The trailer for This Is 40, which follows up on the characters Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd played in Knocked Up, is now, uh, UP.

Just thought you should know.

It's December! Christmas, Hannukah, Festivus, blah blah blah... what we're most excited for is the movie version of Les Miserables!

Our friends at Vulture have started a Les Miz Advent Calendar to countdown to the joyous day when we'll finally be able to decide whether or not it was worth it for Anne Hathaway to shave her head and starve herself! You know, for art!

When you click on the second day of the calendar, it reveals a video of Jason Segel and Paul Rudd singing the Javert/Valjean duet "Confrontation." (If the previous sentence seemed like jibberish to you, you'd better get up to speed QUICK, son.) BUT... Vulture (out of the kindness and goodness of their holiday hearts) also reminded us of the time that Paul Rudd sang "Confrontation" with David Wain in New York City!

Now, the Wain/Rudd clip is from 2006, which, sadly, is before My Damn Channel was born. But we're happy to have brought you Wain/Rudd collaborations here and here.

Will there be more? Maybe you should ask Santa. And by Santa we mean David Wain.

byThursday is Thanksgiving bros and broettes! Let's party!

1. My boys in Such Gold just released their first music video for their song Two Year Plan . So happy to see my dudes making moves.

2. Paul Rudd and Tina Fey are in a new movie together called Admission which looks adorable, not unlike the two of them.

3. Who doesn't like five clips of Sonic Youth from 1985? If the answer is you then I suggest you immediately stop reading this blog because we aren't friends anymore.

4. I love the Muppets. I love Steve Martin. This buzzfeed article is the greatest!

5. I just realized Kate Upton is on the cover of Italian Vogue and the fact that she even exists is literally unfair.

Happy Turkey eating! Let me know how your meal was @MrChrisDonahue

Hello nerds, I have a lot to talk about today, so let's just jump right into it! 

-The panels for New York Comic Con have been announced and I'm in a bit of a pickle!  On Saturday, both the Nerdist panel and the Saga panel are at the same time!  How am I suppose to choose between my favorite podcast and my current favorite comic book?  If only I had a TARDIS to manage my time...  But seriously, which one do you think I should go to?

-Obsidian Entertainment, the makers of Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout: New Vegas, have launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for an all-new RPG called Project Eternity.  From the looks of it, it seems like they'll be taking aspects of various games we know and love, such as vast open world exploring like Skyrim and the decision making and complex dialog interaction from Mass Effect.  With 25 days left to go, they've already exceeded their goal of $1.1 Million, but the more money they raise, the more content they will be able to put in the game. 

-The movie adaptation of Perks of Being a Wallflower comes out today!  Who else is going to see it?  I'm going after work.  If you're like me, you clung to this book throughout high school.  Besides, Emma Watson and Paul Rudd are in it!  What more could you ask for?!

If that doesn't whet your nerdy thirst, be sure to tune in to Kristina's Answerly video later today!

1. Robsten (Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart) may still be broken after all. You mean their relationship was fake? A marketing ploy contrived by all parties to milk every last cent from the last installment of their multi-million dollar movie franchise? You don't say.

2. Paranormal Activity 4 scared up a win at the box office over the weekend. I'm so sorry for that sentence. What a terrible, terrible, thing to have written.

3. Lindsay Lohan's father tried to have an intervention with her and it didn't work. BUT, she's also off the hook for her latest hit-and-run allegation, so, you know, there's that.

4. "Paul Ryan Shirtless" is googled 9 times more than "Paul Ryan Budget."

5. Lil Wayne sang "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" at the San Francisco Giants vs St. Louis Cardinals National League Championship game on Sunday, proving why he is a rapper and not a crooner. This also makes us wonder whether maybe Harry Caray would have been great with the 808s.

It's the freakin' weekend baby. I'm about to have me some fun!

1. Eliot Glazer has been releasing sketch comedy with Above Average and is killing it.

2. Dinosaur Jr. just released a strange but awesome music video with Maria Bamford in it.

3. Paul Dano's going to play Brian Wilson in a Brian Wilson Biopic!

4. Christopher Owens released Lysandre and I love it.

5. Dan Klein is pulling off another one of his Big Time Pranks!

I don't have to work tomorrow!!! Tweet me @MrChrisDonahue
