'Men' repeat, Univision finale top Monday

Original programming lifted Spanish-language network Univision to the top of the broadcast ratings heap on Monday, edging out CBS' all-repeat lineup among young adults. ESPN was expected to dominate overall with its season finale of ''Monday Night Football.'' According to preliminary, affiliate-based national estimates from Nielsen, CBS led the Big Four from 8 to 10 p.m. with encores of comedies ''How I Met Your Mother'' (1.8/5 in 18-49, 5.9 million viewers overall), ''2 Broke Girls'' (1.9/5 in 18-49, 6.2 million viewers overall), ''Two and a Half Men'' (2.4/6 in 18-49, 8.1 million viewers overall) and ''Mike and Molly'' (2.1/5 in 18-49, 7.4 million viewers overall), with ''Men'' the night's top series in both 18-49 and total viewers. Closing things out was a repeat of ''Hawaii Five-0'' (1.6/4 in 18-49, 8.1 million viewers overall), which led its hour in key categories. Univision aired the two-hour finale of ''Fuerza del Destino'' (The Strength of Destiny), which averaged a 2.3/6 in 18-49 and 5.4 million viewers overall, followed by ''Don Francisco Presenta'' (1.5/4 in 18-49, 3.6 million viewers overall), a newsmag that featured the cast of ''Destino.'' The net edged out CBS on the night in 18-49 and was easily Monday's top broadcaster in persons 12-34 (1.9/6). Ratings for NBC could come down in the nationals due to a preemption in New Orleans for Saints football, but the net hung in there from 8 to 10 p.m. with gameshow ''Who's Still Standing'' (1.7/5 in 18-49, 6.9 million viewers overall) and a repeat of ''Fear Factor'' (1.6/4 in 18-49, 4.8 million viewers overall). It remained slow going, though, for 10 p.m. newsmag ''Rock Center with Brian Williams'' (0.9/2 in 18-49, 3.5 million viewers overall). ABC had a quiet night with repeats of ''Rudolph's Shiny New Year'' (0.9/3 in 18-49, 3.3 million viewers overall) and ''Castle'' (0.9/2 in 18-49, 4.4 million viewers overall) sandwiched between the finale of feel-good gameshow ''You Deserve It'' (1.0/3 in 18-49, 3.6 million viewers overall). The net's Atlanta station aired the Falcons' game against the Saints, so ABC's meager numbers on the night could come in even lower in the nationals. Fox aired repeats of ''House'' at both 8 (0.9/2 in 18-49, 3.0 million viewers overall) and 9 (0.8/2 in 18-49, 2.8 million viewers overall), and CW went with a repeat of theatrical ''The Education of Charlie Banks'' (0.3/1 in 18-49, 0.7 million viewers overall).

'Casa De Mi Padre' Trailer: Will Ferrell Habla Espanol

Back in April, the full trailer for 'Casa De Mi Padre' -- better known as that bananas comedy where Will Ferrell speaks Spanish -- unofficially snuck online and revealed a film that was seemingly a Funny or Die video stretched to feature length. The first ("first") teaser trailer doesn't do much more to make 'Casa De Mi Padre' look very theatrical, but -- then again -- it doesn't really have to do anything. To wit: if you find the idea of Will Ferrell speaking Spanish for an entire film HI-larious, then this will make you laugh. Or, reír. Mira el trailer por delante. Watch in HD over at Apple.

Light of Mine

A Resonance Prods. presentation. Produced by Jill Remensnyder, Brett Eichenberger. Executive producer, Josh Wallace. Directed, edited by Brett Eichenberger. Screenplay, Jill Remensnyder.With: Ji Tanzer, Rebecca Sanborn, Justin King, Lanie Hoyo.A photographer who's going blind makes one final trip with his loving wife through Yellowstone National Park in "Light of Mine," which is as replete with good intentions as it is with awkward storytelling choices. A typical case of regional moviemaking (in this case, the Central Northwest of Portland-based director Brett Eichenberger) that prizes good-hearted characters over filmmaking sophistication, the pic will draw interest in North American indie fests looking for an item with spectacular landscapes. Pro shutterbug Owen (Ji Tanzer) learns from his doctor that he has a swollen retina that will soon cause total blindness in both eyes. Owen's musician wife, Laura (Rebecca Sanborn, a jazz musician who regularly gigs with Tanzer), urges them to take the trip of a lifetime, which translates as a trek from Oregon to the most tourist-friendly sections of Yellowstone. Staged scenes tend toward wooden dialogue and perfs, while spontaneously captured moments (such as encounters with the park's imposing wildlife) spark brief moments of interest.Camera (color, 16mm-to-DV), Patrick Neary, Michael Ferry; music, John Askew, Rebecca Sanborn; production designer, Becky Wilberding.

