I’m kind of weird with movies. I can’t recall too many films that I didn’t enjoy, but I’m also not an active theater-goer. Blame it on me being cheap, blame it on me having no attention span. I actually don’t think I’ve seen one movie in a theater this year (except for “Howl”, which was a premiere, so that’s different…kind of).
The first movie of 2010 that might get me to sit in a theater for two hours and eat stale popcorn? “Due Date”. Thanks to an insanely funny trailer (and the presence of current mancrush Zach Galifianakis), I am pumped to see a movie that features Robert Downey Jr. for the first time in my life (I am also pumped to see a movie that features Jamie Foxx for the first time).
This trailer’s been circulating for several months now (and I totally meant to post it the first time I saw it, which was probably back in August), but…it’s a slow news week and the movie comes out next Friday. If you haven’t checked out the trailer yet, please do so. You’ll laugh like a drain. Hopefully the entire film can sustain my interest. Judging from the talent involved, I’m pretty sure that it will.
