodes must now be measured. Compared to its own attempts at themes or gimmicks, this installment of “Sunny” is certainly better than “Frank’s Brother” or “The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell,” but not near...

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'How Mac Got Fat'

November 18th, 2011 10:26am EST
Rob McElhenney in
While last week’s episode of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” started in the middle and never looked back, this week’s installment is told mostly in flashback. Via the classic church confessional setup, Mac finally acknowledges the elephant in the room: that he is the elephant in the room. (Oh, snap!)

Although Mac now realizes that the extra mass around his waist isn’t muscle, he isn’t about to take responsibility for being fat. As that poor priest quickly discovers, “How Mac Got Fat” is a convoluted story, told from Mac’s POV, that explains why the Paddy’s gang of “sinners and pricks...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: 'The Gang Gets Trapped'

November 11th, 2011 9:20am EST
Glenn Howerton, Kaitlin Olson and Charlie Day in
"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” shook up its formula this week with "The Gang Gets Trapped," a creative yet odd episode that caught up with the gang in media res. For a story that was pretty much all "middle"—with no flashback to its beginning and an awkward ending—it was easy to follow, wildly entertaining and jam-packed with laugh-out-loud moments.

The episode takes place entirely in an unknown person's home, and begins with Dennis and Dee trapped in the closet with R. Kelly nowhere to be found and Frank hiding under a bed. With a clever bit of exposition, Dennis quickly ge...

This week, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia” asks the questions: Would Paddy's Pub have more business if it had a Facebook page? Why does Dennis seem like a Facebook novice, when he should have long been using any number of social media sites to lure women down to the bang bunker? Is shushing just about the most annoying thing a person can do to another person? Can a man blow a sign off a building? Some of these are answered; the most vexing one is not. I mean, seriously, how has Dennis overlooked the woman-hunting power of the Internet thus far? Wasn't he on MySpace back when Frank creat...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: 'Chardee MacDennis: The Game Of Games'

October 28th, 2011 10:55am EDT
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
This week on "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” the gang introduces us to Chardee MacDennis. Although that sounds like a character from some terrible young adult fiction series, it’s not. It’s a game. Actually, to quote Charlie, “it’s not just a game, it’s a war.”

It seems that once upon a time, the gang created their own board game – a game that is once again being dusted off as an antidote to mind-numbing boredom. I immediately love this idea because I remember back to when I was a kid and how my friends and I would occasionally attempt to create the “best game ever” and fail miser...

'Always Sunny's' Kaitlin Olson Pregnant With Her Second Child

Kaitlin Olson
Married It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia co-stars Kaitlin Olson and Rob McElhenney are expecting their second child.

The actress gave birth to the couple's son, Axel Lee, last year and now the star is pregnant with another boy.

She jokes to People.com, "We're having a boy! We're so happy that Axel gets to have a brother so close in age. And that I get to add another set of balls to my very, very male world. We found out I was pregnant during my mom's birthday weekend in Ojai (California)."

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'The Storm of the Century'

Danny DeVito, Kaitlin Olson and Charlie Day in
Although it's not on the same level as the first few episodes of this season, the latest episode of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is definitely a step up from the meh-ness of last week's "Frank's Brother."

In "The Storm of the Century," we get to see how each member of the gang reacts to a potential crisis—in this case, the kind of media-hyped storm that drives people with perfectly normal digestive systems to run out and stock up on a year's supply of toilet paper.

It's revealed that Paddy's basement is equipped with a bunker, which Dee insisted upon prior to Y2K (the "robopocay...

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'Frank's Brother'

October 14th, 2011 1:50pm EDT
Danny DeVito in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
It seems that after the frenzied hilarity of the first three episodes and last week’s rather dark turn, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is taking a breather with a rather lackluster decade-spanning flashback fantasy. But given that this season has been strong right out of the gate, that’s perfectly OK.

Much like the other fantasy ep, “The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell,” “Frank’s Brother” probably won’t end up on a lot of “best of” lists nor does it really warrant repeated viewings. Still, it’s not without its charm. However, most of that charm doesn’t come from any of the main charac...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: 'Sweet Dee Gets Audited'

October 7th, 2011 10:31am EDT
Kaitlin Olson in
In its fourth episode, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" takes a quick meta-moment to acknowledge to the audience that it's really pushing the envelope this year. It seems a bit odd (and maybe a little late) to make that acknowledgement on a show that's always tested the boundaries of good taste. So what is the gang doing now that warrants poking a hole in the fourth wall? Oh, just throwing a baby funeral. That it's fake doesn't make it any less uncomfortable.

The not-really-dead baby in question is the one Dee gave birth to last season, and the one she's claimed (and intends to contin...

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' Recap: 'Frank Reynolds' Little Beauties'

Danny Devito in
This week, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" comes about as close as it ever will to producing a "Cable in the Classroom" lesson. Hopefully, everyone involved with "Toddlers and Tiaras" and idiot stage moms everywhere were paying attention to "Frank Reynolds' Little Beauties," because there will be a test later.

