Real Steel Trailer: I've Screen Grabbed Hugh Jackman Shirtless So You Don't Have to Watch the Ridiculous Trailer

They are robots. And they are boxing! And we’re supposed to root for the underdog robot. Because he’s scrap metal. A trash heap. A hunk of junk. It’s a robot, people! Why should we care which metal-based form wins a boxing match? Is it voiced by Vin Diesel and afraid of guns? Then who gives a shit? This shit’s dumber than exploding frog turds.

And no, i can’t wait to see it, either. I mean, on the one hand, it’s robots boxing. But on the other, IT’S ROBOTS BOXING. And Hugh Jackman is going to spar with a robot. It’ll be released in October, just in time for Oscar season.

So it's the Chief NockemHomer episode of The Simpsons starring Hugh Jackman as Homer and Young Thor as Bart? I'm in.

Real Steel is a Steven Spielberg and Robert Zemeckis movie based on Richard Matheson novel.
Throughout the movie there's just a 30% boxing.
Insiders who have seen Real Steel's preview are excited, Spielberg & Zemeckis are already planning the sequel, nobody in Hollywood bets millions of dollars on 'nags'....especially people like Spielberg & Zemeckis.

I saw this the other day and thought, "Hmm, this looks so completely ridiculous that it might be awesome." But then, I'll see anything Hugh Jackman is in.

Also, the ladies and menfolk across the land thank you for the screen grab.

Reel Steel? Are they robot fishermen?

It's got a cute kid. And a scrappy (Ha!) robot with a "personality." Why couldn't they have found a Mr. T-Bot in the scrapyard that was hidden because it was too awesomely ass-kicking. Then the last third of the movie would be a robot with Mr. T's voice kicking the crap out of a lot of other robots. Who wouldn't watch that? Call it "I Pity the Tool!".

I may have misplaced my soul somewhere.

That would have been better actually. Or better yet:
Transformer RockX: Over the Dark of the Moon

Hugh Jackman as Wolverine training Optimus Prime (Whose payments he's also behind on) to fight while learning to love his son Shia Leboof.

i hate movies with kids that don't act like kids. i think i saw a bit of that here. still, it does look like it could be fun. and there's nothing wrong with shirtless jackman.

That kid is rocking some serious Phantom Menace vibes.

Also I 'rection Jackman has gotten to the point now where he's trying to impress his kids rather than the wife. Because I can't imagine his kids sitting down to watch The Fountain anytime soon.

I'm confused, was this a trailer or did I just see the whole movie?
