Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson haven’t starred in a movie together since Wedding Crashers. The two definitely had some chemistry together hitting all the comedic notes at just the right time. So it was pretty exciting to hear that they would pair up for a second time in Shawn Levy‘s The Internship. The film will focus on two 40-something year olds who are out of a job and out of touch with the technological world. They try to navigate their way back into work by taking internships at Google and realize they may be out of their league.

Check out the first trailer for The Internship below.

Fans of the surprise horror movie hit Insidious, which cost $1.5 million to make and made $97 million at the box office, will be pleased to know that a sequel is in fact still on the way, and that an official release date has now been set. Better yet, everyone is coming back to make the movie.

FilmDistrict has set an August 30, 2013 release for the movie, which will be titled Insidious Chapter 2. James Wan returns to direct the movie, with stars Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Lin Shaye, and Ty Simpkins all set to reprise their roles. Original screenwriter Leigh Whannell also returns.

The creative team behind Insidious, Leigh Whannell and James Wan (from my home country Australia), has done it again in the horror genre with a new take on some traditional ghost stories and horror plot devices. With a solid plot, some convincing performances from a great cast, and fantastic lighting and camera work, Insidious stands up as not only a decent firm horror movie, but as a nightmare personified.

X-Men: First Class
Directed by Matthew Vaughn
Starring James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Kevin Bacon, Rose Byrne, Jennifer Lawrence, January Jones, Nicholas Hoult
Release Date: June 3, 2011

Wow. That’s the only word I could muster to describe my feelings for X-Men: First Class when the movie was over. The last movie to have that kind of effect on me was Inception.

The year is 1962. As relations between the United States and Russia become further strained over the nuclear arms race, another major plot is brewing. C.I.A. agent Moira MacTaggert (Rose Byrne) has discovered that the elusive Sebastian Shaw (Kevin Bacon) and his associate Emma Frost (January Jones) are bribing important military officials serving under President John F. Kennedy into forcing the nation into a confrontation with the Russians that could possibly lead to an all-out nuclear war. But Shaw and Frost are soon revealed to be powerful mutants, Shaw having the ability to harness any amount or level of energy and use it to his own advantage, and Frost the ability to change the form of her body into near-invulnerable diamonds and to protect her thoughts from the intrusion of telepaths. MacTaggert presents this revelation to her superiors, who not surprisingly don’t believe her, nor do they find mush satisfaction with the young agent’s idea of fighting fire with fire by bringing in someone who might be able to help the C.I.A. bring Shaw to justice — a recent Oxford graduate named Charles Xavier (James McAvoy). Xavier, or I should say Professor Xavier, has the power to not only read the thoughts of others, but to communicate with them and control their actions and perceptions through those thoughts. He’s also an idealist who agrees to assist the government in the hope that it will make the conditions safer for his fellow mutants to reveal themselves to the world, including his best friend and adopted sister Raven (Jennifer Lawrence), a shape-shifter who is wary of her natural blue and scaly appearance.
