An Official "Cinco de Mayo" Trailer for Robert Rodriguez's "Machete"

[AristotleP]

Hey folks, Harry here and earlier today Robert Rodriguez and Danny Trejo dropped by my house with a package. Rodriguez is calling this his "Illegal" trailer. You see, Robert talked Fox into letting him put together a Cinco De Mayo message for ARIZONA - given. Well, the way things are in Arizona at this moment - it is kinda insane that there is a movie that was shot over a year ago waiting to be released that is about - THIS EXACT ISSUE... but if, Danny Trejo and buddies went Revolution Wacko as a result.

Make no bones about it, this is a pure Mexploitation film, but like real exploitation at its height, that s**t was pulled straight out of the headlines, even sometimes slightly before the headlines were the headlines. Frankly - that's just kinda cool. We've all known about this silly fun project of Robert's for a while, but then... an entire f**king state just goes f**king nuts... And us being Texans - we're usually quite aware of the lunacy of our surroundings here. But really, ARIZONA... what the hell?

Brilliant cast. Horribly made.

Rodriguez needed to direct, he makes it look easy, but we can see from passing it over, it ain't.

Horribly made? Huh? I think that's the style man.

Didn't Rodriguez co direct or someting?

[Sheridan Passell]

The fake trailer with Grindhouse was well made, this isn't.

I agree with dalmatian. Be quiet Sheridan   

[Sheridan Passell]

Wellll I want it to be good, and I hope I'm wrong (it has to happen some day). I love the whole Grindhouse thing, and I enjoyed Planet Terror a lot.

But... I'm not the only one saying it, the insider buzz from Tinseltown is that the movie is poor.
