Trailer Trash Heap November 8th – American Reunion, 21 Jumpstreet reboot and House of Pleasure
Kyle Kriner here, geeks!! And, of course, this is the all-mighty Trailer Trash Heap!!
I’ve got a pretty healthy dosage for you guys this week. Some solid trailers, plenty that I’m completely stoked for. I’m sure you guys will share my excitement. If not, then cut me a break, and come back next week and see if I excite you… with the trailers of course. Any other way would just be wierd…
Well, anywho, enjoy, folks!!
American Reunion
Okay, so that photo booth thing from before was pretty cool, but now we get the actual trailer and I’m even more stoked than ever. It seems like everyone has facial hair now, except for Stifler who doesn’t really look any older than he did in the last movie. The idea of everyone getting together in East Great Falls again puts chills down my spine and I can’t wait to see what happens. Now cue the Stifler’s mom music…
Project X
Wow, so now the guys who made The Hangover are gonna make what I’ve dubbed as a “camcorder” flick. This trend will not die again until every genre has exhausted it I guess. This movie looks extremely crazy. Starts off as a big adolescent party, and somehow gets the SWAT team involved. I couldn’t really tell if the movie is very funny, I got more of a dark humor vibe from it, but I guess we’ll see.
Safehouse
Looks like Denzel is treading the line between villain and good guy now. And I’m loving every second of it. He looks sick in this one. And we know Ryan Reynolds plays the young underdog hero pretty well, so this match is as good as Denzel and Chris Pine I suppose. I love how Ryan Reynolds wakes up with hot half naked chicks in every movie he makes. Can we make this guy a little more down to earth?? Either way, the movie looks awesome. It’s full of guns and explosions, everything a growing boy needs.
Wanderlust
Paul Rudd is the man. And with Ken Marino writing this one, I’m totally along for the ride. Role Models is one of my favorites and I expect almost the same greatness here. Plenty of awkward humor, and the concept of this couple running away to find some kind of new life is really fun. I didn’t expect to be so excited for this one, but count me in.
21 Jump Street
So Channing Tatum clearly can’t pull of high school roles anymore, and I’m glad to see that the characters in this movie aren’t just going to overlook the fact that he’s trying to blend in as a student. That breathes some fresh air into this concept for me. It looks like him and Jonah have some pretty funny chemistry and Jonah can still just about pull off the highschool thing. The action is what I’m really dying to get a glimpse of. We know Channing thinks he’s a tough guy now, but Jonah Hill with a gun? Can’t wait…
House Of Pleasure
Wow…just wow. I don’t think I’ve ever been so bored by a trailer before. I also never thought that whorehouse could possibly bore me this much. You guys are completely on your own here.
Outrage
This is just one of those films I cannot take seriously. The voiceover work is completely overdone, the special effects are terrible, and the acting seems completely wooden. The fact that we’re supposed to take this whole Yakuza plot seriously, and think these guys are menacing, just kind of cracks me up.
J. Edgar
Well, let me start off by saying that I trust Clint Eastwood and I would follow him into the bowels of Hell if he wanted me to. But that doesn’t change the fact that this film wants me to watch Leonardo DiCaprio play the role of a president (editor’s note: J. Edgar was never a U.S. President… so let’s go with “politico”) for what is probably two and half hours or something. Leo still doesn’t look old enough to be up for this one, and to be honest, I have no desire in seeing him in a biopic anyway. I’ll let him slide with Inception, but this is pushing my tolerance for him.
