I thought about posting this in the "Last movie you watched" thread but, upon further review, I've decided this trailer deserves it's own thread.

Look, I know it's a kids movie but, Jesus Christ, I don't think I've ever seen a trailer that made a movie seem this bad. Ever.

And this is coming from a guy who watched the "Date Movie" and "Disaster movie" trailers.

I think we're looking at Mr. Johnson's "Suburban Commando" film right here.
 
I didn't need the trailer - the hook was set at Starring Dwayne Johnson, Ashley Judd, Billy Crystal, Julie Andrews and Ryan Sheckler.

That's a cast straight out of an Entourage plot.

Yup, that does look like a steaming pile.

A user at the movie site I frequent said "It's like someone watched the Santa Clause, thought to himself 'I wonder if there's a way to make this same movie but about a different character', lost a tooth s***ing **** and said 'I got it! The Tooth Fairy' and decided to sell the idea to Hollywood."

I couldn't agree more.

BTW, anyone wanna guess how many Razzies this flick wins? I'm setting the bar at 5 and choosing the over.

Oh, you need to see the trailer. It makes Gigli look like an intelligent script.

Oh I saw the trailer - also noticed the film is directed by the guy who used to play Kaptain Kool on Saturday mornings before "moving up" to play Mackenzie Phillips husband on One Day at the Time and directing The Santa Clause 3, Michael Lembeck.
I don't understand why anyone involved in the project signed on. Seems like except for Ryan Sheckler, the film has a been there, done that quality.
 
You know how bad this movie is? I knew exactly what the the trailer was going to be before I even clicked on the thread.

Wife and I saw this trailer in the theater yesterday, and when it was done, we just stared at each other like, "What the **** was that?"

I thought it was a joke.
 
Unless you are all 8-year-olds, your opinions on this are meaningless.

Of course, if Disney thought this movie were any good it wouldn't be released in the middle of January.

You can't handle the tooth !

They stole that from Jamie Foxx in his "In Living Color" days. (Remember Carl "The Tooth" Williams?)
 
Holy crap is that awful. Dwayne Johnson still has a chance to have a career as a legitimate actor, but he has got to stop making **** like that or he'll never get work doing anything else. Then again, maybe he's happy taking his $10 million Disney checks and not doing anything too demanding.
 
This trailer fails the "Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus" test.



Hang in there for the ending, because it is epic.
 
Vince McMahon thoroughly enjoyed that trailer.
One day, movies like that will turn Dwayne Johnson back into The Rock.

I just saw the shark eat a plane and spoil its appetite before eating the Golden Gate Bridge.

But the difference here is, that movie was made FOR the cheese factor. It's like Snakes on a Plane in that regard. If you go to see that, you know it's going to suck balls.

The Tooth Fairy was made as a legit movie for kids. It's going to probably make at least $20 million.

Comparing the two is like comparing apples and cement. They serve different purposes.

And, based on the trailers, which would you rather see? I'd much rather see the Shark vs. Octopus movie than the Rock playing a ****ing tooth fairy.

So did I.

Was going to post it the other day and thought, "Nah, just a huge waste of time".

I always love this idea that you can take an absolutely ridiculous premise and say, "It's OK, it's a kid's movie. Kids are stupid"

All I know is that if my kids were still ten years old, they'd mock the **** out of that trailer

God, I hope so.
