In the interests of full disclosure, I had a headline and screencap about Colin Farrell’s combover all set to go when I saw Jennifer Aniston in her underpants deepthroating a banana. Realizing I’m not allergic to cash money, I posted that instead. In any case, Warner Brothers just released the trailer for their July comedy Horrible Bosses — GEE, I WONDER WHAT THAT’S ABOUT! SQUIBBETY BLABBETY DOO! It comes from King of Kong (and, uh.. Four Christmases…) director Seth Gordon, and stars Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, and Jason Bateman as three guys plotting the murder of their horrible bosses, played by Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, and Colin Farrell’s combover. I don’t know if there’s a contest in Hollywood to see who can come up with the most boring, linear premise, but I do enjoy the actors involved. Maybe not enough to deepthroat a banana, but they seem nice.
I’d like to know who thought moviegoers would relate to guys whose “horrible bosses” include a super-hot, horny dentist and a guy who makes you drink expensive scotch at eight in the morning. Has anyone involved in the making of this ever actually had a real job? Hire a consultant if you have to. And if they quit their jobs because things like this were happening, I’d like a list of their past employers. For my research. In conclusion, THESE VILLAINS SUCK. NEEDS MORE BILLY MITCHELL.
