The To-Do List

Opens Friday, Aug 16, 2013 Synopsis: A high-school valedictorian makes a list of all of the sexual acts she wants to try before college, and seeks out the right partners to help expedite her sex education in this semiautobiographical comedy from writer/director Maggie Carey. The year is 1993. Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) is the brainy teen who's always home studying while her friends are out partying. Now, as graduation looms, she starts to realize just how much fun she's been missing out on. Of course Brandy's grades are impressive, but how is a girl who's barely even kissed a guy supposed to handle the freedom of college life? In order to get a leg up, Brandy compiles a list of all of the erotic extracurricular activities she's missed out on and attempts to cross them off one by one. When the task proves more demanding than the previously chaste teen had anticipated, she rounds up a crew of her closest friends to help undertake some hilariously unconventional college prep. Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Rachel Bilson, and Andy Samberg co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Sarah Steele, Scott Porter, Rachel Bilson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Andy Samberg, Donald Glover, Connie Britton, Clark Gregg Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2

Opens Friday, Sep 27, 2013 Synopsis: Picking up precisely where its hit predecessor left off Sony Pictures Animation's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 finds Flint Lockwood (voice of Bill Hader) invited to join The Live Corp Company, and use his gift for invention for the good of mankind. Just as young Flint prepares to go to work for his hero Chester V (voice of Will Forte), however, the young genius learns that his water-to-food machine is not only still functional, but it's also began cross-breeding animals with food. Now, in order to prevent a growing army of "foodimals" from escaping isolation on an island and wrecking havoc on the mainland, Flint and his loyal group of friends will have to do battle with such delicious, but deadly, hybrids as the ferocious tacodiles, slithering apple pie-thons, and vine-swinging shrimpanzees. Saving the world from these rampaging monstrosities won't be easy, but if anyone is up to the task, it's Flint and company. Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn takes the reins for this sequel also featuring vocal contributions by Anna Faris, James Caan, Kristen Schaal, Tery Crews, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris and Benjamin Bratt. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Will Forte, Kristen Schaal, Terry Crews, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris, Benjamin Bratt Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
