We haven’t had a Videogum Movie Club in weeks because let’s face it, recent new movies have been more like recent new snoozies, am I right? (And this weekend is no different. SPOILER ALERT: Remember Me is about cough eleven.) But Videogum Movie Club will return in 2010, don’t doubt it. So, what are some movies we are all looking forward to seeing as a family? Let’s get a list going!

Hot Tub Time Machine
I’m looking at this list: http://www.film-releases.com/film-release-schedule-2010.php
And frankly, HTTM, Kick-Ass, and Iron Man 2 are the only films I’m really looking forward to over the next few months. :/ I’ll probably end up seeing Clash of the Titans, McGruber, and Date Night too.
Amelia on DVD. That’s going to be awesome, right?!
I was at the ol Blockbuster last night and saw rows and rows of “Amelia”s and could think only of you! Your total domination of not just the interwebs but also our very minds HAS BEGUN!
If I’ve already seen it, do I need to be served with a gag order to avoid spoiling the end? (TWSS) (YUCK!)
I saw a sneak preview of Hot Tub Time Machine and it was pretty good… But it did have a little too much cheap Gross-Out Humor for my taste.
Movie Writer #1: Hey, is vomit funny?
Movie Writer #2: Ah, no duh. But one scene of somebody vomiting is never enough, it’s like Lays Brand Potato Chips.
Movie Writer #1: So, what you’re saying is, that we need to put about 3 vomit scenes in the movie?
Movie Writer #2: At least. And if someone could vomit ON something or someone else, that would be even better.
Movie Writer #1: Stop drilling, you hit oil!
Twilight: Eclipse, DUH!
Not even for videogum.
I know New Moon was already a VMC (and i’m sure EVERYBODY participated!) but a rewatch of the DVD can double as a WMOAT! multi-tasking!
I was going to say Twilight: Eclipse, but then I realized I don’t even need to. You had me at “Twi”
Diary of a Wimpy Kid, y’all! (I am only half joking about this)
Agreed. I want to be matchers!
I saw Alice in Wonderland last weekend and it felt afterward like I paid Tim Burton $15 to fart in my mouth. So not that.
Aww. I liked it. But yes, it was Tim Burton being Tim Burton…but that’s what i paid for?
The Jabberwocky addition was just the most blatant, boring example of “we need an easy narrative arc, for the stupids” ever.
BUT I loved the Moat. I was actually disapointed it was not darker…
and yes, i was like *SPOILER ALERT* Keep walking up those stairs girl, we know what happens when you get to top.
If anything, it was Tim Burton not being Tim Burton ENOUGH.
exactly!
It’s what he does. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1929453
Too much Johnny Depp.
Kick Ass! Kick Ass!
Also, The Last Airbender.
YES! I CAN’T WAIT! I’M SO EXCITED! DON’T FUCK IT UP M. NIGHT! OOOOH!! *giddy school girl noises that slowly fade as I pass out from glee*
Seriously. If M. Night Whateverhisnameis fucks up this movie there will be INTERNET HELL TO PAY!
Calm down, kids. We’re talking about the man who made The Happening. Nothing to worry about.
The Runaways, I guess, even though seeing that movie will probably result in
MACGRUBER! And Date Night.
The Noah Baumbach movie. He really gets white people.
Let’s just get PUMPT for next year. Hugo Weaving was just cast as YOUR avatar in the Captain America movie.
I am pretty psyched for that! MISSter AMERica… My victory is inEVITABLE.
OMG u guys, Sex and the City 2!!!!~!!1!!! I can’t wait!!! I’m a CARRIE!!!
TEAM SAMANTHA
Actually, HILARIOUSLY ENOUGH, my brother is in Sex & The City 2, and so I will probably go see it in the theaters. If the shot wasn’t cut, he will be the lead cellist in the “Hunky Orchestra”.
None of the things I have just written are jokes.
So your brother is a hunky cellist? Is he otherwise an all-right dude or can he be Our Boyfriend?
Basically the story is this- one of his friends was originally supposed to be in the orchestra, originally conceived as a “young, hip orchestra” and later downgraded to “HUNKY MEN IN TUXES ORCHESTRA” because, ladies, am I right. This was a “dealbreaker” for my brother’s friend, on account of her vagina, and so she was asked to suggest other young, hip musicians, provided they be male. She suggested my brother, and he decided to go along with it for the money. When he got to the tux fitting, they upgraded him from “orchestra member” to “head of hunky cello section”, which in my mind at least proves he is the most attractive cellist in New York.
He is actually an all-right dude but I am MAD at him right now because he is in Switzerland and his Japanese ex-girlfriend who only speaks Japanese and German is at his apartment and I got a frantic email in nominal English from her this morning about “water is leaking under the floor from the bathroom” and so now my Friday night is going to be going to his apartment and trying to figure out what’s going on. THANKS, BRO-SEPH.
We could just do a Netflix movie club. I suggest Twilight: New Moon.
You know, I’ve been wanting to watch those RED RIDING HOOD movies that IFC is running on On Demand, but every night when i get home i just haven’t felt like watching a trilogy of movies about British Murder.
I second the vote for Runaways. Kristen Stewart biting her lip forever
