Looks good IMO. Now I have a movie to look forward to for 2008.

Sounds like a good choice

 

[Cabages]

Ya, it does look pretty good.

I just hate the roles where hes meant to be a complete idiot, and im hoping this isnt one of them.

 

[RichieZ]

o man i remember watching this show as a kid on nick at nite, its mad funny

 

[TheChort]

anyone notice the person he throws the phone at is Borat's assistant, Azumat (sp?)

 

[Platypus]

He looks the part, hopefully he doesn't fuck up the speech pattern/style

This is going to be the second best movie I've ever seen.

[Enemy holding a gun to Maxwell Smart]
Smart: We have the place surround by the entire police force.
Enemy: I don't believe you Mr. Smart
Smart: Well, how about half the police force?
Enemy:Nope
Smart: 3 cop cars with riot gear?
Enemy:No
Smart: Would you believe 2 girl scouts and a seeing eye dog?

Don't know about the movie but the casting of Carell as Smart is inspired.

I will be highly disappointed if the Cone of Silence doesn't appear in the film.

This movie has potential...

 

[Linflas]

If Mel Brooks and Buck Henry are involved in this then it has potential. I see them listed under the writing credits at IMDB for characters but don't know if that is due to crediting them for the original series or if they are actively involved in the movie as well.

Well the movie had potential until Steve Carell showed up. I can't stand him.

 

[MrChad]

I saw the trailer for this when my wife and I went to Harry Potter last week. I normally hate these rehash movies, but this one looks pretty funny so far.

 

[Juno]

yes, another mel brooks film!!

Interesting, Dwayne Johnson has completely dropped The Rock from his name now (at least in this movie anyways)

Probably a good move is he really wants to be an actor. I can't image the words "And the oscar goes to ....... THE ROCK!" ever being spoken.

he retired from wrestling so there's no point in bearing "the rock" name. the only wrestler that still bears name for ages is hulk hogan, his real name is terry bollea.

It's been dropped for a while now. Though, they'll sometimes bring up "The Rock" to promote the film.
