Get Ratnered In Glorious QuickTime!! A New RUSH HOUR 3 Trailer Is Now Online!!
Merrick here…
It's so easy to launch into a frenzy of unapologetic Brett Ratner hatred in these posts. Instead, I'll just put that bug in your ear and move along to the trailer.
Looks about like what one would expect from a RUSH HOUR movie. LOVE the "you/me" gag - I'm a sucker for that kind of dopey comedy.
To me, this is the only genre to which Ratner is well suited...so I'm interested, although guiltily so.
CLICK ON JACKIE AND CHRIS TO SEE THEM WALK LIKE DELIVERANCE GUYS!!!

Oooh! Brett Ratt to direct the remake of "Deliverance"!
by jackpumpkinhead
Yeah! I mean, his "Pukeish Dragon" was such a great thriller. He's fit for the dark genre.
-
I know everybody here probably hates Ratner (don't know who you hate more, him or Michael Bay), but I enjoyed the first two Rush Hour movies, so I'll be there for this one. Personally, I think this series is quite fun and I hope this next installment lives up to that promise, 'cause these movies don't really promise you anything else...
-
I'M TOO OLD FOR THIS SHIT!
-
Not so sure about that.
-
..i mean look at his face. Is he in his 60ies ?
-
that I enjoyed it as much as I did when I saw it last night in front of "Spider-Man 3." Tucker and Chan go well together. This is one I'm looking forward to.
-
...this movie will make 100 times what Kiss Kiss Bang Bang made. That my friends is whats wring with this crazy world..
-
I love it when he acts. This movie looks great. I can't wait. Countdown to the Ratner-hate...
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and we're off... -
seventy years ago when Laurel and Hardy did the exact same thing.
-
You're Asian stop humiliating yourself. That last gag was hilarious.
-
Just like the new Die Hard kino :)
-
Same as Spider-man, and X-men. And hopefully Road Hogs.
-
that's what's so great about it. it's so easy! it's like getting a kitten to play with a string!
-
...got punched in da face!
But I will rent the DVD because I love Rush Hour 2 (Part 1 not that much) -
You got Rattner AND Polanski! Plus Chris Tucker and all this in Rush Hour 3!!!
-
I heard the reason they punched Polanski in film is becuase he had sex with Chan's ten year old niece. Roman, that rascal!
-
Feed EM'! Trailer does look ok though... I'm just expecting some laughs for 2hours and that's it... Nothing more, nothing less... Although isn't the release date for this closer to the Bourne movie?
-
Rush Hour isn't some movie about High art, you know what to expect when you walk into the theater. It's a martial arts/slapstick comedy and I've liked the last two films also. Tucker and Chan have great chemistry, more so then the Owen Wilson team up. so I'm looking forward to this movie. I likes to entertained.
-
Shanghai Noon/Knights 3 would be some much better.
http://tinyurl.com/pv8do -
Not great by any stretch, but too mediocre to get yourself worked up over. You've got some laughs, you've got Chan doing his aging best to give you some action, plus any Chris Tucker film that is not The Fifth Element tends to win me over because I'm always relieved to see he's not nearly nearly as annoying as he was playing that Ruby Rod guy. Fuck, he was aggravating in that film.
-
...yet will cash the cheques for doing another one of these. And what's with proudly proclaiming it's 'A Brett Ratner Film' over the title? Now I'll see it for sure!
-
And very funny to boot. I'm a sucker for Jackie Chan, i'm not afraid to admit i'll be there the first monday after opening weekend.
-
is the most over used black guy line in American cinema. *yawn* the you/me thing is funny, but not anymore funny than what you and your friends can make up on your own. the "who's on first" jokes are great, but nothings special. also, WHERES MY JACKIE CHAN v. JET LI movie!?
-
So they are again fighting Chinese bad guys now in Paris? Are Chinese people the news Nazi's? They seem to be the bad guys in everything. This trailer looked boring to me and just tired material. Tucker likes girls I understand and he still doesn't understand Chinese culture even though he's been partners with a Chinese agent for what years now? So whatever they couldn't even get Yao Ming for the big Chinese guy this is on my ignore list.
