Disney’s upcoming reboot of Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day appears to have a slightly different title, according to a Copyright Office entry.

Another film based on Judith Viorst’s popular children’s book, it differs from the original by making its central family Latinx.
According to an entry on the US Copyright Office, this upcoming reboot has a slightly different, albeit entirely logical, title. It’s called Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip.
The entry also confirms that Marvin Lemus is directing the new movie, and that the cast will include Thomas Nemer (who plays the titular Alexander), Eva Longoria, Jessie Garcia, Cristo Fernandez...

Who knew when the year began that a sequel to a 36-year-old movie starring its 60-year-old actor who headlined the original would be the box office champ so far this year? But “Top Gun: Maverick” starring Tom Cruise, which was released Aug. 23 on digital formats while still flying high in theaters is not only the No. 1 film of the year with a staggering haul of 683.4 million domestically and 720 million overseas. And the acclaimed film didn’t even play in China or Russia. “Top Gun: Maverick” is also the biggest film of Cruise’s career which began in 1981 with Franco Zeffirelli’s “Endless Love.”
And with the digital release, let’s relive 1986, the year we first felt the need for speed and flew into the danger zone. The year the original “Top Gun” took our breath away.

Exclusive: The Disney live action team is in early development on a reboot of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day with Matt Lopez writing. 21 Laps and Jim Henson Company, who produced the first film, will return as producers. The film will be developed for Disney+.
The original film is based on the Judith Viorst children’s book and is considered one of the more popular children books of all time. Disney’s first film starred Steve Carell as Alexander’s dad and followed the young boy as he went through a truly tough day when it starts with him realizing that the gum he fell asleep chewing is now hopelessly tangled in his hair, and things get worse from there, to the point he threatens to chuck it all and move to Australia.

Through no fault of its own, the 200th episode of “Bob’s Burgers” — titled “Bob Belcher and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Kids,” after Judith Viorst’s meme-spawning children’s book — is kind of a let down.
Written by Steven Davis, Season 11’s sixth entry tries to solve a simple mystery: Who burned down the restaurant? Ok, “burned down” might be a little much, but the kitchen has been rendered inoperable on the eve of Ocean Fest, and Bob (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) is understandably livid. As Linda (John Roberts) plays peacekeeper, Tina (Dan Mintz), Gene (Eugene Mirman), and Louise (Kristen Schaal) each try to explain their side of the story, and the half-hour builds to a fitting and fun closing lesson.
The episode itself is pretty good, actually. Everyone gets their time to shine, the mystery goes hand-in-hand with the comedy, and there’s at least one fascinating animation choice.

The episode itself is pretty good, actually. Everyone gets their time to shine, the mystery goes hand-in-hand with the comedy, and there’s at least one fascinating animation choice.

You have to give a bit of applause to Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner for being in Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. It isn’t that it’s good, because it really isn’t, but it’s a fun, family-friendly effort that aims at making kids laugh.
In the world of movies geared towards younger audiences, there are two camps – those that have some appeal to older audiences as well, and those that really, really don’t. This one is squarely in the latter camp, which actually makes it hard to judge.
Sure, it’s fairly stupid, but it isn’t precisely because it thinks you’re stupid (or kids are). It’s just that if you’re young, you’re easier to get a laugh out of, and things like getting kicked by a kangaroo are hilarious.
While the film manages a decent story,...

Disney’s live-action comedy Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, based on the popular kid’s book by Judith Viorst, got little love when it opened theatrically in October. When Melissa Howland reviewed it here at We Are Movie Geeks, she called it “….a boring, cluttered mess.” (read all of Melissa’s review Here)
Watching Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day on Disney’s new Blu-ray in the less-demanding confines of home, I found it not at all a terrible, horrible, very bad experience. In fact, it was a bit funnier than I expected. 11-year-old Alexander Cooper (Ed Oxenbould) and his family (dad Steve Carell, mom Jennifer Gardner) are put in silly, sitcom-style scenarios, and the PG-style calamities are harmless fun. There are sight gags, pop cultural references, and gross-outs aplenty, but they’re done with a hint of restraint and even some wit.

Despite an impressive showing, Dracula was no match for Amazing Amy, even in her second weekend in theaters. David Fincher's adaptation of Gone Girl took the top spot again, only falling 30 percent from its debut weekend, with an estimated $26.8 million. The Fox pic, which cost around $61 million to produce, has grossed $78.3 million domestically so far and looks poised to go on to be Fincher's highest earner (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button holds the current title with $127.5 million). Universal's Dracula Untold, an origin story of the classic character starring Luke Evans, opened in second place with $23.5 from 2,887 theaters,...

