dammit! by tompiltoff	Feb 28th, 2008 11:05:18 PM

Watched it on that dancing show by dgcrawford	Feb 28th, 2008 11:16:44 PM
with a room full of people. No one laughed. Once.
Can't see it. US only trailer. by SpencerTrilby	Feb 28th, 2008 11:18:24 PM
My loss? Damn moviefone nonetheless.
Wow... by LOTGA	Feb 28th, 2008 11:21:57 PM
That's just... Just wow...
18 Shades of Awful by hauptman	Feb 28th, 2008 11:23:06 PM
Seriously, that was bad. And I like Mike Myers.
Christ! Did a cow shit in here?!? by Horace Cox	Feb 28th, 2008 11:34:03 PM
Nevermind, it's only the stench of that shitty trailer. That looks fucking awful. On a brighter note though, I would happily get up in Jessica Alba's guts. Yummmmmy!
Wow... just... wow... by Heckles	Feb 28th, 2008 11:39:13 PM
My brain shut down after I saw a black guy playing hockey. What a piece this flick looks like.
Didn't even bother clicking the link by GodMars	Feb 28th, 2008 11:39:50 PM
Is this honestly the best stuff you folks can find to post?
Put me down, Jackass!...Okay. (plop) by Zeke25:17	Feb 28th, 2008 11:44:42 PM
Made me laugh out loud. What the hell: I like most everything Myers does (Cat in the Hat notwithstanding). And Jessica gives me yummy yummy yummy love in my tummy! How bout her and Anne Hathaway in a documentary about sensual massage?
Horace Cox.... by Shakeshift	Feb 28th, 2008 11:46:57 PM
...NICE use of the line from 'Kentucky Fried Movie'. I tip my hat to you, sir!
Its an Indian Austin Powers! by Goatweed	Feb 28th, 2008 11:47:00 PM
I see the same gags, the same mannerisms, the same humor. I think AP is funny but this looks like a real wreck. Why not just make AP4? Jessica Alba in tight leather super-agent gear FTW!
holy motherfucking christ that looks awful by all	Feb 28th, 2008 11:50:50 PM
i'm not sure i've really liked anything he's done since 'so i married an axe murderer', like, 15 years ago
I didn't know Mike Myers was doing a fantasy!! by beetlegeuse	Feb 28th, 2008 11:50:51 PM
The Leafs won't win the cup, they won't even make the playoffs. They stink, and they will continue to be awful for years to come. I hope that was supposed to be intentionally funny. Because I know the part about the black guy being a hockey superstar was. Mike Myers is Canadian dammit he should know better, eh? Leafs Suck!
oh yeah, the leafs suck by all	Feb 28th, 2008 11:53:29 PM

When Justin Timberlake is the funniest* thing in your trailer... by JonQuixote	Feb 28th, 2008 11:57:10 PM
...your movie has problems. *"Funniest" is being used relatively.
Maybe this would've been funny 7 years ago by smackvein	Feb 28th, 2008 11:59:00 PM
back when I could tolerate Mike Myers
Seriously guys by SpencerTrilby	Feb 29th, 2008 12:01:11 AM
it's THAT shitty? The consensus in here got me interested in watching it. The trailer, not the movie.
Best thing was Timberlake... by Razorback	Feb 29th, 2008 12:07:36 AM
Everything else looked horrible.
That trailer... by landosystem	Feb 29th, 2008 12:18:31 AM
raped me in the eye holes... fucking christ there was nothing funny in there, unless you are simple enough to laugh at dropping a midget and getting a boner, in which case this movie will drive you to hysterics, like most of america. Really, who needs writers when shit like this will make 200 million?
Shakeshift by Horace Cox	Feb 29th, 2008 12:19:15 AM
Nice catch. Samuel L. Bronkowitz would be proud. Speaking of which, why didn't they dress up Mini-Me in a clown suit and give him a whip?
Should have called it "ASS: The Movie" by Mr. Waturi	Feb 29th, 2008 12:19:28 AM

Dude Mr. Waturi by Series7	Feb 29th, 2008 12:28:38 AM
When I was in middle School, me and my buddies thought up the movie Ass (but we were only of PG age so we call it butt) and the sequel to it would be Boobs. EHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm a hyper hypo!! Mike Meyers just go back to SNL, because why the fuck not you should have enough money from White Trash idiots buying your fucking crapfest Shrek 3 so you don't have to even get off your couch again, let alone waste my precious theater spaces with your movie premade for a sequel. Oh man Jimmy Kimmel was playing the bass clarinet, who'd a thunk that Man Show Co-host would be making relevant comedy in 08, while one of SNL's greatest actors would be making movies that Larry the Cable Guy fans waste all there money on so they don't have enough money to see his flicks.