-
It's old territory in the AICN talkbacks, to be sure. But it bears repeating that this guy is a scum-sucking dirtbag. And I liked Chinatown just fine, but the truth is the truth.
-
I don't understand the Ratner hate... X3 wasn't his fault. He did an admirable job with the time he was given. Yes, he agreed to do it...but you can't hold that against him, it's how he makes a living. Anyway, this looks just as fun as the others. Can't wait to see it, they could have been on Rush hour 4 if Tucker wouldn't go into seclusion all the time. Sheesh!
-
But I'll catch it on video...
-
Fuck Brett Ratner
-
I know he's getting old but it looks like Chris Tucker is carrying his chinaman ass this time around. And that's not a good role for Tucker.
-
I cant get excited or worked up about this. It looks dull...will be dull and I definetely won't be paying to see it. But it's nice to know Jackie Chan is still alive.
-
Who the fuck does he think he is? From what I've heard of the Rush Hour shoots, he is a megalomaniac, who in alternate, just universe, would be Jackie Chan's sidekick. He's a one-trick pony, and the trick is being loud and obnoxious. Gimme another Shanghai movie any day.
-
In the blooper reel at the end. Someone somehow conned Don Cheadle into being in the second one and Tucker kept calling Jackie "Jackie". Finally Cheadle explodes, "His name is Lee, GODDAMMIT!" That was funny. The actual film, not so much.
-
It's all TRUE though. He BLOWS!
-
what the hell did Polansky and Max Von Sidow to deserve this? Anyway Chris Tucker have to be in more movies. And Jackie Chan... he is just a business man.
-
Oy, Prick.
Isn't that taxi driver the voice of Darth Maul? "The front door is open, AGAIN". -
Do it, do it.
-
White man holding him back etc...ruined it for me. Why does a black comedian need to do that, drives me nuts. Otherwise the movie was a complete blast and the first is still great. I don't care if they're considered bad movies.
-
but on par with any number of post Lethal Weapon half assed buddy comedies.. I really don't get why they're so popular.
-
Him and Bob Evans are supposedly really big fans of Ratner... I'm not kidding. I don't get it either. I don't know what they see in that movie.
-
How cynical. They won't have my money. I'm really sad for Jackie, Max Von Sydow & Yvan Attal to be part of this shit.
-
Tucker looks bloated and bored. Chan looks old and decrepit. I'm somehow reminded of past paycheck films like Another 48 Hours and Stakeout 2. Pass.
-
And too much fucking wire work! I WANT HANDMADE STUNTS and a R-RATING. But I guess that's just a wish...
-
...for me it was the best in the series. And FUCK part 2! REAL HARD!!!
-
I know many disagree, but Ratner has consistently entertained me over the years. The first two Rush Hours are at the top of their genre, Red Dragon was a solid thriller, After the Sunset a decent enough heist flick, and X3 is probably the X-Men film I'll end up seeing the most. Looking forward to Rush Hour 3 and anything else he might have up his sleeve. "You're Asian, stop humiliating yourself!"
-
was better than part 1.
-
Was NOT a good movie. It had some decent moments, but it really failed to deliver. Sentinels... Phoenix... how could you possibly go wrong? Somehow they managed to. -_-
-
Yikes, I HATED before the sunset. Just a terrible movie. I tried and tried to like but ACK!
-
Why am I even here? Why did I enter my username and password and waste precious vital second of my life writing this sentence? I don't know. I just don't.
-
He does a Rush Hour movie with a big payday and then doesn't bother to work again until the next one. Check imdb if you don't believe me...in the last nine years, his only work has been the three Rush Hour movies. Somehow I just find this to be funny and admirable in some respect.
-
He knows that he is pure evil. Unlike Hitler, however, he doesn't feel the need to spread his moral contagion around.
-
Why all the hate? He's never gonna have a cult, but he's a perfectly fine, slick journeyman director. Not too many notches below Michael Bay. You should read his interview on CHUD, I think, wherein he talked about how baffling he found the inexplicable bashing he got from Harry despite the fact that Rat was always friendly and even flew Harry and his dad out to the MONEY TALKS premiere when Rat was flat broke. It seems hypocritical to me.
