Kim Kardashian Dishes on Disaster Movie

Kim Kardashian is known for having giant breasts and for starring in a sex tape with Ray J.

But now the socialite is trying to build a movie career. She stars in this weekend's Disaster movie and talked about it with TV Guide:

TVGuide.com: In Disaster Movie, what's the "clothes line" plot on which all the spoofs and gags are hung?
Kardashian: Basically, it's about a group of friends trying to get out of New York city because all these natural disasters are happening. Along the way, we spoof everything.

TVGuide.com: And what does "everything" include?
Kardashian: All of the superhero movies – Iron Man, Batman and The Hulk — Sex and the City, Amy Winehouse, Miley Cyrus, the Jonas brothers, Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo.... We do everything. Indiana Jones, High School Musical....

TVGuide.com: Do you have a favorite moment or sight gag?
Kardashian: The funniest part of the movie, I have to say, is Amy Winehouse. That character is hysterical. My favorite part of filming was when Carmen [Electra] and I spoof the WWE Divas, and we do a whole wrestling scene. We had to learn all these choreographed moves, so it looked way crazier than what it was. We had stunt doubles to help us with the super-crazy stuff, but it was insane.

Reel Movie Reviews: Office Space

We needed to write a review about Office Space.

The film may have come out in 1999, but with College and Disaster Movie trying to pass themselves off as comedies these days, it was imperative to remind readers about what true comedy is all about.

Cubicle frustration. Copy machine hatred. Bitter dudes named Michael Bolton.

That's where the laughter is at.

The Bobs, Peter

Peter might not be missing work... but you'll be missing out if you don't read our Office Space review!
