When upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple Kate and Brad find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation–and unable to escape–they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened… and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he can get away from their parents, step-parents, siblings and an assortment of nieces and nephews, Kate is starting to hear the ticking of a different kind of clock. And by the end of the day, she is beginning to wonder if their crazy families’ choices are not so crazy after all.

Ashton Kutcher, surely pondering the next addition to his media empire…or maybe his role in Five Killers.
Variety reports that Ashton Kutcher is set to star in Five Killers, an “action comedy.” Robert Luketic is directing Ted Griffin’s rewrite of Bob DeRosa’s spec script.
In the film, Kutcher will play an ex-hit man who finds out that a figure from his past has hired a group of killers to take him out. Chaos and zany adventures ensue.
Kutcher’s last movie was What Happened in Vegas, which turned into a surprise steady performer in the early part of the summer. Kutcher’s onscreen career has been kind of spotty, with more misses than hits. He’s been actually much more successful offscreen as a TV producer and business partner in some restaurants and such. I don’t know if anyone is waiting breathlessly for him to land his breakout film role; he may not even be waiting, hoping, or caring anymore. But this Five Killers thingy sounds like the kind of light property he should be able to handle, provided nothing else goes disastrously wrong with it, and no doubt it will provide financing for another of his business ventures.

Movie star Vince Vaughn is making the move to TV in an upcoming show with 20th Century Fox TV.
He’s close to inking a deal that will see him executive produce a half hour comedy pilot about a couple of young guys who are fresh out of college and learning all about the real world. Thankfully Vaughn won’t be playing the role of one of the college guys and will remain behind the camera at this stage.
Looks like Vaughn will be in charge of casting the show and dealing with the crew also, so he’s being given plenty of space to develop this in his own way. Should be interesting to see what he comes up with. For now though, you can look forward to seeing Vaughn in upcoming movie Four Christmases with Reese Witherspoon.

I know I know, little late. But last night I saw The House Bunny and I must admit, I was slightly impressed.
First off, it’s a cute movie to watch because it’s silly and ditzy. I thought it was a nice light comedy, nothing too crazy. I rate it a B- or a C+ because an A+ was Batman, and nothing measures up to Batman.
So, I do recommend y’all to see it, ON DVD. NOT IN THE THEATRES (unless you’re going to make out with your beloved, or you like spending time in the movies smelling like popcorn.)
Other than that, watch the movie with family, friends, it’s all good. Just don’t get too carried away and think thats how real life is.
