News: Trailer round-up

                Not much news worth mentioning, so how’s about a quick roundup of some crappy-looking new trailers? Sure, who wouldn’t want that for their Wednesday evening? Stay inside, avoid the lovely weather and park yourself down in front of the computer for some gibberish. The good life.  

                Well, let’s start with the new trailer for the Farrelly brothers take on “The Three Stooges.”

                The first one was wholly unimpressive and it’s good to see the lads are consistent. This new trailer is also very unimpressive.

                There’s loads of slapstick violence that just somehow lacks the charm of the original. Also, this new trailer seems to have swapped Sofia Vergera in for Kate Upton. I guess depending on your preference, that’s either a good thing. Kind of a push really.

                Oh well, it looks awful so let’s all not see it.

                And then we’ve got the red band “Piranha 3DD” trailer. This is pretty much the exact same thing as the first trailer for “Piranha 3DD” except it features a lot of… hmm… not sure if I’m allowed to say this word on the internet, but I’ll try… boobies.

                Hopefully that word didn’t get censored. As of now, a SWAT team hasn’t come crashing in through my window which means Rick Santorum isn’t president yet and the internet is still a bastion of freedom and immorality. Like god intended.

                Anyway, I’ve been over my feelings on this movie. Not all that interested anymore. But hey, can you believe “The Dark Knight Rises” comes out this year? I know! So awesome!

                Here’s the trailer for that.

News: Finally a 'Stooges' trailer

Ladies and gentlemen, “The Three Stooges” (or as my grandpa called ’em The Stoogees) journey to the big screen is almost complete. A journey so epic, if you listen closely you can almost hear Larry, Moe and Curly telling Frodo to suck it.           

Anyway, the first trailer for the Farrelly Brothers long-gestating big screen adaptation of the beloved TV series and shorts finally debuted. My reaction? Whole lotta meh.

I’m a huge Stooges fan, have been since I was a kid. When I was younger, I used to sneak out of bed and watch them on TV with my grandpa late in to the night. Those were great times. So, I hold the Stooges as sacred.

The trailer isn’t awful, the three leads--- Sean Hayes, Chris Diamantopoulos and Will Sasso--- do fine impressions of their characters. The Stooges trademark slapstick is handled well and is on full display. Problem is: I really can’t stand the Farrelly and their not-so-unique brand of irreverent comedy.

I’d like to have seen a more talented director take the reins on this project. Maybe even shoot in black and white for old time’s sake. Instead, the Farrelly’s mentality seeps in and we get nuns in bikinis. I hate you Farrelly’s. For this and for “Shallow Hal.”

You both suck.
