R.V. with Robin Williams
I've seen the commercials. I've seen the posters and now I've read the reviews. This looks like it may be a contender for one of the 10 worst of the year.
Thoughts? Reviews?

That's when I'll begin to support the films she appears in.

Sad that I now would rather see Robin Williams in dramatic roles (though I don't really want to see him in those much, either). He hasn't done anything funny for a long, long time now, imho.

When this movie was announced, I thought it was gonna be really good. Robin Williams (in a real comedy for a surprising change), Barry Sonnenfeld directing (I love Get Shorty, Adams Family, and Men in Black), and it even has both Gob and Buster Bluth in it. I thought it couldn't go wrong, then I saw the trailer. I hope the movie is moderately entertaing (cause I really love Williams, though he looks kinda restrained in this one), but I doubt I'll see it in the theater. The really mediocre reviews definitely aren't helping its cause, either.

Why do all films like this always have a racoon scene of some sort?

The trailer bored me to tears.
The bastard step-child of the original "Vacation"?
Looked that way to me!

LOL. Yeah, I agree, usually hiding in an appliance. Time for a new varmint to hit Hollywood. Enter the badger. The badger is due.

Don't get me wrong, "Benchwarmers" was bad. Very bad. But it did have a couple of funny scenes. I have yet to see any trace of humor in any of the trailers that I've seen for RV.

I admit it does not look good.
I like Cheryl Hines so I've watched her on five talk shows promoting it. I've also seen Kristin Chinoweth on three shows and she's starting to grow on me.
I noticed Robin Williams was doing a bunch of shows (and maybe one or two others) as well. Guess they know it's not gonna be good so they'd better get the promo action going.
