I like the vibe of what Gunn seems to be going for, it's just that what was in the trailer didn't wow me. Stuff like the bag of dicks banter seemed to be trying too hard. But after watching the great Harley Quinn show my bar is pretty high. He's being really enthusiastic on Twitter and answering everyone's questions etc. so this probably wasn't some deal where the studio shoehorned in a bunch of garbage (like the original Justice League). So for that alone I'll see the movie. Roman fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Mar 27, 2021 |

Comedy is almost universally one of the hardest things to do good trailers for so it's very possible jokes will land better in the final film than in the trailer. (As happens with... so so so many jokes.)

Dick jokes can be very good but an especially long riff on "bag of dicks" seems at once very passé and very lame; I'm sure people excited by comparing rain to "angels splooging" will also love it however.

I'm psyched for it, and I'm never psyched for these. I just hope it doesn't get quip scripted to death like GoG. Felt like every line was constantly elbowing a redditor in the next seat to over guffaw with. trash panda WHEEZE Edit: and yeah, like the computer toucher, a joke couldn't exist without someone reiterating how FUNNY it is.

Do we know which character Taika Waititi is playing the movie? Weasel is played by Sean Gunn and I doubt James would replace him, I guess it might be Starro??Spacebump posted:I think that trailer makes it pretty clear that there is a first team sent made up of TDK, Mongal, Javelin, etc (basically the brightly colored costumed characters with Harley in the previous stuff put out for this.) I think that team clearly gets wrecked and the smaller team of people this trailer focused on are the main team in the film. Yeah if you look through the list of team members throughout the film there's 14 or 15 of them, so there's probably at least 2 teams.

AlternateAccount posted:They fly now?!?! I didn’t mind most of the jokes in the trailer but the angle splooge line was real bad. I cannot come up with a situation where that line would ever be funny to me. And I mean, the bag/beach of dicks joke feels like it fell out of 2012. It was only saved by Cena’s delivery because he has incredible comedic chops.

I will absolutely laugh at stupid humor, but this is so, so forced. Cena does get an A+ for basically trying to spin turds into gold and maybe almost getting there.

I haven't watched Falcon & Winter, is Isaiah Bradley still a Muslim in this show? Although I know about "is this guy bothering you?" and Battlestar offending Bucky.

I don't think he was annoyed on behalf of Battlestar, more that Battlestar had a nickname, so he was clearly trying to be a superhero, too. "Me, I'm Battlestar!" Bucky: "...loving, really? That's it, I'm outta here, god drat loser."

I tend to "head-wank" that when Bucky is sort of staring into space, he's actually glaring at the people in our who decided to name this series Falcon and the Winter Soldier when Bucky specifically made a point rejecting the code name, Winter Soldier, when he took down that Senator.
