    Another Universal clusterf-ck ala Battleship. Basically 'Constantine' meet 'Men in Black'. The Fast and Furious franchise is keeping this company relevant. Comcast sucks at everything.

    Read the short synopsis last year and was excited... not so much after this trailer.

    I'll probably still go and see it anyway. Looks like a easy to digest flick to watch with the gf. Go in and pretend we're 11 years old.

    This generations MIB eh....typical Hollywood recycling old ideas. Don't think Reynolds has Will Smiths charisma though.

    For some reason I thought this would be darker... something like Dylan Dog: Dead of Night.

    Should have known after seeing Ryan Reynold's name.

    I'll give anything that Jeff Bridges does a shot. That trailer IS all over the place though...weird.

    Have not read the comic, but when the movie was announced I thought it sounded interesting. But it just feels so much like MIB in look and tone.


    It is funny that Jeff Bridges is just basically doing his character from True Grit.

    His "Rooster Cogburn" came to mind almost immediately for me.

    That looks awful. How will you guys be able to sit through that?