Judith Viorst’s beloved children’s story Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, written in 1972, is a one-act wonder — an irreverent cavalcade of horrors, misunderstandings, and missteps that befall one particularly unlucky and pessimistic child. There’s probably no way to adapt it for the screen without undoing its wonderfully one-note premise. The new film, directed by Miguel Arteta and written by Rob Lieber, pays heed to the broad strokes of the original work while updating and expanding it for big-studio entertainment. Such attempts usually collapse in a smarm-cloud of competing demographic interests, cheap gags, and bloat; see pretty much every feature-length Dr. Seuss adaptation for examples. This minor miracle, amazingly, doesn’t. It’s funny, fast, and charming.“My parents say there’s no such thing as a bad day, that it’s all just how you look at it,” young Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) tells...

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Notable: Based on the book by Judith Viorst.
It’s hard to put down a movie thats goal is to just get the family together and entertain them for 90 minutes, but I’ll try. It just doesn’t appeal to me to hear and see Steve Carell scream in a movie again; the guy does it every time and I don’t think my stomach can take it. This rich family doesn’t have it so bad after all is the moral right?
Dracula Untold
Notable: Universal intends the film to be a reboot of the Universal Monsters franchises.

Forty-two years after author Judith Viorst published the 32-page children's book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, Walt Disney Studios brings the story to life on the big screen, courtesy of director Miguel Arteta. The movie, in theaters today, stars Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner as a married couple whose 11-year-old son Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) experiences the worst day ever. Though he receives little sympathy from his busy parents or elder siblings (played by Kerris Dorsey and Dylan Minnette), Alexander eventually helps his family put their own bad days into perspective. The comedy also stars Jennifer Coolidge, Donald Glover, Megan Mullally, Bella Thorne and Dick Van Dyke. "The...

Chicago – This is what happens when a beloved book gets sucked into the big Hollywood studio machine and gets all the endearing qualities – plus its heart and soul – sucked right out of it. “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad movie.
It goes from Alexander getting gum stuck in his hair and his mom buying him the wrong kind of sneakers to Steve Carell doing sake bombs in a Japanese steak house on a job interview and catching a pirate shirt he’s wearing on fire.
Rating: 1.5/5.0
How did we get here? Screenwriter Rob Lieber seems to think bigger is automatically better. And this produces a movie that’s so broad it misses the specificity of the original and also seems stretched to its breaking point even at a relatively brief 81 minutes.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible Very Bad, No Good Day follows a rough 24 hours in the life of 11-year-old Alexander Cooper.
Adapted for the big screen from Judith Viorst's 1972 children's picture book, Alexander begins with the titular character waking up with gum in his hair – which ends up being the least of his troubles as the day unfolds. What’s worse, Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) feels like his family is failing to show him due empathy, making him conclude that he’s the only one with bad luck in the bunch.
In Miguel Arteta’s movie, the following day explores a bad day for Alexander’s mom and dad (Jennifer Garner and Steve Carell) and his siblings Anthony (Dylan Minnette), Emily (Kerris Dorsey) and Trevor. Throughout his family’s “terrible, horrible, very bad, no good day,” Alexander tries to help everyone deal with the steady stream of misfortune.

After holding off Annabelle’s possessed doll in a photo finish at the box office last week, Gone Girl faces a new round of challengers in what could be another tight race, this time pitting the David Fincher-Ben Affleck thriller against Robert Downey Jr., Dracula and one peeved kid. And while the field is becoming overcrowded with fall entries, the race should help continue the box office’s rebound from a dismal September.
Although it’s taken some hits from critics as a typical courtroom drama, The Judge has wattage in the form of Downey and Robert Duvall. The $50 million pic from Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow, though, could be the season’s first victim of the overcrowded field. Like Gone Girl, it’s an R-rated drama starring a comic-book movie superhero. But it lacks the public chatter of Gone Girl, and could be cannibalized by adult competition.

Robert Downey Jr., Dracula, and a cute, unlucky family have all come out to challenge Gone Girl and Annabelle's box office reign this weekend. David Fincher's popular psychological thriller could hold down the top spot for the second weekend in a row, with that demon doll close behind, but it's going to be a tight race with The Judge, Dracula Untold, and Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

Privilege Parable: Arteta’s Trifling Adaptation of Famed Children’s’ Novel
Perhaps the most curious aspect of the live action Disney version of Judith Viorst’s 1972 children’s story (the first in a series), Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is that it’s helmed by Miguel Arteta, a director known for rather frankly adult material such as Chuck & Buck (2000), The Good Girl (2002), and Cedar Rapids (2011). What initially attracted him to the project, which was originally set to be helmed by Lisa Cholodenko, feels wholly absent from this end product, an extremely watered down version of the complicated human relationships generally on display in Arteta’s films. While one can’t really complain that this is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad film, per se, one shouldn’t be surprised that it’s calibrated specifically for a particular audience, the privileged white familial nuclear unit,...

