Death Race Re-Make Trailer Raises Questions I’m Not Prepared to Deal With
? Beth Littleford? Really? She left The Daily Show to do this and cracker commercials?
? Am I so stupid as to confuse Beth Littleford and Joan Allen? Apparently, yes. Thank god I now have coffee in me.
? Ian McShane? Really? The man was so awesome in Deadwood?can’t we just give him a stipend so he doesn’t have to appear in stuff like this?
? Are we really still putting “Welcome to the Jungle” in our movie soundtracks?
? There’s no way this will be a good movie, but..could it really still be entertaining?
Heavy thoughts, my friends.
