With this weekend’s release of I Love You, Man, the recent trend of comedies centered on platonic male relationships—the ‘bromance’—is articulated to its furthest extent thus far, taking the traditional genre formula of the romantic comedy and replacing the traditional male-female love story with two heterosexual males.

Somehow this day would not be complete without a little puking scene. Why? Because that is how we roll here at FSR… always classy. Also classy is this new redband clip from the upcoming Paramount Pictures release I Love You Man, starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel.

Just in case we needed something to help us sober up after a long afternoon of drinking — hug it, chug it, football style — the lovely folks over at South by Southwest have dropped upon us their full lineup for the upcoming 2009 edition of their film festival.

Many of you may not know this yet, but the international headquarters of FSR is on the move — we are headed to sunny Austin, Texas.
