Movie Trailer: Friends With Kids

A new movie is coming out this Friday. It is called Friends With Kids. I’m advertising the movie on my sidebar for the month. Thought I’d let you know more about it. Here’s the Trailer.

And here is the Press Release about the movie.

SYNOPSIS: Friends With Kids is a daring and poignant ensemble comedy about a close-knit circle of friends at that moment in life when children arrive and everything changes. The last two singles in the group observe the effect that kids have had on their friends’ relationships and wonder if there’s a better way. They decide to have a kid together – and date other people.

Jennifer Westfeldt wrote, directed, and stars in the romantic comedy Friends with Kids. She plays Julie, a Manhattanite whose biological clock is about to run out, so she convinces her longtime platonic best friend, Jason (Adam Scott) to father a child with her. They seem to have a much easier time juggling the responsibilities of new parenthood without the complication of being in a relationship with each other, which is in contrast to the two couples they are closest to. As their friends’ marriages implode, Julie and Jason’s happy equilibrium topples over as well when he falls for a hot young artist (Megan Fox) and she begins dating a successful businessman
(Edward Burns).

There are big laughs and unexpected emotional truths as this unconventional ‘experiment’ leads everyone in the group to question the nature of friendship, family and, finally, true love.

Friends With Kids stars Adam Scott (“Parks and Recreation”), Jennifer Westfeldt, Jon Hamm, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Chris O’Dowd, Megan Fox and Edward Burns.

Written and directed by Jennifer Westfeldt (Kissing Jessica Stein).

Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions will release Friends With Kids on March 9, 2012.

Little Monkey on my Back

Eva and I went for a walk today. Well, I walked most of the way and Eva was upon my back in the PiggyBack Rider. I reviewed this product about a year ago when Eva was three. She did pretty well for short hops but for longer walks she got tired of standing and wanted to get off. Today I went a little over a mile with her on my back before she got tired of standing and wanted to get down. Then we walked together for another half mile back to the house. I didn’t walk as fast as yesterday but I did have an extra 30lbs on my back for most of it.

Today was a Tuesday and as such it was time again for Geek Dads Weekly. We recorded episode 114 today. Now we are also recording video of the shows so that should be fun when that is released.
