‘THE LEAGUE’ Presents: Exclusive ‘HORRIBLE BOSSES’ Sydney Red Carpet Interviews

Horrible-Bosses-Sydney-Event-Key-Cast-01

Special thanks to Richard Gray of TheReelBits.com for the following copy:

You can check out my review of the film here.

Horrible Bosses had its Sydney premiere on 16 August 2011, and its comedy superstars Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis were in town to talk about the film. Horrible Bosses is about Nick (Bateman), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) and Dale (Day), for whom the only thing that would make the daily grind more tolerable would be to grind their intolerable bosses into dust. Quitting is not an option, so, with the benefit of a few-too-many drinks and some dubious advice from a hustling ex-con, the three friends devise a convoluted and seemingly foolproof plan to rid themselves of their respective employers…permanently.

Yesterday morning – Tuesday 9th May 2011 – Paramount Pictures Australia held a special function for the upcoming J.J Abrams directed/ Steven Spielberg produced blockbuster: ‘Super 8’. They showed us (Media and online bloggers) a selection of unfinished sequences from the film. And even though the visual FX, sound mix and editing were unfinished; the footage still looked incredible. The vibe after the presentation was so enthusiastic that I doubt the film is going to disappoint.

Warning: there are very MINOR SPOILERS in the article. If you have seen the trailer – then you’ve seen more of the plot then revealed here. Read more…
