Get Smart

[hammerhedd11]

agreed... i am so sick of steve carrell... i haven't liked him in anything except the 40 year old virgin, and a few episodes of the office, where he isn't acting like a complete *****e.

in most of his roles, though, he just has this air of unlikability about him.

...That's the whole point of his character...

This movie is getting a lot of advertisement on children's shows, mostly cartoons. I guess it's not that crude that families can't go see it.

When does it come out again? I'll probably check it out.

Anne Hathaway looks gorgeous in this

 

[Darkfly]

i, for one, am pretty psyched about it... i've been a huge fan of the original Get Smart TV series for years, and i have the mega-boxset that contains all 5 seasons of that in a case that looks like a phonebooth... i know this won't be the same without Don Adams - his voice was half the character, really - but i'm trying to stay optimistic, and i think Carell has the ability to pull it all off, as long as it's well written... one of the reasons the old show worked so well, IMO, is that it had layers... one layer was the slapstick and catchphrases, but there was also satire and parody underneath... a little something for everyone! if the movie's writers follow in the footsteps of the originals, this'll be great, but if all they do is focus on one aspect or another, i'm afraid it'll fall flat like the other revisions of the series have done... The Nude Bomb, well, bombed, and so did the 1995 TV series (with Andy Dick as Max's son)... the best we've seen so far was the "Get Smart Again" special from the '80s, and it definitely could have been improved upon, though it did at least feel like it belonged...

Carell's definitely got some big shoes to fill, but i'm trying to be positive and hope for the best, and all that...

btw, i didn't read back through the thread to see if anyone mentioned it yet or not, but both The Nude Bomb and the 1995 Get Smart TV show are being released on DVD for the first time ever this June, before the new movie comes out... they're also releasing (on July 1) another original (direct-to-DVD) called "Bruce and Lloyd Out of Control" or something like that, which focuses on these "gedget-meisters" from the Carell movie... i dunno how good it can be without the Max character, but it's an interesting promo idea...

Damn, Steve Carrell getting together with Hathaway is disappointing.

 

[Dave McFly]

dang, Anne looks super hot in this (LOVE the 1st picture), cannot WAIT to see this this month t:

 

[hpwiz89]

Well I am actually excited to see this movie and will see it in theatres. Hopefully it will be good cause it looks funny in my opinion.

 

[nocomics]

I'll probably check this movie out when it comes out. I like Carrel(sp)l,and it does have the Rock /shrug..I was a fan of the tv series,but this reaks of Pink Panther or Mr. Bean type comedy...

Damn, Steve Carrell getting together with Hathaway is disappointing.

I think it's a little weird. What's the age difference there?

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

When does it come out again? I'll probably check it out.

Anne Hathaway looks gorgeous in this

She looks gorgeous in EVERYTHING.

Not for Carrell.

She looks gorgeous in EVERYTHING.

And Nothing i'd imagine.

 

[Manic]

I think it's a little weird. What's the age difference there?

Exactly 20 years.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

dang, Anne looks super hot in this (LOVE the 1st picture), cannot WAIT to see this this month t:

Yeah I was never really a fan of her's but yeah i will say she looks damn good in it.

 

[TheVileOne]

Carrell is like 20 years older than Hathaway. He's almost old enough to be her father.

 

[Clouseau]

Don Adams was 9 years older than Barbara Feldon, and that worked fine... watching the show, you never would think about it if you didn't know... same applies here... their ages never crossed my mind before, and i doubt it will again after i finish this post...

I say Get Smart easily.

 

[Octoberist]

and if Warner Bros is smart, they should premier the new Dark Knight trailer with Get Smart (and release it online on Sunday).

Not to say that they will be another Dark Knight trailer, but since the viral sites are active again, it's a good bet.
