WHEN IT COMES TO COMEDY… NO GAME NO FOWL

Comedic Icons Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson Star in the Hilarious Outdoor Adventure Coming to Blu-ray and DVD January 31!

Summary: Let the fowl play begin! Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment presents the story of a competitive trio who quickly turn a simple quest into the ultimate competition when THE BIG YEAR spreads its wings on Blu-ray and DVD January 31.

Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson portray three men from very different walks of life, facing a mid-life crisis, a work-life crisis and a no-life crisis. Looking to shake up their routine lives, three amateur bird watchers compete to become the ultimate "birder" by spotting the greatest number of species within a single calendar year. But the friendly rivalry soon turns into a hilariously complicated cross-country adventure as each man begins to realize that the quest for success comes at a price — and that's not chicken feed!

Directed by David Frankel (The Devil Wears Prada, Marley & Me) and featuring outrageous supporting performances from Joel McHale (“Community”), Jim Parsons (“The Big Bang Theory”), Angelica Huston (50/50), Dianne Wiest (“In Treatment”),Brian Dennehy (The Next Three Days), Rashida Jones (“Parks and Recreation”), Kevin Pollak (Red State) and Anthony Anderson (Scream 4).

THE BIG YEAR Blu-ray is loaded with special features including the theatrical and extended editions of the film, over 40 minutes of deleted scenes and the featurette “The Big Migration.”

Who would think a film on birdwatchers could be so comical? In this cutthroat competition Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson have just the right mix to keep you giggling. The goal of The Big Year is traveling North America, competing to spot the greatest number of bird species.

I luv the characters Owen Wilson portrays in several films, he adds that "irritating person" that you're bound to run across in-real-life, and once again I would luv to punch his arrogant the Big Year reigning winner of 732 bird sightings character, Kenny Bostick. LOL.

Steve Martin plays Stu Preissler.. a successful businessman, going through a mid-life crisis, finally makes this year the one to win the elite birdwatching competition.

Jack Black as Brad Harris doesn't really have the funds to participate. Although he can recognize most birds by their sound is a novice in the power-play of winning in the beginning. However, does have a loving mother who supports him and makes it possible for him to contend for the title.

Grab the popcorn and enjoy this comical fluff along with the beautiful scenery.
