Remember your childhood fears perhaps born on your local playgrounds of a red rubber ball hurtling towards your head? Or the sweet taste of revenge when you threw it right back at the class bully? Well, get ready to once again dodge, duck, dip and dive…dodgeball is back, and this time it's not just for the schoolyard. Dodgeball is becoming a cultural phenomenon. Adult dodgeball leagues are springing up in major cities, Vanity Fair called the game the 'It Sport,' and The New York Times and Fortune recently heralded the sport's re-emergence. So the time is ripe for a poignant motion picture that brings dignity and respect to the world of competitive dodgeball. A tale in the tradition of great films about legendary sports heroes. An emotionally stirring look at the thrills of victory and the heartbreaks of defeat. We'll let you know when that movie is made. In the meantime, we have Dogeball: A True Underdog Story, a film that grabs life by the ball. The story's protagonist, Peter LaFleur (Vince Vaughn ), is a charismatic underachiever and proprietor of a rundown gym called Average Joe's. The facility's clientele of decidedly less-than-'average Joes' is made up of a self-styled pirate, a scrawny nerd who dreams of impressing an unattainable cheerleader, an obsessive aficionado of obscure sports, a dim-witted young man, and a cocky know-it-all who, of course, really knows nothing. Peter's humble gym catches the eye of White Goodman (Ben Stiller), the power-mullet-sporting, Fu-Manchu-d, egomaniacal owner of Globo Gym, a gleaming monolith of fitness. White intends to take over Average Joe's, and Peter's non-existent bookkeeping is making it all too easy for him. A foreclosing bank has stationed attorney Kate Veatch (Christine Taylor) inside Average Joe's to finalize Globo's takeover of the gym. But Peter's boyish charms win her over and Kate joins his team of social rejects to beat the

A feature length expansion of the hugely acclaimed short film Dara, Macabre boasts a classic premise that quickly devolves into deranged violence. A group of friends traveling from a remote part of the country back to the big city stops to help a young woman who claims to have been assaulted and robbed, eventually agreeing to drive her back home because the horn-dog among their group sees the opportunity to get a little action. And, oh, there's definitely action waiting for them but not the sort anticipated…

Trailer for Borderline (Une pure affaire). David and Christine could not possibly be more ordinary. They exist in the most frustrating of middle class existences. David must come to grips with the fact that he may never make partner at his law firm while Christine gets fired for disrespecting her boss. On top of all that, they are becoming increasingly incapable of connecting with their children and their debt is mounting. While walking their dog in the park, David is almost run down by a man fleeing from the police. When he finds the man s bag in the bushes, the nefarious contents have him contemplating a new life strategy. But even if he s able to survive his wife s ire when she finds out, the two of them must still contend with the sudden return of the bag s original owner. Borderline is the quintessential fish-out-of-water story. It is a farce detailing how two people who could not be further removed from the criminal lifestyle bumble their way through severely criminal activity. The humor comes from the fact that somehow, beyond all logical assumption, these two turn out to be quite adept at selling drugs. Their white-collar, overly professional approach to peddling cocaine strikes a chord with their clientele and their returns are massive. But what is truly hilarious is the sudden spring in their steps as their success in their illegal enterprise endows them with a sense of pride and confidence the likes of which they haven t experienced in years. The comedy is tempered with suspense as the gangster owner of the cocaine shows up and threatens their newfound lifestyle; as well as their lives in general. If they thought their bosses were intense before… Can these two suburban dealers regain their humdrum existence before they lose everything?
