I agree that the cast looks great. I wouldn't of thought Foxx was a good match but his part in Due Date gave me renewed faith that he could be funny and we are talking about Due Date.....which went very light on "the funny".

I'm not a fan of premise but it looks fun. Not usually into comedies in that vein.

Me neither, but I liked what I saw.

I like Bateman. Can't stand Jennifer Aniston but can overlook her. Love Spacey especially in dickhead roles and I don't really know why but I've found myself starting to really like Colin Farrell. Even though his role was very small, I loved him in Crazy Heart and I'm hoping he's matured a bit as an actor.

Good trailer. I think it's funny the actors picked to be listed in the thread title over Spacey, Farrell, and Foxx

Yeah....I think maybe once he did New World he started to mature a bit. Did In Bruges a bit after. more recently he did a film w/ Weir.

Picked? It's a simple question of who's the lead and who's supporting.

That is about when he checked into rehab and turned his life around.

from what i see on wikipedia, the film came out in Dec. 2005...Farrell went into Rehab that month as well. So during his Malick film I guess he was still under that addiction. Either way...I'm happy to see his maturation in film.

The movie looks funny but it has one huge wildcard, Produced by Brett Ratner.

I'd love to see on the poster say "From the Director of The King of Kong and Written by Sam Weir from Freaks & Geeks". That would sell millions of tickets.

She's annoying as fuck and not a good actress in my opinion, but she's still damn good looking, so I'm with ya there.

I'm all over this. Sudeikis and Charlie Day together again? Awesome. Farrell with bad combover haircut? Sold. Aniston in lingerie? I'll buy that for a dollar!