Smug New Yorker Critic In some way Handles to Compel Sympathy For Scott Rudin

This type of silly public skirmish appears a tad too easy to just naturally occur per week once the Artist and War Equine are ruling honours chatter, but in either case, stroppy megaproducer Scott Rudin is furious using the NYer for breaking an evaluation embargo around the Girl Using the Dragon Tattoo. Who are able to blame him, especially since critic David Denby — together with the relaxation from the people from the NY Film Experts Circle who saw the film before voting a week ago — signed a contract assenting to keep his review until 12 ,. 13 in the earliest? Or more essential real question is: Why wouldn't you care? I'm able to think about a couple of reasons, chief included in this being that Denby’s excuse for breaking his word is amusing. The Playlist got a your hands on an e-mail exchange between Rudin and Denby, which really should be read to become thought — particularly this passage from Denby (who, incidentally, gave the film a rave): The machine is destructive: Grown-ups are overlooked for much of the season, cast out like cut down employees, after which given eight good movies all at one time within the last five days of the season. The sunday paper such as the NYer needs to cope as well as it may having a nutty release schedule. It wasn't my intention to interrupt the embargo, and that i never might have tried it with an adverse review. [T]he early [NYFCC] election forced the first screening of Dragon Tattoo. Therefore we were built with a dilemma: What to set up playboy on December 5? Definitely not We Bought the Zoo, or whatever it’s known as. As we held everything serious, we'd be being released on Christmas-season movies until mid-The month of january. We needed to go serious within the magazine. So unwillingly, we went early with Dragon, that we known as “mesmerizing.” I am sorry for that breach from the embargo. It won’t happen again. But it was a unique situation triggered by year-finish madness. Regardless, congratulations for creating one other good movie. I anticipate the Daldry. Best, David Denby “Best,” indeed! I i never thought it may be done, but at least — and again presuming this isn’t all some manufactured debate (that the NYer in the past could be above, but at this time who fucking knows) — I really feel pangs of sympathy for Scott Rudin. A couple of ideas for that six or seven individuals who cared enough to see this far: 1. Evaluating sophisticated adult filmgoers who face a prestige glut in December to “downsized employees” is just one of Denby’s more hobbled (as well as breathtakingly tasteless) metaphors of the season — and this can be a guy who regarded as a movie last winter “like a butterfly half from its cocoon, emerging with lots of fond looks to the protective walls.” Champion, I suppose! 2. “A magazine such as the NYer needs to cope as well as it may having a nutty release schedule,” Denby creates. Memo to Denby: Everybody needs to deal with this schedule — experts, editors, galleries, theater proprietors… It’s challenging that needs strategy and options. That’s what professionals do, not pledge one factor and alter direction to match themselves. I've got a feeling that towards the extent they can care, visitors will understand. However, you let me know, visitors. 3. Furthermore, for how long does “a magazine such as the NYer” sign NDAs barring it from covering something? I’d like to begin to see the Whitened House try by using Seymour Hersh. 4. “What to set up playboy on December 5? Definitely not We Bought the Zoo, or whatever it’s known as.” LOLOL. 5. For Christ’s sake, people, stop calling films “the Daldry” or “the Fincher” or whatever. It’s this kind of apparent, pretentious affectation — as an annoying auteurist equal to being addressed as “bro” — and everybody who practices it knows it. The title from the film is Very Noisy and extremely Close only use it. In either case, there won't be any “the Daldry” for Denby, a minimum of if Rudin upholds their own vow, also acquired through the Playlist: I possibly could not in good conscience invite you to view another movie of mine again, Daldry or else. I'm able to’t ignore this, and that i expect that you simply wouldn’t either when the situation were corrected. I’m not really thinking about the reason why you did this with the exception that you probably did — and also you must a minimum of own that, purely and just, you broke your word to us which that's a deeply lousy and immoral factor to possess done. … You'll now cause The many other reviews to operate per month prior to the discharge of the film, which is really a deeply destructive factor to possess done due to the fact you’re disdainful of We Purchased a Zoo. Why am I designed to worry about that??? For that record, this isn't the crisis that Rudin claims it's — there will likely not be considered a torrent of other reviews per month before Dragon Tattoo, and even when there have been, “deeply destructive” suggests strong dislike overall — which, as word will get around, apparently couldn’t be further from a realistic look at many testers along with other associates’ perspectives. Nonetheless, Denby’s smug entitlement is of the rare variety that outsizes even Rudin’s own. Pretty, I must say. And regardless, around we hate to help you “downsized employees” available wait, Movieline will wait to write its review nearer to the discharge from the film.
