Make no mistake: It's women who come out on top in Minx's Battle of the Sexes, which plays out in various ways across Season 2, Episode 5, "A Stately Pleasure Dome Decree."
With Joyce (Ophelia Lovibond) and Doug (Jake Johnson) heading to Las Vegas to woo international buyers, Bottom Dollar's employees turn their attention to one of the biggest cultural moments of the 1970s: the tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, dubbed the "Battle of the Sexes" by promoters. When the male models call King's talent into question — "I could return that serve with my hands tied behind my back," one says — Shelly (Lennon Parham) challenges them to prove it. In that moment, Minx makes (likely) history with the first televised penis-tennis match, in which Dustin (Chris Riggi) shoves his junk into the bottom of a tennis racket and stands opposite Shelly on the chalk-lined court.

Adult World
Stars: Emma Roberts, Evan Peters, John Cusack, Armando Riesco, Shannon Woodward, Chris Riggi, Scott Coffey, Darin Scott, Reed Birney, Catherine Lloyd Burns | Written by Andy Cochran | Directed by Scott Coffey
Helmed by actor-turned-director Scott Coffey, who many may recognise from 80s films such as Some Kind of Wonderful and Space Camp, Adult World is another in a long-line of American indie dramas – you know the type: the ones that mix witty dialogue and a hip soundtracks in the hopes of creating something loftier than the rest. This particular example follows Amy (Roberts), a naive college graduate who believes she’s destined to be a great poet, who begrudgingly accepts a job at a sex shop while she pursues a mentorship with her idol, reclusive writer Rat Billings (Cusack).

Twilight parody trailer: Twiharder (image: John Gearries and Tanya Zoeller in Twiharder) [See previous post: "Twilight Parody vs. Lionsgate and Summit: $500 Million Lawsuit."] Say what you will about the productions values found in (or missing from) the Twiharder clip below, but you must admit that in the first scene leading lady Tanya Zoeller does a really good imitation of Kristen Stewart’s voice and mannerisms (e.g., lip-biting). And I gotta admit that I found kinda kinky-funny watching Christopher Sean’s use of his abs to stop the bleeding on the forehead of Zoeller’s Stella Pond. Edward Cullen parodist John Gearries, for his part, does a pretty good imitation of John Gilbert in His Glorious Night, repeating "I love you" ad nauseam. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly’s Singin’ in the Rain, by the way, had Kelly parodying John Gilbert in that early talkie. Now, why didn’t anyone try to stop them? Well, a key reason is that the...

Without a doubt, Vampires Suck is a sign of the end times, a piece of crap that barely qualifies as a film.

Matt Lanter as Edward Sullen in Vampires Suck Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables Remains on Top: Weak Weekend at Box Office Early non-official estimates had Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer‘s Twilight Saga spoof Vampires Suck running neck and neck with Sylvester Stallone‘s The Expendables, but that proved to be inaccurate. At no. 2, Vampires Suck drew $12.2m (vs. $16.5m for The Expendables), totaling $18.56m after five days, according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo. The film’s per-theater average was a none-too-exciting $3,774 at 3,223 locations. Starring Jenn Proske (as Kristen Stewart‘s human), Matt Lanter (as Robert Pattinson‘s vampire), and Chris Riggi (as Taylor Lautner‘s werewolf), Vampires Suck has one advantage over The Expendables: its low cost. After five days out, the Regency Enterprises/20th Century Fox comedy has nearly matched its $20m budget. Note: Vampires Suck no. 2 position is iffy, as the Julia Roberts...

Vampires Suck movie delivered funny Twilight Saga spoofs & more. 20th Century Fox released their new spoof/comedy flick "Vampires Suck" into theaters this weekend. I just got back from seeing it,and I thought it was pretty funny. Some of the jokes were lame,so I can see how the top critics gave it some pretty negative reviews. However it wasn't entirely bad as it did deliver some pretty funny spoofs for the "Twilight Saga" movies. It stars: Matt Lanter, Emily Brobst, Jenn Proske, Chris Riggi, Krystal Mayo, Crista Flanagan, Ken Jeong, Arielle Kebbel,and Devon Kelly. "Vampires Suck" movie revolved around character Becca (Jenn Proske), which was a spoof on the Twilight Saga Bella character. She eventually meets Jacob,then Edward,but his name is Edward Sullen instead of Cullen. Becca and Edward go through the same scenes as the Twilight movies accept they have a little spoofy twist to them.

