Matrix 4 & 5? Maybe according to Keanu

Keanu Reeves has started rumours that we could be seeing Matrix 4 & 5 and that they could be in 3D.  If this happens i hope the two films explain how reloaded and revolutions didn't exist and is a loop hole in the Matrix which we was fulled into spending money to see.  Lets see if we see Neo again as Keanu needs another big hit.

Just Go With It Movie Trailer Official (HD)

Coming to cinemas February the new comedy from Adam Sandler with Jennifer Aniston. Looks better than Grown Ups at least.

The Town Movie review


Based on Chuch Hogan's novel Prince of thieves, Ben Affleck Directs, co writes and stars in this American Crime Drama.  Ben Affleck plays Doug McRay who with his three friends James "Jem" Coughlin (Jeremy Renner), Albert "Gloansy" Magloan (Slaine), and Desmond "Dez" Elden (Owen Burke), do robberies for "Fergie" Colm (the late Pete Postlethwaite) a local florist at Charlstown.On the first robbery at the beginning of the film they rob a bank and take the bank manager Claire Keesey (Rebecca Hall) hostage.  Doug after the robbery keeps an eye on Claire to see if she remembers anything that could identify the four and becomes attached to her against "Jem's" wishes.  Hence a similar trend of movies where Doug wants out but Fergie wont allow it.  The bank robberies in the film are nicely done and the costume they chose like the nuns in the poster takes you back to point break and the ex presidents. The tension between Doug and Jem with the later being a loose cannon and is willing to do anything to stay out of jail is obvious from the start where its Jem's decision to take Claire hostage against the others wishes.  The FBI agent always one step behind but trying to pin something on the four is Adam Frawley (Jon Hamm).  The film is nicely paced and the acting by Affleck and Renner is top notch.  From start to finish you don't know how this film is gonna turn out.  

Paul Preview, Trailer and Poster

The new film by Simon Pegg and Nick Frost is called Paul.  Paul is an alien voiced by none other than Seth Rogan.  Simon Pegg and Nick Frost play two comic geeks who are driving across America when they find Paul at Area 51.  The trailer looks funny and should be a blast knowing Peggs and Frosts previous work.

Going the distance Review.

Step aside Adam Sandler as Drew Barrymore has a new love interest on film and their chemistry on camera together tops Sandlers outings with Drew.  Justin Long is the man who crosses all the box's for Drew Barrymore in this enjoyable romantic comedy. Justin plays Garett a music manager who never properly commits to relationships and after the first scene of the movie finds himself single again.  Drew plays Erin a wannabe news reporter trying to get her career back on track after dropping everything for a guy.  The two bump into each other over a arcade machine and they never look back.  Erin is leaving in six weeks and wants nothing too serious which Garett is well chuffed to hear.  Cue 6 weeks and they just cant walk away from each other so cue the long distance relationship and constant texting which leads one of Garetts funny friends Box (Jason Sudeikis) grabbing the phone of him and hitting it with a golf club at the driving range.  Garetts getting advice from Box and his hilarious room mate Dan (Charlie Dan)  while Erin is getting advice from her sister Corrine (Christina Applegate).  The film has a good feel to it from the start and when i thought it was gonna get predictable it proved me wrong and went into another direction.  Well worth the watch and you feel the chemistry that Drew and Justin have on screen.  Just look out for a hilarious table sex scene which left me laughing out loud in enjoyment.

Top 7 saw traps (spoiler alert)

So Saw 3d(7) is out on dvd soon.  We are gonna run down our top 7 traps rather than moments as all the ending would take up the first 7 really.
7/ the mouth trap. the one trap we have seen across the most of the films.  always makes you test your jaw when you imagine the pain it must cause.
6/ i suppose what youd call the break up trap.  2 lovers on either side with their own saws and the woman in the love triangle hanging above.  one has to die. and the added notion of this trap being seen in like a shop window with a busy high street.
5/ the face trap from saw 2.  key to it is hidden behind the guys eye but surely all you can stare at is the nails thats gonna impale you when the time runs out.
4/ the drowning box.  water filling up and for this one there supposedly no way out.  but self sacrifice can get you out of traps!
3/ the trap that should have been easy if just everyone worked together. have to put your hands in the holes to fill up the machine with blood.

2/ the glass trap.  this would be my number one as the thought of glass against my wrists is just...well i don't like. the fact you'd die slowly as well unlike the other traps.
1/ has to be the trap that started it all.  and the fact jigsaw is alive all along just proves that this series started strong and in my opinion finished strong.


