Cop Out (Kevin Smith, 2010)

[Thomas Balkcom]

couldn't find a thread, if there's one, I will delete this.

New trailer

http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/12/23/must-watch-first-official-trailer-for-kevin-smiths-cop-out/

From wiki:

Two veteran cops (Willis and Morgan) are tracking down a stolen vintage baseball card. On the chase, they rescue Gabriela (Ana de la Reguera), dealing with gangsters and their money laundering.


IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1385867/)

[Dr. Acula]

Trailer didn't really do anything for me. Is this the same movie that was originally titled "A Couple of Dicks"?

[mht]

WOW Kevin Smith what the fuck man

[Throwback]

Kevin Smith has sucked for a long time now.

[silentstar1134]

ehhh...i dunno about this :-|

[gilatron5000]

I'll see it. I like that Smith is trying to branch out into projects other than the View Askewnaverse.

[Rawrr]

Will also see it, yes this is what was previously known as "A Couple Of Dicks".

I wonder when that $30/$50 million dollar space movie he's making will come out.

[TJ Wells]

While he can deny it all he wants, I highly doubt he did this for any reason other than to get some cash for Red State.

[dissident]

fuck, this looks horrible.

[jwicklun]

kevin Smith, from now on write your own movies

[Ava1anche]

My name is Kevin Smith.:wave:

[jwicklun]

My name is Kevin Smith.:wave:
cool beans

[deadkidsean]

He didn't write it, Mos didn't produce. I won't be surprised if it sucks. That said, I am a monumental Kevin Smith fanboy, so I'll see it first day.



Could have swore I already made a thread when it was still A Couple of Dicks...hah. Oh well.

[bard]

can't stand kevin smith movies.

[Thomas Balkcom]

did you? I'll gladly delete this if you have. I just couldn't find anything and was surprised there was no thread for it.

[deadkidsean]

did you? I'll gladly delete this if you have. I just couldn't find anything and was surprised there was no thread for it.
Nah, I can't find it lol.

[Thomas Balkcom]

lol I was going to search for threads that you started but your profile is set to private and a search of A Couple of Dicks, Cop Out, and Kevin Smith came up with nothing I just gave up.

[Losthope182]

Trailer doesn't really impress me, but I'll check it out eventually, I've always been a huge Kevin Smith fan.

[Gaugzilla]

Between this and that Steve Carell/Tina Fey comedy, the first half of the year looks to be horrid for the laughs.

[Prestonxsmith]

I thought it didn't look bad :shrug:

[poppa Q]

Will also see it, yes this is what was previously known as "A Couple Of Dicks".

awesome avatar

[JesusV2]

Looks better than Zach and Miri make a Porno

[Alex DiVincenzo]

Not too impressed by the trailer, but I'll check it out when it hits DVD. I'm a casual Smith fan. He's supposed to do a straight horror film, Red State, which I'd be interested to see.

[dissident]

Looks better than Zach and Miri make a Porno

yeah that joke about repeating what the other character is saying looks real fresh.

[Rawrr]

Red State has been in the works forever, and will continue to be in the works forever. He has like, 3 or 4 movies he's working on after this.

[dissident]

that hockey movie is supposed to be his next project now

[StartAngry&Mad]

if its not sketch comedy, Tracy Morgan is NOT funny.

[Colorblind!]

WAIT
Red State is a horror film about Fred Phelps?

...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[And Hours Pass]

I like Kevin Smith, but that trailer did nothing for me.

[andrewa5]

Look like it has some potential to be really funny!

[Prestonxsmith]

And maybe we should wait for a Red Band trailer?

[drudo182]

Thought that trailer made it look awful. Looks like something Martin Lawrence would be in.

[TJ Wells]

Zack and Miri and Clerks II were both great. If you ask me, this is a huge step backwards.

[deadkidsean]

Not too impressed by the trailer, but I'll check it out when it hits DVD. I'm a casual Smith fan. He's supposed to do a straight horror film, Red State, which I'd be interested to see.
Red State has been In the works for the better part of the decade now. He has ZERO funding, which is prly why he took this job.

