this still isn't out?
-
When is this coming out? 2011?
-
What are we at now? Since, I think it's gone back and forth several hundred times.
-
I thought this was about cancer.
Me confused. -
I'll check it out
-
...um... uh...
Awful
I'm sorry Harry, that just looks freaking awful. -
was a hit more than ten years ago.
sure i bought it. can't remember who it was though.
-
Should be sometime in late 2011/ early 2012, right?
-
...You've lost some weight, Harry. Congrats!
-
when i saw Zack and Miri, and when this part came on, i was like.."Oh Fuck! It's the motherfucker from the AICN gifs!"
-
I'll wait for the release to decide if I wanna see it but... damn.
-
comes a movie nobody is ever going to see.
PS: is it true that Mori's character had to be edited because he was banned from the fake ranch? -
But no release date!
-
though funny in a dopey kind of way, but that's okay, it's supposed to be silly-dopey
-
It's a comedy right? Wow... I'm a huge OT and AICN fanatic but that looked so tame and unfunny I want to gouge my eyes out from watching it. Didn't Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back cover similar ground with a lot more wit and laughs? And in the end, joke's on them as they're on a quest to see.... The Phantom Menace. Bwahah.
-
Lookin' good, boss-man. Guess the surgery paid off.
-
Need I say more? :)
-
This has been in post production limbo for so long I was wondering if it would ever see the light of day?!
I just noticed on the wiki page for the film that Kevin Spacey is a Producer? That seems like an odd team. -
This looks awesome. I would not have thought it, but it looks awesome. Laugh free? What's wrong with you clowns?
-
That looked truly awful, in fact adding the Big C back IN may give it some comedic value. Comedic as in funny something you would have expected this to be. This gets a release and yet Trick 'r Treat is treated like the Pedo Uncle at Christmas sat all alone in the other room whilst everyone else tucks into the turkey.
-
Who knows- after that surgery he just might be
-
That's all I'm saying. Worth it just to see Harry kickin' ass.
-
...looked like every other teen-sex-quest-comedy.
It look really, really, really tedious.
Seriously.
Throwing these guys into Star Wars referenced comedy gags (punch "hyperspace", the trash compactor) is pretty uninspired comedy.
And tedious.
Did I mention that? -
Hell yes. This looks awesome and the Harry Knowles part had me cracking up. Jugdish, harry will be that thin soon enough. Have you seen his myspace Halloween picture? The guy is looking good.
-
That's not Harry. It's Ethan Suplee playing him. Granted, it's a pretty good likeness, but I thought it was pretty obvious.
-
and it got a surprisingly good response from the audience. Laughing all the way through
-
Merrick, show me on the doll where he touched you.
-
just wanted to say something.
-
Gawd- she is redunk. Thing is, I am not a douche bag nerd and still think she is redunk...
-
Now...not so much
-
I'm not kidding.
-
You look so much better. Keep it going.
-
Surely though, with Knowles kicking ass, its TBs who are MEANT to be the target audience for this one. Reading some of the comments here, all I can say is OUCH...
-
He may be thinner but he's still got that baboon ass smeared all over what should be a human face. Ain't no surgery what gonna fix dat. Maybe a pair of shears and a blowtorch.
-
That was a charicature of Harry? Aha! Bravo, man. You've officially "made it" in show business now that an actor has played you in a big studio picture. Congrats.
This could be pretty funny, though I'm a wee bit tired of all things Star Wars. I need a break from Lucasfilm chicanery, even if it makes fun of fanboys.
I wish the film well, though. -
WT everlovin' F???
-
Lots of in-site hype and... DVD release one month later since, you know, no one in the real world cared.
-
Harry, did you have to stop shooting every 5 seconds to catch your breath?
-
Does it have cancer or not?
-
just saying.
-
i didn't know you two were related.
-
Great cast too. They did forget to mention Kristen Bell, but I don't see what the hate is all about. Except maybe for Lucas and the cancer issue.
-
i cant believe how hypocritical and dumb people are on this site sometimes.
-
This movie would be perfect... load the van with booze, cheetoes, some babes and have a good time.
-
like, maybe someday watch part of it on Comedy Central or something
-
Nerdy fanboys scoring with hot chicks by using quotes from Star Wars. Oh yeah, that could happen.

