Andrew Bujalski Looks to Keep It Delightfully, Quietly Strange with “There There” Trailer

October 18, 2022
News
andrew bujalski, there there, trailer

Computer Chess and Support The Girls have arguably put Andrew Bujalski on the map as a preeminent indie filmmaker even though his films are devoid of any sort big premise or pops, bangs, whizzes. The uncanny touch of nuance he has with his stellar casts (it was truly a marvel to see Regina King in something as offbeat as Support The Girls) and how much humor he can draw out of the quieter moments in life is astounding.

His latest film, There There aims to further cement his comedy auteur stamp with conversations between several people through FaceTime/Zoom, presumably because of COVID-19 lockdown. It won’t just be a bunch of floating heads or solo monologues to the camera like HBO’s Coastal Elites, but rather capturing lonesome folks (that just happened to include Jason Schwartzman, Molly Gordon,  and capturing the absurdity/beauty of trying to stay connected to humanity via your laptop’s front facing camera.

Take a gander for yourself with There There‘s official trailer here, then look for its release on Nov. 18th.

Get Your First Look at Season 3 of Ramy

News
hulu, ramy, ramy youssef, season 3, trailer

It has been well over two years since we’ve last got to see Ramy explore the meaning of life and search for purpose from his modern day Muslim perspective in a dramedy-ish way in his critically acclaimed and eponymous series. Ramy himself has taken the stage plenty since then, when it was varying degrees of safer to do so. Hopefully, you got into one of those shows and that would have tided you over in awaiting the arrival of new episodes of Ramy, arguably one of the more daring series on TV without having to get into organized crime or warring fantasy lands.

Ramy and his whole TV family are back (along with Bella Hadid?), much like much of the world and it seems to be picking up, like so many of us, right where we left off in the beginning of 2020 with a crisis of belief, a forever fertile ground for comedy. See for yourself in this season 3 trailer here, then look for it to start streaming on Sept. 30th on Hulu.

Ruben Östlund Will Likely Cement Himself as One of Comedy’s Premier Auteurs with Triangle of Sadness

August 9, 2022
News
ruben ostlund, trailer, triangle of sadness

Between Force Majeure and The Square, Sweden’s Ruben Östlund has already put himself in the upper echelons of comedy filmmaking, certainly a far cry from most comedies that come through your local multiplex. In fact, those are such high art/arthouse comedies that they don’t seem like they’re in a category all their own along with a handful of films from Wes Anderson, Yorgos Lanthimos (The Lobster, The Favourite), and Armando Iannucci (Death of Stalin).

Östlund’s latest offering, Triangle of Sadness, which nabbed the Cannes Film Festival’s highest honor, the Palme D’or, looks like it will be yet another benchmark setting comedy that’s so searing in its pin-prickly nuances about privilege and the blindest of blindspots for people that are the most out of touch. The trailer finally made its way online and Östlund set his sights for his ornate satire towards the 1% and the ultra-beautiful as opposed to toxic masculinity or the modern art world and it might be his boldest, most cutting work yet.

With that in mind, Östlund’s name should be far more renowned, especially when, Downhill, an English language remake of Force Majeure bombed in nearly every way and is one of the few voices in cinema that the Academy will have in the running during awards season.

See all of this for yourself in the first “delicious” official trailer of Triangle of Sadness, then get ready to buy tickets for wherever it’s playing on Oct. 7th.

Also, round of applause for the best movie poster in probably the last decade.

OK, Here’s Your Actual First Look at the Fourth and Final Season of Atlanta

atlanta, donald glover, final season, fx, trailer

A few weeks ago, we caught a vibe of what the fourth and final season of Atlanta would be like, but it wasn’t any actual scenes from what’s to come. It was just a very, trippy, albeit, on-brand announcement teaser (though we wouldn’t be surprised if there are hints as to what will happen when Earn, Paper Boi, Darius, and Van all return from their tour in Europe).