In his bestseller The Tipping Point, author Malcolm Gladwell details how certain cultural entities or social ideas spread through the public consciousness and become big. One of the chapters focuses on “stickiness,” something that makes an element or idea stick with its target audience. In that section, Gladwell refers to two famed television programs aimed at young children: Sesame Street and Blue’s Clues.
While the former is a timeless classic of public broadcasting, the latter was touted for being more efficient with educating children. It has something to do with its “stickiness.” While Sesame Street had short segments and sly pop culture references that confused youngsters, Blue’s Clues focused on a few recurring characters and had pauses to give its target audience the time to absorb the information. Also, the show repeated the same episode several times in a week, giving a young audience the time to learn from experience.

Steve Carell is a master at playing the well-meaning buffoon, and the experience seems to serve him well in four clips released in anticipation of Disney's adaptation of Judith Viorst's book “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.” The film centers around the concept that everyone can have a bad day, and then takes that to the extreme. It's the story of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould), who knows bad days very well, but it's not something the rest of his family seems to know anything about.

My editor told me I could go down to Washington on the train and go meet Judy, and I bought a ticket and went, and I got to talk to her and her husband and we had lunch and they were really nice. I thought I might meet her son Alexander or her other son Anthony or her other son Nick, but they were grown up and had to go to work. The train home was slow and the man at the snack bar was weird and mean to the lady next to me. He was nice to me, though. I got a Snickers bar.

One of my favorite books when I was a young kid was Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by author Judith Viorst (who I would learn later in life actually grew up in the same town as me). Like many of you, surely, I could easily relate to the story of a boy having an unbelievably bad day, leading to dreams of escaping off to Australia. The book has always stuck with me . so naturally it was a bit surreal when I, along with a small group of other journalists, got to visit the set of the movie adaptation of the story last summer when the production was filming in Los Angeles at the legendary Melody Ranch Motion Picture Studio. Directed by Miguel Arteta (Cedar Rapids), the big screen version of the classic children.s book stars newcomer Ed Oxenbould as the 11-year-old Alexander Cooper, who...

But when Alexander tells his upbeat family about the misadventures of his disastrous day, he finds little sympathy and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him.
He soon learns that he’s not alone when his mom (Jennifer Garner), dad (Steve Carell), brother (Dylan Minnette) and sister (Kerris Dorsey) all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Anyone who says there is no such thing...

Disney is buzzing over Million Dollar Arm and Maleficent, both in theaters this month, but it's also building anticipation for another movie: Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. The family comedy stars Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner as a married couple in the big screen adaptation of Judith Viorst's beloved 1972 children's book of the same name. The story follows Alexander (Ed Oxenbould), who is having the worst day an 11-year-old can imagine. His family seemingly shows little sympathy, and he begins to wonder if bad things happen only to him. "I feel like no one understands me," he tells his older brother, played by Dylan Minnette. As he soon learns, one day...

The classic children's book by Judith Viorst is finally coming to the big screen in this live-action adaptation from Walt-Disney Pictures.
Fans of the book remember the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he lives through one of the worst days of his existance. It begins with a single incident of gum stuck in his hair and is followed up by several escalated snafus that would make Steve Urkel look like an Olympic Gymnast. When he tries to talk to his parents (Steve Carrell and Jennifer Garner) about the experiencing the worst day he could imagine, he finds little sympathy at best. Believing he might be the only one experiencing such rotten luck, he soon begins to see he is not alone as the other members of his family fall victim to the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.
The official release in theaters is October 10th.

How do you adapt a children's book into something that parents will look forward to seeing as much as their kids? It doesn't hurt to have Steve Carell headline. That's the strategy Disney has taken with their upcoming live-action adaptation of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. In the video above, Carell not only introduces the trailer, but also gets up to all kinds of hijinks within it, capped off by chasing a kangaroo through the suburbs while wearing a pirate shirt. Why not? Yahoo revealed the first trailer for Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. Adapted from Judith Viorst's long-loved children's book, the film focuses on Alexander, an 11-year-old-boy who suffers through the ultimate bad day. Then, he sees his bad luck spread to his parents and siblings. But this family learns that if they stick together, they can make...

