Film “So What Do You Think of the Second Ammendment Now?”

Posted by Erik Henriksen on Wed, Aug 15 at 1:31 PM

Man, I’m excited for Shoot ‘Em Up, the new action flick starring Clive Owen and Paul Giamatti. The trailer playing in theaters now (which you can see here) is great: goofy, pulpy, and badass, it kinda makes me think of what a Sergio Leone/John Woo collaboration might look like. Shit, it just looks fun.

Okay, but if I was excited before, now I’m fucking stoked, since New Line just released an R-rated trailer for the flick, which shows considerably more gunshots, car crashes, Monica Bellucci nakedness, and cheesy one-liners (“Guns don’t kill people… but they sure help”). I’m a sucker for a great action flick, and this one looks pretty damn promising: loud, cool, fun, and unapologetic, with two of the best actors working today swapping quips and bullets at a lightning-quick pace. Yes. Stoked.

that trailer kickstarted my heart

I'm going to Wal-Mart right now and buy a gun.

He kills a guy with a fucking CARROT.

Sign me up. I heart Clive Owen.

I gotta say, I tried to hate it, but then he did that head-on collision with the other car. Flying through the windshield into another car to shoot everybody up... come on! How can I hate that?
