Harold-Kumar-02

The reunion of Harold, Kumar and Neil Patrick Harris [playing ‘Neil Patrick Harris’] is a joyous paean to the power of bromance, true love and claymation – it’s also rude, crude, crass, vulgar and all sorts of wrong on so many levels. That’s what makes it so much fun!

Well Smurf It All Anyway!

Smurfette, Gutsy, Clumsy, Brainy and Papa Smurfs in Columbia PIctures' THE SMURFS.

The Smurfs is an attempt to bring the cheerful, three-apples-tall blue folks of the long running run Belgian comics series by Peyo to life using a mix of live action and CG in 3D. It’s a little slow for the under-six crowd and a little too insubstantial for the over six crowd.

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER

Wow! There is a lot going on in the sixth season premiere of How I Met Your Mother [CBS, Mondays, 8/7C]. Marshall [Jason Segal] and Lily [Alyson Hannigan] have decided to try to have a baby; Robin has devolved into a formless inhaler of Cheetos over losing Don; Ted [Josh Radnor] is fixated on a cute girl at the bar, and Barney [Neil Patrick Harris] is both wowed by the girl at the bar and moved to pronounce Robin’s ability to entice gone forever. And that’s not the half of it.

in Video Games

The more I hear about Shattered Dimensions, the more I can’t wait to play it at Activision’s upcoming NY.  Neil Patrick Harris will reprise his role as Spider-Man in Activision’s  upcoming Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, which is currently being showcased at San Diego Comic-Con.  In the game, players traverse through four unique worlds from Spider-Man lore and take on the role of four distinctly different Spider-Men – Amazing, Ultimate, Noir and 2099 – which will be brought to life by Neil Patrick Harris along with Josh Keaton, Christopher Daniel Barnes and Dan Gilvezan, respectively.

Movies: Production Round-Up Week of 6.25.10

EMCLAPB

Since it’s officially “Summer Blockbuster’ season, let’s start out by taking a look at what’s already in the theaters before we take a look at what’s currently in production.

Top five movies at the box office right now are:

1. Toy Story 3 – Tom Hanks, Tim Allen

2. Grown Ups – Adam Sandler, Salma Hayek, Kevin James

3. Knight and Day – Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Peter Sarsgaard

4. The Karate Kid – Jackie Chan, Jaden Smith, Taraji P. Henson

5. The A-Team – Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Sharlto Copley

Judging by these box office results, Tom Cruise and Jackie Chan are both getting the stuffing kicked out of them by a bunch of beloved Toys. Out of these five movies, I’ve seen Knight and Day, The Karate Kid and The A-Team. The Karate Kid reboot left me wondering why they bothered. Other than an absolutely powerhouse performance by Jaden Smith, and I firmly believe he is going to be a huge star for a long time to come, I found the reboot to be tedious and without the storytelling power of the original. I like Jackie Chan, but have to be honest and say I found him to be dull and lifeless in this movie.  On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoyed both the A-Team and Knight and Day. Finding both movies to be satisfying action adventures to while away a hot summer afternoon with.

Now, onto the in production news.

The Smurfs – First Photo!

Posted by   on June 18, 2010

in Movie News,Movies

While I was never a fan of the Smurfs, the film, which doesn’t open until August of next year, has put together a terrific cast that includes Neil Patrick Harris, Hank Azaria [as Gargamel, no less], Jayma Mays, Katy Perry, Alan Cumming, Anton Yelchin and Sofia Vergara – to name but a few. I’m intrigued by that cast.

Here’s a look at how the Smurfs look when they pop up in Times Square.

TELEVISION NEWS: Neil Patrick Harris hosts Emmys

Posted by   on July 6, 2009

I love Neil Patrick Harris, it’s amazing really, he went from being Doogie Houser, to obscurity and all of a sudden a few years ago he bounces back into the public spotlight. That’s called endurance people.  Fresh from two successful hosting gigs, NPH is set to take on the Emmy Awards. According to our blog partner TV.com “Harris has the hosting bug, and that’s perfectly fine with us as he’s damn good at it. Earlier this year, he hosted The 63rd Annual Tony Awards and The 7th Annual TV Land Awards, both to positive reviews, and also delivered a memorable segment at CBS’ upfronts in which he illustrated the "Bro Code." Now it looks as though he’s getting ready for his biggest hosting challenge yet — the Emmys.”  Check out the full story here.