I swear, some of these talkbackers have no concept of fun
by richard cranium
It's almost exhausting sifting through some of the pompousity on here. Not every movie is going to be Lawrence of Arabia, OK?
-
this is a movie for us...dont care if it doesnt make a dime...im gonna see it in the theaters 10x and then buy the dvd...and fuck all haters
-
about Revenge of the Nerds? I bet you did. "Oh thank you jeebus, finally a movie for USSSS!"
-
When Seth Rogan was doing his publicity blitz for Zack and Miri someone (from Latino Review, I believe) was talking about seeing the final cut. Rogan asked if the cancer was in it, and he said yeah, so I think it might be.
-
i mean DAMN, what an ugly human being! that chink bitch only married him for his money.
-
Although it doesn't bother me that people love the entire Star Wars saga, what does bother me is how much people obsess over it and view if as some kind of defining moment for our generation. And that saddens me. Years from now when our grand children ask us what we did during the war, we'll think they meant Star Wars and say "I stood in line for 8 hours".
-
...when people mentioned cancer before, I honestly thought it was just a new "Raped My Childhood"-style talkback hyperbole. As in: "Cancer is funnier than ______".
-
after the clone wars movie, this is so much what i needed. it looks awesome and made me feel giddy about star wars again. bring it to a theater close to me soooooon

No mention of "Sarah Marshall" in the cast list at the end?
by noodleshahn
Was Kristen Bell not of age when she made this movie? I can't figure out why else she wouldn't be advertised save for that one shot in the garbage masher.

Harry's cute! WTF are you talking about? I want the plush doll!
by orionsangels
-
cause it's like teasing five year old kid with candies, and then throw them into a fuckin safe guarded by stormtroopers.
Why the fuck tease pepole like that ? -
because they don't mention ANY of the main cast. The list of people only includes cameos. Pay attention. Jesus.
-
but that's a stupid way to do it. Are you saying "That guy from Tropic Thunder" is a better sales pitch than "Sarah Marshall"? Either mention SM or have KB, I don't know, say a line or show a glimpse of her in the bikini. The purpose of a trailer is to sell the movie not enforce a shortsighted self-inflicted roll call rule.
-
Used to date one of the producers. Maybe their breakup wasn't very amicable and she has refused to let her name be used to promote the film. Just guessing.
-
I detected a bit condescension in your comment and as a result I let my frustration get the better of me. I didn't mean to swear at you and I am sorry.
-
the Force is string with this one...for some reason. I know it looked trite and exactly like a movie full of easy Star Wars references and sex jokes, but, well, isn't that exactly what most SW nerds and movie geeks really do with most of their spare time. Is it just me? That better not be crickets I'm hearing. (Fuck, I think it's crickets.) Anyway, why should it be "bad" to potentially enjoy a trailer full of star wars and sex jokes? This film isn't trying to be The Shawshank Redemption.
-
where is that guy, anyway?
-
I *have* to see this.
-
I just hope when this does come out, us fanboys give it the beating it will no doubt deserve. If a trailer for a comedy doesn't make me laugh, I can't see how the movie itself will. Bah.
-
this look so fuckin hilarious... and none of my friends will get 90% of it. i dont even care, the trailer itself was awsome.
-
Will always be his cameo in Tx Chainsaw Massacre. That was the part he was born to play and how he should always be seen. No actor can deliver a performance better than that.

