This surely isn't terribly exciting to the rest of the world, but it's thrilling to me that I have actually managed to enter the mid-90s or so and am - for the first time - typing this on my fancy new laptop while enjoying a strong cup of java at Jittery Joe's. It might be also because of the large Brazilian brew I'm downing, but it makes me seriously giddy.
And you know, ever since I heard that Kevin Smith was making a rather routine-sounding buddy cop movie as his next flick - and one he didn't even write himself - I just assumed that "Cop Out" was one I would skip altogether.
But, as you can see from the red band clip below, he does have one definite strength in his corner, the indefatigably crude Tracy Morgan. If you love watching him on "30 Rock" - and when the Emmys are perennially showered on the show, I really can't understand why he isn't at least nominated - you know he's at his best when he appears to be just spouting whatever comes into his head. And from this seriously crude clip - be warned, it contains both talk of monkey sex and a 10-year-old getting punched in the nards - you can see that Kevin Smith understood that he should at least let Tracy Morgan be Tracy Morgan, which will be enough to sucker me into buying a ticket when this comes out Feb. 26. Enjoy.
Burlesque actually looks really good in that clip on the contrary. Much better than I originally thought it would. This looks more like a modernized "Cabaret" than a "Showgirls" retread. Let's not forget this is a musical not a drama about strippers. The fact that Kristen Bell, Stanley Tucci, and Alan Cumming are in make it that much more intriguing. I'm pretty sure I'll be seeing this.
You're both probably right that I'm being way too hard on this, especially since this is the first clip I've seen of it... It was indeed funny to see Cher and Stanley Tucci almost flirting for the camera, so I suppose there's at least a good chance this will be a lot of fun
When I was very young, my father brought home a little movie called "Spinal Tap," and I have never been the same since. Along with being a movie junkie and a devoted fan of the hapless Baltimore Orioles, I have recently returned to the town I grew up in, Salisbury, MD., to work for The Daily Times newspaper.