Well, you can wonder a little less as the official trailer just dropped and we all get a real good look at how either everything’s changed back home, with them, and with the world (through Glover’s very sharply drawn lens).

Take a gander here, then get ready for this last round of Atlanta on FX on Sept. 15th (next day onHulu)

If the season finale of The Righteous Gemstones left you starving for more unabashed satire of televangelist megachurches, then you’ll be thrilled to know that there’s something coming your way, just for you, in a couple of months via Focus Features/Peacock.

Sterling K. Brown and Regina King star in the upcoming Ebo Twins’ HONK FOR JESUS. SAVE YOUR SOUL., possibly the most fun movie title of 2022. The film follows a documentary being made about them as a televangelist power couple that is under severe scrutiny and controversy and are pulling out all their smoke and mirrors in order to make a comeback.

Of course, their version of the light of God is so blinding that they can’t see how ridiculous it is to ask for people to “HONK FOR JESUS”. The egomaniacal hijinks that ensue do look pretty fun here.

See the latest fun peering into the cracks of organized religion with HONK FOR JESUS. SAVE YOUR SOUL.’s first trailer here, then look for it in theaters and on Peacock starting Sept. 2nd.

Here Are Your Latest Hints as to What Nathan Fielder Is Up to With ‘The Rehearsal’ (Trailer)

July 6, 2022
News
hbo, hbo max, nathan fielder, the rehearsal, trailer

With Nathan Fielder, like any actually good thriller, there’s always more to his bits/pranks/comedic performance art experiments than what is first presented. Talk of The Rehearsal has been swirling for what feels like years now and HBO just unveil the first official trailer of Fielder supposedly prepping people for real life situations via a painstakingly crafted “real world” rehearsal.

You’ll see Nathan deal with people that seem, like the good unsuspecting folks on Nathan For You, unlike any sort of performer or people connected to comedy in any way, shape, or form. Of course, Nathan has a penchant for setting up something where chaos is inevitable and then following with whatever happens and never breaking whatever his own personal “fourth wall” might be. Again, all enticing, but there absolutely has to be more underneath what is already a wild premise (though we’d expect nothing less from the mind behind Dumb Starbucks).

Thus far, this Rehearsal trailer promises the follow-up from Nathan Fielder that we’ve waited years plus the pandemic for and, thankfully, you’ll only have to wait until next Fri. Jul. 15th on HBO Max for it.

Truly, any time in between seasons is far too long to not spend with Nandor, Nadja, Laslo, Colin Robinson, and Guillermo and their vampiric antics that are largely trying to live their undead lives as best they can versus world domination.

This particular season will see Nandor once again redouble his efforts for finding love, a baby Colin Robinson, and the opening of their very own nightclub in order for the vampires to have a little more fun without risk of the sun.

Take a gander at season 4 of What We Do In the Shadows here, then get ready to sink your teeth in every week on FX starting Tues. Jul. 12th (and on Hulu the day after).

There was a short window of time where we feared that Tuca & Bertie might have come to abrupt end as the almighty algorithm at Netflix deemed it not worthy for another season and Lisa Hanawalt’s dream show might not get live out its wildest fantasies (that’s saying something considering how many fantastical things happen on the shows such as sexy, sentient plants).

Thank goodness to Adult Swim giving it, honestly, its proper home and letting us all see where Tiffany Haddish and Ali Wong as best bird friends forever will end up, often going through more raw emotional moments than some live action dramedy shows currently on air.

While Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez made it out alive for season 1 of Only Murders in the Building (because, of course, there has to be a few more seasons before they have something extremely drastic happen), they certainly didn’t escape unsullied. Steve Martin is throwing more flies into the ointment with season 2 of the thriller/comedy that might be scratching that itch that Search Party gave you with a competing murder podcast to Only Murders in the Building in the universe of the show and just happening to be tagged as prime suspects in the murder of yet another tenant of The Arconia.

