Movie Review: Ted 2 (2015)

Like so many sequels, especially of comedy films, a serious drought of what made the first funny and charming takes place in Ted 2, forcing writers to substitute true laughs with obscenities (saying the “F” word over and over does not make it any more clever), crude jokes and, in this case, far too many…

Move Trailer: Ted 2 (2015)

Although they got back together at the end of “Ted,” John (Mark Wahlberg) and longtime girlfriend Lori (Mila Kunis), are not getting married in the follow-up to the raunchy hit, Ted 2. As a matter of fact, Lori doesn’t even make an appearance in this trailer (probably got hit by a bus or something equally…

It’s set in the 1950s, and if the trailer is any indication, there’s…

Movie Review: Ted (2012)

I went into Ted with much trepidation. Not so much because it starred a cursing, drug abusing teddy bear, but because it emanated from the mind of Seth McFarlane. You see, I don’t like to be pandered to and McFarlane has become a shill for the Democratic Party, using his once hilarious animated program, “Family…
