Sorry but Simon Pegg AND Gillian Anderson are in it.I'm first in the queue.Especially considering he used to have a major thing for Scully to the point where he wrote that his character in 'Spaced' jerks off over her.Heh heh.
It still looks a hundred times better than Speed racer or Indy 4.Yes, it does.

Balls. From the picture it looks like David Carradine and the adventures of a Shaolin Monk as he navigates the world of corporate media armed only with his skill in kung fu...

alas.

They made a movie out of Devil Wears Prada and out of Alienate People. How come they never made a movie out of the best magazine book of them all: Slab Rat?

@KarenUhOh: ...to be parlayed into Gessen Vs. Geffen on the Fox News Channel. Each episode will feature a debate on the merits of the Dewey Decimal System's according to Gawker readers vs. whether or not foaming your entire house in full view of your less fortunate neighbors to help protect it from California wildfires is a good idea. It will be "Scintillating TV!" (Earl Dittman, Wireless Magazines), "Like Riding A Roller Coaster Naked!" (Richard Roeper), and "Fucking Awesome! This is Must-See Cable TV!" (The Sacramento Bee).

Periodically (maybe 7-10 times a day) I mourn the loss of silent pictures. Every bit of sound in this trailer--the sound effects at the beginning, the horribly cliched voice-over, the actual dialogue--is sonically unbearable.

OK fine then, but don't anybody try to steal my idea for a picture about an artsy-fartsy literary magazine, O'Douls. I'm calling it We Wish There Was Someone Left To Alienate. Pauly Shore to star as "Dave Eggheaders."

Well shit. Now I have to see it to find out if the chihuahua goes out the window or not. Good thing I'm a Jeff Bridges Devotee For Life, otherwise that would have been a huge burden.
