Watchin' Trailerz with Doug (Week of February 21)

OSCARS!!! YAY!!! Or, wait ... no? I mean, we're ALL excited about the 83rd annual Academy Awards (no a'doy), but, really, it's getting a little out of hand. It's 2011 -- do we still care about dresses and pageantry and Jack Nicholson's sunglasses? Is Bruce Vilanch still relevant? Or funny? UGH. REGARDLESS, we here at F This Movie! will be live-tweeting the broadcast this Sunday, Feb. 27, from the comfort of JB's house. Jealous? Well, you don't need to be! Just follow our Twitter feed and laugh along with us!

Bad Teacher
Release date: June 17, 2011



This trailer is NSFW (headphones up!), but it's also pretty funny. RED BAND in the HOUSE! Cameron Diaz plays a "bad" "teacher," who, upon meeting Justin Timberlake, wants to be the BEST teacher in order to win a cash bonus that will enable her to buy breast implants, which, she hopes, will make JT love her. Pretty airtight plot synopsis, if I don't say so myself. Also, Phyllis from The Office, and Jason Segal, who ROCKS. Speaking of Jason Segal, when is The Muppets coming out?

Hesher
Release date: April 2011



Natalie Portman again? Oh brother. This movie first screened at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2010[!], but it doesn't have a firm release date yet. In the film, Joseph Gordon-Levitt channels his recently deceased brother, Burning Dan. Some question whether or not this is a legitimate trailer, but who cares! It looks interesting, albeit a little (as JB would say) Indie Precious[tm].

Arthur
Release date: April 8, 2011



I'm feeling a little lazy today (boo!), so I will again defer to Patrick and his wonderfully written review of this trailer on his About.com Comedians site, here. Personally, I'm looking forward to Russell Brand's remake of Arthur 2: On the Rocks, in which Katy Perry demands to adopt a baby from a washed up Aldous Snow (huh?).
