I saw the preview last night on Terminator 3 and I was completely disheartened by what I saw. I really liked the first one and was anticipating this sequal and despite an incredibly lame, even stupid trailer, I still am but with much lower expectations. It just looks really bad and desperately unfunny. I mean even cringe-inducing. Hopefully the movie ain't nowhere near as bad as the trailer was.
I'm one of the few people on earth who finds Matthew Perry hysterically funny, so I was a bit disappointed by the trailer, too. I'll probably wait for video.

I also found The Whole Ten Yards trailer to be awful, especially after seeing the brilliant trailer for Matchstick Men. I love Willis and Perry, but the humor seems very forced. In the end, I just didn't laugh. The "cease fire", slippers, boob, "that was fun", and breaking the glasses jokes fell flat on their faces. I am NOT looking forward to this one.
P.S. Does anyone else think this is going to be a gigantic bomb? I smell another Analyze That.

Except I really liked Analyze That. I thought that was hilarious. This was just incredibly stupid despite the great cast.
And yeah, Matchstick Men looks great.

yeah I just saw it on-line....I felt like writing a BIG NUMBER and holding it over my head after viewing.....The first one was ORGINAL that didnt rely on laughs. The new installment is just messy and ur just waiting for an applause prompt to cue you as the consumer to please laugh now or else. Natasha Henstridge is HOT! :D. Amanda looks ................egh And Matthew Perry is really lively w/ the humor that was missing in Serving Sara but overall, and I hear somethin and its NOT going to be registers goin ka ching for this movie. :(

Odd, I got the same Analyze That vibe from the trailer too. This movie could be funny but as of now, it looks incredibly lame despite the presence of many good actors wasting their talents in what looks like cash-in trash.
