Get Smart

Good idea. Great cast. And not a single funny moment in the trailer:

Comments

Well, I am sure some commenters will agree with you and some, like me, will find that hard to believe: I thought this was a great preveiw and found many funny moments in it.

To move on to a more serious tangent here:
I firmly believe that people's political convictions are to a large part just as ingrained into the basic makeup of their personality (no, I am not getting into HOW that personality came about, i.e. the nature-nurture debate) and largely as irrational and unreflected as, let's say, someone's sense of humour.
...and, therefore, just as impossible to change by argument.

I thought that the "element of surprise" part at the end was pretty funny.

It doesn't look any less funny than the original show which, despite all the funny people attached to it, just wasn't really that funny.

I just hope the bad guys are clear Arab stereotypes - dirty, smelly, pick their teeth with knives, only smile when Christians are in pain, fry and eat caucasian babies - so Jonah Pantload, K-Lo, Sailer and the rest of the Konservative Kritics Korner aren't offended.

I kinda smiled at the "did you see anything while I was dancing?" part.

It could just the Euro trailer. Maybe the US version is more to our liking. Atonement had an awesome trailer and it kind of sucked.

Yeah I thought the phone throw and the dancing line were good. I'll see it.