-
oh, i'm sorry. did i miss the movies you directed? hmm. oh yeah, you haven't directed any. this site needs to shut up on their ratner hatred. it's no fun to visit this site. so much petty, childish hatred. it's stupid. the man makes fun movies. and, he's got a great filmmaker in him, as well. red dragon was a great film. it's a much better film than manhunter. no matter what you clowns say. i've enjoyed every film the guy has done. i wish they hadn't taken the direction they did with x3. i really wish they hadn't. but, i enjoyed the film regardless. sometimes it seems like a bunch of wet blankets run this site. boo hoo! i don't like brett ratner! boo hoo! i don't like this! boo hoo! i don't like that! waaahhh! it's disgusting. grow a pair, and make yer own damn movies...
-
Yeah, I agree, and Oasis is better than the Beatles... Hydrox are better than Oreos. Buddy, there are fun movies out there, but Ratner isn't directing them. HE's a hack. And for some reference I love Michael Bay, and don't mind Paul W.S. Anderson if you want to know how I feel about controversial "Fun" Directors.
-
Why is he sullying his good name staring in this tripe? Twilight Samurai was a masterstroke of cinematic genius in my humble opinion. Now this? Don't say gotta eat. Yes he's done some tripe but this is the epitome of loose. He's still a superpimp in my book though. Everyone stumbles.....
-
Of that there's no doubt. I think the Rush Hour films are enjoyable. Not the kind of thing you'd pay to see at the box office necessarily but fun if you're stuck on a 9 hour flight to Tokyo or something.
-
When he received a golden popcorn in the MTV movie awards some years ago he said something about the lack of help in, i think it was africa, and everybody in the theatre went into silence. Yeah he shut up the mouth of all this selfish people MTF that night. He took them back to earth. But i don't know if i want to see this film anyway.
-
...and really, who wants to see another 90 minutes of Chris Tucker.
-
He slapped an Asian for speaking French. I'm still laughing at that.
-
Racially toned/charged jokes just don't incite laughter from me. I find them to be offensive. Not, "Gasp, how could you say that?" - more like, "Couldn't you come up with something better/wittier?" Jokes like that are just tired. I understand they work for many people - hence a third film, but just not for me. And what's with all the Ratner hate? I don't love him or anything. I certainly don't blame X-Men 3 on him. He's nothing special, but he certainly isn't the trash that is Michael Bay. At least Ratner can diversify topically. To each his own.
-
Slow news day, huh?
-
a Rush Hour movie, no matter what. It just wasn't going to happen. So why would they have even clicked on the link??! Get a life! I think the trailer (what I saw before it crashed my browser twice) gives about what one would expect. Nothing brilliant, but at least nothing that makes one cringe too much, which is already saying something, these days. I'd rent this movie if I'm in the right mood.
-
spiderman made his suit? and why thomas haden church is so wasted. I think he is feeling busted beacause everybody is paying much atention to venom than his character. Better back to the indies man.
-
This film is years too late. Chris Tucker is highly overrated. Jackie Chan needs to stop pretending he's in his thirties and act his freaking age - Lau Kar-Leung doesn't pretend he's not a senior citizen, but it doesn't make him any less of a badass, he's still married to a gorgeous woman half his age, and he could still kill you with two hands and one leg tied behind his back. Old people are cool too, Jackie. Max Von Sydow is supposed to be French? Brett Ratner actually CAN direct his way out of a wet paper bag... but wet paper bags are extremely flimsy and tear easily, and I think a dry paper bag would be enough to stop him. This series has been terribly successful so far, but it looks to me like that other shoe's in free-fall and rapidly approaching the ground. To be fair, what little action is on display here looks to be an improvement over previous entries in the series. That won't be enough in this crowded summer. I just don't feel like anyone is going to care about this movie all that much. Then again, that's what I said about the first one.
-
I expect this to be about the same. Ratner isn't a great director, but he does well enough with this stuff. For the record, I don't blame him for X3. They brought him in to be the fall guy for that one. Fox is solely to blame for that fiasco.
