Bill Murray to release new book in the Fall

/ peterbohjalian / Leave a comment

As first reported by Supercompressor and other sources, a new book detailing the life, career, and exploits of none other than Bill Murray himself will be dropping in September. Excited? You should be.

The man has been a legendary actor for decades now, with a career spanning from the earliest years of Saturday Night Live, to Caddy Shack, Groundhog Day, then Ghost Busters, and all the way to, more recently, even dramatic roles like his award-winning turn in Lost in Translation.

“So I got that goin’ for me.” Classic.

But in recent years, he’s become almost as well known for his good natured, and spontaneous antics, documented in a myriad of internet stories. So the book, which is being touted as ‘part biography, part critical appreciation, part love letter, and all fun’, and which spans the entirety of Murray’s career, including every single theatrical performance, is sure to be a seriously entertaining read. We personally, can’t wait.

Don Rickles rips Jimmy Fallon and The Roots

Don Rickles is an old school comedian who made a name for himself back in the days when Johnny Carson and David Letterman were the late night TV hosts du jour. He was known as an insult comedian of the finest order, who’s also had a number of dramatic roles over his career, and although he’s getting up a bit in the years now, an appearance he made the other night on Jimmy Fallon shows that the man has certainly still got it. He has some great stuff for Fallon, and even has some good lines for QuestLove as well. Check it out below.

Leonardo DiCaprio x Tom Hardy x Alejandro Inarritu = COMPLETE EPICNESS

Fresh off cleaning up last Award’s season with the visually stunning Birdman, director Alejandro Inarritu has dropped his new trailer this morning for the upcoming The Revenant, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy.

Based partially on true events as recorded in a novel of the same name by Michael Punke, the movie follows legendary explorer Hugh Glass (DiCaprio) in the rugged wilderness of the absolute earliest stages of the Wild West on a quest for survival, revenge, and ultimately; freedom. But seriously, words do this trailer no justice.

Wednesday Morning Movie Trailer Round-Up

It is the industry standard that DVDs, Blu Rays, and CDs (those still ship?) are delivered to electronics stores on Tuesdays. I wish I could tell you why. But what I’m less sure of is if Wednesdays are a common day for movie studios to drop new trailers.

That certainly seems to be the case this Wednesday, as a couple of pretty awesome previews have already appeared online. And we, of course, have them aggregated here for you below.

‘Joy’ is the newest film from David O’Russell, director of Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle. The movie is being described as wild, generational story centered around ‘the woman who founds a business and becomes a matriarch in her own right’. It stars Jennifer Lawrence, who has appeared also in both the O’Russell films mentioned above.

The other new trailer out this morning is an awesome looking new comedy from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, which appears to be a type of Step Brothers/Old School hybrid, aka, appears to be pretty promising.

Both movies are due out later this year.

Epic, American news coming out of Comic Con

When news came out recently that Sylvester Stallone would be reprising his role of Rocky in what looks to be an actually awesome new movie, we were pretty pumped. But now, as news arrived this weekend fresh out of Comic Con that not only will Rocky be getting a revisit, but none other than the iconic RAMBO himself will ride again; this time against ISIS(!!!). Could be stupid. Or it could actually the one of the most epic action movies of all time, even if it’s all but guaranteed to be somewhat campy. This writer though, is hoping for the latter.

Rambo versus ISIS? It really could be too good to miss, even if the last time Rambo appeared on screen was in the disappointing 2008 turn, Rambo: Last Blood (aka Rambo 5. And, don’t forget the ironically beloved Expendables series). However, inserting ISIS as the villains this time around just might be enough to make it more than a little bit watchable. Details are scarce as of this writing, but the movie appears to be due out sometime in 2016. And personally, we can’t wait.
