I’m dedicating this post to the recent movie Ted.
Here’s a short synopsis from imdb:
When he was eight years old, John Bennett, friendless and thus lonely, wished that his only friend, Ted his teddy bear who had a voice recorded message “I love you”, would love him forever. John got his wish as Ted miraculously came to life, which garnered Ted his proverbial fifteen minutes of fame. Twenty-seven years later, John and Ted have remained best friends. Although physically the same, Ted now has grown-up urges, as vulgar, perverted and immature as they be.
I haven’t seen it yet but I plan to very soon. I’m pretty sure I’m going to like it. The reviews are good, it gets a 7.2/10 rating on imdb and of course it never hurts to have Mila Kunis around for some eye candy. Once I’ve seen it I’ll let you guys know what I think.
I take umbrance with one reviewer though:
“The acceptance and interaction of everyone with a living teddy-bear adds to the simple joy of this film, and you find yourself happy to watch and not question why nobody is fazed by this.”
Evidently some people are still stupid enough to presume that Teddy Bears are not real. Talk about ignorant!

*Note: There appears to be a mistake in the credits on imdb as it states that Seth MacFarlane does the voice of Ted. Obviously a typo because why would Ted need somebody else to do his voice for him?
