Jason Bateman Doesn’t Think “Teen Wolf” Was His Finest Moment

“You get to skip a lot of school … “Teen Wolf” was bad then, it’s bad today. If you’re lucky enough to stick around for a long time, you’re going to have some things in your past that are kind of fun to look at.”

Jason Bateman talking to Mo Rocca during “CBS Sunday Morning” about the pros and cons of being a child star. Cute. Though for the record, I have to say that “Teen Wolf” was not, is not, and never will be bad. [NY Post]

Shun, Shag, Or Marry: The Men Of “Horrible Bosses”

Over the past few weeks, Jennifer Aniston has (unwittingly, I think) hogged the “Horrible Bosses” publicity spotlight. Almost all of the coverage of the movie has focused on her—how she may or may not have a topless scene in the movie, how she’s breaking out of America’s Sweetheart mode to play a sex-crazed dentist, how she blew a kiss to Justin Theroux while getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Enough with Jennifer. I think it’s high time we took a better look at the three male stars of “Horrible Bosses.” After the jump, who we would shun, shag, and marry.

Are You Excited To See “Horrible Bosses”?


I gotta admit, I’m pretty psyched for “Horrible Bosses” to hit theaters, especially after watching this Red Band trailer (NSFW!). For starters, it’ll be refreshing to see Jennifer Aniston stepping outside of her usual “unlucky in love” rom-com schtick, playing a vicious dentist who sexually harasses adorable Charlie Day. Second, I am excited to see Kevin Spacey play a smarmy a-hole again — he did it so well in “Swimming With Sharks.” Plus, Charlie Day, Jason Bateman, and Jason Sudeikis, while looking a little too alike to tell them apart, make for a delightful trio of unlikely “heroes.” I know foul-mouthed comedy isn’t exactly new, but I’m still amped for this one to open on July 8.

Jason Bateman Gets Buried In The Sand

Happy Memorial Day! Behold, the latest cover of Entertainment Weekly. It is basically everything I want on this holiday—the beach and Jason Bateman. EW has dubbed Jason the official “Boy of Summer 2011″ since he has two movies coming out in rapid succession—”Horrible Bosses” and “The Change-Up,” co-starring Ryan Gosling. Personally, I love that Jason agreed to get buried in the sand for this shoot. But man do I wish EW had used their alternate cover, in the inset, as the main one. So cute. Plus, it makes me want a sandcastle hat. [EW] Keep reading »

What’s Up With All The Sperm Donation Movies?


Last night, I saw a trailer for “The Switch,” which comes out August 20th. The rom-com is about two good friends, played by Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman. Jennifer has decided to have a baby on her own and throws a party to celebrate her upcoming insemination. At the party, not only is Jennifer’s sperm donor there, but Jason’s character gets so drunk that, while in the bathroom, he pours out the sperm donor’s, uh, donation and replaces it with his own. This is the third big movie to come out about sperm donation in the past year. It also was once titled “The Baster,” which ewww, is not an image any of us needed. Keep reading »

Jason Bateman Dances In Drag For Gum


How many nights has the last thought in your head before going to sleep been “Man, I wish I could see Jason Bateman in drag doing a striptease?” Plenty, I’m sure. Well, your late-night fantasies have been answered! As part of a promotional campaign for Orbit gum, Batmen does his best “Showgirls” impression and proves that the gum doesn’t only clean dirty mouths, but dirty souls as well. Keep reading »

Jason Bateman And Dustin Hoffman Smooch At A B-Ball Game

At last night’s LA Lakers game, Dustin Hoffman planted one on Jason Bateman. Perhaps they were hamming it up for the jumbotron. Perhaps they realized a paparazzi photographer had his lens aimed at them and decided to do something shocking. Or maybe I’m a cynic and they’re actually in love. [Los Angeles, 6/3/10] Keep reading »

Who Wears The Beard Best?

Enough with photos in tabloid magazines of celebrity women in matching dresses with captions asking, “Who wore it better?” Do we really care which starlet-of-the-hour looks more bangin’ in the Dior cocktail dress? Or, which accessories complement the Armani gown better? No! Bring on the men, we say. With three of our favorite hotties sporting new beards, this is a “Who wears it better?” situation we actually care to ponder. So who gets your vote? Jon, Jason, or George? Keep reading »

Shun, Shag, Or Marry: The Men Of “Couples Retreat”

“Couples Retreat,” the flick about four couples who receive couples therapy on a paradise vacation, killed it at the box office this weekend, pulling in $35.3 million by Sunday night, which is pretty impressive since critics have been slamming it. My brother even claims it was worse than “Joe Versus the Volcano,” which is the film to which we compare all bad movies. But neither success nor criticism can distract us from the most important question of all, which is, of course: Which cast members would we shun, shag, or marry? I cursed the day that I would have to shun any of these fine gentlemen, but, unfortunately, journalism is a cutthroat vocation and sometimes you’ve got to break some eggs to make breakfast.
