Trailer Tuesday: When in Rome

by Andy

when_in_romeThere are so many oddities with When In Rome that I’m interested to see how this January 2010 romcom turns out. And by interested I mean this looks like turd. You’ve got Josh Duhamel (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen) taking on his first comedy/romance since 2004′s Win a Date with Tad Hamilton; and you have director Mark Steven Johnson switching from superheroes (Daredevil and Ghost Rider) to laughs and love. Oh, and you’ve got Kristen Bell trying to prove to the world that she’s (a) not an alien with her crazy chin and weird forehead, but also that she (b) does not have male genitalia. I don’t know if I made it clear enough or not, but I don’t think she’s attractive. At all.

Check out the trailer below and let me know your thoughts. I think it looks like two-star January blah. Also, is this not one of the worst movie posters you’ve ever seen? Seriously, this looks like it was designed and Photoshopped by a pair of  inept movie marketers, one  colorblind and the other just plain blind. Blech.

What do you think?

    Forget the poster– that’s simply the piss colored welcome doormat to one of the weirdest, most unevenly awful trailers I may have ever seen.

    And yet, Dax Shephard and Will Arnett.

    Just so we’re clear, you hated everything?

    Oh, I watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall last night (free HBO) and she’s not that bad looking.

    Plus I really liked Josh Duhamel in Las Vegas. That was a stupidly entertaining tv show. But you don’t do tv shows, sigh.

    Aldus Snow in that movie is hilarious.

    “I would rather have my testicles spread out like a wafer and then have them covered in a layer of honey and then have wasps come and sting me and then have them covered in another layer of vinegar and then have it worn as a swimming cap by a Nazi. I’d rather have that than spend another second with her.”

    Danny’s correct. Andy, you have the most jacked up taste in famous chicks in the history of the world.

    Negative. She looks like the Joker. And if that’s sexy to you dudes, so be it. It’s cool if you like dudes. The closet door is made of all kinds of wood my friends. All kinds.

    Brotha man..if all you can see in that little blonde peach is The Joker..maybe its someone else here who’s in the closet watchin a little too much Heath Ledger.

    Wasnt it you who ran out to see Brokeback? ;)

    It’s all good bro, like m’boy Downy Jr said in Tropic Thunder
    “Everyones gay once in a while.”

    Touche, sir. Touche. And like Alpa Chino said, “I love da p***Y!” Just not the one on Kristen Bell.

    BUSTED! The trailer was so crappy, Hulu apparently took it down.
