Big Fan

Just caught the trailer for this here:

I love Patton Oswalt. He is one of my top 5 favorite comedians and this movie just looks like downright win. I'm a passionate, die-hard sports fan, so I know what its like to live and die with a team. I cant imagine dealing with what he goes through in the movie though, but with it being from the writer of The Wrestler, and what looks to be an amazing breakthrough performance for Patton (so late in his career, he broke through a long time ago if you ask me), this movie looks like pure win.

I just hope it gets a wide release because living in Bumfuck, Indiana, I get nothing "artsy" unless it becomes a hit.

This looks really good, the perfect blend of funny and drama.

That was disappointing.

I'm still excited to see it though, because I saw The Wrestler before the trailer was released, and I thought the trailer didn't do the movie justice at all. Debuts can be rough, and I'm not exactly expecting a film on Aronofsky's level necessarily, but this should be good. I'm a big fan (har har) of Patton Oswalt and hope his performance in this is good enough to elevate him to great roles.

That is the strangest preview I've seen in a while. Patton Oswalt in a drama? Talk about something I'd never expect. I might see it just for him. The man has made me laugh hysterically doing his stand-up material.

Looks great. I love Oswalt (one of my favorite comedians too) and this is going to be one of those performances, I can feel it. Also, is Kevin Corrigan in every movie that comes out these days? Guy's everywhere. Looks like a good role for him here also.

I love the trailer, Patton Oswalt really did a great job here. He really showed his passion in sports. When will this be on the big screen? =)
