Netflix and Chill: Extract — The Statesman http://www.theumdstatesman.com/culture/2016/9/26/netflix-and-chill-extract Statesma HOME SPORTS AND OUTDOORS CULTURE NEWS CONTACT US SEARCH Netflix and Chill: Extract SEPTEMBER 26, 2016 BY LAURA GRUHLKE While scrolling through Netflix looking for a movie that I haven't already seen 100 times or that doesn't look completely dumb, I came across "Extract." I was immediately drawn to this movie because it starred my ultimate girl-crush Mila Kunis. Though since it was a Netflix movie and I had never heard of it, I didn't expect much at all. Mila Kunis plays Cindy, a con artist who tries to hustle a guy who just got one testicle blown off in an accident at Jason Bateman, who plays Joel, company. Then Bateman has some issues of his own as well. He struggles to get home every night before 8 p.m. because after his wife (Kristen Wiig) gets into her sweatpants, she doesn't take them off. 1 of 2 10/6/2016 1:26 PM Netflix and Chill: Extract — The Statesman http://www.theumdstatesman.com/culture/2016/9/26/netflix-and-chill-extract When Kunis starts working as a temp for Bateman, he is immediately turned on by her made-up fascination with his flavored-extract company. Bateman confides his attraction in his local bartender and best friend, who then convinces him to hire a "gigolo" to have an affair with his wife. This sounds like a solid plan to Bateman after he accidentally took a horse tranquilizer pill. This movie has more to offer than just Mila Kunis. Without expecting very much from it being a typical movie you've never heard of that starts some of your favorite actors, it turned out to not be a complete waste of time. Next time you are looking for a not-so-horrible Netflix movie, I think that "Extract" would be an entertaining choice. Rating: 3.5/5 • 0 LIKES < SHARE < Newer Older > 2 of 2 10/6/2016 1:26 PM.

One outlet which constantly both reflects and enables patriarchy is our media; the movie industry in particular plays a critical role in constructing gender roles and reflecting our cultural attitudes toward patriarchy.

Netflix's Big Mouth
Netflix’s Big Mouth Big Mouth = Big Topics The first season of Netflix’s new animated show Big Mouth debuted on September 29, 2017 and is very popular among teens and young adults. Boasting an all-star cast and a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the cartoon is about middle schoolers going through puberty in the most explicit, perverse, and, at times, depraved way possible. Puberty is indeed a difficult time for all of us, and while the show does bring some good to the discussion, it’s also fraught with problems. What do I need to know about Big Mouth? It’s an adult cartoon based on the real-life experiences that comic writers Nick Kroll and An- drew Goldberg had as kids growing up in New York. They share, in graphic detail, what it was like growing up and going through puberty. As most young men do, Nick and Andrew strug- gled through lust, sexuality, relationships with girls, and the ups and downs of friendship. The show features some of the most popular comedians of our time as the voices, including: John Mulaney, Fred Armisen, Kristen Wiig, and Jordan Peele. Although the show is about pre-teens, it is intended for an adult audience. However, Netflix does not effectively limit younger viewers’ access, and undoubtedly, there will be many teens and pre-teens who watch the show. Many of them have lots of questions about sex, and they will be drawn to the show in hopes of finding answers. Unfortunately, due to the content, they are likely to develop some severely warped ideas from watching it.

arcade OCTOBER 10 2008 • 12 the ｾｵ･ｳｴ fo-r the top 10 comedic pe-rsonalities Derrick Tou s senior staffwriter This year's pursuit for the funniest comedic personalities was long, hard and filled with surprises. After searching and scouring You Tube and IMDb for days, a large list of funny people was created. After cutting said list from a group of hopefuls that included Bon-Qui- Qui, the creatarrrs of Pirate Facebook, and whoever has been setting off the Wall, Phelps and Irby fire-alarms, the following 10 comedians and comediennes were selected for keeping us rolling on the floor and slapping our knees. 1. Tina Fey No surprise here. Tina Fey is a maverick filled with that maverick energy, but she's got more to her name than the best Sarah Palin impression this side of Alaska. Governor Palin herself described the Weekend Update host and star of "Baby Mama" as "a ｨｯｯｴｾ As the first female head writer of"Satur- day Night Live" and the creator of the hit NBC show "30 Rock," Fey has garnered five Emmys in the past two years as well as several hottest woman nomi· nations. Although male fans across the nation were disappointed when Fey traded her naughty secretary black-rimmed glasses for Palin lenses, she remains on the top of the current comedic scene. 2. Conan O'Brien Probably today's most prominent comedic writer and funniest male personality, Conan O'Brien earns the number two spot. A former writ- er for "Saturday Night Live" and "The Simpsons," Conan has hosted his "Late Night" show for over 12 years; however, the magna cum laude graduate of Harvard will replace Jay Leno next year as the face of late night tele\;sion and will most likely celebrate with his famous string dance.

Girl Most Likely

After both her career and relationship come to a halt, she’s forced to make the humiliating move back home to New Jersey with her eccentric mother and younger brother (Annette Bening and Christopher Fitzgerald). Adding further insult to injury, there’s a strange man (Darren Criss) sleeping in her old bedroom and an even stranger man sleeping in her mother’s bed (Matt Dillon). Through it all, Imogene eventually realizes that as part of her rebuilding process she must finally come to love and accept both her family and her Jersey roots if she’s ever going to be stable enough to get away from them. Girl Most Likely stars Kristen Wiig, Annette Bening, Matt Dillon, Darren Criss (“Glee”), Christopher Fitzgerald (Broadway’s “Wicked”) and Nathan Corddry (“Children’s Hospital,”). The film is directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini (American Splendor, The Nanny Diaries) from a script by Michelle Morgan (Middle of Nowhere).
