    You have the rule of Hollywood moviemaking backwards.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Looks pretty painful.

    Maybe Kevin Smith should just stop making feature films and continue doing "An Evening with..." shows for the rest of his career.

    It's kinda cool that Harold Faltermeyer (of Beverly Hills Cop and Top Gun-fame) is writing the score though.

    Kevin Smith is so '90s; it's kind of absurd that he even exists anymore

    I was even disappointed when I saw him in Live Free or Die Hard.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Tracy Morgan's schtick has gotten really old. I barely finished the third season of 30 Rock.

    He has a schtick?

    I guess I never picked up on any consistent elements in his act. I just never found him funny at all.

    His best film to date is Zack and Miri, so how could that be? :P

    After Chasing Amy, it seems like he really can't top himself. That was his peak.

    Despite this starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan (plus Sean William Scott), I saw the trailer. It only made me laugh twice, and that's not a good sign. Pass.

    I would've thought this was a for-hire type of job instead of something by Kevin Smith. Looks awful.

    Really? Going by recent trailers, the one for Pinapple Express had many a great funny moment.

    When Scott says "This is police brutality!" the expression on Willis's face when he answers "not yet" is probably the only thing in the trailer that made me laugh.

    Seriously, that was a great expression. Other than that? Meh.

    I can't help but to think this will be hilarious. That said, Smith hasn't made a good movie since Chasing Amy, so my optimism will probably be crushed...again.

    ARe you guys serious?

    I chuckled at some of the movie references, otherwise this looks worse than most Kevin Smith movies, and I haven't even thought one was okay.
