Check Out The Cool Trailer For ‘ParaNorman’ (Get It?)

Halloween is the season for creepy stop-motion animated children’s movies. And so today we have a new trailer for ParaNorman, from the studio that brought you Coraline. I’m not much of an animation buff but this looks pretty cool, and it also has one of the best titles I’ve seen in a while (I’m a sucker for puns). The trailer doesn’t have much information in the way of plot, but it does have a lot of creepy images and it looks cool. And check out this voice cast: Casey Affleck, John Goodman, Jeff Garlin, Anna Kendrick, Leslie Mann, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and Elaine Stritch. I know most of those names!

ParaNorman is scheduled for an August, 2012 release, so expect lots more information to come between now and then. Below you can also see a (kind of bland) poster for the movie. (The Playlist)

The Safety Of Jeff Garlin And Mary Lynn Rajskub Is No Longer Guaranteed

No, it’s not because Jeff Garlin and Mary Lynn Rajskub have become so incredibly famous that fans might mob them at a Starbucks or something. It’s because they joined the internet meme turned movie Safety Not Guaranteed.

Also starring Aubrey Plaza and Kristen Bell, Safety Not Guaranteed is the kinda true story of a man looking for a partner to time travel with, and the three magazine staffers sent to investigate his classified ad. The film is directed by Colin Trevorrow, from a script by Derek Connolly. No word on who Rajskub and Garlin will play, though if I had to take a guess… a socially awkward computer worker and a fat guy who gets yelled at by his wife. Just going with my gut.

Safety Not Guaranteed began production in April. (Hollywood Reporter)

Look, Listen, And Feel: ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ Season 8 Teaser

Sorry, HBO yanked the video.i

Here’s our first good look at the havoc Larry David wreaks on the upcoming season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” In Season 8, the gang relocates to New York City because there’s really no place else like it. The city is dirty, it’s honest, and as Ana Gasteyer points out, it has ambient noise. All HUGE selling points this season. I’m a huge “Curb” fan but I have friends who cannot stand it. Whenever we get to arguing about the merits of the show, their chief criticism is always “not enough ambient noise.” Well, you can suck on an exhaust pipe now, haters. Season 8 will have ambient noise out the ass.
