New ‘Save the Date’ Trailer with Lizzy Caplan and Alison Brie Arrives

Posted on November 8, 2012

Two of our favorite actresses working today are Lizzy Caplan and Alison Brie. So, to have them both in one movie is quite the accomplishment and makes us very interested in said movie.

The movie in question is the indie romantic comedy Save the Date. In case you’re not familiar, the movie is based on the graphic novels written by Jeffrey Brown and reportedly was very well received at the Sundance Film Festival last year.

You can check the movie out online today via IFC Films Video on Demand, SundanceNow, iTunes, Amazon Streaming, Google Play, Xbox Zune and PS3 PlayStation Unlimited. It will also hit theaters on December 14th.

Check out the trailer after the break. We love it. Let us know what you think.

‘Spartacus’ Returns to Starz In January and We’ve Got Video to Prove It

Posted on November 6, 2012

For some of us it’s been difficult to continue on with the Starz original series Spartacus after the death of its original star Andy Whitfield. We spent a lot of time with him and got to know him pretty well so when he passed away and a new actor took over the role, we didn’t exactly embrace him or the new show.

Fortunately, Liam McIntyre has proven to be a capable Spartacus and the show has continued on to great success. Now, Starz has let out details regarding when the final chapter of the saga, known as Spartacus: War of the Dammed, is going to premiere.

Here’s the full scoop from the network. We’ve also got a trailer for the new season after the break.

Beverly Hills, CA – November 6, 2012 – Today STARZ announced the premiere date for the final installment of their highly successful Spartacus franchise, “Spartacus: War of the Damned,” which will return on Friday, January 25, 2013 at 9pm ET/PT, exclusively on STARZ.

Latest Nexus 7 Ad Puts an Aquarium On Your Roof

Posted on November 5, 2012

Even though tablets from Apple are still the most popular, many people prefer buying a device from someone else that runs the Android OS. One very popular alternative to the iPad that does just that is Google’s own Nexus 7.

It’s getting closer to the holidays so that means we’re going to be seeing more ads trying to convince us to buy one product or another. A prime example of this is the latsst Nexus 7 commercial from Google.

In it Google continues the theme of using the tablet in your daily life to be creative and have fun with friends and family. It starts off with a girl listening to the Life Aquatic soundtrack, which then leads to a group of friends creating a life sized aquarium to call their own.

Check it out after the break. If you want an iPad alternative, the Nexus 7 isn’t a bad way to go. Pick one up here.
