New 'Hot Tub Time Machine' trailer not too funny

DateFriday, December 18, 2009 at 5:58PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Here is the second trailer for Steve Pink's new comedy "Hot Tub Time Machine," and while the basic concept sounds funny, this preview doesn't look that hilarious at all. See for yourself after the jump.

This comedy follows a group of childish adults who jump into a hot tub and are transported back in time, to when they were much younger. Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, Clark Duke and Chevy Chase co-star.

The film is set to open March 19, 2010. I remember I saw some awful comedies in March this year, and I can only hope I won't have to experience the same agony again next year. Things are not looking good.

Anyway, jump into this trailer and let me know what you think below. I agree one or two jokes in this trailer made me laugh, but jokes about Facebook or Twitter really don't work for me anymore at all...

Movie Review: “2012”

DateSaturday, November 14, 2009 at 12:46AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra

Seen on: November 13, 2009

The players: Director: Roland Emmerich, Writers: Roland Emmerich, Harald Kloser, Cast: John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt

Facts of interest: None, really.

The plot: As the world comes to an end in the year 2012, a group of brave people try to survive the cataclysms surrounding them. 

Our thoughts: Roland Emmerich’s latest apocalyptic big-screen spectacle works best as a comedy. The film boasts a number of excellent laughs, and that’s the main reason I found it moderately enjoyable. Other than that, it’s nothing more than yet another utterly ridiculous, overblown sci-fi action piece about the end of the world.

No, you won't get to see any big action or destruction in this short clip, but you get a funny Woody Harrelson telling and showing Cusack's character he knows the big apocalypse is coming for sure.

Scene from 2012

John Cusack is the best driver and luckiest bastard you'll ever get to see on the big screen. I mean, this guy drives a limo across Los Angeles as the entire city is being destroyed. Don't believe me? See below!

A five-minute clip from Roland Emmerich's upcoming apocalyptic action flick "2012" debuted on TV today, and the clip is now online. It's incredibly ridiculous, folks, but somehow, it's also somewhat entertaining.

Three new posters for Emmerich's '2012'

DateThursday, August 27, 2009 at 7:06PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Roland Emmerich is putting an end to the world yet again in "2012," his latest apocalyptic action spectacle that we'll get to see in theaters Nov. 13, 2009. Just yesterday we got a look at a new Japanese trailer with plenty of new footage from the film, and today, I've found three new posters via Yahoo!

As you can see after the jump, they show an awful amount of destruction. Bye bye Los Angeles, bye bye White House and see ya Rio de Janeiro. As usual, keep in mind that fancy posters and spectacular trailers don't mean we're in for a fantastic Emmerich film. His couple of previous ones kind of sucked.
