Review: The Muppets

I'm not quite old enough to have enjoyed The Muppet Show the first time around, so despite being a fan of Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal and all things Henson, I never really had Kermit and co as cultural touchstones growing up.

Like a dolphin in the Thames, gasps of joy soon turn into muted worried looks, as we watch the latest trailer for Gulliver's Travels.

Jason Segel and Paul Rudd are high

A video has surfaced of comedians Paul Rudd and Jason Segel, bored by their UK press junket for I Love You, Man, apparently stoned out of their minds. Uhh... hur-hur-hur. I said 'junk'.

Review: I Love You, Man

Just how likeable is Paul Rudd? Let's put it this way: I rate all my friends in units of Rudd. (That guy? He's a three-Rudder. Her? Half a Rudd. And so on.) I'm hard pushed thinking of another comedian that comes across as quite so effortlessly chummy on screen, which is why the concept of Paul Rudd trying to find a male best fr...