Myers wrote it so the Leafs win the cup! by BigTuna	Feb 29th, 2008 12:41:09 AM
What a die-hard Leaf fan. I wonder how movie execs felt abvout his script containing hockey and Canada.
Wow. by TattooedBillionaire	Feb 29th, 2008 12:51:23 AM
That sucked. I actually enjoy the first two Austin Powers movies and love the Wayne's World flicks, but this looks like crap.
This character... by jimmy rabbitte	Feb 29th, 2008 12:59:37 AM
...is just Austin Powers in Ravi Shankar drag. Anybody who hated the AP films will not be won over by Love Guru.
Bad. by otm shank	Feb 29th, 2008 01:04:47 AM
Really, really, really, B A D.
Oy... by micturatingbenjamin	Feb 29th, 2008 01:09:03 AM
This is something that is going to be much better than the trailer makes it out to be. I have this feeling. Any time someone uses moustache wax...it's gonna be a laff riot..(Gangs of New York, There Will Be Blood, Anything with Sam Eliott)
Even light itself... by Pariah74	Feb 29th, 2008 01:15:07 AM
...cannot escape the pull of this movie's suck.
The best thing about this movie... by zacdilone	Feb 29th, 2008 01:27:03 AM
...will be that when it flops, Myers will run back to Austin Powers.
Does this feel WEIRD to you... by moviemenace	Feb 29th, 2008 01:38:41 AM
Mike Myers back in a lead role feels so off to me. It feels like a lifetime ago we saw him in anything and now here he is; front and center. The trailer has some laughs but the big ones are midget jokes. Maybe Myers time has come and passed, we just didn't realize it because he doesn't do anything. We'll find out for sure opening weekend.
Vern Troyer is badass by CuervoJones	Feb 29th, 2008 02:03:02 AM
In a good way.
BADASS. by warsinthesun	Feb 29th, 2008 02:16:21 AM
The return of Mike Myers. How is that these people disappear? Can't wait. Wish Adam Sandler and some of the other gang from those days would return to form and make some quality comedies.
Mike Myers is laughing all the way to the bank by antonphd	Feb 29th, 2008 02:24:22 AM
I love all of the shit people are saying here about how unfunny Mike Meyer's is. Enough people think he's funny that he's a millionaire too many times over to count. I know that none of these people would ever stoop to making movies that are funny to millions of people in exchange for being a rediculously rich. Being rich as hell just isn't worth having to make a silly movie once every few years or sit in a chair and do voice work for animated movies once every few years. Yeah. That Mike Meyers. He is such an idiot. He must just spend all of his time having fun being rich instead of working. What a loser. Not like all of the folks here who find that they have so little to do with their time that they spent it bitching on AICN talkbacks about Mike Meyers comedies. Ah, was nice to drop in after a long time and see that nothing changes around here.
That hurt... by bb6634	Feb 29th, 2008 02:44:48 AM
Seriously. I mean, the dudes that make 'Date Movie', Epic Movie', 'Meet the Spartans' could do better... OK, sorry. They actually can't. But that was still looked frickin bad.
Looks. Fucking. Awful. by Sledge Hammer	Feb 29th, 2008 02:48:35 AM
Ergo bet it makes at least a hundred million bucks domestic. Look at them, already lining up to see this shit. Ordinary fucking people, I hate 'em.
The Cat in the Hat made me want to punch Meyers in the throat. by Rev. Slappy	Feb 29th, 2008 02:59:23 AM
This looks just as bad, incredibly unfunny.
I agree with you Harry by Accordion27	Feb 29th, 2008 03:27:39 AM
Knotts was the man. http://tinyurl.com/26dzag I have to say, The Love Guru looks god-awful. When the poster appeared I was frightened yet curious, but this, who expected this?
Baffled by Myers hate by Mr Writer	Feb 29th, 2008 03:40:01 AM
Is it because he's a millionaire? I'd rather watch something with Mike Myers in it than anything by Will 'Chevy Chase' Ferrell anyday! Yeah, The Love Guru looks as broad as comedy can get (its the definition of low brow comedy) but I laughed a few times during that trailer and it basically looks like an Austin Powers retread with an Indian theme. Its not going to be a classic, but it'll probably be funnier than 80% of the comedies at the cinema these days. I know the likes of Apatow and Rogen are the flavour of the month at the moment and can do no wrong, but Myers has done some great stuff over the years.
