DUE DATE

NO:

  1. I don’t know why Zach Galifianakis has to play a sociopath who dresses weird and carries around a cute animal/child in every movie he’s in.  Maybe it’s Todd Phillips fault, or Hollywood producers’.  Maybe Galifianakis just likes to do it.  After all, he did choose to dress like this for his Absolut “Vodka Movie”.

YES:

  1. I’m impressed that the people who made this trailer had the balls to provide zero plot-related information about this film.  Is Robert Downey Jr. looking for his father?  Do they need to get to LA because someone is having a baby?  The title seems indicative of that, as well as the “keep pushing” slogan at the end of the trailer.  And who is Jamie Foxx in all of this?  I actually like them leaving it completely unanswered, lord knows we’ll be completely overwhelmed by ads and publicity once the film nears its release.
  2. Credit to Galifianakis – he’s the only person who could pull off the “check yourself before you wreck yourself” line and actually make it funny.

Due Date premieres November 5th.
