While I really enjoy Patton Oswalt telling jokes about Star Wars and depressing food and secret vagina rooms, it's nice to see him travel without his bag of geek gags for a darker role in BIG FAN.

The indie festival fave comes from the writer of THE WRESTLER and gives a glimpse into the world of disturbingly obsessive sports fanaticism. Oswalt plays an oddball Giants follower who stalks his favorite player one night, leading to a vicious beatdown from said player, and a subsequent heap of moral complications.

Dig the trailer below or in HD at Yahoo.

Extra Tidbit: Besides playing the rodent chef of RATATOUILLE, Oswalt has done voice work for "Kim Possible", "Spongebob Squarepants", "Static Shock", two Batman cartoons and a couple of Grand Theft Auto games.

hes not serious right?
Darin you are being ridiculous. A sequel with mcnabb? WTF.

People keep saying the movie is spoiled, but it could just as easily be the beginning of the movie where he loses a bet or something, he does call into a sports talk show and has a rival called philadelphia phil. You dont know what happened so stop guessing like you saw something in the trailer everyone else didnt see.

From Bishop to McNabb?
At the end, he becomes an Eagles fan? He was wearing a McNabb jersey at the end. I wonder if this trailer was 100% cut chronologically? Seems like it.



If thats the case, SPOILER ALERT. Eagles fan at the end. Probably becomes McNabb's biggest fan and sets up for a sequel with an open ending. The sequel will never be made though, for obvious reasons.



Patton...

Patton Oswalt was good in Ratatouille and King of Queens!

looks pretty good but let's get one thing straight.. I don't give a fuck how much I like a player if he beats my ass I'm suing him for everything he has without a doubt in my mind.

Holy shit
I thought it was just about him getting a starring role in something not 100% comedy. Or kind of a stalker revenge thing. But I shoulda figured with Robert Siegel at the helm it would be a deep character study.



Love Oswalt, his comedy, his little acting bits, he's kinda modest and nasty at the same time.

I've been waiting for this trailer, I think Patton Oswalt is hilarious and this movie looks like it will be good.
