Finally get a trailer, and I wasn't disappointed.

Bruce Campbell is one of the single most awesome people to ever live. i watch some bad movies just cause he's got a part in them. And this will absolutely rule, so not worried about that.

Yeah, he's the heart and soul of so many terrible movies......Alien Apocalypse comes to mind...

I can't ever really fault him for the movies being bad though. I feel kind of bad he doesn't get better roles though more often. I did love Bubba Hotep though, that was great.

At least they are not calling "They Call Me Bruce" anymore. I can't wait to see it. We have had a few Bruce Campbell events at the art house here and I am hoping they get this one.

Wow.  That looks great! I bet I'll have to wait for the DVD though, as the chances of our cinema (or anyone near me) getting it is slim to none.

hmm I don't know about this one

in a way it seem like it may kill a litte bit of my Bruce fandom. And thats coming from somebody that really liked Man with the Screaming Brain
I really do like pie.

Yeah, it was.  And I actually like Alien Apocalypse...in an ironic sort of way.  "The Great Exterminator" was the only good part of that movie.  Hell, there wasn't even anything else about that movie that even vaguely RESEMBLED good...except perhaps for its blissful crappiness.

I dig Bruce as much as the next geek, but I've gotta admit, that line "Bruce Campbell is the greatest actor of his generation!" makes me feel vaguely nauseous for some reason. Maybe it's the ignorant, shallow, obsequious fanboy inflection behind it.

I have never, ever understood Bruce Campbell fan-dom.  I got nothing against the guy, but all he's done is bad b-movies, and bit parts here & there...just like hundreds of other actors.

I just don't get the appeal.

BTW, that video isn't working anymore.

Well, part of the fun is that he makes fun of himself (and his fans, by virtue of the fact that they're obsessed with HIM, of all people).
