Trailer Thursdays!
RYAN: Hear ye! Hear ye! Come one, come all to this special edition of
Trailer Thursdays!
CAROLINE: Thank God there’s another day of the week that begins with “T.”
RYAN: So…”Scoop.”
CAROLINE: Yes. We were oh-so-disappointed with the Woody Allen that
came out last fall – but now we have a new one, also starring
Scarlett, and it looks funny and madcap.
RYAN: And it has Hugh Jackman, who’s hot.
CAROLINE: Very hot. And Woody’s in it too.
RYAN: And it looks super, I love this kind of sleuthing movie. And I
like the title animation with all the tarot cards. It looks fun, funky and
fresh.
CAROLINE: This looks a little bit funny, just like “Manhattan Murder
Mystery,” which came out in the early 90s.
RYAN: Which is one of your favorite Woody movies.
CAROLINE: We hope you’ll like it.
RYAN: Check out the trailer here:
RYAN: The next trailer we would like to review –
CAROLINE: Actually, I would not like to but we’re going to anyway.
RYAN: It’s the latest from Will Ferrell.
CAROLINE: Oh? Will “One Trick Pony” Ferrell?
RYAN: Yeah, you’ve seen him do this once, you’ve seen it a thousand times. But I still love the man.
CAROLINE: And it’s got a ridiculous title: “Talladega Nights: The
Ballad of Ricky Bobby.”
RYAN: But I love Will Ferrell. He has his
moments of brilliance.
CAROLINE: He was great in “The Producers,” for example.
RYAN: He was excellent in that. I’m sure he’s terrific in this. It just
looks a little over the top.
CAROLINE: For example, there is yet another scene of him running
around in his underwear.
RYAN: I feel like that’s he favorite thing to do and it’s outgrown its on screen welcome.
CAROLINE: Yeah, but I agree that he’s often very funny. But the topic
of this movie, which is car racing, could not interest me any less, as
a woman.
RYAN: And I think Will is smarter than that. I’d like to see him take
his turn as funnyman-plays-straight and do a serious role like
Steve Carell in “Little Miss Sunshine” or Jim Carrey in “The Truman
Show.”
CAROLINE: That’s why I liked him in “The Producers.” He wasn’t just
being Will Ferell, he was actually playing a part. I just feel like
in every movie he’s in, it’s just a vehicle for him to run around
naked or in his underwear and it’s just annoying.
RYAN: Well, check out the trailer here and let us know what you think:
