    Vince Vaughn & Owen Wilson ARE Interns

    Wow it has been seven years since Wedding Crashers, hasn't it?

    Wouldn't have believed it myself if it wasn’t for doing quick math and looking in the mirror to see those extra rolls under my eyes and fat on my ass. I was getting ready for University that came out and turned into one of the smash hits of 2005, back during that magical summer where you had to talk your friends into seeing Batman Begins, we were all proclaiming how Revenge of the Sith was the best Star Wars since Empire (How silly were we!) and Tom Cruise was just starting to creep everyone out with his religion.

    Per Vulture, 20th Century wants Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson to reunite (Surprising to think there hasn't been a Wedding Crashers reunion yet!) in the comedy Interns for helmer Shawn Levy:

    "Vaughn and Wilson will play forty-ish company guys who both get laid off in a downsizing. Convinced they’ve gone about managing their careers entirely wrong, they resolve to become interns at a Google-like dotcom and start anew. Suddenly, the two old chums are competing against wily, fresh-faced 22 year olds for advancement."

    It's funny...and topical too! Not the biggest Levy fan in the world (I might have been of the few Internet movie-nerds who didn't like Real Steel) and Vaughn and Owen are two comedians whose shtick has gotten old over the course of those seven years and a slew of bad comedies. Right after Wedding Crashers, I'd be all for Interns. These days, I'm weary.