-
and I don't blame Ratner for that either. He sucks from my snob POV (I dig Mark Lester's COMMANDO, Harlin's Cliffhanger or Woo's M:I-2, to let you know how snob I am) but Rush Hour is nowhere on par with glorious old buddy movies. Lethal Weapons series was 100 times better, even the 4th geriatric instalment.
-
Didn't they already do this joke in part 2?
-
He isn't in Rush Hour 3.
-
That looked REALLY Star Wars to me...
-
Half-way through the trailer and what do we have?
French jokes? CHECK
Body cavity search joke? CHECK
Something hitting someone in the groin? CHECK
Lowest. Common. Denominator.
Blah. -
Fair enough, you didn't like it. I admit that's it's the weakest of the bunch (that I've seen) but it didn't bother me at all. A forgettable film but I was entertained while it lasted.
-
the Rush Hour movies, 2 especially, make me feel goooooooooooood.
-
every movie can't be a "geekgasm" display of total "genius". keep that in mind next time you are rubbing your sweaty ball sack on an issue of Preacher.
-
Love to see him in front of the camera again. A Pure Formality and The Tenant have got to be two of my favorite movies ever. I'll see this just because he's in it.
-
I've liked the Rush Hour movies. From a technical standpoint they're fairly well done. No, they're not groundbreaking but then they're not suppose to be. I think those of you bursting a forehead vein screaming how much Ratner sucks are expending unneccesary energy. Go find something more serious to complain about.
-
!...
-
Huh?
-
... I'd fuck her!
-
Fuck Ratner!
-
Sad to think that he won't be able to do his thing much longer. :o(
-
... where you been man?
-
And we all know how funny that was
-
The Rush Hour films are okay, just okay. I really prefer the humor of the Shanghai Noon series. The fights are far more elaborate and entertaining, Owen Wilson is a less hostile and racist foil to Jackie Chan, and I love the worlds they've created in those movies, rather than "just another modern cop movie". Shanghai Dawn, please!
-
No wonder Chris Tucker's doing "Friday 4" after this!
-
AAh Paris. Lido dancers, stupid cops, dumb taxi drivers. Go stereotypes, go. Ratner, tu n'es qu'une merde.
Support real cinema. Boycott this crap. -
Less necessary than BC3.
-
that's funnier than this trailer.

It sucks that AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS cratered ultra badly
by harry weinstein
That was the best thing he's done in ages - I'd be there in a heartbeat for a sequel to that one. Way underrated movie. Ten Tigers of Canton are the shit. The slapstick stuff is vintage Jackie. Karen Mok has an ass you just want to cbew on and she speaks flawless English. Arnold. There's only a handful of moderately annoying moments, and they're over quickly. Tbe end fight delivers the goods and is surprisingly rough for a PG Disney movie. Tbe obligatory cameos are mostly pretty cool, with one or two being absolutely fucking brilliant. Ken Lo (the dude with the legwork from DRUNKEN MASTER II) is in here, for Christ's sake. Walt would have liked it. See it if you haven't yet.
-
Just a Quicktime logo with a question mark over it. It was all cool and mysterious the first time they used that but it's starting to get old in my opinion.
-
I dunno, because I am definitely running Quicktime 7 so it should play but it doesn't. Whatever, like everything else these days you can easily find this trailer on YouTube, which is where I watched it.
-
i like making up my own mind what i like, and not letting some 'continuity freaks of the comic world' to determine it for me,thank you....
-
Cause I can't play it....player won't update right.
-
...and Oui are all together...Goo Goo Ga Joob!!!
-
I, as well as a few others that have posted on here, don't get why you hate Brett Ratner so much. You think he's the reason they're not doing an X4 movie? Get over yourself people! After the Sunset was bad, but I blame the script and not the director. He's good at his job. Give him a decent script and he can get the job done. Are you expecting an academy award from him?
-
He is, isn't he? And I thought it was quite a while ago - has this been in production that long?
-
He was just born looking like he's 80. He's always been that way.
