For those of you that think YEAR ONE isn't going to be very funny, these seven new clips from the film aren't going to do much to persuade you. Some of them are particularly bad. Some are at least mildly amusing. I don't think it's going to be an awful film, I just think it's a sense of humor that won't click with the HANGOVER crowd (or those who tire of Michael Cera's schtick).

I realize I'm doing a terrible job convincing you to watch these clips but I'd be lying if I came in singing and dancing about it. I generally like everyone involved with this production and I wish, for their sake, it would do well. But I'm just not feeling it. You?

Could have brought in some money on opening weekend (before people realized how bad it was), had it not been for another comedy out there called The Hangover.

I'm guessing this opens in 3rd place behind Up and Hangover with about $17 million, and followed by Proposal.

At first, I wasn't so sure, but the clip about whores and gamora, actually partly sold me. I still won't see it opening day, but I'm sure it won't be completely and utterly horrible.

I think this movie will do slightly less business than Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist (which pulled in about $31 million total).

it can't possibly be as bad as love guru. can it?
i never saw love guru, but i did see the trailer. i rolled my eyes many times and didn't laugh once. i laughed at the trailer for yr 1.
i love the line about no berries in the fruit salad, so we all lose.

WORST FILM OF THE YEAR SO FAR.
I am a projectionist here in Sydney Australia and I just got home from testing the print and I can confidently say that this is by far the worst film of the year so far. I saw it with 7 other staff members and 5 of them fell asleep. Avoid this at all costs.

sigh
man, ive said it before and ill say it again. this looks like this year's Love Guru.

a declining comedian that a lot of ppl really find annoying (Jack Black/Mike Myers, has anyone else noticed that theyre making the same exact desperate 'arent i funny' face in their respective posters?) a plotline that looks to be conjured up by 10 year olds, and different cameos by celebs who j...

nothing like
watching 30 second commercials to get to 10 second clips.

I read this screenplay, the idea was good, the exectuion is not. Doesnt look funny, will more than likely flop.
