Light-hearted made-for-TV sequel in which former police dog Zeus
once again comes to the rescue of his family. The Bannister family
and their trusty dog, Zeus (voice of Joey Lawrence), have moved
into a new house. All is well in the house itself, but their
neighbour, Eli (Lance Henrikson), and his dog, Medusa (voice of
Mayim Bialik), seem to be strange characters. So strange are the
happenings across at Eli's, that George Bannister (Gary Valentine)
enlists the help of his former enemies, Ted (Dean Cain) and Stewey
(Joey Diaz), to investigate. When the three fail to return, Zeus is
once again called to save the day.
Kevin James returns to work as everyone's favourite mall cop in the
sequel to the 2009 comedy. When clumsy, overweight security guard
Paul Blart (James) travels to Las Vegas with his daughter Maya
(Raini Rodriguez) to attend the annual Security Guard Conference,
he inadvertently discovers that a heist is being planned by master
criminal Vincent (Neal McDonough). As the security team of the Las
Vegas hotels refuse to take the threat seriously, Blart takes it
upon himself to find the crooks and catch them in the act, proving
to himself and everyone around him that he's still got what it
takes to be a good security guard. The cast also includes Eduardo
Verastegui, Daniella Alonso and David Henrie.
All nine series of the popular US sitcom about a beleaguered
courier driver and his family. Doug and Carrie Heffernan are a
young Queens couple who should be sitting pretty. Doug (Kevin
James) is a courier driver with a cheeky, playful nature who, given
a choice, almost always chooses what's most likely to rile his
wife's fiery temper. Carrie (Leah Remini) is a legal assistant,
vivacious, wise, and, on the face of it, way too good for Doug - a
fact that informs much of the comedy here. In the first flush of
their married life together, however, Carrie's parents' house burns
down. Her mum dies, and dad Arthur needs a place to stay. Arthur
(Jerry Stiller) is an oddball, hilariously volatile old man who
never says anything that isn't in anger or indignation. An ensemble
of Doug's quirky friends, who constantly dispense advice he takes
to heart but which is utterly, disastrously wrong, round out the
cast in this long-running family comedy.
Triple bill of films following the Christmas adventures of the
irrepressible dog, Zeus. 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas' (2009) sees
ex-police dog Zeus (voiced by Mario Lopez), who failed
spectacularly at his former vocation, adopted by the Bannister
family as an early Christmas present. When the house is broken into
while the family are away on holiday it is up to Zeus to save the
day with his dubious crime-fighting skills. 'The Dog Who Saved
Christmas Vacation' (2010) follows the Bannister family and Zeus to
a plush Rocky Mountain resort, where Zeus strikes up a promising
friendship with flirtatious poodle Bella (voice of Paris Hilton).
Finally, 'The Dog Who Saved the Christmas Holidays' (2012) sees
Zeus and his owners fly to California to stay with their relative,
Aunt Barbara (Shelley Long), at her extravagant beach mansion. Here
Zeus finds a rival for human affection, the boisterous puppy, Eve.
How will he deal with the young pretender?
By 1970, the hippie dream of the 60s was dead -- the soundtrack of
the revolution had become a multimillion-dollar industry. Glitter
tried to save music's soul, but was too commercial to be cutting
edge for long. Then, in 1974, a rescue movement arrived. Three
chords, black jeans, a pair of shades, and a whole lot of attitude
made music that matched the facts of life on its home ground,
mid-70sNew York City's East Village. The initiators of punk,
Richard Hell, Tom Verlaine, and Patti Smith had one foot in
nineteenth-century French symbolist poetry and the other in the raw
sound of their predecessors such as the Velvet Underground. This
first-hand account of a little-documented era features luminaries
such as Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Debbie Harry, Divine,
Devo, and the New York Dolls, and tells of the gigs at CBGB hitting
the news as Warhol and his glittering crew descended. What began as
a unique blend of fin-de-siecle ennui and razor-sharp rock became
anarchic frenzy and safety pins, overrun by gutter decadence and
stupid-chic. With Malcolm McLaren hijacking the scene's momentum,
the Blank Generation plunged into excess and eventual ruin, its
survivors making the leap into mainstream.
