BB 12/23/16

Good morning Phoenix! TGIF! Hope you’re all ready for the holidays, or ready for them to be over. *grins*
It’s time for a Friday Flicks. I have a new release holiday movie for you that is premiering today, and sounds hilarious. It’s called “Why Him?” and stars Bryan Cranston from Breaking Bad fame and James Franco, so it’s bound to be funny.
Plot:
Over the holidays, Ned (Bryan Cranston), an overprotective but loving dad and his family visit his daughter at Stanford, where he meets his biggest nightmare: her well-meaning but socially awkward Silicon Valley billionaire boyfriend, Laird (James Franco). The rivalry develops, and Ned's panic level goes through the roof when he finds himself lost in this glamorous high-tech world and learns that Laird is about to pop the question.
Trivia:
• According to Megan Mullally, the cast was given free access to improvise as much as they wanted to and eventually 240 hours of films was shot on camera, which had to be trimmed to 90 minutes for the final film.
• The 'Why Him' poster was featured in season 9 of How I Met Your Mother episode 12, air date 12/03/13 a full 3 years prior to big screen release!
• Based on UK television show "Cuckoo."
• Director John Hamburg was actor James Franco's professor at New York University.
There’s no known goofs yet, so if anyone sees it this weekend and spots one, let me know!
Have a fangtastic Friday, and wear your body armor if you have to do any last minute shopping! <3 Brock V"""V