[deadkidsean]

that hockey movie is supposed to be his next project now

Yep, based on "Hit Somebody." Great song - Mitch Albom is awesome.

[deadkidsean]

WAIT
Red State is a horror film about Fred Phelps?

...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Not at all. It is 'inspired' but a Fred Phelps-like character. Huge, huge difference.

[deadkidsean]

Zack and Miri and Clerks II were both great. If you ask me, this is a huge step backwards.

Again, he didn't write it and Mosier didn't produce, it wasn't his DP, etc. This is just a job he took - but I agree. Clerks II is brilliant and Z&M showed immense progress.

[drudo182]

It will be interesting to see how he handles someone else's material though.

[Anderson]

I like Kevin Smith, but that trailer did nothing for me.

Thought that trailer made it look awful. Looks like something Martin Lawrence would be in.
Like Bad Boys if Will Smith was an old white guy.

[golferpunk1]

Its got some good actors...Bruce willis, Jason Lee and Seann william scott are great. As a big kevin smith fan I was really excited for zach and miri but was very disappointed.

[And Hours Pass]

Like Bad Boys if Will Smith was an old white guy.
It's funy you say that, because I'm watching Bad Boys 2 on tv right now.

[Colorblind!]

Not at all. It is 'inspired' but a Fred Phelps-like character. Huge, huge difference.

Gotcha, I was just cruisin' the IMDB boards to try and figure out and I saw a few people saying "who should play Fred Phelps?"

If it was actually about Fred Phelps I'd be so stoked.

[TJ Wells]

Again, he didn't write it and Mosier didn't produce, it wasn't his DP, etc. This is just a job he took - but I agree. Clerks II is brilliant and Z&M showed immense progress.
No, I know it is. Just saying, going on this movie in general is a step backwards, though I still think he just did it to put together some financing for Red State.

[poppa Q]

ThatKevinSmith

(1/2) @cinemaphile "PLEASE tell me that is just a green-band trailer for an otherwise Red Band movie!" It is. My flicks are always a bitch
ThatKevinSmith

(2/2) to cut trailers for, due to their... colorful language. WB said this trailer tested really well, though. Feedback here's appreciated.


May make some people feel better :shrug:

[Josh Weinstein]

http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2009/12/24/kevin-smith-a-couple-of-dicks-cop-out/

Kevin Smith explains why the title was changed. In short, if it stayed "A Couple of Dicks", TV networks wouldn't advertise before 9pm. That and he learned his lesson with Zack and Miri Make a Porno in that the title alone can affect the movie's advertising.

[showyourteeth]

no thanks

[imtherealdave]

I just don't think Tracy Morgan is funny.

[silentstar1134]

I just don't think Tracy Morgan is funny.

I think Tracy Morgan can be funny at times. But in this movie it almost looks like something his character would play in 30 Rock. The trailer did nothing for me, it just seemed like they were pushing to hard for it to be funny i.e. Tracy Morgan saying "No!" over and over again

[dissident]

if anything, this looks like another big step forward visually for the guy. i'll see it because i'm a fan of his and i'm very interested to see him tackle a big movie with some action in it, which is something he's avoided because of his laziness. but there's no denying he's doing this just for the money and experience.

[deadkidsean]

He had nothing to do with changing the title from A Couple of Dicks, so the 'learning his lesson' thing is inaccurate, but yeah, the part about the tv stations sucks.

[dissident]

as much as i loved the title, he should have changed it himself if he learned anything from his zak and miri experience.

[deadkidsean]

as much as i loved the title, he should have changed it himself if he learned anything from his zak and miri experience.
I agree, but my point is, it isn't his movie so whether or not he wanted it changed doesn't really matter - you know?

[dissident]

i understand. but just because he didn't write it, him being the director does give him a pretty big say in what happens with it no? i mean besides the studio who finance the thing of course.

[deadkidsean]

I'd think so, but I think he pretty much stayed away from it. From the Smodcast where he talked about the title, he just kept saying, "It's not my movie," over and over. Without it being his movie from top to bottom, including the studio (Harvey/Bob let him have 100% control over everything he has ever done with them), I think he just kept his hands off the title situation.


