Flixclusive: First details of Seth McFarlane's Ted
An anonymous tipster late yesterday gave us the first details of the Seth McFarlane’s live action directorial debut Ted. Do you guys not remember it? It's the one about a guy who wishes, as a kid, that his teddy bear came to life. Now, he has to live life as an adult with a teddy bear as his best friend. We’ve covered it on the site twice before now. Do you even care we exist?! While I’ve never been the biggest fan of Family Guy past season three, and just about anything else this guy touches hasn’t been...oh, I don’t know...good, this is still a pretty decent concept. I’m kind of interested in seeing where the direction of the movie goes. I guess we’ll have to wait for the first trailer to hit. In the meantime, hit the break for the awesome, spoiler-tastic details. *The movie is shooting in Boston *Ted, the teddy bear, works at a convenience store *Ted has sex with a woman in the back room of the store, next to some Pepsi. Apparently, Pepsi is one of the movie's big sponsors. *Mila Kunis plays an ad exec *There are a few references to the 1980's Flash Gordon feature film. The actor who played Flash makes a cameo, and they also recreated at least one of the vehicles from the movie. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)6:00 PM on 06.18.2013 See the Way, Way Back early and freeWe got a chance to check out The Way, Way Back at Sundance and absolutely loved it. Comedy mixed with heart and feeling set it apart from a lot of the rest of the films out there. Mix in a stellar cast including Steve Ca...
1:00 PM on 06.18.2013 Trailer: Kick Ass 2A new zip-zap-zoom fancy trailer for the hyper-violent, hyper-curse-word nonsense sequel to Kick Ass has hit the webs. The trailer shows off more Jim Carrey funtimes while also teasing some detail bits about the ma...
8:00 AM on 06.14.2013 Trailer: R.I.P.D.I was won over by R.I.P.D. very easily because its lead character is named Nick (and of course it features of one my boos, Mary Louise Parker). Now if all movies could feature a guy named Nick forevermore, I'd be totally coo...
12:00 PM on 06.13.2013 Flix for Short: The Real World: This is the End EditionThis is the End is one of the funniest films of the year so far if you're a fan of Seth Rogen and his gang. Even if you're not, you're still going to find yourselves laughing. A good gauge of how funny This is the End is goi...
8:00 AM on 06.12.2013 Review: This is the EndI've been harsh toward This is the End from the very beginning. First batch of trailers painted the film as a "Hey look at [enter famous name here] acting wacky!" sort of comedy, but as the trailers rolled on and hinted at th...
9:00 AM on 06.07.2013 Review: The InternshipYou may have seen The Onion skewering of The Internship as a fantastic film for 2005. It's pretty funny, but the truth of the matter is this isn't a 2005 film. It isn't a 2013 film either. This is an 80s movie and it's d...
11:00 AM on 06.05.2013 Trailer: The FamilyIn Luc Besson's The Family, Robert DeNiro returns to one of his best forms - a mobster trying to stay out of trouble, and failing. The movie centers around DeNiro's character and his tough-as-nails family; his wife played by...
5:00 PM on 06.04.2013 Trailer: The To Do ListAhhh, the teenage sex comedy; so easy to get wrong and yet so good when it's right. Kind of like sex. Which I've had. With women. I mean my wife and only my wife. She reads this so lets make that perfectly clear. I should pr...
5:00 PM on 06.03.2013 Red Band Trailer: Kick-Ass 2The last trailer for Kick-Ass 2 left me very un-enthused for the film. It just didn't seem to have the same dark comedic streak that the first one had. With a new director and screenwriter that makes sense, but it just ...
10:00 AM on 06.03.2013 BFF Review: Black OutTwo things struck me when the opening credits of Black Out came on: 1) there was a lot of style and flash in a good way, and 2) the festival's digital copy was low res. As the text appeared, so did fuzzy squares and breaks in...
