Today JOE has been feeling…manly.
Manly because we’ve heard the latest Toy Story 3 is a bit of a tear-jerker, with JOE writer Conor Hogan bravely admitting he sobbed like a little girl the whole time. See Conor, we told you that you shouldn’t have said anything. Either way, we’re preparing to check out the latest Pixar classic tonight, fully aware that at any moment the filmmakers may reduce us to wibbling wrecks. In preperation, we’ve been chewing tobacco, devouring steak and chopping lumber all day. Pixar – we’re ready.
Tonight’s Telly
Pick of the night: Community, 3e, 11.00pm.
If you still haven’t caught a chance to see possibly this year’s best new comedy, there’s no excuse. Chevy Chase is enjoying a mild career revival as one of the stars of the US sitcom, which stars Joel McHale and Derrick Comedy troupe member Donald Glover (YouTube them, they’re priceless). Community revolves around a group of mostly, mature students in a US community college, with Glover and Chase usually stealing the show every week.
Movie pick: Changing Lanes, More4, 9:00pm
Ben Affleck delivers a surprisingly nuanced drama-thriller alongside Samuel L. Jackson, which examines the implications of two strangers meeting in an emotionally charged setting, which the ramifications carrying over throughout the entire day. Affleck is an ambitious lawyer, Jackson a desperate father, who both become involved in an unfortunate car accident between one another. In the ensuing road-rage, a cold grudge between the two disparate individuals develops. Thrilling and thought-provoking matieral from both actors, we heartily recommend Changing Lanes if you’re staying in tonight.
