An American Carol…

Hot Air has clips from An American Carol. Like Allah, I want it to be good, but I get the impression they showed everything worth watching in the preview….

I saw a trailer for this when I went to see “Death Race” of all things. It actually looks funny to me.

Looks like they have strong parts and not so strong parts. It’ll get panned because the people who support those being spoofed are going to be a bit sensitive. Still want to see it, though.

Also, a movie this hyper-partisan is going to give cover for other conservative movies. “You’ve got conservatives in your movie!” “Well, it’s not as bad as Zucker’s film.”

Besides, AP, don’t take it so seriously. It’s slapstick. It’s either funny or it’s not.

Which lefty hatchet site will be the first to cite the zombie scene as promoting a wingnut “climate of violence”? Media Matters or Think Progress?

Surprise!!

Dennis Hopper in a black robe blowing away ACLU lawyers with a shotgun? There’s your price of admission.

You know, I was iffy on seeing it, but when you’ve got Judge Dennis Hopper blasting ACLU Zombies…

How can you not see it?

I’m with you Allah, I didn’t laugh. I agree with all the points made, but it just did not make me laugh.

I’m in line for this one. The clips looked pretty funny. Just gotta talk hubby into watching the baby for a couple of hours. :)

OT, but just to mention that little Christopher Jacob joined us in the world on August 21. :) Last time I posted on this film, I was still waiting for his arrival.

Can I buy season tickets? Looks like a good one. Be nice if it wins an Oscar, but I’m not holding my breath.

Damn, that was funny stuff. Allah, I do know, I do know.

At least these clips. Chamberlain/Hitler scene. Classic.

I know I’ll see it. ANY movie that pokes Michael Moron is on my list.

I liked the “will you just stop chanting” clip.

Catches the mental level of most liberal rallies.

The reason you aren’t laughing is because you weren’t shocked or surprised, nothing was over-the-top, and nobody was terribly insulted. Compare that to how hard you laughed when you saw the “Film Actors Guild” banners and heard “I So Ronry” for the first time.

If you want to be reassured this will be a funny movie, watch ‘Airplane’ or ‘Naked Gun’ again.

Just remember, according to IMDb, it’s not being released on October 3rd.

(“Nopers, we’ll just ignore it and not acknowledge it and hope it goes away.”)

I hate it when a supposedly neutral site shows it’s insanely left leanings this way. They did the exact same thing with “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed”. Sigh.

I so want this to be funny. But clips don’t make me very hopeful.

I’ll probably go see it anyway, just to help its box office numbers…

I think the movie will do fine.

I think most of the stuff will be lost on libs, I mean I understand the scene regarding Nevil Chamberlain, but I think on most who have been raised in public schools they will be in the total dark as to why Hitler singing a folk song would be funny.

Who the hell listens to the opinion of people who watch movies for living? They fawned all over redacted and the rest and they all tanked.

As long as it doesn’t turn out like Scary Movie 4 it should be pretty good.

Dennis Hopper blowing away liberal zombies with a shotgun?

After I saw that, I stopped caring whether the movie was gonna be good or bad or whatever.

I’m already in the theater, front seat, middle row.

Sorry. Didn’t laugh once. Not even a smile. Now Leslie Nielsen saying, “Sorry, lady. I don’t think I can take another 67 of those…” was funny. But that was how long ago??

Allah, what would you like to see? A conservative version of Redacted?

I laughed at every clip. This one earns my money.

Just a hunch, but I’ve got a feeling this may be a film that a lot of people have been waiting for but never thought they’d ever see made.

Box office surprise?

No matter what, I’m there opening night.

Guess I’ll have to wait for Greg Gutfeld to make a movie.

He has. Let’s just say it was geared toward a very select audience.
