Thanks Satan!

That doesn't look very good.

Forgive me, Lord, for I have sinned. I laughed at the 'Three Stooges' trailer at least three times. I... I really think the guys they got to play them look like they did a pretty good job! I still don't see why this needs to exist, but the look is right... the voices are right... the body language is right. Throw in some violence (upped to adjust for inflation, of course), and you're more than halfway there.
Ha! Violence.

Guaranteed this does great at the box office.
Because people are fucking idiots.

Hey, Beezlebub....
fuck you.

Crowley? WHY DID GAIMAN LET YOU OUT OF YOUR CAGE?
Posted by: Parker Jammstein at December 7, 2011 2:48 PM
Doesn't need to exist but I second the amazement that they got the voices and body language right. And at least they hurt Snooki

The only way I'll watch this is if you promise that the reanimated corpses of the original Stooges come back to eat these schmucks in the end.

Still doesn't look as bad as the last 5 Sandler movies. Or the cinematic Christmas waste they're pimping now, that chipmunk movie.

Eh, I vastly prefer the Marx brothers.

The Three Stooges? Nyot, nyot nyot!!
Posted by: NeoCleo at December 7, 2011 4:56 PM
Beezlebub, I like your work. I hope they take you on as a regular here.
Posted by: A-schaef at December 7, 2011 4:57 PM
It at least gets points for finger-stabbing that Snooki chick.
Posted by: Candee at December 7, 2011 4:57 PM
God or somebody help me, I laughed a couple times.
I'll poke myself in the eye now.

I didn't want to laugh, but I did. A few times. They look, sound and act the part well enough to bring back memories of getting up early to watch (what I only realized after rewatching as an adult) absolutely horrific levels of violence.
It also looks like the Farrely brothers love the original enough to recreate the true magic of The Three Stooges: pointless, cartoonish, and absolutely horrific levels of violence.
It would take some bad reviews to make me not want to see this. Of course, I loved 2012 (for all the wrong reasons, but still) so that's how much my endorsement counts.

No.

I smirked at a few moments. I can't help it. Will Sasso is giving good Curly. The only thing that depresses me is that he gained back all the weight he lost towards the end of Mad TV and then some.
Posted by: Robert at December 7, 2011 5:17 PM
I totally laughed - color me ashamed.

Thank you, Candee! I was thinking the same...and I actually WATCH "Jersey Shore".
Don't judge me.
Wow...I'm so conflicted. The Stooge (characters) look SO out of their element in the modern day, and the actors...well someone said it upthread; the body language is there, the voices sound good, but not seeing Moe, Larry or Curly's faces is really gonna take me out of the thing every goddamn scene.
Think I'm going to have to pass here.
Posted by: Green Lantern at December 7, 2011 5:50 PM
That looks awful, but fuck me if that isn't a spot-on Curly.
Posted by: jeaux schmeaux at December 7, 2011 7:14 PM
Sorry, but if that trailer didn't make you laugh at least a few times you probably already traded your soul to ol' Beezey some time ago in exchange for an inflated sense of self-worth and a smug attitude. Those guys looked, sounded and acted just like the real Stooges, and if their expressions of pain didn't harken you back to more halcyon days of your youth, I pity the children you once were.
Posted by: Some Guy at December 7, 2011 7:50 PM
Hey universe, fuuuuuccccckkkkk yyyyyooooouuuuu. Shit on my childhood some more why don't you.

Beelzebub is a smelly prostitute whose opinion is stupid, as is his face (I can only assume).

Crap on a cracker, why did we let them film this in Atlanta?
Posted by: Jenilane at December 7, 2011 10:54 PM
I was never a big fan of the Stooges. Maybe that's why I smirked and chuckled and grinned a couple of times during this.
I know, I'm a terrible, terrible person.
Posted by: DarthBrookes at December 7, 2011 11:14 PM
if you were like me, weekends spent at dad's were mostly on the couch watching large amounts of the three stooges. when news broke of this movie, i was stunned. how dare they!?
then i saw this trailer and to my shame i laughed four times. will sasso is almost perfection. dare i hope? dare i see this in theaters?
at the very least, they poked snookie in the face, something that can't happen enough.
Posted by: ladyvader99 at December 8, 2011 1:08 AM
Agreed. Damn good Curly.
You could never do this and make it work. There's too much about them that is rooted in an older era. They don't even work as out of water anachronisms.
But I snorted when he jabbed Snooky.
Posted by: Protoguy at December 8, 2011 1:43 AM
So, this is the kind of thing you hear about and cringe, just thinking about it.
Then I watched the trailer. I laughed, hard, several times. I mean, they've got the stooges down *perfectly* - the voices, facial expressions, body language, everything.
Now, I agree that it's totally not going to feel right in a modern setting, but I'd be interested to see what these guys could come up with if they decided to shoot a 1940's piece...
Posted by: mac at December 8, 2011 7:37 AM
Are we dividing along the traditional guys love 'em/women hate 'em line? I've always figured that was because the Stooges represent a family unit: Moe is the father, Larry the mother (he acts very feminine at times) and Curly the baby. And, of course, Moe is an incredibly abusive father. Men identify with Moe and can laugh at the violence from a perspective of dominance. Women cringe knowing that they're the ones who most often get beat on in an abusive relationship.
Welp, that's my amateur sociology/psychology lecture for the day. Looks like I can start drinking now.

When Asmodeus sees this, Beelzebub will be demoted to a Lemure. That doesn't even meet Hell's standards.
Posted by: FabMax at December 8, 2011 11:36 AM
It looks a helluva lot better than SNOW WHITE AND THE THREE STOOGES.

The devil is still firmly in the Grown Ups II camp. This is just Belial or one of the other lesser imps.
