I can’t tell you much about this new trailer for the Jerry Bruckheimer produced G-Force, except that it stars Bill Nighy, Will Arnett, Zach Galifianakis and it’s directed by Hoyt Yeatman and written by the Wibberlys. I can’t tell you any more than that because I refuse to watch the trailer. After Tommy and the Cool Mule and The Cookie Thief, I just can’t put myself through the pain.
If you like the way it feels when your brain bleeds, then I highly recommend spending a couple of minutes alone with the G-Force trailer and some balled up tissue:
Dustin, give a motherfucker a warning first! For fucks sake, it's a 3D movie about talking Guinea Pigs staring Nicholas Cage as a pig named Darwin! This looks worse than anything Cage has ever done, and I saw Ghost Rider.
Figgy, when I first hears about this I prayed it was that G Force. With Tiny, and the little guy who squeaked-I was okay with that-then I see gerbils, hamsters, fart jokes, fly down puns, ans unless I'm mistaken Steve Buscemi in a cameo? Tell me I was wrong about that, because that's just wrong.

Oh, figgy, I loved *that* G-Force so much as a kid. It and Starblazers. Ahhh, the memories. Remind me one of these days to tell you about the kid who tried to pass off the theme song from Starblazers as original poetry once in 5th grade. Good times, I tells. Good times.

Why did I watch that? What happened to my brain? Where is can soda lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamp lamamamawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
WHY does there have to be a fart joke? Why? Is it written in the evil contract of every nefarious writer of "family" movies? Does it get rejected if they fail to have inserted at least one "Dude, open a (fucking) window!" Do they get paid by the fart joke?

Every time I see Bill Nighy's name, I think it's the science guy instead and say to myself, "Wow, he's really branching out these days."
Might as well buy my tickets now. If I am lucky I can push my kid and her friends into the theater while I read a book in the lobby. Probably The Bell Jar.

Figgy: Every time I see the mention of "G-Force" on here I get excited until I remember this talking gerbil movie. I watched "G-Force" when it was called "Battle of the Planets" and my 8 year old mind could not contain the awesome.
i LOVE the bell jar! why can't they make THAT with talking rodents??
oh shit. i just gave some studio jerkoff the idea, didn't i?
damn
damn
damn.

Hey, Will Arnett has to help support Archie. I've got no problem with actors who don't have universal (read: lowest common denominator) appeal taking roles for the paycheck.

I think the new catch phrase for the summer is going to be, "Poop in his hand, poop in his hand!" How adorable... I just pooped in my hand after watching that.

Oh GOD what a relief! I thought Disney and Bruckheimer were taking a shit all over Battle Of The Planets! A preemptive comedic deuce dropped on Grant Morrison's WE3 is something I can cope with, as it's easily ignored.

That trailer may Hollywood Chihuahua look like Oscar material. Sweet cracker sandwich.

Has the integration of cartoon and live-action ever been a success?
Posted by: kelsy at April 26, 2009 9:48 PM
Yeah, "Mary Poppins," "Who Framed Roger Rabbit." It can be done well.

Oh damn, wrong thread. Can you just delete that one up there? And this one too. Sorry. Thanks.

Oh fuck Will Arnet! It wasn't his acting that was why you watched Arrested Development. It was the writing. And after this and Sit Down, Shut Up, he's proven he's only as good as the material he's given.
But I've ALWAYS wanted to go on a Michael Bay style high-octane thrill ride!
