Bootyology Trailer Investigates The Booty Boys' Disappearance In New Musical Mockumentary
Image
Check out an exclusive trailer for the musical mockumentary Bootyology, which explores the relationship between AI and popular music. Bootyology is a hilarious and raunchy parody that features interviews with former crew members and famous fans. The Booty Boys make a comeback after disappearing for years and must rediscover their place in the music industry.

Screen Rant is excited to exclusively present a new trailer for the musical mockumentary Bootyology. The movie follows the classic mockumentary style but focuses on the documentary crew's journey more than the subjects. The documentary crew's goal is to explore the relationship between artificial intelligence and popular music. However, their journey takes an unexpected turn when they accidentally uncover a mystery surrounding the disappearance of the infamous rap duo, The Booty Boys.

Interviews with former crew members Queen Bootytifah, Bootytron 9000, and The Professor, along with famous fans including Brian Austin Green, reveal even more in this hilarious and raunchy parody.

‘Lying and Stealing’ VOD Review
Stars: Theo James, Emily Ratajkowski, Fred Melamed, Frank Gallegos, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Aris Alvarado, Isiah Whitlock Jr. | Written by Matt Aselton, Adam Nagata | Directed by Matt Aselton

If there’s one genre I love as much as horror it’s heist movies, in particular the kind of quirky, independent, often direct to DVD movies. Over the past few years there have been some great indie-comedy heist movies: films like Flypaper, How to Rob a Bank and The Maiden Heist – all of which I’d easily consider my favourites of the genre (Flypaper would even make my all-time favourite films list too).

And what do they have in common?

Well they all successfully balance quirky, offbeat comedy with traditional “heist-film” storytelling. They also all feature a cool and charismatic cast. And surprisingly Lying and Stealing follows suit, whilst also feeling very much like the more “glamorous” more-romantic crime caper films of the 60s.

"Every time they would come to set they would like get together and sing show tunes," Bledel said of Struthers and Torres. "It was such a raucous [time] on set every day they were there, so I have to appreciate them."

Head Case: Starz TV Show Cancelled; No Season Four
Head Case revolves around a therapist who works with celebrities in Los Angeles. The performers sometimes have to deal with big professional disappointments, like when their TV shows are cancelled. Unfortunately, the actors on the Starz series now have firsthand knowledge of how that feels.

Alexandra Wentworth stars as Dr. Elizabeth Goode, an unapologetically frank therapist. Her unconventional methods have made her the "It" counselor in Hollywood and her practice has thrived. Regular performers on the series also include Steve Landesberg, Michelle Arthur, Candace Dean Brown, Rob Benedict, and Aris Alvarado.

The Starz series debuted in April of 2007 as 10-minute vignettes and evolved into half-hour episodes. Head Case became a showcase for performers who wanted to play themselves and get some "tough love" onscreen. Those that have been "helped" include Andy Dick, Greg Grunberg, Jeff Probst, Tori Spelling, Tom Sizemore, Jason Lewis, Sean...

Kickin' It Old Skool
Alexander Calvert
This review was written for the theatrical release of "Kickin' It Old Skool."NEW YORK -- Apparently determined to exploit the full comic potential of white boys attempting hip-hop, Jamie Kennedy ("Malibu's Most Wanted") shows up in this high-concept comedy about a 12-year-old boy who lapses into a coma in 1985, only to wake up a grown man 20 years later. Released on Friday without being press screened as part of the pre-"Spider-Man 3" picture dump, "Kickin' It Old Skool" fails to live up to even the feeble potential of its premise.

The young Justin Schumacher (Alexander Calvert) falls into his decades-long slumber after hitting his head while attempting a particularly dangerous break-dancing move during a school competition. During the next 20 years, his perpetually battling parents (Christopher McDonald, Debra Jo Rupp) exhaust their financial resources trying to keep up with his medical bills.

When the now-adult Justin (Kennedy) regains consciousness after hearing a snippet of a vintage pop tune, he finds himself -- like Tom Hanks in "Big" and myriad other cinematic variations -- a boy trapped in a grown man's body, with an '80s sensibility in a 21st century world to boot.

Attempting to win a large sum of money for his parents by winning a modern hip-hop dancing competition, he reunites his old multiracial crew, composed of henpecked husband and would-be inventor Darnell (Miguel A. Nunez Jr.); geeky office worker Aki (Bobby Lee); and overweight Hector (Aris Alvarado). Along the way, he reunites with childhood sweetheart Jen (Maria Menounos), now engaged to his old nemesis (Michael Rosenbaum).

While the film dutifully evokes a variety of '80s cultural artifacts (Garbage Pail Kids, "Flashdance", Beta tapes, etc.) and features cameos from such celebrity figures from the era as David Hasselhoff and Emmanuel Lewis, it doesn't really have much fun with the contrast between then and now. And Kennedy's character seems less a grown-up kid than simply, to quote the offensive word oft recited in the film, retarded.

There are a few decent lines -- Justin complains of having missed out on, among other things, "Gremlins 2" and "Ghostbusters 2" -- but most of the gags, such as his being mistaken for a pedophile while being friendly to a kid in a toy store, are tasteless without being particularly funny. And far too much of the film's overlong 107-minute running time is consumed by endless hip-hop dancing routines.

Clearly still attempting to follow in the footsteps of Jim Carrey ("Son of the Mask" is among his credits), Kennedy will need to find better material than this to put him on the film comedy A-list.