Ricky Gervais to make cameo in US version of The Office

David Brent is back! Well for an episode anyway.  Ricky Gervais who is an executive producer on The Office,now in its seventh series, will reprise his charachter David Brent for one episode.  Cant wait hope he brings his guitar!   

Dinner for Schmucks review


Dinner for Schmucks sees Paul Rudd playing Tim Conrad a guy trying to move up in his company to impress his girlfriend.  Tim tries to take the initiative to impress his boss's buy making a sale of special novelty lamps with wealthy Swiss businessman Martin Mueller (David Walliams).  impressed by his Keene's his boss invites him for a dinner for winners which he realises is more a dinner for schmucks where Tim needs to find a "special" guest to go to this dinner.  So he bumps into Barry Speck (steve carell) a dead mouse collector who likes to make art out of dead mice. Que Tim trying to be nice to Barry however extreme and annoying he is to get him to go to the dinner.  Cue normal lose of girlfriend along the way this movie isn't laugh out loud hilarious but its easy to watch.   Zach Galifianakis also plays a part of Therman Murch who stole Barrys wife and claims to know mind control.  Not  Paul Rudds best work really but Steve Carell is prob the only cast member worth watching as Barry.  Rent it out to give it a go but don't rush into buying it first.

Batman: The Dark Night Rises.

The new Batman cast members have been announced.  Batman again will be played by Christian Bale.  No Riddler as first thought and no Robin btw i just thought this picture was cool.  Instead we have Anne Hathaway (the princess diaries)  as the Catwoman and Tom Hardy (inception) playing Bane.  Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine reprise there roles.The film will be released on July 20, 2012.  And Nolan has gone against filming it in 3D as didn't want people to be distracted from the story line.

Jaydid Humour Comedy Heroes #2 Seann William Scott



Every now and then we at Jaydid like to take a moment to salute the great heroes of comedy.  And we believe Seann William Scott deserves a shout out.  Of course Sean came to world attention back in 1999 as Steve Stiffler in American Pie.  A part which he will always be known as and has never been matched even though plenty of straight to DVD movies have tried to portray a Stiffler.  Shortly after American Pie Seann was cast as the cool E.L in Road Trip.  Could almost be the same character as Steve Stiffler.  Staring parts in Dude wheres my car, Bullet Proof Monk as well as 2 more American Pie movies Cemented Seann to a House hold name.  Even Cameos where he is memorable in Old School and Jay and Silent Bob strikes back shows what a great comedic actor Seann really is.  Role Models with Paul Rudd is a great movie and again Seann as Anson Wheeler is another great character that he portrays.  If you haven't seen any of the films named here please do.  We are looking forward to more films of Seanns to come out but do hope he reprices his role of Steve Stiffler one day.  I know he has done other films but the named ones is his finest work i believe.  So Seann we salute you and are a hero to us.

The Switch Movie Review.


Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman star in this comedy.  The film starts 7 years earlier where Jennifer plays Kassie Larson who decides she wants to move forward with her life and have a baby.  Jason's plays Wally, Kassie's best friend.  After an early turrets guy scene which was annoying me a little i didn't give this film much hope.  But on i watched.  Wally doesn't agree with Kassie's decision to go it alone and chose a sperm doner.  Wally even asks whats wrong with his sperm which Kassie said would be strange.  So Kassie chooses Roland (played by Patrick Wilson) who is everything that Wally isn't.  Hes outgoing, enjoys life and is athletic.  On the eve of inserting the um sperm Wally gets drunk and Kassie's pregnancy party and accidental spills the sperm cup.  So Wally replaces it with his own.  waking up next day he doesn't recall any of the previous nights events.  Fast forward 7 years and we find Kassie returning to New York with her son Sebastian (played by Thomas Robinson).  Becomes soon apparent to Wally that Sebastian is just like his and he slowly puts 2 and 2 together.  The Switch is an enjoyable heart filled comedy and Thomas Robinson does a great job at making you relate to a kid who's been brought up without a father figure in his life.  Definitely a return to form for Jennifer Aniston after the terrible The Bounty Hunter.  Jason Bateman seems to be on a role of good films and he does a 5 star turn here.  Co stars Juliette Lewis and Jeff Goldlum are a nice touch as the main characters friends.  Give the switch a go and hopefully you want want to switch off til its over.
