Aww, why am I picking on little Post-Grad? This modest movie starring Rory Gilmore and Matt Saracen is completely minding its own business and is totally harmless, but still -- I keep seeing the commercials for it, and I can't helped but be irked by all the things whoever made Post-Grad (the person who directed Shark Tale? And the person who wrote a thing Demi Moore directed?) lifted from Reality Bites.

When you have the ability to purchase a robot duplicate and send it out in the world, why would you make it look exactly like you, except with a floppy, blonde toupée? Omar G. and Pablo G. -- the Flying Gallaga Bros. -- ask that very question while watching the trailer for Surrogates, Bruce Willis' new actioner about people staying in their apartments while sending robots to do the risky stuff, like shopping and driving and going to work. See vloggers Omar and Pablo dissect the logic of this world (via animated surrogates, of course) in the latest installment of Trailers Without Pity, and weigh the drawbacks/benefits of such a lifestyle.

By now the omnipresent District 9 buzz has undoubtedly reached you, and you're probably doubting that anything could be as good as people are saying this movie is. And I could sit here and illuminate the things that are wrong with it, but that would be futile -- because ten years from now this movie is going to be considered a classic, and rightfully so. It's a sci-fi movie that doesn't necessarily bust out of its genre roots, but it's far more Escape from New York than Independence Day, and I mean that as high praise. Escape from New York has a lot of flaws, but Escape from New York is also a great movie. So is District 9.

We were delighted to see that Hulu had a nice variety of John Hughes movie clips posted, so we thought we'd share some with you, today, in this time of mourning. Safe for work, unless you work somewhere where they have no souls. ...Or get uncomfortable when Judd Nelson describes teen sex in intimate detail. Or have a strict anti-Anthony Michael Hall policy. (There's a lot of AMH in these clips.)

As a general rule, the only thing I hate more than romantic comedies is talking animal movies. I think I've made that clear. But for some reason there will always be one of the latter every couple of years that has me enthralled from the marketing get-go, which somehow convinces me to fork over my hard-earned cash and sit down in a family-filled theater to watch something really, really dumb. Alvin and The Chipmunks was an example of this inexplicable phenomenon, and I fricking loved it. Loved it. And now it seems G-Force has filled my stupid talking animal movie excitement quota, because I really want to see it. Not that there aren't drawbacks: Penelope Cruz is involved and there's a fart joke in the trailer, but there actually seems to be a lot of good outweighing the bad in this movie.

In a world where prisons are overcrowded, and reality shows have gone too far, and men are made slaves for our amusement, and Michael C. Hall is extremely creepy... there are these two guys named Omar and Pablo who have a show where they talk about movie trailers. That show is called "Trailers Without Pity," and this week they're talking about the trailer for Gamer, starring Gerard Butler, Kyra Sedgwick and Michael C. Hall. In it, a kid is able to remote-control convict Butler through a kill-or-be-killed real-life video game, until Butler decides that he wants out to see his family. See what Omar and Pablo think of all this below, or click here!

Chris Columbus has given us a mixed bag. On the one hand, he did the first two Home Alone movies and the first two Harry Potters, and they were all pretty good. On the other hand, he also did Mrs. Doubtfire and Bicentennial Man. Shudder. Well, now he's channeling John Hughes for a teenage romp through the night after graduation, after a nerd declares his love for a hot chick, and the hot chick turns out to actually be kinda cool about it. Pablo and Omar Gallaga are skeptical of the whole affair, as evidenced by the latest installment of their vlog, "Trailers Without Pity." See what they have to say about the ILYBC trailer and Hayden Panettiere's cleavage below, or click here!

What do you think of Beth Cooper? Yeah, that's what we thought.

In the grand tradition of Jackass, from the guy who brought you Borat, it's Bruno! ...You know, if you like that sort of thing. "That sort of thing" being Sacha Baron Cohen pushing the buttons of real-life Americans, and discovering that we don't like having our buttons pushed. I, for one, can take it or leave it, but Omar and Pablo take it and loooove it! To celebrate the release of the Bruno trailer, the Gallaga brothers put on their finest mesh shirts to break down the comedy (and the words that take up valuable comedy space) for us. Check it out below, or watch it here!

Zach Galifianakis has been everywhere promoting The Hangover this week, and with upcoming roles in a prominent HBO hipster series (that actually looks good), the already confirmed Hangover 2 and seemingly endless casting announcements popping up about him every day, it seems he's on the precipice of mainstream comedy fame. And for good reason. Aside from Louis CK, he's probably the best stand-up comedian working today, and in honor of Hangover Friday, I thought I'd do a little round-up of some of his most popular work for those out there who may not know much of his stuff yet. Get to know Mr. Zatch Gaspafanasky (as comedy club announcers frequently used to refer to him) before he makes soda come out your nose at the movies this weekend. (And for all you pre-existing Zach fans reading this, enjoy the memory lane strollin' after the jump!) Headphones are recommended, though -- these contain language of an adult, albeit ridiculously immature, nature.

Making fun of movies like Confessions of a Shopaholic is admittedly pretty fish-in-a-barrel as far as making fun of movies goes, but still -- these things continue to be made and relentlessly advertised, and women continue to pay money to see them even though they're insulting in every way imaginable, and that's something I've never understood. I guess it's my pop culture blind spot, and there's clearly some kind of appeal these movies have that I just don't get. But no matter what that allure is, it doesn't negate the fact that movies like this get greenlit by a bunch of men sitting around agreeing that women are shallow and stupid enough to enjoy this crap, and that notion is then enforced by things like 27 Dresses and He's Just Not That Into You killing the box office almost every single time they're released, and I'm sitting here still confused. These movies are not just boring and harmless; they set us back. They make us stupider. They re-enforce gender roles. They're bad for everyone. And here are just a few of the many reasons why Confessions of a Shopaholic is no exception.
