John Cusack Atones For 2012 With HOT TUB TIME MACHINE!!
Merrick here...
The film arrives March 19. The trailer comes to us via Yahoo (HERE).
This is directed by Steve Pink - he's the writer of HIGH FIDELITY and GROSSE POINT BLANK and an Executive Producer on ENTOURAGE.
A Red Band trailer was released for this film 'round Comic-Con earlier this year, if memory serves. It appears via the embed below:

I'm psyched.
-
maybe a NetFlix queue, maybe not.
-
...I'm psyched, based on his writings.
-
way better than 100,000 BC and on a par with Independence Day. Fuck all the Rollard haters.
-
Will John Cusack run into his character from Better of Dead? Will Curtis Booger Armstrong be present? Those two Japanese guys, one of whom thing he's Howard Cosell?
-
But too many trusted friends told me it was a giant, steaming piece of disaster-poop. I'm still torn...
-
I will spend the dough to go see this. Not 2012 though, or Avatard.
-
Can't wait for this. Didn't know it was coming. Love the Back To the Future Time Machine Hot Tub Control.
-
solely for craig robinson riding the white pony and summarizing the terminator chronology
-
He should say: "Let's go earn $1000 bucks doing crap work and invest it in Microsoft."
-
...or even just decent.Come on, man...be FUNNY again.
-
That there was no texting and very little "online" back in 1986, and wouldn't have been propositioning the 80s chick thusly. Fail!
-
...best of lists. I don't man top ten or anything...but I've probably seen that movie more times than any other this decade...
-
...I'm crying inside.
-
dunno, this one could go to the bad place.
-
You read my mind(sort of). I'd rather see Cusack reemerge sprawled out in the back of the garbage truck, and as it drives by the two black guys on the crane see him, and one says to the other "Damn!... now that's a shame when folks be throwin' away a perfectly good white boy". Tell me that wouldn't be classic.
-
Seriously; couldn't he have waited another year before dying? Didn't he realise that HOT TUB TIME MACHINE was coming out and using him as one of their jokes? Dear me.
-
I'm liking the looks of this movie.
-
...he should go back and re-do the last twenty or so years of his career. Like GROUNDHOG DAY it might take him a few hundred tries, but I'm sure he'd figure something out...
-
Roy Stalin and that fat dude from Head of The Class
-
I actually laughed at both of those trailers. Most unexpected. Could be good. Not game-changing. Heh. But good.
-
... why is a 13-year-old chubby lesbian hanging out with a black dude and two 50somethings?
-
This is a movie that looks like it could be equally as stupid, but I might enjoy it for the jokes.
-
This is the oddest group of "pals" I've seen thrown together in some time. Though it's hard not to root for Rob Courdry.
-
or GTFO!
-
Hot tub Time Machine. Why didn't I think of that!? This is the 1st preview all year that looks hilarious. Can't friggin wait. I...WANT..MY..2....DOLLARS.....!!!!!!!
-
i need to see this... soon.
-
Makes me think of that Taylor Swift scared straight sketch on snl, 1.21 jizzawatts ha.
-
88 dudes per hour :) steve pink sure has a thing for John Cusack, High Fidelity, Gross Point Blank and now this. Nothing wrong with that partnership, been a fan of John Cusack since I saw him play the doomed brother of Wil Wheaton in stand by me.
-
that's not Tara Reid.
-
Possibly STILL the best King adaptation. Although Misery is pretty damn disturbing and tense. But Stand By Me is a personal favorite. Also has a Corey in it back when the Corey's were still being taken serious.
-
THIS sounds like the type of comedy he should be attached to, not the family friendly pablum he's been doing for years.
-
Little dork can't even get excited over the Apocalypse. Broods through half the movie and then almost kills 100,000 people. Great work Mr. Nobody. To my mind the hero of the film was Oliver Platt.
-
How about him driving musical-singing Tim Robbins crazy in that early Rob Reiner flick? And shotgunning beers with the princess from Spaceballs? Very overlooked.
-
Is in the special features, the direqtor Reiner told Keifer Sutherland that after he jaqs Wil Wheaton for dearly departed John Cusack's yankee hat, he prolly threw it in the trash as soon as he went around the corner :( I wish in the end that Wil would've gotten it back when he pulled that gun on Keifer, but it's still a classiq imo. Especially that last scene of River Phoenix.
-
More interesting than a time traveling hot tub. A few of the webisodes are already up. Toxic hooch creates fiends on a train!
-
so he can do the little ones
-
How is it that John Cusack hated Better off Dead and One Crazy Summer for making him seem silly but he is now fine with doing a movie like this?
-
Clearly. This looks like an homage to that guy.
-
This just might be dumb enough to work. I love the irony of this thing being similar to Better Off Dead, a film Cusack disavowed long ago. Everybody wants some!
-
Last I saw he was directing Ned's Declassified for Nickolodeon.
-
I hope it's the Savage Steve style of stupid and not simply stupid stupid.
-
Awesome. Count me the fuck in for a movie called Hot Tub Time Machine. Because...why the hell not?
-
as the casually clueless racist/sexist. He shows up. Does a little funny. And is gone.
-
Because he was the only one who saw how absurd it all was, and took the money anyway. Well played in my book.
-
are two of the top movies this year for me. Of course D9 is at the top. It might change when I go see Avatar in 4 hours time. My first time watching a movie in 3d. My eyes are lubed up.
-
"Come and find me.""That just sounds exhausting."Today's socialization standards = owned.
-
that says it all. I'm glad I did not contribute to that though.
-
Sorry to go off topic, But anyone gonna mention the sad death of Roy Disney?
-
Just seen that Harrycaulder Already posted. Still, would be nice to have someone official on here say something.
-
I loved every part of it, but the Rourke as the villian (the accent, the look just turn me off). They can't get to Mandarin quickly enough.
-
No different than Hostel and Saw's tortureporn. It's a cheap way to get an emotional reaction.
-
After he says hot tub time machine then looks into the camera, I couldn't stop laughing.
-
Someone, rationally, explain to me how a multi-trillion dollar boat/ark was going to CRASH AND THEY WERE GONNA FUCKING DIE because a drill got stuck in a door?
-
The ship couldn't move. How does this make sense?
-
Yet there were enough Billion Euroanires to cause a stampede of humanity that pushed others to their deaths.
-
It looks just like the type of great comedy they used to make in the fucking 1980's!!!
-
giggle giggle black Micheal Jackson giggle giggle Twitter giggle giggle.
-
from Seinfeld, one those stupid high concept comedies.
-
GONNA GET IN THE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT TUB!
-
It was made in China.
-
I'm sure that the geek hitting on the 80s chick hasn't realized they are in the 80s yet.
-
I Know The Man Delivers To Of The Funniest Comedies Of All Time The Disapears Like He's Howard Hughes
-
WHY WON'T THIS STOP??? Fuck, Drew Berrymore is a shitty pimp for eyelashes, sorry honey, you're great and all at what you do, but that ad sucks ass. Anyway, some good ideas but the first chick we see has some modern anti-grav boob implants, that always kills it for me. The '80s had totally different tits. Plus, and I know this is a little dickish, but going back to the '80s and the slopes with Cusak is pointless, he's been there done that, we need him and his cliche buddies to go way more places and times. I'll netflix this or forget all about it.

...playing Phil Collins' "Sussudio?"
