So DirecTV can't provide the Pac-12 Network, but we do get an HBO free preview every so often. The lovely wife had control of the remote the other night we stumbled upon "The Change-Up," starring Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. It's a buddy comedy with a "Parent Trap" twist, where a ladies' man (Reynolds) switches identities with his family man best pal (Bateman). Oh, it gets worse. ::)
Within five minutes or so we saw:
- Leslie Mann, after winking at the camera naked in slo-mo to the tune of Warrant's "Cherry Pie", is shown ****ting on the toilet - complete with splashing water sound effects - and complaining about "too much Tai Food"
- A pregnant (otherwise hot) blonde, entering Reynolds' apartment, wearing a fur coat. By this point he's assumed his married guy friend's identity, and this is supposedly the first sexual encounter in his new role. She disrobes, revealing undies, go-go boots -- and a pregnant belly well into its third trimester. His conscience keeps him from going through with it, much to the hottie's shock and chagrin. We learn that the pair met at a "single moms Lamaze class."
- CGI-esque special effects, depicting a toddler tossing a meat cleaver - with the coordination of Oddjob from "Goldfinger" - at the Bateman character before said knife sticks to the wall. These cartoon-inspired hijinks ensue when Bateman - now with the mind of the bachelor - haphazzardly brings his twin sons to the kitchen for their 3 a.m. feeding. They're old enough to walk and look about 18 months old, but we still need an excuse to see a fridge full of Leslie Mann's breast milk.
****ing Hollywood. HBO and Showtime continue to show these ****ty, worthless movies on a continuous loop. This is just one of a seemingly endless list of examples. I know there's more, so feel free to grow this list. Consider these PSA's for you and your valuable TV time.