Via @Coyote_Rose (https://twitter.com/Coyote_Rose) "Wait a minute, it's your movie and you can't even announce the title." Not MY movie; a movie I was hired to direct.

[dissident]

i take all that to mean he couldn't give two shits about this and needs to make some dough after the zak and miri disaster. with the big house and all the weed and comic books that guy buys i have to imagine he's hurtin'

[deadkidsean]

He is not the type of cat to take a job that he doesn't give a fuck about. Now, did he take it partially for the money? Likely. That, and he had 'The Itch' to get back into the seat while Mos is pursuing his directorial debut. But I have listened to enough hundreds of hours of him talking to know that he would not take a job that he didn't give a shit about.

As for Z&M, it was his highest grossing movie. It was a disappointment to him based on the numbers he was given that were projected early on, but overall, it was a good critical and financial success. He is not hurting in any way.

i'll do this in bullet points cause i'm drunk:

-i've listened to tons of interviews and Q and A's of him discussing film and everything else, and he very much seems like a guy that in his downtime would take a project just for some cash and the work. saying "he doesn't give a fuck about it" might be a bit strong, but i don't think he's putting THAT much effort into it. he's a very honest guy and holds nothing back when it comes to money and doing something just for the hell of it. he loves bruce willis, and given the opportunity to direct a film with him i think he would do it no matter what
-as for zak and miri, it may have been his highest grossing film but i still don't think he saw much of a profit to his personal bank account because of it. i don't think he's as well off as some may just assume, and i don't think it's out of the question for him to take on this project just for some dough and easy work so he can relax and not have as much stress while he finishes up some touches on red state or whatever else he has in his head and that hockey flick.

also, have you (or anyone else) heard anything about him and bruce having problems on the set? i saw someone mention it on another board, and i know he told a long bruce story on Evening 3 and while he adores him because he's an icon he makes it seem like he's a very difficult person to work with.

[ThisIsNotDan]

eh, looks like I'm gonna get quite a few cheap laughs out of this one. not bad

[Sheldon]

When will people learn, a black guy saying stereotypical black guy things in a steroetypical black guy way isn't really funny.

[heyzombiehitler]

Kevin Smith has been nothing but mediocre at best for awhile. i'm not sure if i'll even bother with this one.

[Prestonxsmith]

I changed my mind on this film after seeing the trailer in theaters. Seriously dude?

[TheOtherAndrew]

While he can deny it all he wants, I highly doubt he did this for any reason other than to get some cash for Red State.
If this is true, I have no problem with it.

[Full Effect Ed]

Awhile? Clerks II is his best film, by far.

Yeah, tell him Steve-Dave!

[deadkidsean]

Yeah, tell him Steve-Dave!
Fuck you, fanboy!

[Talib Scottie]

Awhile? Clerks II is his best film, by far.

Yup, not to mention Z&M, which outside of the Clerks movies, is my favorite.

[Full Effect Ed]

I may be the only person on these boards who really didn't like Z&M, and I'm a HUGE Smith fan. One of my favorite moments was meeting Scott Mosier and Walt Flanagan at the Secret Stash store when I was there about 8 or 9 years ago.

[namembal]

I don't get all the hate.

I wonder what role Brody is going to be playing.

Walt runs it lol but I'd shit if I saw Mos there. I like him more than KS on Smod (although both rule). The episodes with Bryan and Walt are some of the funniest in Smod history, too, bc those 3 guys have been friends for so damn long.

[mht]

clerks II is probably his shittiest movie prior to this Cop shitter coming out. you gotta be kidding me. Clerks II was fucking god awful

[dissident]

it had a lot of laughs when i first watched it, but anything will make a stoned 18 year old giggle. besides a couple of parts it hasn't held up well at all. the acting is atrocious and the dialogue is unusually awkward and forced. i thought zak and miri was a fantastic rebound though and showed he still had the chops and could make a movie with heart that was funny and still felt honest.