HBO Max has made a lot of head way since its inception, especially in the realm of dramedy. Hacks has rightfully earned itself acclaim and awards and has been a very shiny part of the HBO Max brand and now, they’re continuing to make way with My Dead Dad from Pedro Correa, which they picked up off the festival circuit.

There’s not a lot of mystery behind the title as the film follows the aftermath of an estranged father’s death and everything a rudderless son has to figure out. Pedro Correa co-wrote and stars in My Dead Dad and has Fabio Frey directing and seems to have come up with that might be a bit bleaker than Beginners, but still sharply funny and heart wrenching all the same.

Watch the Trailer for B.J. Novak’s Send Up of True Crime Podcasts “Vengeance”

May 23, 2022
News
bj novak, trailer, vengeance

Only Murders in the Building broke new ground in comedy’s satirizing America’s obsession with true crime specifically as consumed through podcasts. This obsession is actually so fervent that there’s room for more than one send-up of how folks could fall into being amateur sleuths through podcasting about murder.

That’s where B.J. Novak’s latest work, Vengeance, comes in. Though it seemingly could have fit into his FX anthology series, this story stands along as a feature that follows Novak as someone who attempts to make a podcast out of what he thought was a misguided quest to avenge a family death and ends up being something way more than he bargained for. From the looks of the trailer, this could have been the most fun out of the stories that Novak came up for The Premise and, consequently, saved it for an entire movie.

In a lot of ways, this could have been the sort of plot that Hitchcock would come up with in 2022, though we’ll have to see the whole thing before we make on a full on Alfred Hitchcock comparison.

Watch the first official trailer for Vengeance here, then look for it in theaters starting 7/29.

The Trailer for Billy Eichner & Nicholas Stoller’s Bros Promises the Kind of Rom Com We’ve Been Waiting For

For all the gripes that people have justifiably had about romantic comedies over the last, let’s face it, decades, there is still an undeniable attraction and desire to see an unlikely couple come together, no matter how cheesy it might be. There is, with that in mind, still plenty of gold to be mined from rom coms.

Cue Billy Eichner and Nicholas Stoller‘s Bros, which has been billed as the first big all gay R-rated rom com from a major studio. While a more genuine, raunchy gay rom com has been due for a long time (unlike the very family friendly Single All the Way on Netflix), Bros sees that and raises us all the sharp the razor sharp comedic minds behind Difficult People and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Just take a gander for yourself in the trailer and know that we’re more un-ironically excited for Bros than we’ve been for a romantic comedy in a long, long, very long time. We won’t be surprised if this is the sort of long-standing, quotable rom com that people talk about like they did Bridesmaids.

Then, mark down Sept. 30th on your phone for Bros‘ release date so you can buy tickets in advance.

While some see the singularity, the theoretical point in time where artificial intelligence over takes humanity, as an oncoming annihilation akin to The Matrix, there are other possibilities where the future allows for AI and humankind to co-exist peacefully. In fact, we may even up being friends. Think about all the iconic droids from the Star Wars universe and how that might potentially be more likely?

Well, while pondering that endless quandary, take a gander at the trailer for Brian and Charles, the Sundance hit that shows how an amateur inventor ends up Frankenstein-ing his own robot and, subsequently, his best friend. The trio of David Earl (Kev on Ricky Gervais’ Derek), Chris Hayward, and Louise Brealey, who all star in the movie,  wrote such a charming, much more hopeful vision of the future with the washing-machine-bodied robot known as Charles. Again, while Black Mirror prescribes a future where robots hunt us, Brian and Charles seems like it has a bunch of heart between human & AI friends.

See for yourself with the first trailer for Brian and Charles here, then look for its release on Jun. 17th.

News
hbo, pause, sam jay, season 2, trailer

Pause with Sam Jay arrived in the realm of talk shows and disrupted pretty much every facet that had ever been established. There was no set, no house band, and it mostly was centered on conversations with fellow comedians and friends that Sam would have during a real house party/hang, often while playing pool or while getting drinks made in the kitchen. There were remote segments and sketches, but even those were more interested in thematic guests than any sort of celebrity.

