 New Boston Movie Furry Vengeance Now In Theaters

furry_vengeance_poster.jpg

In the newest Boston movie to be released, Furry Vengeance has all the kid-friendly, skunk-spraying humor you could ask for.  It was shot in a couple towns around the Massachusetts area including Topsfield, Danvers and Ipswich and partly in Boston.  It's the typical story of man vs. nature, kinda.  Brendan Fraser's character continually gets out-witted by woodland creatures trying to protect their environment from the actor's construction project.

Judging by it's lack of real success at the box office this past opening weekend, you may not have long to see it in theaters!  It reportedly took in roughly six millions dollars... yikes.  That stinks!  Brendan Fraser looks so depressed in the poster, must have had to sit through so many screenings of his own movie!

If you want to check out the trailer you can visit the movie's official site, www.furryvengeance-movie.com

Casting For Wicked Summah

Well what is there to really be said about Wicked Summah?  Already you're either for it or against it.  Personally I am dying to find out what beantown-bred hooligans they end up casting for the show.  What show???  Wicked Summah!  Haven't you heard?  It could be you!!!

Cape-Cod-Map.jpg

The same casting genius that put Snooki and The Situation together is working magic on Cape Cod this summer, with a Massachusetts-style Jersey Shore show!  Doron Ofir has been casting Massholes from all over the Bay State on the Internet.  They are looking for audition footage of why you should be having a wicked summah.  Think you have what it takes, or know someone who does?  Check out the official casting website and keep your eyes peeled for cameras on the cape!

 Blockbuster Boston Movies Coming This Summer

knight_and_day_poster.jpgWhen June rolls around, Boston will be all over the big screen.  I can't wait!  June 25th is the release date for two Boston Movies going head-to-head for tops at the box office. 

Knight & Day starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz is the front-runner to grab the top spot in my mind.  I believe it is the biggest-budgeted movie to ever be filmed in Massachusetts... thank you tax credit!  From the Jacob Wirth Restaraunt in the Theatre District to the roof of a speeding car on top of the Zakim Bridge, the movie filmed all over town.  Knight & Day looks action packed with over-the-top humor.  

The Adam Sandler comedy Grown-Ups opens the same weekend.  The movie's cast is comprised of a who's who in the world of post-snl success.  Tina Fey, Chris Rock, Tim Meadows, Norm MacDonald, Maya Rudolph, David Spade and Rob Schnieder.  Add to that the comedic stylings of Salma Hayek, Steve Buscemi and Kevin James and you have a hilarious "coming of age" story.  GrownUps325.jpg

And if you want to see hometown heartthrob Ben Affleck, you'll have to wait until the last weekend of summer, but it should be worth it.  His sophomore effort at directing comes in the form of The Town based on Prince of Thieves by Chuck Hogan.  I personally can't wait to see it considering I got to see Ben himself in action during the movie's filming last fall! Should really be a wicked Boston movie summer! 

Trailers available by clicking through the movie posters!
