TMMC Goes Green

There's something comforting in that green screen that pops up every time the lights go down in a movie theater.  Like taking solace in knowing Arnold Schwarzenegger can never be president, you know every time you go to a movie you'll get an amuse-bouche to start you out before the main event (thanks for teaching me something Food Network!)  Since starting TMMC, I've been to a lot of movies and in the process seen a lot of previews.  Some look interesting, some look funny, some look tragic and still none of them have Keanu Reeves.  Regardless, there's something for everyone hitting the theaters soon.  So today, I invite you to take a gander at what's to come.  I'm sure you'll find something you'll want to see.  And don't worry men, I won't tell anyone if you sneak a peak at Sex and the City, TMMC doesn't judge. 

FOR THE GIRLS:  All you Anne Geddes fans out there who love seeing babies in awkward situations, the wait the movie you've been waiting for is finally here.  Four babies, four countries, 1 year and a million + diapers later, this light hearted documentary will most certainly act as birth control if you need it.  Give the gift of life and check out the Babies. 

FOR THE GUYS:  Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure meets The Hangover in this comedy about a magical hot tub that transports four women chasing (the movie isn't nearly as kind as that) friends back in time where they encounter themselves in 1986.  An interesting move for John Cusak's follow up to 2012, but with The Hangover winning a Golden Globe for best picture, maybe this'll be John's big break at an Oscar - good lord.  Take a dip in the Hot Tub Time Machine.  Note, this trailer is rated R. 

FOR THE GAYS:  They couldn't just stop at one could they?  The Sex and the City girls are back, yet again, this time a bit older, saggier and...wiser?  Doubtful.  Whether you're as weary about it as I am, they're rolling the dice hoping to squeeze the last bucks out of the franchise.  This time it appears they're headed to the middle east, giving terrorist a whole new reason to hate America.  Whine on ladies, you know I'll still see you in SITC 2. 

FOR THE FAMILY:  Speaking of dying franchises, enter Shrek.  No I'm not talking about the first through third movies, nor the Broadway musical, I'm talking about Shrek 4.  Will it still be endearing?  Has the economy hit Dreamworks that hard?  And why couldn't Mike Myers have just kept the Austin Powers franchise going instead?  At least it's in 3-D, that might be interesting.  Shrek: Forever and Ever and Ever and Ever and...I mean Shrek:  Forever After.

Hope you enjoyed.  Visit us again tomorrow to check out the TMMC review of It's Complicated.  Until then, don't forget to vote in the TMMC poll of the week!
