Hot Tub Time Machine Trailer 2

"Haven't You Seen Wild Hogs?"

By Steven Lloyd Wilson | Posted Under Trailers | Comments (17)

I swear it seems like someone is listening to us sometimes. Dustin noted after the first Hot Tub Time Machine trailer got released that it just looked like a rehash of the same crap from Wild Hogs, so what do we get in the second trailer? A vastly funnier looking movie, that even includes the line “didn’t you see Wild Hogs?” I’m telling you, Dustin has some freaky powers or some such. Like he can kill a yak at 200 yards with mind bullets.

Does it look great? Not really, but it’s definitely an improvement over the first trailer. A lot of obvious jokes (“what color is Michael Jackson?”), but some clever bits (like John Cusack getting stabbed in the face after protesting that a woman can’t possibly be breaking up with him because he knows full well that he breaks up with her and then she gets really fat). It definitely feels like the sort of trailer that contains all the best parts of the movie and doesn’t really give much indication of the plot other than “and hijinks ensue.”

This actually looks pretty funny. Love me some Cusack, so .... I'm cautiously in.

There'd BETTER be some flashback "Better Off Dead" joke on that mountain!

I think this looks like fun :)

But this is pretty different from all the crap Cusack has been doing lately. I'm gonna go ahead, give him the benefit of the doubt and see this.

Not that his latest crap matters. I have an unadulterated love for the man.

So after this little piece of glory, Cusack can't act all pissy and refuse to talk about Say Anything. Right?

Man, that stab to the face made me fall out of my chair. Grade: Cautiously optimistic.

I love me some Clark Duke! I especially love that the first time I saw him, he was playing the super-uptight Christian kid at college, and now everything else he is in, he seems to be the uber-perv. Kind of cracks my shit up. Between this and Kick-Ass, I will be seeing plenty of Clark in 2010.

So it's like a TARDIS that gets you wet? I'm in!

*Shakes head at BWeaves innocence*

The original TARDIS already did that for a legion of geeks.

No, the TARDIS is STILL doing that for a second legion of geeks.

can't wait for the porn knock-off version...

Ummm you're misspelling it, it's not T-A-R-D-I-S, it's T-E-N-N-A-N-T.

I'll also accept the non-Scottish spelling E-C-C-L-E-S-T-O-N.

That's telekinesis, Kyle. How about the power to move you?

That last line just kills me ,"That just sounds...exhausting"