For all the times that we’ve wanted a real shake-up in late night/talk shows, Pause is part of a legitimate wave of that actually happening. Season 2 is coming up in a week and it looks like Sam is only doubling down on this new way of doing a talk show focusing on topics like handling death, addiction, queer rights, etc. which we’re plenty on board for.

Take your first gander at season 2 here, then look for the premiere on HBO starting Fri. May 20th.

Adam Conover Is Set to Ruin Whatever You Thought You Knew About the Government with “The G Word”

It has been far too long since Adam Conover has been serving his incredibly clever edutainment via the beloved series Adam Ruins Everything. In fact, it feels like it has been a decade since a sharply dressed Conover “ruined” something for the collective consciousness, but that probably has something to do with the last episode airing in late 2019 and then a certain pandemic bringing everything to a screeching halt (as well as TruTV changing their network brass and programming strategy).

Well, thankfully, Conover is back with a brand new series that aims to enlighten about the actual day-to-day functioning of the government, specifically the parts that we almost never seen on TV. Due to the actions or inactions of folks like Mitch McConnell or POTUS Biden, there continues to be a deep distrust of the government even though they are plenty of non-partisan, essential moving parts to the government apparatus. Conover is seeking to comedically present a lot of those folks responsible for said parts and then have you reassess your feelings about “the G word”

You can take a gander of what Adam has up his very sharply suited sleeve with the first trailer for The G Word here, then look for the premiere on May 19th.

When it comes to the prospect of making a biopic about the rise of musical comedy parody extraordinaire Weird Al Yankovic, Daniel Radcliffe doesn’t immediately come to mind as to who to play him. That said, the Internet should have learned by now to hold off from initial judgment of who might be right or not to play a real life person until you actually see it for yourself. Admittedly, Radcliffe as Al Yankovic, thus far, does emphasize the title “Weird” quite nicely.

Roku just released the teaser for their original production Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which has Radcliffe in a big ol’ afro and accordions at the ready and, above all else, it seems like this is going to be a pretty wild movie showing off a side of Weird Al that a lot of folks aren’t really acquainted with (especially since he’s more of an elder statesman of comedy these days).

Take a gander for yourself here, then look for it to stream exclusively on Roku for free this Fall.

Hacks Season 2 Trailer Looks to Up the Ante

The first season of Hacks from Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, and Jen Statsky brought us all, for our money, the best depiction of stand-up in any sort of scripted TV or movie. It also really sunk its teeth into how the goal posts keep moving for women in entertainment, specifically in comedy and how class and privilege underhandedly weave themselves into the tapestry. Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder capture all of these dynamics in their dazzling pairing and made us want season 2 as soon as we finishing speeding through season 1.

Thank goodness that the second season of the instant critical and fan darling is coming very, very soon on Thurs. May 12th on HBO Max and we’ll get to see what famed comedian Deborah Vance (a fictionalized version of many comedians, but very much drawing from comedy legend Joan Rivers) working on a whole new hour on the road while also making a creative pivot to more personal material. As we said in the headline, the trailer for season 2 seems to up the ante from season 1 and it might be even wilder (especially if Megan Stalter gets more screen time).

The first season of Ziwe having the keys to her very own talk show was some of the most delectable satire in late night and this next upcoming season (streaming Fri. Apr. 29th on Showtime) is going to one-up that as you can see in this season 2 trailer here.

Ziwe will march on in her iconic mission to be unflinching in picking apart issues and celebrities (and even her own writers). This season will have Baited-ish interviews with Ilana Glazer, Chet Hanks, Nicole Byer, Hannibal Buress, Adam Pally, Charlamagne Tha God, Emily Ratajkowski, Katya Zamolodchikova, and Mia Khalifa (and the Hannibal, Ilana, and Chet ones seem like they’ll be iconic from the get go).

