But I must say, it looks like it could be the right kind of stupid. The idea of the movie (a group of friends travel back to the 1980s while drunk in a hot tub) is so ludicrous, and the name of the movie (Hot Tub Time Machine) is so ridiculous, and the cast of the movie (John Cusack, Craig Robinson, Chevy Chase, etc.) is so diverse, I can’t help but think that this could surprise some people in the same way that The Hangover did this past summer. Then again, maybe not – but hell, even if I knew nothing about this movie besides the name, I would feel obligated to go see it.
Yes, the jokes are lame but damned it if I didn’t laugh through much of this trailer. I’m game.
Agreed, plus any film that resurrects Chevy Chase is fine by me!
I really enjoyed Darryl’s “Office” look at the camera after he says it’s a hot tub time machine.
