I dunno, I think I love the fact Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a better movie than any Lethal Weapon. That's a lot to love, right there.

Also, dark secret nobody really likes to admit down deep: Danny Glover isn't very good as Murtaugh. A lot of confused goggling and sputtering and not much else.
Man, shitting on Murtaugh now? I need to take a break from GAF today.

Kinda...uhm. Well, you know.

Also, think we'll get a second trailer soon.
 
Bumping because holy shit this is some of the better pre-release marketing I've seen in awhile.

A running series of "interventions" with Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling, both attempting to work through their issues and never actually solving anything at all.

I've only made it through two of them so far but I've laughed out loud, and loudly, like five or six times.

The Journey
Confrontation
Building Walls
Stress Management
Coming Together
Asking Why

I can't believe Warners is actually trying to sell this movie. I thought for sure they'd just kinda let it float out there. This looks like they're actually trying to push it.
 
Watch asking why. Best one yet, I laughed so hard.

''GODDAMNIT!''
 
I fucking hate the trailers because I really, really want to be as blind as possible going in to this but the trailers I have seen have just been so memorable that I already have scenes memorized mentally. Plus I am happy to see the studio pushing this film seemingly pretty hard.

It has become one of my most anticipated films this year though for sure and I just hope the best stuff wasn't laid out in the trailers already.

Yeah, just a month to go. Best to avoid all other clips/trailers from now on.

It certainly was/is in my top 3 for this year, hope it delivers. One of the producers said that they were planning on making this into a franchise (if it does well).
 
Looks pretty good, although this:

Doesn't sound so good to me. Don't get me wrong, if it's a success and they can make more of em, more power to them, but man, everything needs to be a franchise these days. This feels like one Edgar Wright's cornetto movies - one and done. When it's so close to being a spoof of a genre I often think it's more powerful when it's just the one movie.

But that's just me being grumpy, don't mind that. Movie looks good! I'll watch it.
 
Looks great.

Checkled at the Iron Man 3 namedrop, I mean there's better Shane Black movies they could put there.

Also, Russell Crowe seems to be turning into John Goodman.

I get what you are saying, but the original is still there to enjoy even if the sequels aren't as great (this all assuming this one will be really good). And if they are able to follow it up with something cool, we would be happy they decided to make them. But let's see how this one does first. Clearly they have faith in this project so at least that is a good sign.
 
Shit looks awesome. Better not bomb as hard as Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

Kiss Kiss didn't so much bomb as it dissipated into the ether. Warners didn't push that thing at all. They also didn't spend anything on it, either. I'd imagine home video's helped it out quite a bit.

No way this does what that film did. The fact WB is putting in any effort at all is going to guarantee that.
 
On imdb it says crime, mystery, thriller. But watching this trailer it's more of an R rated action comedy buddy detective movie which is infinitely better. So which one is correct ? I hope it's comedy heavy. We need good comedies.

Shane Black has only directed two movies, the second of which made over a billion dollars. I think it's perfectly reasonable to throw that in if it gets people interested.

Really looking forward to this, hope it does well. I spoke with Black a few years ago at Austin and he was a pretty cool dude. Even took the time to speak with me at a party even though he was in the middle of fighting with his girlfriend. :lol

And the other one literally nobody saw. You yell "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang" and everybody says, "huh, what?" You say "Iron Man 3"...and we got a panic on our hands on the fourth week of May
