And I’m with him. I’m mostly posting this because I can’t believe Chevy Chase was at Comic-Con. It’s like all of my loves are converging. In fact I tried to come up with a joke about how Comic-Con could cater further to my specific desires, but I kept coming up with things that already take place at Comic-Con. Doctor Who discussions and playing a lot of video games? Covered.

Kudos to fellow movie nerd Harry Hanrahan, who has put together a great list of the 100 best movie insults. The great thing about this list (besides the fact that it features it’s fair share of movies I love AND Chevy Chase) is that it’s in easy to digest video form. It’s also a lot of fun to attempt to name all of the movies, so why not set aside ten minutes today, gather around your co-workers, and have a good laugh on company time? You’ve earned it.
Okay, well not really…unless you believe Chevy’s line in the clip below…which I don’t…(but how I wish!)
Anyway, the Community finale airs tonight, and while I’m not excited that the writers feel the need to get back to the Jeff/Britta relationship (although it made Entertainment Weekly’s #1 “must” this week), this is a show that we’ve been talking about since the beginning, so I feel somewhat obligated to remind you about it.
Oh, screw it- I just wanted to post a clip of Chevy saying the word “Fletch”. You got me.

I can list all sorts of reason why this clip isn’t worth watching (Just a few: New SNL needs a laugh track to make it even appear funny, I’m still waiting for them to stop promoting Obama and start making fun of him, and there’s a blatant political agenda behind this entire video), but I can list one very solid reason why it’s completely worth watching. It begins around 3:50 if you just want to skip ahead…I’d reccomend it.
For comedy that is actually funny, please don’t forget NBC’s Community returns tonight at 8!
Vigilante justice.
We’ve discussed the possibility before, but after the success (I think) of the recent HomeAway.com short, a new Vacation film is looking more and more likely. This one supposedly features an adult Rusty, taking his family to Wally World one last time before it closes for good, leading me to wonder if they’ll title it Vacation 5: The Final Vacation. The rumor is that the studio hopes to bring Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo along for the ride.
Now, I love Chevy. And I love the Vacation movies. But my question is, would this really be a good idea for Chevy’s career? He’s just now sneaking his way back into the public consciousness with Community. Yes, the HomeAway.com thing wasn’t a total failure, but if Chevy returns to one of his 80′s franchises, one that is generally known for lackluster sequels, might this end up being a step backward in his return to comedy legend status?
I suppose it depends on two things:
Of course this is all moot for me. They’ve already got my money, as does Hot Tub Time Machine and any other Chevy comedy. What about you guys?

New Hot Tub Time Machine Trailer!
And an awesomely gross BTTF parody.
Remember when we warned you about Chevy’s return as Clark Griswold via a Super Bowl ad for HomeAway? Well, here’s a sneak peak at what we can expect:
The Oscar nominations were announced today with no big surprises. Personally, I’m glad to see District 9 up for a few awards, although Sharlto Copley really deserved a best actor nom as well…but what do I know? If it were up to me, Chevy Chase would still be hosting and any Oscars that Quentin Tarantino won would be given to estate of Sergio Leone.
The real news here is that your good pals Logan and Ryan will once again be giving the Oscars the ol’ CE! live blog treatment! Some of you older fans may recall that we had a blast doing this last year. Keep an eye on the site for handy reminders as Oscar season continues. The Oscars will air on March 7.
