Now There’s a Movie Worth Reading!

Did you know that they’re making trailers for books now?  See for yourself:

I admit that this look great.  Pretty good effects for a book!  I can’t wait to see it…or read it…or whatever it is they want me to do.  I just hope that they didn’t ruin all of the best parts in the trailer.

Chevy Chase Day 2009

chevyandjonYour pals at Critical End! would like to wish a super happy birthday to Sir Chevy Chase (we’ve knighted him in our own minds).  Can you believe the man is 66 today?!  Most people don’t know that Chevy didn’t become the household name that he is today until around his 32 birthday when he first started getting noticed on some show called NBC’s Saturday Night.  I wonder what ever happened to that forgotten gem?
Speaking of great moments in Chevy history, Ryan and I have listed our five all-time favorite Chevy films below.  In celebration of this special day, why not take a few hours to get reacquainted with one of the greatest comedians of all time?ChevyChaseold

Logan’s Top Five Chevy Picks

And finally…news hit the web yesterday about a rumored fifth Vacation film from New Line Cinema.  However, I couldn’t find a single website that had a source on this, so I’ve decided to hold off reporting the “details” for now.  Just be aware that this could possibly exist outside of my dreams within the next few years.  More info to come.

Happy Chevy Chase Day, kids.

Kiefer Sutherland One Headbutt Away From a Free Small Soda

kiefer

Uh oh. He's got that look in his eyes that can only mean one thing: MURDER (or perhaps "taco night").

You know, there’s a reason I stopped inviting Kiefer Sutherland to my pool parties. Sure, he always brought some killer homemade guacamole and a great collection of Devo records, but he was always too quick to headbutt all of my guests.

And now it seems that the ol’ Kiefernator is at it again: New York City police are currently investigating an incident where, and I swear I’m not making this up, Sutherland apparently headbutted fashion designer Jack McCollough at an upscale party. The reason? McCollough bumped into Brooke Shields and refused to apologize. A spokesperson for Shields had the following to say about the incident:

“Nothing happened to her. Jack did nothing inappropriate. It’s not clear what caused Keifer to do what he did.”

Oh, I’ll tell you what caused him to do what he did: HE’S KIEFER SUTHERLAND. This is what he does, people! Haven’t the New York City police ever seen a Kiefer film, or as I like to call them, a Kiefer Klassic? Listen folks, I know that if I ever meet Sutherland I’m not going to ask him to sign my black and white 8×10 of him in Young Guns II, I’m going to ask him to freakin’ headbutt it…with his head.

The full story can be found here.

I Enjoy Long Walks On the Beach, Thai Food, and Wainy Days

Love The State/Stella’s David Wain? Live in or around New York City? Trying to get a role in one of those hot NYC shows but the Sex in the City casting director said you weren’t “hip” enough? (That’s one casting director who will rue the day they turned down Logan Lee, esq.)

Then has David Wain got a part for you! Granted, it’s as an extra, and you apparently need to be a goofy “out there party type”, but this is your chance to chat with Wain and tell him how much you enjoyed that one scene in Wet Hot American Summer. Yeah, you know the one……classic. Anyway, follow the link if you’re interested and make sure you let us know all about the experience.

No clue what Wainy Days is? Start getting excited about the new season by watching this:
