Drive Trailer: A Trailer So Good that I've Run Out of Places to Get It Pregnant

Drive, which comes from Bronson director Nicolas Winding Refn and stars Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Christina Hendricks, and Bryan Cranston, opens on September 16th. If you have a calendar or a calendar app handy, why don’t you go ahead and mark that date down. If you have young children, go ahead and pick up the phone and arrange a babysitter. If you’ve made work or other vacation plans for that day that would prevent you from attending a movie screening, you go ahead and cancel those plans. If you have a terminal disease and less than a month to live, arrange to have your expiration date postponed. If you live until September 17th, you will be able to die happy.

This is the best trailer of the year so far, and reviews out of festivals indicate the that film is every bit as good as the trailer suggests. Now, I want you to watch this trailer because I want to ensure that your interest is piqued. On the other hand, I also fear that, by watching it, you might spend the next two months restless and unable to sleep, so impatient you are for September 16th to arrive.

Chances are, tickets at your local multiplex have not gone on sale yet. But if you want to go ahead and stand in line, I wouldn’t think any less of you.

Get a grip, Dustin.

/slaps Rowles in face

Dustin: Thanks, I needed that.

It won't let me watch unless I enter my birthdate below. But there is no below. I've hovered and clicked on every inch of the fricking thing. So they can blow me.

Gosling, Hendricks, Cranston, Perlman, Brooks and Mulligan? I'd watch any movie with that cast, even if it was Transformers 4 written by Tyler Perry and directed by Tom Six.

Holy shit. Gosling's a bad ass.

I don't know how to act.

Posted by: Cindy at July 21, 2011 10:58 PM

I stopped it because I feared it was giving away too much.

FUCK YES RYAN GOSLING.

Gahhh can't wait!!

Well now that we have seen half of the movie.. I dono your love of Gosling blinds you. I give it a *meh* could be good, could be bad.

Oh they rebooted The Transporter already? Cool. I guess if they can reboot Spider-Man that fast, why not.

Most excellent! I'm down with scary gangster Albert Brooks, it looks like a tasty role for him. I wish he would work more, I love him.

Gosling, how are you so awesome?

Posted by: Melody Be at July 22, 2011 12:40 AM

Yeah.... um, looks highly watchable, but cancel every plan I've ever had to see it on opening night? Noooot really.

Ryan Gosling is fucking amazing, though. Baby Goose!

I think I came a little.

Posted by: junierizzle at July 22, 2011 2:47 AM

I was fapping all the way through..
Who the fuck was that bald guy?? He scary!

Posted by: Magiel at July 22, 2011 4:10 AM

I like it. I like it a lot. But I'm not ready to get it pregnant. Maybe a little heavy petting. I do applaud the restraint of not throwing a classic muscle car in there anywhere. Stick with the current mustang because it's a sweet sweet ride.

Posted by: Mrcreosote at July 22, 2011 8:12 AM

The bald guy was Gosling. It's a burn mask for stunt drivers that looks like a human face. That way if they get a shot of the stunt car close to the camera, you don't see a hood or a helmet or saomething like that Magiel.

Menacing Albert Brooks. *Deep Breath In* Alright. It will be an adjustment. A bit jarring, especially because the words "That's Marlin!" keep popping into my head. But it's great that he's getting juicy work. Now let's see Brooks and Perlman get into a growl off.

I really doubt if I'll run to the theater for this (takes a hell of a lot to get me to go these days), but I will Netflix it, at least to watch Baby Goose.

The woman is stunning, but does Hendricks look a bit melty-face to anyone else?

Christina Hendricks looks ridiculous trying to walk to the car in that outfit. That's what you wear during a heist? Perspective, people. This isn't a Tomb Raider game. It's a real life action film.

Oh, the film? Have to see it.

Posted by: Robert at July 22, 2011 9:24 AM

I am so in it hurts. I'd watch that cast do table reads of Two and a Half Men.

Posted by: Sassafrass Green at July 22, 2011 10:14 AM

Great. My work won't let me watch anything today. What am I supposed to do? My JOB? Pffft!

Posted by: Paultera at July 22, 2011 10:49 AM

I was struggling to find the words and then Sassafrass Green said them all so perfectly.

Posted by: JenVegas at July 22, 2011 10:52 AM

I love Baby Goose, but I want to marry Carey Mulligan. But she's pretty tall, and I'm only 5'6", so it would be a little awkward and that's the only reason it wouldn't have worked out.

Posted by: sars at July 22, 2011 11:04 AM

I WAS planning to horribly murder Justin Bieber that night, but I could always change my plans.

Damn you, Ryan Gosling's abs.

Posted by: Nugs at July 22, 2011 11:14 AM

Eh, I'll wait for the reviews and word of mouth. Trailers have lied to me before. Actually, all trailers do is lie. It's their job.

Posted by: Slash at July 22, 2011 12:00 PM

It's the summer of the Goose!

Posted by: bananapanda at July 22, 2011 1:23 PM

Oh ok, I'll watch it. However when it comes out I'll be on Mt Kilimanjaro, so that might be tricky. Think there's a good signal up there?

Posted by: Joker at July 22, 2011 2:35 PM

HUH? looks like something vin diesel or The Rock would be in...
call it Stuntman Drift Part One
Lame

It wants my birthday, so I didn't bother. However, the overlord and I have vastly, vastly, vastly different tastes in films and stars. Case in point: The FwB trailer reminds me that it is truly a good thing that there is no such thing as a sulphuric acid license. I don't think I would care much if the entire bangables lists were garrotted. I don't support garotting, but if it's got to be them, I'm not acting as a human shield.

Amy Winehouse, huh? There was never going to be a happy ending there. Hm, very young.

Seems as if young Peaches Geldof, changing tack a little here, has lost a remarkable amount of weight just lately. No-one appears concerned about it but I find myself wondering, given her family history of perhaps over-exuberant behaviour, whether this likeable young lady is as well as she might be. I do hope she is.
