The dialog in the first 15 minutes of the film references somebody pulling, breaking or sticking something out of, into, or up in someones ass at least 5 times. Another movie with horrible editing and script writing counting on a big named star and a moronic public to pull in box office receipts.

This looks like it’s going to be a good, funny flick. The flying reminded of Ralph Hinckly in the Greatest American Hero tv show from the 80′s.

Now THAT would be a fun movie!!

Love the look! Will Smith has yet to make a truly bad movie, so I’m think this movie will be 2008 equivalent to Men in Black.

If only there was a writers strike during the Star Wars prequels and Lord of the Rings, so that their shooting schedule wouldn’t have been plagued by rewrites.

Oh! I thought you were lumping those together, not indicating wild swings in quality.

Vic,

Equivalent? NOOOOO!!!

Certainly not as equivalent, I was only using those movies to point out that Mr. Goldsman has a rather inconsistent level of output in regards to the quality of his work. i.e. – the script could go either way – and he’s the most prominent name on the list of writers.

Too many trailers is indeed usually a bad sign, but you’re listing “A Beautiful Mind” as equivalent to “Batman & Robin”?

The Good: Trailer does its job. Looks very entertaining if handled right. If its representative of the whole, could be the sleeper hit of 2008. The one nobody saw coming.

The Bad: Five writers are given credit for the movie , with the best of them (Akiva Goldsman) having a decidedly uneven record (having involvement with both “Batman & Robin” and “A Beautiful Mind”).

Color me cautiously optimistic.

And yes, the whale bit put me into hysterics

Yeah, something better than “My Super Ex-Girlfriend” would be nice.

Heheh, That looks pretty cool. I agree on the flight, it’s like yeah, I’m flying, big deal. I’m glad to see a bit of a different take on Super Heroes. Don’t get me wrong, I love all the serious Super Hero movies too, Hell I can barely contain myself waiting for Iron Man, but it’s nice to see a twist on the Super Hero movie too.

Heath, I agree with you. Once again, we have a concept that may work with Smith in the role that would be a guaranteed bomb with the wrong actor.

This looks hilarious! That smile he flashes, ugh! Another Will Smith winner!!

ps-The whale bit was funny, but watching him fly was really funny. He’s just like, who cares, no grace. Lot of crazy destruction, too.

I saw the regular I Am Legend and it didn’t play in front of that either. I like the way it looks. Doesn’t mean there isn’t a high probability it will suck, but I’m optimistic.

Huh.

That…doesn’t look very good at all, actually.

Then again, neither did Bruce Almighty.