But will this film be as good as Indiana Jones and the Kingdom o
by jarjar25
Man, I thought that film was pretty good!!!
-
Leave them kids alone! :-)
-
That looked hysterical. I must be out of touch because I think that looks great. Funny premise. I don't understand the soulless folk above who don't find it funny. Hmmm.
-
The cast call out at the end should have included "and a look alike of that guy who runs that cool website"
-
This site is full of the most backwards people.
i'm out. -
hahahahahahaha
-
After all the fear and stories I'd heard, I thought the trailer was great. The movie can still end up sucking, but why so much hate around here? I actually thought the trash compactor scene was genuinely funny. I'm guessing that if it's bad in the end, that the jokes we just saw are it for the movie. Keeping fingers crossed and expectations low. All you haters need to summon all your hatred for Episode 1 and let it flow through you and go and watch this out of revenge.
-
Far superior independent comedy with proven writing...

( Mystery Team... ) -
Was it something that used to be in the movie and got removed?
-
What do you mean by that?And if you ask me, that looks slightly dumber than Fanboys. I wouldn't really mind watching other. Both look like some dumb fun, but that link is a portal to a slightly less enteraining trailer. Intriguing, but not very creative at all. Like did that strong kid just punch the other guy? for no reason? Really?
-
I have to plead to the filmmakers of my generation to let Star Wars go. We're now in the positions of power and creativity to make our own films. Every film that comes down the pike now doesn't have to reference Star Wars. It's sadly coming across as very myopic.
-
C'mon folks, lighten up, it looks like a lot of the ingeek references are going to be pretty fun.
-
I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast!You eat pieces of shit for breakfast? Gross!-makes finger into gun shape- Shootah!!!

Who cares when AVATAR is fucking our eyeballs in 2009?
by motoko kusanagi
nobody
-
and Denny Crane! Awesome.
This shoots straight to my must-see list. -
best cameos ever. or maybe. as the guy above says, better than i expected. looks good. love the view askewevers stuff. I don't think that is how you spell it. night all
-
It was not funny in any sense. Saying a line from Star Wars is not a joke, and that's what make sup most of the "jokes" in the movie.
-
Bringin’ Da Smackdown!
-
"My Dog Skip" was sad.
-
whats with the love for this project?!?!
-
Mark Brazill told Judd Apatow to "get cancer", that's why Apatow fears it.
-
Sometimes fanboys need smacked up.
-
Looks like a fun ride to me. I'm there.
-
For a grand total of maybe 2 minutes. Classic cinema though.
-
really, really awful.
-
So glad we finally get this movie as it was intended to be seen. Fuck you naysayers. It looks Badass.
-
My friend's niece plays the girl who employs the Mystery Team to solve the mystery of her parent's murder. MT looks awesome but it's comparing apples and oranges. The premise of Fanboys s TOTALLY different. Fanboys is more of a Roadtrip Geekfest whreas Mystery Team is a Geeky...uh...Mystery. They both look great. ;)
-
What I meant is that Derrick Comedy has had 2 dozen sketches do well on the internet for a couple of years now, so one can guess the writing for their film will be on par with that.
( Not to mention one of the members is a writer for 30 rock )
I'm not saying they're pure comedy gold, but the fanboys guys haven't shown us anything prior to this, so in comparison, they're "proven" writers to me :)
The "Girls are not to be trusted" sketch from Derrick Comedy made me do a spit take the first time I saw it.
-
Yes, I didn't mean to imply that Roadtrip should compete with Mystery Team I probably should have said "go see this too" rather than "instead of"
That rocks that your neice is the girl who asks them to solve her parent's murder. She delivered those lines perfectly awesome. I laughed so hard when I saw the look on her face.
I just can't get enough of The Derrick Comedy guys. They're so young and have pulled off some brilliant sketches. The writingand the timing have been there since their beginning, they only need some prodcution tweaks and budget for locations, props, etc, and it looks like they got that finally. They're the next generation "Kids In The Hall" in my book.
-
Sometimes I despair of some of you sanctimonious fuckers on here who have to trash every thing before you've even seen it.