Sylvester Stallone, Giselle Itié, The Expendables (top); werewolf pack in Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer‘s Vampires Suck Sylvester Stallone‘s violent actioner The Expendables was the top movie at the North American box office on Friday, according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo. Early non-official estimates had the Twilight Saga spoof Vampires Suck as the top film. Featuring Dolph Lundgren, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, The Expendables took in $4.95m, down a whopping 63% from a week ago. Yet, Stallone’s throwback to the bloody ’80s managed to pass the $50m milestone. Total to date: $53.3m. Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer‘s Vampires Suck scored $4.42m in second place.

Vampires Suck
Starring Jenn Proske, Matt Lanter, and Chris Riggi
Directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer
Rated PG-13
First, the good news: Vampires Suck is not as bad as 2008's astonishingly wretched spoof, Disaster Movie, from the worst directors with major studio support, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer.
Now the bad news: Disaster Movie is one of the absolute worst films ever made. Without question, it's the bottom of the barrel among Friedberg-Seltzer productions, and that's quite an accomplishment. Seriously, thank yourself repeatedly for having the good sense to not see Disaster Movie.
This does not mean Vampires Suck is a film you should rush out to see. On the contrary, none of these flicks - and Seltzer and Friedberg began directing the Fox spoofs, originally led by the halfway decent Scary Movie, with 2006's Date Movie - are worth your time. Nor were they apparently worth the time...

I laughed out loud exactly one time in Vampires Suck, in a scene where the vampire Edward is hovering over his sleeping love Becca and she farts loudly in his face. I’m not proud to have found that funny but at least I can report that Vampires Suck is not a completely laugh-free comedy. Vampires Suck is from Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the same hacks who unleashed Disaster Movie, Date Movie and Meet The Spartans, a trio of spoofs so witless and lame that if they had one laugh-out-loud moment between the three of them, I missed it. This time they’ve set their sites on the Twilight trilogy, a series I haven’t seen so not only were my expectations low in terms of laughs, but I fully expected many of the gags to go over my head. The best thing I can say about Vampires Suck...

Vampires Suck, no really, Vampires Suck is the title of the latest Hollywood parody to come kicking and screaming out of the studio. While I am actually a fan of vampire flicks, and despite the fact as a rule I can’t stand these parody movies, this one has been itching to get made for quite some time.
Parodying, yup, you guessed it, the Twilight series, Vampires Suck stars Matt Lanter, Jenn Proske, Chris Riggi and Ken Jeong. The film is directed by the dynamic duo of parody films, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer.
Taking some “classic” scenes from The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the film makes complete mincemeat out of the story and is worthy of a watch by anyone who’s more than a little tired of the popular tween franchise.

Passionate members of Team Jacob, meet Chris Riggi, the 24-year-old actor who will channel Taylor Lautner to play wolf pack member Jacob "White" in the upcoming Twilight spoof, Vampires Suck. Riggi, who you may remember as Lily and Rufus's long-lost son on Gossip Girl, knows he's taking a chance by poking fun at T-Laut, telling Hollywood Life that Twihards will either love or hate his role. Either way, Riggi probably knows almost as much about Taylor as hard-core Forks fans. “I watched the movies over and over again every day for three months,” he said. “I had a picture of Taylor in...

Two fun new items for the upcoming Twilight Saga parody Vampires Suck have been released online. The parody, written by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, attempts to over-exaggerate Stephenie Meyer's worldwide phenomenon, in what some are sure to consider the funniest movie of the year.
The new poster — complete with a great "Some Sagas Just Won't Die" tagline — shows Matt Lanter (Edward), Jenn Proske (Becca), and Chris Riggi (Jacob) flanked by three Nomad vampires and a comical Lady Gaga knock-off. Edward is sporting a "Team Jacob" T-shirt, while Jacob repays the favor by donning "Team Edward." Becca — looking as morose as ever — stands in the middle of both supernatural creatures, holding a clove of garlic instead of the saga's iconic red apple. Also present is Edward's perfectly coiffed hair, standing at least 6 inches above his head. Robert Pattinson would be proud.
