Spare change

Although Jason Bateman was fantastic in Arrested Development, he's never really reached the same level in his film career. Possibly because he plays the same character in everything he does, which by the looks of it, is his actual personality. Still, while the plot for the Change Up sounds seriously stinky (Freaky Friday, Vice Versa, etc), hopefully these two will actually turn it into a watcheable film, again, while Ryan Reynolds was good in Van Wilder he's never really chosen a film since then that hasn't been pretty badly panned. Even Dane Cook has had funnier roles, and that's saying something.

Anyway, it's written by the same guys who did The Hangover, so it can't be that bad. Except that they're also the guys that wrote The Hangover 2. Tough call. Here we've also got an exclusive UK clip from the films as well as the actual trailer below that. What a lovely, media rich story this has become.
