2009 Independent Spirit Awards

RYAN: I love the Spirit Awards for having the audacity to host their show the night before the Oscars. CAROLINE: I love them for giving me something to do the night before the big night. RYAN: They’re always uber casual in comparison. The stars drop the F-bomb, wear jeans – the men anyway – and ..

FIRED UP!

RYAN: I’m really sorry you couldn’t attend the press screening for “Fired Up!” with me because there were several times it made me laugh and I know we would have been laughing together. CAROLINE: Obviously it’s a dumb February movie, but it does look kind of funny. I’m sure I would have chuckled along with ..

THE CLASS

CAROLINE: After hearing all the hype about how good this French movie “The Class” is, I decided to take myself to see it. It was, after all, nominated for Best Foreign Film at the Oscars. RYAN: All I’ve heard from everyone who’s seen it is how great it is. CAROLINE: Me too! I figured at ..

REVOLUTIONARY ROAD

CAROLINE: I have waited for months for you to see “Revolutionary Road” and I just can’t take it anymore. I have to come to terms with the fact that you’re not gonna see it. Hence we’re reviewing it now. Or at least, I am. RYAN: I really regret that I still haven’t motivated to see ..

UNDER THE SEA 3D

RYAN: Seeing “Under the Sea 3D” at the IMAX theater is something I will never forget. CAROLINE: It’s a G-rated Discovery Channel-type movie, which is honestly more like a TV show because it’s only 40 minutes long. But the 3D IMAX element makes it so much more. RYAN: The 3D technology is so incredible nowadays ..

FRIDAY THE 13TH

RYAN: The new remake of “Friday the 13th” is very appropriately coming out on Friday the 13th. CAROLINE: Well, really they couldn’t do it any other way, could they? But seriously… must they remake every horror movie from the ’70s and ’80s? RYAN: I get it in the sense that they want to update it ..

THE INTERNATIONAL

RYAN: New in theaters today we have “The International” starring your boyfriend, Clive Owen. CAROLINE: He is so dreamy. And I’m here to say this is the first great movie of 2009. RYAN: It’s a really smart film that has some fantastic action scenes. You definitely have to pay attention though because it moves quickly. ..

CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC

RYAN: We both love a good chick flick, but I think I may have loved “Confessions of a Shopaholic” more than you. CAROLINE: If you’re using the word “love,” then you definitely did. It’s cute, but it’s not all that. RYAN: I thought it was fab! What didn’t you like? CAROLINE: Some of the timing ..

THE PINK PANTHER 2

CAROLINE: There’s a new sequel in town – “The Pink Panther 2,” starring Steve Martin. I saw the first one, but didn’t get to go to this screening with you. How was it? RYAN: As I recall, you enjoyed the first one more than I did. CAROLINE: “Enjoyed” is a strong word. Let’s just say ..

HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU

RYAN: I really liked “He’s Just Not That Into You,” which stars a plethora of Hollywood A-listers. CAROLINE: Since we had high hopes for this movie, I am pleased to report that it didn’t disappoint. And while it’s certainly not a perfect movie, it has some really great scenes and some out-and-out hilarious moments. I ..
