IMDB says Sean Penn is 'rumored'. lol, put that 'rumor' to rest.

I felt the opposite

didn't care much for the Weather Man while Pursuit of Happyness was one of my favorite movies of that year.

Don't know much about this. Really excited to see a trailer though. My cinema sucks for trailers, so whenever it hits online will be the first I see it.

Yeah, The Weather Man was really good. Couldn't bring myself to watch The Pursuit of Happyness. Looked so stupid and sappy.

I mean, they've got a template since this has the same set-up of the previous film. Just need to modernize it. From what is shown, it looks to be cleverly conceptualized for today.

Saw the trailer with The Way, Way Back and it looks great. Loved the trailer music.

I think this looks fairly horrible. Of course, that may be because I think the vast majority of Ben Stiller films are awful. Looking at his filmography, I see about 2-3 films I actually like, and a couple I can tolerate, then a lot of crap.

vegeta88 · 07-27-2013, 08:32 AM

I saw the trailer in front of The Wolverine. Looks amazing. I think it could be one of my favorites.

Where is the trailer online?

MikeScott · 07-27-2013, 08:40 AM

I know! I want to watch the trailer again. And then probably again.

Not a fan of Ben Stiller, but I loved the WTF? trailer

Imagination movies are the best because I have no idea what the Hell is going on and that's the fun of it.

esteban² · 07-27-2013, 12:11 PM

I'm not a big fan of Ben Stiller, not at all. But if this trailer looks good, that's not going to stop me from seeing the movie. When he's good, he's good.

It's not a typical Ben Stiller film. The ones he directs are generally better films too, so that's a great sign. Just give it a chance, you might be surprised...I'd say it looks, and feels, very much like a Cameron Crowe film.

This looks great. The trailer was unbelievably captivating. We need more trailers with little to no dialogue.

And which give away little, to no, story. That was a plus.

Cameron Crowe was the first thing that came to mind after I saw the trailer.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the film then...

Jasonic · 07-27-2013, 07:36 PM

I was surprised that I actually did get the trailer with The Wolverine. It definitely looked really interesting. Not sure of what to think yet. But December definitely has me excited for quite a few movies.

chris_sc77 · 07-27-2013, 07:41 PM

Trailer was at least interesting and fresh. Dont really like Wiig though. Sean Penn is great. Hope he has a good role.

Small, but memorable. He's the lynch pin of the film.

I love Wiig and she was the reason I was interested before seeing the trailer. She's still a big reason. I think she might score an Oscar nomination for this. At least a Golden Globe nomination.

love the trailer song which I had heard of before its use here
