Full disclosure: I missed the last 10 minutes of Vacation. Last night’s press screening started 20 minutes late, then began without any sound, which lead to a 10 minute delay to correct the technical difficulties. With an unbreakable engagement elsewhere, I had to sneak out right before the very last scene. So take this review with as many grains of salt as you’d like. If you think those final minutes might recontextualize everything that came before to transform a generally miserable comedy into a beacon of transcendent hilarity, so be it.

Can we call this a rebootquel?

By the hammer of Thor! As ‘Anchorman 2’ inches closer to its December 18 premiere, Paramount has released photos by the truck loads of all the hijinks to come – road trips, new suits and hairdos and … did someone say another newscaster brawl? Yup, that’s a trident. Brick has a trident!

'Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead' made it pretty clear from the title what the movie was going to be about. In the 1991 comedy, the five Crandell kids are left in the care of a strict elderly babysitter when their mom leaves for a two-month Australian vacation. When the mean old bat up and dies, they decide to not to relay the news to mom and instead live out their summer free from rules and
