Full disclosure: I missed the last 10 minutes of Vacation. Last night’s press screening started 20 minutes late, then began without any sound, which lead to a 10 minute delay to correct the technical difficulties. With an unbreakable engagement elsewhere, I had to sneak out right before the very last scene. So take this review with as many grains of salt as you’d like. If you think those final minutes might recontextualize everything that came before to transform a generally miserable comedy into a beacon of transcendent hilarity, so be it. Having sat through the previous 90 minutes, I’m of the opinion that nothing short of the long-lost missing footage from Orson Welles’ Magnificent Ambersons could have redeemed this dreadful film.
'Community' season 5 is frighteningly close at hand by its January 2 premiere, but what would the holidays be without the Greendale gang? Check out a new animated special of the 'Community' gang reuniting just in time to save Jeff's Christmas for a "Miracle on Jeff's Street!"
Please, make it stop. Chevy Chase, you break our hearts whenever you open your mouth about ‘Community.’ That’s right, it seems as though even weeks after the fervor of ‘Community’ star and comedy legend Chevy’ Chase’s feud with series creator Dan Harmon seems to have died down, the silver-haired comedian is at it again with any reporter who asks.
