Total Recall: John Cusack's Best Movies

10 November 2009 5:40 AM, PST | Rotten Tomatoes | See recent Rotten Tomatoes news »

For much of the 1980s, John Cusack was one of Hollywood's most dependable go-to guys for affable leads in teen romantic comedies -- typecasting that led to some great films (Better Off Dead, Say Anything...) as well as some rather forgettable efforts (Hot Pursuit, One Crazy Summer). But beneath that guy-next-door exterior lurked the heart of a thespian, and over the last 20 years, Cusack has assembled one of the more eclectic filmographies in the biz, starring in action flicks (Con Air), quirky dramas (Being John Malkovich), and even dabbling in horror (1408). With his starring turn in Roland Emmerich's... »

27 August 2009 2:29 PM, PDT | Filmicafe | See recent Filmicafe news »

Comedian and movie maker Bobcat Goldthwait has revealed best pal Robin Williams is a member of Hollywood's well-hung club after shooting the Oscar winner waxed and naked in new film World's Greatest Dad.Williams, who is famously hirsute, insisted on stripping for a scene in the film and wowed cast and crew by keeping his clothes off for the day.One Crazy Summer star Goldthwait was so impressed with his pal and star's manhood, he can't understand why Williams doesn't bare all in every film.The director says, "I spent the whole day with Robin... He's bottomless for the whole day on the set and I was like, 'Why are you insecure...?' If I was hung like him I wouldn't have pants on right now. Honestly, if that was me, I'd just be, like, walking around: 'How do you like me now, b**ches?'"But Williams' »

John Cusack acknowledges the idiocy in 'Hot Tub Time Machine'...and we think we like it

28 July 2009 5:22 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Now that we've had a few days to digest the gloriously moronic (and Nsfw) trailer for John Cusack's upcoming time-travel comedy Hot Tub Time Machine, we can't help thinking that it will either be the stupidest movie Rob Schneider never made or a so-dumb-it's-brilliant instant classic.  Well, after speaking with Cusack about it, we're more convinced than ever it will be the latter.  "We just finished shooting it a week or so ago," says Cusack, who stars in the film with Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, and Clark Duke and succinctly describes the film as "four idiots who are thrown back into the '80s to go boldly where men have gone before." "It's a ridiculous film. You're pretty much either sold with the title, or it's not for you." By the way, if you haven't seen the trailer, here you go...  We'll admit it. The first time we watched this thing, »

Hot Tub Time Machine – Red Band Trailer

28 July 2009 1:12 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Simplicity is sometimes the brilliant way to go. Mission accomplished for Hot Tub Time Machine.

A group of men (John Cusack, Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson and Clark Duke) are thrown back in time to their younger days in 1986, thanks to their hot tub. It’s also fair to say this movie will be the absolute opposite of The Time Traveler’s Wife with Eric Bana.

It’s almost like I want John Cusack to declare this is the third film in some sort of odd trilogy with Better Off Dead and One Crazy Summer. After all, those films came out in 1985 and 1986. Perhaps Cusack could hook up with Demi Moore again. After all, she somehow hasn’t aged since appearing in One Crazy Summer. I just hope there’s still time for him to save the assisted living home.

The trailer is red band, enjoy.

the oh-no! DVD of the week: ‘Legally Blondes’

28 April 2009 12:21 PM, PDT | www.flickfilosopher.com | See recent FlickFilosopher news »

Never mind that tacking an S onto the end of the title completely ruins the wordplay, this is just wrong: Elle Woods may have moved upward and onward through law school, but her pink and frilly spirit lives on in her young, adorable cousins Annabelle and Isabelle (Camilla and Rebecca Rosso). Fresh from England, the blond twosome assume their savviness in all things fashion will help them make friends at their new California prep academy in no time flat. One can imagine their frizz-inducing horror, then, when they discover that their new place of learning is run by uniform-loving, junior-capitalist snobs! After the most influential students at school frame Anna and Izzy for a crime they didn’t commit, it’s up to the girls to prove not only their innocence, but their capabilities. Reese Witherspoon presents this spin-off of the beloved franchise that helped make her a superstar. Legally Blondes »
