If Patrick Warburton’s going to Hell, he’s taking a lot of viewers with him

March 2, 2009 /

Bullz-Eye was fortunate enough to score an opportunity to speak with Patrick Warburton on the occasion of his CBS series, “Rules of Engagement,” returning to its 9:30 timeslot within the network’s Monday night comedy line-up.

We did not, however, limit ourselves to discussing that particular show.

In addition to conversations about Warburton’s roles on “NewsRadio,” “The Venture Brothers,” in “Get Smart” and “The Emperor’s New Groove,” and, of course, as the title character of the live-action TV version of “The Tick,” we also asked him about his long-running role on “Family Guy” as Joe, the paraplegic cop whose wife, Bonnie, finally gave birth.

“You know, my mother actually thinks my soul is in peril for being on that show, and after I watched last Sunday’s episode, I thought, ‘Geez, maybe she’s right. Joe’s getting his diaper changed…and I am going to hell for being on this show.’ You know my rationalization is that it is just absurd, crazy humor, and…what the fuck. It is a deplorable show. It’s horrible.”

Well, it’s all a matter of opinion.

Heroes 3.18 – When Harriet Tubman Met Def Leppard

March 2, 2009 /

I’m not saying this was the best episode of the season, but it was definitely filled with some of the best dialogue of the season.

I can’t tell you the exact moment that I decided I liked every character on “Heroes,” but at least I can identify it for Claire’s new boy, Alex (though I like to think of him as Aqualad). It was when he looked at her and said, “You’re not Harriet Tubman, Claire, all right? And this isn’t the Underground Railroad. You’re just a high school girl, and you’re in over your head.” He’s probably a narc, but what can I tell you? You just don’t get many Harriet Tubman references nowadays; you’ve gotta respect them when they come along. Also, I actually laughed out loud when Alex wouldn’t even cop to having sex with Claire to save his own skin.

You know, I almost hate to admit it, but I actually kind of liked Hayden Panettiere’s performance this episode…probably because she actually played some semblance of a typical teenage girl for much of the time, particularly during the discussion with her mom about whether or not a divorce from HRG was forthcoming. Her mom had quite a few good lines during the course of the episode, too, including her observation about the van that’d been sitting outside their house for way too long (“No-one’s pool is that dirty”), but nothing topped the lustful shout-out to the glory of Def Leppard’s Rick Savage. Having the agent come in and almost but not quite find Alex wasn’t nearly as suspenseful as I think it was probably intended to be, though, nor was Claire and Alex’s great escape. And the underwater kiss…?

Okay, fine, it was actually kind of sweet. Happy?

Paul Rudd, Mac, and McDonalds dance contest

March 1, 2009 /

My guess is that few, if any of us, remember the movie “Mac and Me.” A movie staring an alien that is separated from his family, searches for them, evades the government and dances in a McDonald’s, all with the aid of a child in a wheelchair (think “ET” but without being able to ride a bike). A post on Filmdrunk shows a clip from “Conan” where Paul Rudd plays a scene from “Mac and Me” instead of one from his movie “Role Models.” It has apparently been a rolling joke on the show, with Paul Rudd going straight to this scene from “Mac and Me,” forgoing the promotion of the film in which he’s starring.

As a way to further jog your memory, here is a behind the scenes clip with the painted one himself, Ronald McDonald, who introduces the movie:

With all the shameless self-promotion done in the name of the golden arches, I’ve come up with a formula for “Mac and Me.” It goes something like this: Ronald McDonald + “Mac and Me” + McDonald’s dance party in “Mac and Me” = the greatest product placement movie in history.

Gives new meaning to the phrase Mac attack.

Sneak Peek: “Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince”

February 27, 2009 /

When Warner Bros. announced that they would be pushing the release of “Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince” from Fall 2008 to Summer 2009, many fans were understandably angry. After all, it’s not cool to hold back a finished film just because you hope to make more money – especially one as highly-anticipated as this. For some reason, though, that hasn’t stopped the “Harry Potter” marketing team from unleashing a constant stream of new clips and trailers, and their latest web featurette should definitely appease the masses until the first official trailer hits in a few months.

Though featurette is essentially just a series of interviews with the cast and crew discussing how unbelievably awesome the new movie is going to be, there are actually quite a lot of never-before-seen clips including a first look at Ron in Quidditch gear (a welcome sight considering that particular subplot that was axed from “Order of the Phoenix”), the Weasley Twins in their joke shop, and the infamous Love Potion hard at work. Put on your wizard’s hats, pull out your wands, and check out the video below.
