Wet & Wild With Will

I have no idea what this Running Wilde show is, but I guess it stars Will Arnett - that's Mr. Amy Poehler to you! - and in the most recent episode this happened. So let's just bask in this and not tax our brains with the other things which we do not understand. (click to embiggen; pics via) This is more than enough.

Happy 40, Will Arnett.

--- Cary > Will -- Hey Will Smith, didn't you already mar the name Hitch with your horrible rom-com? Why you gotta go remaking the real Hitch's movies now? Yeah apparently Will Smith thinks he can play a Cary Grant part, and wants to remake Suspicion. Granted, Suspicion's not one of Hitch's top-tier efforts, but it's still very fine. Who's gonna replace Joan Fontaine, Eva Mendes (shudder)?

--- Dogs Delay - The remake of Straw Dogs starring James Marsden and Alexander Skarsgard isn't getting released until September 2011.

--- Big Screen Whedon - I'll leave the cries of, "No, don't work with her again!" to the crueler of y'all out there (that's not to say I don't disagree), but according to Eliza Dushku she and Joss have been talking about doing a movie together.

--- Brit's The Shit - Apparently Spike Jonze is making a television show for British television starring David Cross and Will Arnett called The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. That ought to be right in front of me this instant, I reckon. This instant!

--- Last Ladies - Head over to StinkyLulu for the Supporting Actress Smackdown of 2009's nominated women.

--- Back To Dick - I haven't seen Dick Tracy in many many years but Aaron's write up at Electronic Cerebrectomy of rewatching it brought back a lot of memories. We're the same age pretty much so we remember it pretty much the same way. I remember collecting the McDonalds cups to the movie for all the characters, and trading cards... it was a big deal that Summer.
--- Darren Does Angie - In yet another awesome decision on her part, Angelina Jolie's maybe teaming up with Darren Aronofsky next for a project called Serena, based off a recent book about a lady that drives her husband mad with logging work and then plots to kill his baby-by-another-lady. That sounds delightful.

--- Viper Vamp - BD has got a bunch of images of the creatures in Clash of the Titans, including a pretty nitfy shot-by-shot decontruction of the way Medusa's face transforms in the film. I suppose it's spoilery, if you wanna wait for the movie to see it.

Why couldn't they have made this version of Bonnie & Clyde rather than that "ignite a feud between Hillary Duff and Faye Dunaway" one? I wanna see this movie! (pic via) Although Will Arnett's outfit looks more Han Solo than Clyde Barrow.

This is all for the new issue of Vanity Fair about the great comedians of today. Thankfully they included the best one of all - here's my beloved Anna Faris as Trixie of The Honeymooners with Bill Hader, Jason Bateman, and Leslie Mann filling out the other roles:

Will Arnett's Sperm Gets The Job Done

.
Amy Poehler's preggers, y'all!

Wouldn't it have made more sense for Amy Poehler and Will Arnett to have revealed this info last week, when their burgeoning oven-bun could've made for a perfect PR push for Poehler's comedy Baby Mama?

The movie obviously didn't need the extra push, having opened at number one - I didn't get out to see it (yet); I became scared away by negative reviews. Anybody catch it? I don't care if it sucked or not; I'm gleeful that a female-led comedy made decent money. Bring 'em on, movie studios! I want Spring Breakdown already!

Perhaps they're thinking of their second weekend numbers. Gotta keep the movie fresh on people's minds!

That's a load of cynical shit I just typed. Will & Amy would never market their stomach-nugget for professional gain! Congrats to the couple!

After the recent escapade o' gruesomeness here at MNPP, I feel the need for things to be a bit lighter today... it'll especially help my semi- hangover to stay away from the gaping-neck-wounds, at least temporarily, as well... anyway, here's some funny, via JJ - when asked what she and hubby Will Arnett do for Christmas, Amy Poehler told OK:

“We do what we always do — We rent a private jet and go up and then we call all our single friends and we say ‘ha ha, how does it feel to be alone at Christmas and then we dump jet fuel into the ocean — but only where there are endangered species.”

Walking her Benji-looking dog,
wearing a wife-beater and tan aviators;
She is the size of an acorn.
Weird that my last sighting was her hubby, Will Arnett;
I guess they must live in my work-neighborhood.

Crossing the street and talking on his cell phone; wearing jeans, a blue v-neck t-shirt, and a really lovely dark green rain jacket. He wasn't as tall as I expected and was scarecrow-skinny. Hot, though.

Quote of the Day

Amy Poehler on her husband, Will Arnett, and his gay following:

"Believe me, the highest compliment as a woman is to have your husband wolf-whistled at in the West Village. Oh, he’s adorable! I really scored. I don’t know what-the-f I did right, but I did something right in my past life to get a handsome, funny hunk of meat and put a ring on that."
