oh thank god. i saw the first trailer and it was the most unfunny, poorly cut piece of by the numbers crap id seen in years, id written the movie off as a rental. this?, this is funny. back to a theatre view i think.

[bassman]

much, much, MUCH better than the first green band trailer. Not a huge fan of Morgan's style, but Willis seems to be in good form and the jokes were pretty good.

The green bander wasn't amazing, for sure ... although I did end up really liking the "no, no, no, no, hell no, no!" thing after Gary and Brian kept doing it on one of their recent podcasts. That red bander though was fucking hilarious! I was gonna see it in the cinema anyway, but now I'm really stoked to go see it. The bit with Bruce Willis drawing a window dick on the glass by that dude's mouth was brilliant, it's odd though (in a good way) to see Willis getting some dirty-minded comedy to play with.

Damn it, I can't get this to play for me. From what I've read it sounds like a good premise, though.

Damn it, I can't get this to play for me. From what I've read it sounds like a good premise, though. tracy morgan pins a suspect to a one way mirror, on the other side bruce willis draws a cock on the glass going in his mouth. a 10 year old kicks tracy morgan in the junk, not origional right?, then whilst hes doubled over he punches the kid in the junk. those two polarising facts should make you fall into the d-bag "thats offensive" category or the "thats rad" category. YOU be the judge.

of all the jokes, I think "His wife says he's all foreskin" had me laughing the most....

REVIEW FROM VILLAGE VOICE: http://www.villagevoice.com/2010-02-...st-might-work/

The green bander wasn't amazing, for sure ... although I did end up really liking the "no, no, no, no, hell no, no!" thing after Gary and Brian kept doing it on one of their recent podcasts. The bit with Bruce Willis drawing a window dick on the glass by that dude's mouth was brilliant, it's odd though (in a good way) to see Willis getting some dirty-minded comedy to play with. The script may not have been written by Smith, but he definitely put some of his stuff in there. There's a part when Morgan is interrogating a suspect and he's screaming out lines from other movies and Willis is naming them as he's doing it... at one point, he says the "Yippie kai-yay..." line from Die Hard, and they cut to Willis who says "never seen that one.." I hope this pushes Smith over his 30mil box office "slump" so-to-speak. Not to mention, I'm DYING for him to film Red State! Dammit, that better be his next flick or I'm gonna be pissed.

His next flick is "Hit Somebody" with Seann William Scott in the lead role. Smith is figuring out how to fund Red State, as the funding he had set up fell through, they've been researching how to fund it in a 'fan donation' way and what not, but it's still hanging in there to be made eventually, but naturally "Hit Somebody" will get made far easily, so that's his next one ... it's a hockey movie too. Smith revealed exclusively to NHL.com that Seann William Scott, who worked with Smith on “Cop Out,” will play Buddy, the title character in “Hit Somebody.” The script, based on a Warren Zevon song with lyrics by acclaimed writer Mitch Albom, is a story of a hockey enforcer who strives to score just one goal in a hockey game. “Seann, for me, was the key into the character,” Smith told NHL.com. “I had all the elements in place, and the one thing I was missing was the personality. Generally I like to write to a voice, but I didn’t know who that voice was or what that voice could be. And then after spending all the time with Seann on this movie, he’s pitch perfect. He is that guy. “This dude has something in him that you can just see hangs so well on Buddy. He’s got some pain that’s going to work out well. More importantly he has so much love in his heart. Seann Scott is such an ebullient, happy person who’s just happy to be there. And on (“Cop Out”) you could see it. On our set the guy is just so delighted to be working, to be making people laugh. But he’s always dismissed as Stifler. … This is his chance to shine.” From NewsAskew

His next flick is "Hit Somebody" with Seann William Scott in the lead role. Goddammit! Smith is figuring out how to fund Red State, as the funding he had set up fell through, they've been researching how to fund it in a 'fan donation' way and what not, but it's still hanging in there to be made eventually, but naturally "Hit Somebody" will get made far easily, so that's his next one Y'know, I heard about this 'fan funding' of Red State, however, Smith just posted on Twitter a few days ago that, and I quote, "Red State WILL get made, and it will not need fan funding to do so." Wonder if that means he finally found an investor? I hope so, 'cause I'm VERY intrigued with the premise (what little i've heard). That, and when he presented it to the Weinstens, apparently they liked it, but "passed" on it. Hmmm... very interesting.

[MinionZombie]

Indeed on the "very interesting". We know so little about it, but Smith fans are so up for Red State. I remember when it was either gonna be that or Zack & Miri which would follow Clerks 2, was disappointed that Red State didn't come up straight away - simply to see Smith make a horror movie, which would be really cool to see - but even still I dig what he puts out there. So yeah, hopefully he's found funding for RS then, if that "Tweet" is anything to go by.

[LouCipherr]

Now, do you think "Red State" is going to be straight-up horror, or more along the lines of a psychological thriller? He hasn't really let on to much about it, but what we have heard about it, it sounds very, very interesting. I can't picture Smith doing a blood-and-guts horror flick, but then again, I never expected an action movie out of him either, so.... who knows. Interesting indeed.
