Pitch Perfect

The song has a long history and has the internet to thank for being part of 'Pitch Perfect'

We're heartbroken.

Celebrities from across the spectrum came together to answer phones, sing songs and raise money for hurricane relief.

Mitchell had the idea for he and Andy to ask each other trivia questions that the other was likely to not know. This worked out well for Andy since Mitchell's questions were not very hard.

The original Pitch Perfect grossed a modest $65 million at the domestic box office, which was just enough to justify a sequel. Three years later, Pitch Perfect 2 has just passed $160 million on a budget of only $29 million, so yeah, of course Universal is officially moving forward with Pitch Perfect 3. It turns out that a combination of snarky comedy and a capella remixes of pop hits is a license to print money. So much money.

Tomorrowland may have taken the top spot at the box office in its debut weekend, but things still look awfully grim for the George Clooney sci-fi vehicle. Not only did the film open far below expectations, it faced serious competition in Pitch Perfect 2, which continued to kick aca-butt in its second weekend. And it wasn’t the only new release to under-perform, with the Poltergeist remake also falling short of early predictions. If you were a new release this weekend, things were awfully rough.

The first ‘Pitch Perfect’ was a sleeper success, doing surprisingly solid business at the box office and earning equally solid reviews from critics. But it was home video that transformed this little a cappella comedy into a genuine sensation, instantly becoming the favorite film of 12-year-old girls (and their initially reluctant parents) all over the world. So the new ‘Pitch Perfect 2’ trailer arrives with the air of an event film. The sequel is not an underdog, but the Bigger, Flashier, and Louder follow-up that has the confidence to suggest that there is an entire franchise to be found here.

From The Avengers, to Hunger Games to Magic Mike to Pitch Perfect, there are a lot of movies that people are looking forward to seeing in 2015. Here's the dates you can circle on your calendars.

I would like to start this blog by saying, "Thank you to Jonny V for showing this video to me." Now that that is out of the way, let's get down to business.  Anna Kendrick's song 'Cups' from Pitch Perfect has taken over the world.  Everyone and their brother did a cups cover or learned the cup trick and posted it on Youtube...
