Honest Trailers and The Hobbit Save My Butt!
Busy, busy week! My day job as a mild-mannered reporter has me running around this week, so luckily the fine people at Honest Trailers got around to doing The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. And they pretty much nail it.
Man, that movie. I tells ya. I love the Lord of the Rings as much as the next geek, and I mostly liked The Hobbit trilogy, but that last film was a real slog. Ah well, at least we have these funny Internet videos to help us stick it to’em!

I’m Just Gonna Make This Patton Oswalt Week
Comedian Patton Oswalt made my List of Six this week of my favorite stand-up comedians, and that just so happens to coincide with Patton’s appearance on Screen Junkies talking about his Dream Sequel to Unbreakable. So I’ve decided to share the video and make this an unofficial Patton Oswalt Week!
I don’t know if I’ve ever played the Dream Sequel game. I know a few movies that should have sequels, but I don’t think I’ve ever planned out any of them in my mind. It sounds like an awesome game. And I trust Patton Oswalt’s taste in geeky ideas. This was a fun video, especially since I’m a huge Unbreakable fan. That movie is awesome.

The Honesty of The LEGO Movie is Hard to Admit
Fortunately, the good people at Screen Junkies are willing to look beyond the sheer awesomeness of The LEGO Movie and reveal what it’s really about.
Sigh, that was funny. That was a damn good video. But I won’t stop loving The LEGO Movie, I won’t! I want kids to get into LEGOs. By all means, buy your children LEGOs! Let them all in love with a quality movie like this and then buy them all the LEGOs they could ever dream of getting! The world will be a better place for it.

Guardians of the Galaxy is Still Awesome!
Honest Trailers hits Guardians of the Galaxy today, and they do their best to make fun of the film, but it is still an awesome flick!
So nice try, Screen Junkies! But that movie is untouchable!
Finally, Something That Isn’t Star Wars!
Although to be honest, I’m not sure why Honest Trailers isn’t doing Star Wars right now. Or have they already done those films? Either way, here’s the Screen Junkies‘ take on Dawn of the Planet of the Apes!
I like the new Apes franchise. The movies are well-made and Andy Serkis is a total star. Solid work all around!