Didn't hate it... by LlGHTST0RMER	Feb 29th, 2008 04:56:24 AM
it did make me chuckle once or twice, but... it is so similar to all the last 3 Austin Powers movies that it's just embarassing. I mean, after all this time Myers has been away from appearing in movies (last one was Cat in the Hat and that was under extensive makeup,) and he comes back to do this. Basically the exact same stuff he did as Austin Powers. Really, Mike? ...Really? This seems like the worst case of going-back-to-the-well syndrome since Kevin Smith made Clerks 2.
Is this what was delaying Austin 4?!? by droids22	Feb 29th, 2008 04:57:22 AM
I love Mike Myers but that trailer was embarrassingly bad! Who would see this in an Iron Man, Indy IV, Dark Knight summer?
This'll make Master of Disguise look like Rashomon by Garbageman33	Feb 29th, 2008 05:39:03 AM
It's like the perfect storm of unfunny.
I loved that Love God? trailer... by tonagan	Feb 29th, 2008 05:48:30 AM

And now I can't get that song out of my head... by tonagan	Feb 29th, 2008 05:49:43 AM
Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock, Mister Peacock (repeat)
Looks bad by Bobo_Vision	Feb 29th, 2008 06:37:13 AM
Nice Deepak Chopra impression, but not very funny. And making fun of Verne Troyer's size got old a few Austin Powers films ago. Speaking of "Master of Disguise", that film has a unique distinction. When I was a projectionist, "Master of Disguise" was the film for which I had to shut off the projector the most times because the theater was completely empty. Second place went to the "Jamboree Bears".
HATERS SUCK! by Surround Sound	Feb 29th, 2008 06:50:19 AM
How could you not think that trailer was funny? I freakin' laughed out LOUD! The AP movies kick all kinds of ass and Mike Myers always makes me laugh my ass off. You haters wouldn't know what was funny if it bit your tiny dicks off.
Wow! by rbatty024	Feb 29th, 2008 06:52:33 AM
That looks terrible. Mike Myers was great up through the first Austin Powers movie. After that he's just kind of lost it. Too bad, he was talented once upon a time.
YYEEEHHHHAAAAAWWWWWW!!!!MIDGET! by travis-dane	Feb 29th, 2008 07:04:52 AM
where`s Bridget?
Um...get a map, Mike. by Munkstomper	Feb 29th, 2008 07:09:19 AM
Since when is "coming to America" mean going to Toronto? The last thing I knew, Air Canada Center was in...well....Canada. Oh, and being a Leafs fan? If I could write a movie, yeah, Leafs are winning. Get over it.
Can Verne Troyer make a movie by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Feb 29th, 2008 07:18:53 AM
without Mike Meyers? Considering what life has given him he's done well. It must be tough because look at it this way: Peter Dinklage, while a dwarf himself, has a cool voice which give him credit to roles he's in. Elf sucked balls, but the only good part was Dinklage. Troyer on the other hand, like others with his condition, has a voice of a higher pitch, which makes it harder for some to take him seriously. If you put Troyer in the roles Dinklange has done they films would be inferior just because of his voice. This is probably why he's sticking to comedic roles.
Wanna see funniest thing Myers ever did? by Lenny8	Feb 29th, 2008 08:38:46 AM
Go watch Iconoclasts: Mike Myers and Deepak Chopra, where Myers tries to frame Love Guru as having a higher, almost metaphysical significance. FOR REAL. He's dead serious.
The funniest thing Mike Meyer will ever do... by Sledge Hammer	Feb 29th, 2008 09:16:36 AM
...will be to die. I'm looking forward to it.
Damn it... by Sledge Hammer	Feb 29th, 2008 09:19:09 AM
...guess my keyboard thought that comment was a bit harsh, and thus set about to undermine me with bad spelling on Myers surname. Well fuck you keyboard, and fuck Mike Myers!
I THOUGHT IT WAS PRETTY FUNNY by BringingSexyBack	Feb 29th, 2008 09:23:36 AM
Is there something wrong with me?
Trailer not available by Lucidmind	Feb 29th, 2008 09:31:23 AM
Seriously, what's the deal with not letting people outside of the US watch it? I'm getting so damn sick of this stuff (and region codes...). The Internet is global damn it!
no matter what you think of Myers by Kloipy	Feb 29th, 2008 12:49:03 PM
Wayne's World is still hilarious.
That looks like dying and going to hell by IndustryKiller!	Feb 29th, 2008 03:19:14 PM
How the fuck could anyone find that funny?? C'mon Quint you cannot be that base in your tastes. That looks like utter garbage.
