I have a feeling this movie would seriously offend me if I watched it.

Bobcat Goldthwait is one of the best directors of Black Comedy today and this looks like it could be his best film.

Part of me went "OK, so while their film was playing in their heads, this is what the characters of Super were actually doing." (though I have not seen Super).

The rest of me was going "OK so this film is what serial killers and school shooter have playing in their heads and considering how dead on that feels I shouldn't laugh but I do. Oh, I do."

Why do I get the feeling either the main character, the girl he's with, or both are going to die.

Halfway through the trailer I got the impression he's going to end up shooting that girl at the end of the movie.

...I feel like this is an abomination to mankind, but I also feel like I really want to watch it. Much as I love satire that Crosses the Line Twice, I am not quite sure how I feel about this. I kinda have an idea of how the film might end, though.

And, as paranoid as this sounds, I'm kinda worried about the audience reaction and if somebody takes the very basic idea of the film to heart.

Meh, either way, sign me up for seeing it.

As morally questionable as the premise is, I gotta say I want to see this, on the grounds of seeing entitled assholes catch lead. That and it looks like a WBC look-a-like group gets mowed down, which makes me want to see this movie.

It's like Asshole Victims: The Movie.

On one hand, it looks like teenage nihilist shit.

On the other, the female lead (moreso, her attitude) gives me a total boner.

I'll watch this.

Good news for you then, I guess, she's 18 (though likely was 17 at the time of filming).

I'll probably love and hate it at the same time.

Love it for the comedy, hate it for the premise. I mean, none of the things in the trailer warranted death.

[up][up][up]But that's where it looks like the comedy comes from, the fact that these are mostly minor annoyances at worst that, while undeserving of death, tend to well up a massive amount of hatred in people for one reason or another.

1: This movie will definitely be full of Disproportionate Retribution.

2:The WBC just might try to sue the entire cast because of their presence in this trailer.

3:This movie will be awesome.

[up] On #2: they tried to picket the Kansas City screening of Red State but Kevin Smith more or less quieted it down by giving the group and family members a pre-screening of the film. Most of the followers walked out after 30 minutes but a few former members (invited due to family relation) stayed and praised the film.