Growing up, one of my favorite bedtime stories was Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day – Judith Viorst’s cheery tale about those bad days you just can’t seem to beat. While the book has been around since 1972, the only screen option it received was a 1990 animated musical that aired on HBO, but that’s going to change this year thanks to Walt Disney Pictures. Directed by Miguel Arteta (Youth In Revolt/Ceder Rapids), Ed Oxenbould stars as down-on-his-luck Alexander in the upcoming live-action adaptation of one of my fondest childhood memories.
Released today is the first trailer for Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, and with it comes some surprises for fans of the source material. We meet Alexander, tripping over sprinklers and setting classrooms on fire, but we also meet his perfect family played by Dylan Minnette, Steve Carell, Jennifer Garner,...

Judith Viorst’s classic picture book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day tells the tale of a five-year-old ginger who endures 24 hours of nonstop catastrophe. He goes to sleep with gum in his mouth and wakes up with gum in his hair; he fails to snag an awesome cereal box prize; at school, he’s chastised for forgetting about the number 16. (These things all count as disasters when you’re five.)

If Disney thinks they are winning any friends in the blogging realm with the ten-word title for Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day they can guess again. No one wants to say that title let alone type it out, which is why I will be cutting and pasting it any time I have to refer to it leading up to the October 10 release date. The film is based on the award-winning children's book by Judith Viorst, and it follows young Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) through the mishaps of a terrible day for his family after he wishes they all would experience the same troubles he does. Directed by Miguel Arteta (), the film stars Steve Carell, Jennifer Garner, Dylan Minnette, Kerris Dorsey, Megan Mullally, Jennifer Coolidge and Bella Thorne. Watch the trailer below.

Looks like somebody has a case of the Mondays. The cherished children's book "Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" by Judith Viorst is headed to the big screen, and it looks like it will live up to the title in more ways than one. Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner lead this story that centers on the Brand family, who seem to have it all ... except for Alexander, who can't seem to get anything right. But that all changes one fateful day, when the Brand family find themselves experiencing everything that happens to Alexander on a daily basis and suddenly there are life lessons and Of Monsters And Men songs playing and everyone is bonding. And there is also a "Wreck-It Ralph" reference because ... Disney? That was kinda weird. "Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" opens on October 10th.

Anyone who has ever read Judith Viorst's 1972 children's book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" (illustrated by Ray Cruz) probably felt a pang of recognition and probably had their heart warmed considerably by the time the 32 pages were up. But there probably weren't all that many of you who thought, "Man this would be an amazing feature-length live action film." Well... it is now, and judging by the trailer (via Yahoo Movies), it's going to be a pretty cute movie too.
While the original book focused almost exclusively on Alexander (played in the movie by Ed Oxenbould), the movie encompasses the entire family as they experience one collectively lousy 24-hour period. This includes Alexander's parents (Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner), his older brother (Dylan Minnette) and his older sister (Kerris Dorsey). From the looks of the trailer, things get considerably wacky (is that a kangaroo?...

Today's MPAA ratings bulletin includes a lot of movies, but not a lot of major movies as there are really only three worth mentioning. First is Disney's horribly titled Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, based on the award-winning children's book by Judith Viorst and receiving a PG rating and then comes God's Pocket featuring one of Philip Seymour Hoffman's final performances. Then comes the one most are probably interested in, that being the PG-13 rating for X-Men: Days Of Future Past for all of its sequences of intense sci-fi violence and action, some suggestive material, nudity and language. Oh, nudity. Exciting. I think in this one Beast (Nicholas Hoult) paints a nude photo of Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) before the boat sinks.

“Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands – and then eat just one of the pieces.”

After the devastating events at the end of the mid-season finale, which saw the conflict between Rick’s group and the The Governor’s men end in a bloody conclusion, “After” attempts to deal with the fallout from that attack by focusing only on three of the many characters scattered to the wind. In what is a stark contrast to the beginning of season 4, we open with a beautiful ariel shot of the aftermath at the prison.

This fall, Steve Carell gets into family film mode with the adaptation of the beloved children's book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst. While the book focuses on a terrible day in the life of a kid, the film adaptation spreads the bad day to the entire family. Carell and Jennifer Garner lead the family as the mother and father, with relatively unknown child actor Ed Oxenbould taking the titular lead who wakes up with gum stuck in his hair. A first look photo shows the family in the middle of their horrible day as something seems to have gotten inside their house. Look! Here's the first photo from Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day: Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is directed by Miguel Arteta (Cedar Rapids) and written by first-time scribe Rob Lieber.
