Why 3D movies have become the real thing Sep 12, 2009
"Jim doesn't want you coming out going, 'That was a great time in the cinema. He wants you going, 'That was a great time on Pandora.' Avatar's producer, Jon Landau, thinks more people will see it in 2D than 3D but has a Katzenbergian belief in the revolution. The analogy I make is black and white to colour, he says. When talkies became possible, you saw a very quick migration to talkies. However, it was in the 1930s that you really started getting used to colour in movies, but it did not become...

Can Dad be trusted to take notes on curriculum night? Aug 18, 2009
Admittedly, I don t know you other than your writings, so I am probably wrong, but when I read your blog persona, I m always reminded of that scene in Terms of Endearment when Jack Nicholson s character takes Shirley McClain out to their first lunch and things are spinning out of control for her and it really upsets her and Jack asks Aurora you wouldn t happen to be any fun, would you. Not that you re Aurora, but it seems to me that you might have the tendency to let the little things you can t... (Atlanta Journal-Constitution -- Living)
Box Office Weekend: Apatow's Funny Peculiar Aug 3, 2009
" The final theatrical earnings for Virgin and Knocked Up (which he wrote and directed as well as producing) were about five times their opening-weekend gross; and Superbad, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Pineapple Express made about four times their openers. People saw these movies, told their friends they were funny and made them hits. The new movie will be hard pressed to duplicate that word-of-mouth salesmanship. For most audiences, Apatow's 2hr. 24min. attempt to encase a James L.... (Time.com)

Funny People: Uneasy Mix of Humor and Heart Jul 31, 2009
" George wants a last chance at human connection, in the person of Laura. And that's where Funny People spins off the rails. It's said that inside every comedian is the urge to play Hamlet. (Hey, Mel Gibson did it.) Well, inside Judd Apatow, he wishes, is a secret Jim Brooks. James L. Brooks is the sitcom titan (Mary Tyler Moore, Taxi, The Simpsons) who forged an Oscar-winning film career as the writer-director of comedy-dramas about attractive neurotics. The needy souls from Terms of... (Time.com)
Daniels gives heart to damaged souls Jul 27, 2009
Over the course of his three-decade career, Daniels has never shied away from playing the kind of damaged souls that other actors (and studio types) usually run scared from (see his philandering husband in his breakthrough film, "Terms of Endearment") ... After his career grew in the early '80s with memorable roles in "Terms of Endearment" and Woody Allen's "The Purple Rose of Cairo," Daniels learned that film acting on its own wouldn't be rewarding enough for him.

Comedy darkens, matching leaner times, outrage Apr 14, 2009
Instead, Apatow pursued realistic, warmhearted comedy in the tradition of "Terms of Endearment." This summer, he'll release his most dramatic film yet: "Funny People," in which Adam Sandler plays a standup with terminal cancer. "Step Brothers," starring Ferrell and John C. Reilly as middle-aged boys still living with their parents, took the comic standby of adolescent adulthood further than it had ever been taken. (San Francisco Chronicle -- Entertainment)