[Full Effect Ed]

clerks II is probably his shittiest movie prior to this Cop shitter coming out. you gotta be kidding me. Clerks II was fucking god awful

You probably found Paul Blart to be funny as fuck then

[mht]

yes a 25 year old laughing at pussy and dick jokes in Clerks II, I bet you feel proud

[dissident]

You probably found Paul Blart to be funny as fuck then

actually when i think of people who think clerks 2 is hysterical i think of paul blart fans. broad, lowest common denominator humor except for a couple nerd jokes about the trilogies that were already tired in the first place because they were a part of his act for years leading up to the movie.

[mht]

i was saying it's certainly not the best work on his resume that he has made, I think it's probably the worst by a long a shot. But obviously that 25 year old from Baltimore that still giggles at vagina and lord of the rings jokes while probably listening to Trapped Under Ice can't comprehend.

[dissident]

nothing makes a nerdy mouth breathing simpleton giggle more than jokes about hobbits cumming on each other.

[mht]

hahahaha


Clerks was so much better

[dissident]

i have a hard time sitting through that too. not because it's necessarily bad, i mean it's fine for what it is and what little he had to work with. but it's just so dated and i get bored very quickly with it. chasing amy, mallrats, and zak and miri are his gems.

[mht]

you are right it is dated but i can actually watch that one straight through unlike Clerks II

[josepablo32]

I didn't like the trailer. Clerks is my favorite Kevin Smith film.

[Guern1ca]

Flick is screening GREAT. Everyone admits how bad the trailer is and then goes on to gush about the film. Smith has spoken so highly of it the past few days - I have zero doubts, now, that this will rule.

Where'd your post go about a red band trailer, Ian? DEFINITELY agree.

Whether or not the trailer sucks overall...

The part where the KRS One comes in is fucking epic. I love it.

[deadkidsean]

I was already excited as fugg, but here's a red band: http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/news/cop-out-red-band-trailer-neilm.php


Shit is hilarious man. Definitely feels like a KS flick (i.e. blowjob joke).

I was dying when SWS said Tracy's wife was getting double penetrated hahah

[Galedeep]

Red Band trailer was much better. Much, much better.

Red Band trailer was much better. Much, much better.

I expected it to be better, for sure, but it was even better than I thought it'd be.

[Full Effect Ed]

He kept quoting different films during the interrogation LOL

[popdisaster00]

haha redband trailer just made this film look SO much better

[Thomas Balkcom]

that trailer was amazing.

[Wake Up]

I kinda wanna see this movie after the redband

[Thomas Balkcom]

Not a one of my friends wants to see this, looks like I will be enjoying it on my own.

[jwicklun]

my faith was restored in this movie when I saw the red band. Now I am seeing this.

[bard]

the red band trailer must be pretty great (can't see it at work) because the first trailer was horrendous. weird.

[Prestonxsmith]

This looks fucking fantastic.

[MyNameIsRoss]

do want

[Losthope182]

Red band makes me very excited to see this. I just finished the last Smodcast I hadn't listened to yet this morning, so it looks like my daily dose of Kevin Smith is over now.

[Recovery Room]

Bruce Willis and Rashida Jones sell it for me.

[MILFCORE]

The redband trailer was HILARIOUS.
Couldn't stop laughing at the dick part.


knock knock

I'm glad Tracy is still insane

dude still cracks me up...

[CstSnow]

Just saw the redband, funny stuff. I hope this does huge business so that Kev has the clout to get red state or whatever else made without having to answer to anyone.

[drudo182]

Just watched the red band trailer and thought it was really funny. Looking forward to seeing this one. Not sure if I'll see this or The Crazies first though.

[deadkidsean]

First RT review is in and it's fresh! From a top critic, nonetheless.

[mht]

knock knock

who's there


orange....


lol i dont give a fuck i love some sean william scott

Haha, are you serious? That's sad. And this is coming from a guy who often lives and dies by critics.

I just wanted to come in here and say Rex Reed is an enormous fucking asshole. Ok, you didn't like the movie, fine. No reason to be a goddamn prick about it.

[Full Effect Ed]

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/cop_out/

you're going to turn away from a potentially funny film because of a hand full of "critics"?

[eraserhead]

This looks shitty.

Apologies in advance to all the Kevin Smith fanboys in this thread.

