Every once in a while a major Hollywood studio takes an old cliche and manages to turn out something new and fresh. Maybe it's the combination of a talented director and a charismatic cast, maybe it's brilliant dialog injected into a solid script, but whatever the case, it's nice to see an age old formula seem so exciting. I'm not one for romantic comedies, but I will definitely be in theaters for Green With Envy this Thanksgiving! What do you all think?

I wish I found Jason Segal funny.
Or that the puppets in this trailer had one funny line.

Watch Freaks & Geeks. Muppets are innately funny.

The Muppets are hilarious. But the writing for them here is rubbish.

Well exactly those 5 seconds should be golden, the best of the best.
Right now this whole thing feels like one of those weak Orange ads you get before movies in the UK.

I just watched the trailer again. It's pretty good. Why didn't you all tell me I was too harsh on it?

I hate it again. That 'plot point' line is more tired than a hibernating bear. Wish the original Muppet writers were on this.

But that's ALL the humor of the original movies. "It's just exposition darling, it has to go somewhere."

Just so you know, this whole DJaws/Passell role-reversal routine is freaking me out. But I will not be broken.
