If You Like ______, Then You Should Watch _______ - Vol #2: Meet The Parents/The Heartbreak Kid

If You Like _______, Then You Should Watch _____ is a new column that will be appearing here on CCD.NYC weekly. Whenever people try recommending a movie to someone they instantly go with the line: "It's like ____ meets ____". It is the easiest way to convince someone to watch a new film... appeal to their basic sense of past movies they have seen and might have liked. It usually works too, since people like to compare & contrast things they are going to do with things they have already done. So in order to broaden your horizons and open you to some new films, we will use that model to help you discover some celluloid gold.

Today's Pick: If You Like Meet The Parents, Then You Should Watch The Heartbreak Kid!

SNL Throwback Of The Week #9, 4/10/2010

I am a huge Saturday Night Live fan. One of my earliest memories was of my parents watching SNL every Saturday while we were tucked in our bedrooms, and sometimes being allowed to watch for a bit. The show has gone through its ups and downs over its 35 year run, but the fact that it is still on the air after 35 years is a testament to the staying power of the show. Lorne Michaels is a genius at finding and developing young, comedic talent. SNL has produced a bevy of stars over the years, from Eddie Murphy to Tina Fey. The show is doing well again thanks to Ms. Fey and the rest of the team, but I love watching clips from the old shows. Every Saturday I will give you guys one of my favorites. This weeks clip features Will Ferell in the role of gameshow host Alex Trebek. Celebrity Jeopardy has been one of the all time funniest skits to ever air on SNL. It always features 3 celebrity contestants who are so dumb it is unbearable... unbearable, but hysterical. This episode features Ben Stiller as Tom Cruise, Jimmy Fallon as Adam Sandler, and Darrell Hammond as Sean Connery. For fans of the skit, you all know how great Hammond/Connery can be. If you never seen the skit... well then you better clear an hour of your schedule because you will be on youtube after this watching all the Celebrity Jeopardy skits. Live from my living room... It's Saturday Night!!!!