You ought to know and be eternally grateful for what Canada has given to the world of sketch comedy. Nathan Fielder, Lorne Michaels (the forever grandfather of SNL), and Kids in the Hall.

Of the three, Kids in the Hall made their mark over 20 years ago by being darker and weirder in a way that sketch comedy or any of television had ever seen (and hasn’t been seen much since until I Think You Should Leave). Thankfully, Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson are rounded up once more for another round of The Kids in the Hall and they’re going to be as daring as ever, a bold endeavor in 2022, as you can see in this red band trailer for their upcoming Amazon prime edition.

Sure, there’s plenty of NSFW stuff in the trailer, but it’s pretty clear that they’re doing a pretty spot on send-up of Lorne in pondering what the return of The Kids in the Hall should look like. The series premieres on May 13th and we can only wonder (and hope) that SNL/Lorne responds?

Catherine Cohen has been such a maven of her particular brand of high gloss, yet vulnerable cabaret/musical comedy for so long that she has built a die-hard following that has packed out both Club Cumming as well as IG Live when she had to live-stream her main stay show, Cabernet Cabaret. That being the case, an hour special has been a long time coming and that, in of itself, is a twist for all the years passing until now when this special, The Twist… ? She’s Gorgeous is debuting on Netflix.

Cohen put this very first hour up at the hallowed NYC comedy staple, Joe’s Pub, which we’re thrilled that Netflix subscribers (and friends w/Netflix passwords) will get to see just in case they haven’t seen its intimate majesty.

It’s not enough to say that Pamela Adlon’s Better Things is one of the best comedies on TV during this current Golden Age of Television and the rise of prestige comedies. It’s truly one of the most beautiful shows on TV for how much unfettered humanity it explores, especially in regards to a relationship between mothers and daughters. Also, Adlon has a multi-sensory feast of preparing delicious food on the show, having a great soundtrack, and truly show off LA (or any other city the show visits) in such a luminous way (on top of having iconically hysterical moments) that we believe that this show will stand the test of time.

It’s only a few weeks more until the premiere of the fifth and final season on Feb. 28th on FX (streaming on Hulu), but, in knowing that, these coming days will probably feel so damn long. In the meantime, you can re binge the whole series on Hulu and watch the trailer for this new season.

Nick Cage Gets Meta (Even More So Than He Ever Has) for “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent”

December 14, 2021
News
nicholas cage, trailer, unbearable weight of massive talent

For the last couple of decades, Nicholas Cage has built a mythos out of his outlandish performances in movies that range from awards contenders to straight-to-DVD. The movie Mandy was almost designed exclusively to have Cage to cut looser than he has ever before (and somewhat eschewed story to help achieve that goal).

So, perhaps, taking a cue from Jean Claude Van Damme and his meta-character study, JCVD, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent follows Cage being Nick Cage in taking on ludicrous gigs to pay off his ever burgeoning pile of debts, many as far out as he is (i.e. private island, dinosaur skull, etc.) and then having to be the real life version of his insane characters to pull a “real” covert operation. The lines between all the various shades of Nicholas Cage is fascinating here, especially with Nick consciously playing a supposedly farcical version of himself in this most Nick Cage of Cage vehicles from Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten.

We can only ponder what the hell promo for this is going to be like.

Besides very likely having the best title of any movie this year, Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn might give Pam & Tommy a run for its money when it comes to comedies about a private sex tape finding its way online.

Radu Jude’s latest follows a teacher whose sex tape leaks online and then has to confront a community about it to see whether they will let her keep her job or not. Though not nearly as high profile a story as Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s sex tape and the scandal that followed (and hailing all the way from Romania), Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn does seem to promise a very fun discussion on voyeurism and obscenity and what looks to be one of the funniest scenes in a movie (as the teacher has to sit and watch teachers and parents watch her sex tape in front of her).

Get a taste of what’s to come yourself with the trailer for Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn here, then look for it in limited release in the U.S. staring Fri. Nov. 19th.
