Atomic Popcorn is pleased to invite you all to the upcoming Warner Bros. Pictures film GOING THE DISTANCE, which will open on Friday, September 3rd. Make sure you grab a date and show up early for this one!

Just in case you don’t scour the internet for trailers and news daily like I do, the synopsis is below for you!

Synopsis:

Erin’s (Drew Barrymore) wry wit and unfiltered frankness charm newly single Garrett (Justin Long) over beer, bar trivia and breakfast the next morning.  Their chemistry sparks a full-fledged summer fling, but neither expects it to last once Erin heads home to San Francisco and Garrett stays behind for his job in New York City.  But when six weeks of romping through the city inadvertently become meaningful, neither is sure they want it to end.  And while Garrett’s friends, Box (Jason Sudeikis) and Dan (Charlie Day), joke about his pre-flight calorie-cutting and his full-time relationship with his cell phone, they don’t like losing their best drinking buddy to yet another rocky romance.  At the same time, Erin’s high-strung, overprotective married sister, Corrine (Christina Applegate), wants to keep Erin from heading down an all-too-familiar road.

But despite the opposite coasts, the nay-saying friends and family, and a few unexpected temptations, the couple just might have found something like love, and with the help of a lot of texting, sexting and late-night phone calls, they might actually go the distance.

Academy Award®-nominated documentary filmmaker Nanette Burstein (“On the Ropes”) makes her feature film directorial debut with “Going the Distance.”  The film is written by Geoff LaTulippe and stars Golden Globe Award winner Drew Barrymore (“Grey Gardens”), Justin Long (“He’s Just Not That Into You”), Charlie Day (TV’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”), Jason Sudeikis (TV’s “Saturday Night Live”), Jim Gaffigan (“17 Again”) and Golden Globe Award nominee Christina Applegate (TV’s “Samantha Who?” and “Jesse”).

The film is produced by Adam Shankman (“17 Again”), Jennifer Gibgot (“The Last Song”) and Garrett Grant (“Hairspray”).  Dave Neustadter, Richard Brener and Michael Disco serve as executive producers.

Slowly but surely my childhood continues to die with the sequel of the surprise 2007 Twentieth Century Fox hit, Alvin and the Chipmunks with their ‘Squeakquel’. This time around, Alvin, Simon and Theodore are not alone in their tiny world with the arrival of the Chipettes who are voiced by Christina Applegate, Anna Faris and Amy Poehler.

In the sequel, David Seville (Jason Lee) sends Alvin, Simon, and Theodore off to school, saying “it’s good for them.” Little did he know, the Chipmunks feel like “Chipmunks Out of Water” because of all the (human) kids around. Meanwhile, Ian Hawke (David Cross (after the loss of the Chipmunks dealt him a serious blow) is freed from jail and searches the world for animals who can sing and dance. He happens upon the Chipettes and cannot wait to make them famous and get revenge on the Chipmunks.

Watch the trailer below and thank the lord they’re not soul-crushingly dressed odd just like the teaser poster of the first movie, or you can cuddle up to your diamond-filled chipette dolls in horror if you don’t like this:

In a random turn of events, the ABC show Samatha Who? starring Christina Applegate is getting the plug pulled. After being all but confirmed to come back for yet another season, ABC got rid of the comedy due to pure rating numbers. Due to ratings and budget problems with keeping the show afloat, those deciding factors lead into this scrapping. Other things like moving its time slot from one day to another brought down the amount of audience it was able to rake in.

Samantha wonders who would cancel her show

ABC has already picked up quite a few shows for it’s lineup, even renewing some brand new ones such as the Nathan Fillion starring series, Castle that was picked up for a second season a couple of days ago. At the moment though, Christina will not be completely out of work (of course not), as she is rumored to be in the upcoming dramedy Everything Is Going To Be Just Fine. Despite that, unfortunately for all of those who contributed to the show, the ginormous amount of shows ABC has on the rack (10 to be exact) will quickly fill up Samantha Who’s time slot.