Yes yes yes yes yes. And for the Kristen/Dakota haters, there’s a scene where Kim Fowley throws dog feces at them. So win-win.
I don’t hate Dakota but I very much dislike Kristen. This sounds awesome.
I think Kristen Stewart is pretty. I want to call her the K-Stew. What do you think?
How to Train Your Dragon (TWSS?)
HOT
TUB
TIME
MACHINE
And most definitely Babies.
BABIES! I still laugh and smile and then lol when i see that effing trailer.
“Step Up 3D” This is the first I’ve even heard of this. Is this real life?
But as a serious suggestion: Toy Story 3
Oh, it is real. They filmed by my job for a while.
I know a lot of monster’s probably don’t have access to small arthouses or other venues for limited releases, but I think it would be great if we could have two options every once in a while. Since I just got my pretentious-film-snob license renewed, I would much rather see the new Gaspar Noe* as a family than Transformers 14: Remeber Megan Fox?.
I realize that a family viewing of a Gaspar Noe film sounds a bit awkward and maybe a little creepy, but we’re a SPECIAL family, dammit!
I hear you, but along with the fact that not everybody has access to arthouses, even for the ones that do, the release schedules are all over the map for the smaller movies. Like in my town (a southern state capital), we are still in the queue to get stuff like A Single Man, The Messenger, etc.
YEAH, BUT honestly, you’re ALBUM FUCKING sucked SO who GIVES a shit?
Or what about that stupid Jude Law movie about the health care industry? Repo Man?
I thought it was about aliens and speed and punk music.
Nobody’s made that joke yet, right? Does anyone know if Emilio Estevez is back for the sequel?
Yes, but in a bizarre twist, he’ll be playing Coach Bombay
hot tub time machine, iron man 2, toy story 3, scott pilgrim vs the world, nightmare on elm st 37…
Wait, is “Remember Me” a prequel to “Reign Over Me”?
I HOPE SO!
Iron Man 2 (obvs)
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (obvs)
Toy Story Three (eeeeeeeeeeee!)
Inception
Due Date
Tron Legacy
Toy Story 3
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
Predators
a bit premature (twss) but Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!
If ‘Remember Me’ is really about 7-11, I might be interested. It’ll kinda’ be like ‘Clerks,’ right?
I can’t believe no one has said Predators yet. It has Topher Grace in it. TOPHER GRACE! IN 3D!
Anyway, for more realz, Iron Man 2, Clash of the Titans, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, MacGruber (as long as Will Forte sings) and Get Him To the Greek (sorry, I am European, we still like Russell Brand)
Is it ok that i still like both of the Predators movies? Can I still sit at this table?
I plan on seeing Green Zone this weekend. Damon, Greengrass, and newly Oscar winning cinematographer Barry Ackroyd sounds like a winning combo for shaky, hand-held action!
Inception, Kick-Ass, Iron Man 2, The Green Hornet, Hippie Hippie Shake, Perrier’s Bounty, Magic Valley. I’ll probably see Jonah Hex at some point, too, because comic books. Also, Peacock, but it’s going straight to DVD for some reason. Yes, I love Cillian Murphy, what of it?!
yes to hippie hippie shake! if it actually gets released over here (also it has Chris O’Dowd from the IT Crowd) and Cillian Murphy is always fantastic
Um Gabe Our Family Wedding comes out today, the cinematic marvel of the century, such a fresh look on racial relations in a post-racial America (Ferrera)
Death at a Funeral (2010)!
Also, Clash of the Titans. Or as I like to call it, Release the Kraken (duh)
I love that line in the trailer
Whenever that part of the trailer comes up, I yell “LET’S GET KRAKEN!!”
and then I’m asked to leave. But it’s worth it.
I think my internet is broken, because I can’t see all the comments that should be on here suggesting ‘Season of the Witch.’?
Of course, I am writing to you from the Outback so it will cost me $2,700 to join you on the premiere date. But I figure, if Nicolas Cage (why is there no ‘h’ in his name, dammit? Does he think he’s too good for- oh…) can commit 110% to just wearing the heck out of that many artifical, individually-threaded hairs in his wig, then we kinda owe it to him to show some reciprocity on our ends, by flocking to the theatres to see his latest masterpiece… (More like masterHAIRpieceamirite???)

When I saw that it hadn’t been mentioned yet, I started to get all defensive, but then I was like, “No! This is supposed to be a community or something!”
So, without a hint of sarcasm, Repomen.
Man, Remember Me is soooo gonna make a GREAT WMOAT entry…….
I was going to suggest Repo Men, but that was before I realized it’s not a Kevin James comedy about how hilarious and frustrating it can be to be a Repo Man/Mall Cop.
I really thought there’d be a Shutter Island VMC, ah well.
the conversation begins and ends with INCEPTION. I would like to formally give it the Oscar right now if possible. Centuries from now it will be the film by which all 5D Holographic Film Experiences (C) will be judged.
Just watch the trailer and try not to cream your pants

TRON, featuring Academy Award Winner Jeff Bridges
but really I can only think about one movie, that I saw a trailer (excuse me, 3D TRAILER) during Alice In SnoreLand.
One Word: OWLS