As I've mentioned in my previous recaps, the action so far on this season of Sunny has been frenzied. The first two episodes split the gang into groups of three, causing a LOT of story to get jammed into a mere half hour show. (Not that the rapid-fire hilarity hasn't been fun, ...

'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' Recap: The Gang Goes To The Jersey Shore

September 23rd, 2011 10:15am EDT
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Just like you can't always judge a book by its cover, you can't always judge a "Sunny" episode by its title. If anyone was worried that this week's installment would be a lackluster half hour filled with little more than orange skin and Snooki jokes, those fears were allayed by a barrage of images much more disturbing than the "Jersey Shore"'s STD-infested hot tub.

Last week, I mentioned that the premiere felt a little too all over the place. The same can be said for this week's episode, but for some reason, the more randomness that was introduced and the more things spiraled out of cont...

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Frank's Pretty Woman
When we last saw the Paddy's gang, they were witnessing the miracle of birth. When we caught up with them last night, they were dumping a dead hooker in the hallway. Ah, the circle of life.

If last season's baby-centric finale left anyone with a slightly sweet feeling, Season 7 quickly veers us back into sour territory, as "Sunny" pulls out all the sick and twisted stops that we've come to expect. Things get rolling when Frank, always striving to prove himself as the most disgusting member of the group, reveals that he has big plans for his hooker girlfriend Roxy (Alanna Ubach): "I'm gon...

After spending some time with FOX, my TCA (Television Critics Association) blog comes to an end with a look at sister network FX, which brought to Beverly Hills four returning series and a new one. Not to mention one big moment that I may unfortunately never be able to get out of my brain.

Last time we talked about FX, I mentioned that I have a great deal of respect for network president John Landgraf. I was certainly happy to hear the announcement Saturday morning that Landgraf, who's been with FX for more than seven years, had renewed his contract for three more. He'...

The Everything Must Go star and his partner, Jill Latiano, will welcome the child later this year.

Howerton announced the news on Twitter.com by posting a picture of the pair at the Cowboys & Aliens premiere in Los Angeles, alongside the words, "Check out my beautiful preggers (pregnant) wife, y'all."

Christmas will be extra special for Charlie Day this year - he's expecting his first child in December.

He tells People.com, "We've got a kid due in December. We're five months along, and she's feeling great. We're excited... We decided now is the time, and we were fortunate that it happened."

And the Horrible Bosses star is grateful the baby is due in winter because the parents-to-be will be on a shooting hiatus.

She explained, "It was difficult. Not only are you just showing a boob or something it's...the whole deal. In front of people. It's very strange. After the 15th time, then I was like, 'Why am I doing this so many times?'"

Jen made tongues wag over her new film "Horrible Bosses" and rumors she appears topless in it. She plays a raunchy, nympho dentist who sexually harasses her dental hygienist. She also wears skimpy lingerie while seducing Charlie Day's character.

Charlie Day Steals The Show In 'Horrible Bosses'

July 10th, 2011 1:31pm EDT
Horrible Bosses
It's often said that comedic acting is more difficult than dramatic acting, for various reasons. On one hand, it's a real shame that comedic actors are never recognized for their works with Oscars or other prestigious awards. On the other hand, so many comedies are so lazy (Adam Sandler's last five movies, for instance) that they deserve the derision and low reputation they get. All of this makes it all the more delightful when a brilliant, excellent, elevating comedic performance comes along; the kind delivered by Charlie Day in "Horrible Bosses."

From the beginning, Day has his work c...

'Horrible Bosses' Writers Defend Jennifer Aniston's Gay Slur

The writers behind Jennifer Aniston's new comedy Horrible Bosses have defended their decision to use a gay slur in the script, insisting the insult serves to highlight how nasty the actress' character really is.

The former Friends star sheds her clean-cut image to play sex-crazed bad girl dentist Julia, who harasses Charlie Day's character and becomes one of three monster managers whose employees plot to murder.

Aniston's character proves to be particularly nasty by telling her assistant, "You're starting to sound like a little f**got..."

I don’t think I’ve ever recalled a moment where I’ve wanted to kill one of my bosses. Truth be told, I’ve been somewhat blessed with people I’ve worked for, however, I will say that on more than one occasion I’ve wanted to kill a co-worker! You know that whining little wuss or wench that can’t keep their trap shut for any apparent reason? Or feel a sense of entitlement to render their services based off conniving actions? Yeah! That’s the person I’ve wanted to kill more than once—along with some women I’ve dated—but that’s neither here nor there! Why? Well, because this of course is about S...

“Horrible Bosses,” a black comedy starring funnymen Jason Bateman, Charlie Day (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) and Jason Sudeikis, is about three friends who conspire to kill each other’s torturous bosses. Although it doesn’t premiere in theaters until July 8, I have already heard buzz about the film’s epic hilarity from people who have attended early screenings. In honor of the movie's release (that also boasts the comedic stylings of Oscar-winner Kevin Spacey, a brunette Jennifer Aniston and a beer-bellied, balding Colin Farrell), I’m using my powers of imagination for good and ex...
