Movie Trailer Review, Episode 24
Tropic Thunder is awesome. Ben Stiller has not yet made a bad movie, am I right or am I right?
Eagle Eye
Directed by Shia Laboufs live in boyfriend D.J. Caruso who also directed him Disturbia. This trailer is pretty great, they cut it together in a way that makes me forget it stars Labouf and it is directed by Caruso. The trailer starts with Shia getting a call from an anonymous voice telling him to escape from the feds who are out to get him. It all seems very Matrix-y and it’s got a cool vibe. But the movie is going to be terrible, I have already decided, and I’m sure people are going tell me months from now “It’s actually pretty good” and then I’ll be disappointed in them.
Blindness
Did you see City of God? Did you see The Constant Gardner? Are you like me and think they are amazing? Me too!!! The trailer for Blindness has a crazy dystopian Children of Men kind of feel. A disease sweeps the world that causes people to go blind, and the infected get swept away into quarantine colonies. Julianne Moore stays with the blind for some reason and becomes some kind of leader of the infected. The trailer is amazing. Ah-freaking-mazing.

What about Cable Guy?
Um… what about Cable Guy?
He directed Cable Guy.
Are you accusing Cable Guy of being a bad movie? Cuz it’s not, it’s freaking fantastic as far as dark comedies go.
There are two types of people in the world, those who like Cable Guy and those who like Liar Liar… which are you?
Where should I begin the list?
Starsky & Hutch
Along Came Polly
There’s Something About Mary…ETC.
Ben is not as good as you think.
Oh and Cable Guy!!!!!!!
Dad
Stiller was in those movies, he didn’t make them. And Cable Guy is great.
Wait… did you say There’s Something About Mary is a bad film? now the whole world doesn’t make sense. Not only is There’s Something About Mary one of the most ferociously original comedy’s of the 90’s but it started a trend to better comedy films in general!
I’m not gonna sit here and try and defend my point about Cable Guy because I know that some people just don’t like the movie (for the record, Aaron hasn’t actually seen the film).

I was gonna mention Cable Guy, but damn I was beat to it. Do forget Reality Bites, that movie bites.
Hi Josh, I just found out that Don Lafontaine died today and that made me think of you and this crazy blog of yours. OK everyone… let’s have a moment of silence for THE premier trailer voice of our time…
