When I sat down in the theater for the press screening of “The Change-Up” I wasn’t expecting anything out of the ordinary. As far as I could tell the movie was going to be a nice excuse for everyone to drool and sigh over Ryan Reynolds for little over an hour, but within the first few minutes of the film and after a flash of projectile baby excrement thwarted at Jason Bateman’s face, I knew that this flick was more than just Freaky Friday with an R-rating. This film was a game changer.

“The Change-Up”, starring Reynolds and Bateman, focuses on old friends Dave (Jason Bateman) and Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) who want each other’s lives. As imagined, the pals are total opposites — with Dave being the responsible lawyer and father and Mitch being the bachelor guy who sleeps with copious amounts of strange women (and in this case,  strange includes a very pregnant chick). The two finally get their wish after letting their flow go in a magical fountain. Sounds Disney, but right from the get go these guys are SO convincing and enthralling that you set aside all disbelief and go along for the ride.

You’ll spend the next hour or so after the initial plot kick off cringing, laughing and being somewhat grossed out (yet wanting more) of Reynolds character’s antics as he tries to adapt to “adult life”. You’ll also be wanting nothing more than to see Bateman’s make it out alive through this life switch.

We were all bummed when Fox announced way back in 2006 that we would no longer see the ridiculous antics of the Bluth family in Arrested Development because apparently no one understood their humor or something. I mean, the family runs a banana stand. Do you even need me to tell you that’s funny? Also, Michael Cera was chubby then, and it was ridiculously cute to watch him flirt with his cousin.

Anyway, there’s been a lot of talk recently (and apparently the rumors are true this time) about an Arrested Development film in the works. Seeing as this could possibly be the best idea I have ever heard, I’m pretty pissed that I didn’t come up with it myself. So that got me thinking, what are some other TV shows that would do great on the big screen? Read More »

We all know that David Beckham is too. hot. for. words. And we wouldn’t turn down a romp in the sack with Brad Pitt, Will Smith or Jason Bateman. But, there is something to be said for the nerdy boys. They are sweet, smart and totally under-rated.

I have always held a soft-spot in my heart for the underdogs, and techy, nerdy boys are no exception. So, I am bringing to you the hottest nerds out there.

These boys give nerdery a verrry good name.

Celebdom is full of run-of-the-mill gorgeous people. We all fantasize and have our little lists of who we’d hook up with… but there are some that you just don’t talk about. Those famous people who aren’t exactly of the pre-Angie Brad Pitt reputation.

I have a list of celebrities I find attractive but maybe shouldn’t admit are attractive. These are not the Justin Timberlakes or David Beckhams, but instead, some questionable characters that I (secretly?) feel deserve some consideration:

Chris Brown. He is 18, and therefore I am allowed to judge him. He can dance. And I love that stupid “Kiss, Kiss” song, something I also am a little embarrassed about. I found his stint on the OC rather ambitious. He is kind of adorable.

Jon Stewart. At only 5’7″, he doesn’t meet my usual height requirement. But he’s hilarious. He’s smart. He played soccer at William and Mary. I love him. Read More »
