I’m seriously impressed with this video. Katherine Heigl? Colin Hanks? Making out? You better believe it. I didn’t even know they were on a show together. Why couldn’t have it been shot inside a volcano? Throw in some crappy YouTube editing and a song by that guy from Nickelback, and wow, whoever made this, you clearly have a direct line into my subconscious. It’s so perfectly full of things I hate, and not even the first things that I’d think of, like techno and hipsters, it’s like stuff that I hate that I forgot even existed, like soy smoothies and that cocky asshole Josh. Anyway, to whoever made this, well done, and may we never hang out.

The full trailer for the Great Buck Howard recently hit the web, and it features Steve Zahn AND Colin Hanks! Together! At last! In fact, not only is Hanks, that lurky, lumpy ball of pasty awkwardness, the main character, he gets to make it with Emily Blunt. F-ck you, Hollywood.
Colin Hanks’ favorite pickup line? “Hey, does this smell like chloroform?”
The Great Buck Howard premiered to largely positive reviews at Sundance in January and will be getting a theatrical release sometime next year. It stars John Malkovich as “an illusionist in decline” and Colin Hanks as a law school dropout who takes a job as his assistant, much to the chagrin of his father, played by Tom Hanks. A magician’s assistant? Hey, dad, it could be worse. I mean, at least he’s not Colin Ha- oh f-ck.
Also starring Steve Zahn!
The Daily Mail today has pictures of Meg Ryan looking fat, and *yoink* now I have them. Ta Da! They’re from the set of her new movie My Mom’s Hot Boyfriend, which I could’ve sworn was either an MTV gameshow or a gay porno. In the film, she loses the weight and dates Antonio Banderas, while creepy mouthbreather Colin Hanks plays her son, an FBI agent who thinks Banderas may be an art thief. Meanwhile, I think he may be a bike thief. Hard to say though, all minorities kind of look alike to me. (I kid, I kid)
It’s also probably important to note that Ryan is wearing a fat suit in the pictures and didn’t actually gain any weight for the role. Because she’s a terrible actress.

After the jump I’ve got the international trailer for The House Bunny, opening August 22nd.
The House Bunny stars Anna Faris alongside Colin Hanks and Rumer Willis. All it needs is Bryce Dallace Howard to completely lock up the ugly-kids-of-famous people demographic. It’s the second film from director Fred Wolf, whose first effort, Strange Wilderness, racked up an impressive 0.0% recommended rating on RottenTomatoes and grossed just $6.9 million dollars worldwide. Basically, if you went to all the theaters where this was playing and sold Chiclets, you would’ve made more than the movie did.
Still, I can’t help but think this has that cheesy and dumb but in a lovable way feel, a lá Legally Blonde or Clueless. I wouldn’t be surprised if it made a lot of money. But don’t listen to me, the drugs I’m on leave me incapable of surprise. How do I feel about living like this? Meh, it’s okay, I guess.