[deadkidsean]

I'm still really excited. I don't expect it to be in Oscar contention but there are few trailers that actually
make me laugh pretty hard and this one did. Even if it wasn't to support KS I'd still see it. I think he really does dig the material but he's also getting his cash up for HIS OWN stuff in the near future.

[jbaseball44]

This looks shitty.

Apologies in advance to all the Kevin Smith fanboys in this thread.
I like Kevin Smith quite a bit and still think this is going to be pretty shitty.

[*crying stars*]

I'm still interested in watching it, since I was expecting mixed reviews, to be honest.

I think he really does dig the material but he's also getting his cash up for HIS OWN stuff in the near future.

I was watching a bunch of Kevin Smith Q&As on Youtube, and he mentioned that this movie was something he think his dad would have dug, since his dad never really loved any of Kevin's movies. Also, I'm excited to see what he's up to next. He's an interesting character.

[Smash Adams]

It was a black list script so I don't see how it could be that bad, still will probably wait and watch it on HBO in a year and a half

[MyNameIsRoss]

have (very) low expectations, so maybe ill dig this

I think I misstate myself too much, I no longer want to see the film. Although, I probably will.

Clearly you haven't read "Prisoners." Fact of the matter is most of the scripts on the black-list are mediocre at best. Producers like them because they're MONEYMAKERS, not good scripts.

I can't read scripts personally since I like things catching me off guard when I first watch a movie
that makes sense though, thanks for informing me

[TJ Wells]

Yup. Prisoners sounded like it might be an interesting premise, so I read it. HUGE mistake. Fucking terrible, with an awful "twist." But what do you know? DICAPRIO of all people has signed on to star. Let's just say he seems about twenty years to young for the role, and that's the least of the problems.

[Recovery Room]

This is getting torn apart everywhere I look.

[deadkidsean]

Just got out. Flick fucking ruled man. It was a funny ass popcorn movie. Everyone go see for yourself and don't let RT keep you from having a bit of fun.

I figured this...Tracy is so hilarious. I want to see Shutter and Crazies too though so I'm not sure where to take it

[Prestonxsmith]

Just got out. Flick fucking ruled man. It was a funny ass popcorn movie. Everyone go see for yourself and don't let RT keep you from having a bit of fun.

Yeah, I agree with this statement. It seems like all the critics who hated this movie say they hated it because it had Tracy Morgan in it.

[duhpunk]

critics are fucking retarded. this movie provided constant lolz

[Drew Beringer]

movie ruled. Tracy Morgan was amazing, as was SWS and even Adam Brody played his role well. Sean William Scott stole the show for me though.

[catherinexhimel]

This movie looks hilarious. I can't wait to go see it.

[Until The Bombs]

Movie was terribly written and directed. Smith shouldn't go near these types of movies, but Tracy was so great.

[deadkidsean]

$18.5 projected. #2.

[drudo182]

Not bad. Beat out The Crazies and was behind Shutter Island.

Gonna try and see this one next week.

[WakingTheMisery]

I can't be the only person who finds Morgan unfunny.

[jbaseball44]

I can't be the only person who finds Morgan unfunny.
I find him painfully unfunny.

[drudo182]

With the right setting, I think he can be great. 30 Rock is an example.

[WakingTheMisery]

I don't like 30 Rock, so I can't really agree. I liked him on SNL is years passed but it may have been my own immaturity that found that funny. :shrug:

[Until The Bombs]

Hated him on SNL.

[drudo182]

I thought he was pretty funny on SNL too.

[surfwaxsideshow]

This wasn't very good. It's not a terrible movie, but it's not that funny, either. I wanted to like it, and it was certainly watchable, but nothing really made me laugh out loud.

It could've been a lot better, which is kind of funny considering that when I first heard about it, I thought it sounded stupid with potential to be really funny. In reality, it was a pretty fun premise that just didn't deliver in terms of humor. Either way, this thing is going to be all over network tv in 2.5 years.

[Thomas Balkcom]

Coming to DVD July 20, 2010: http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/cop-out.html

[Guern1ca]

Awesome. Kev keeps talking about how incredible the Blu-ray is for it, as far as features goes. Will buy despite h8rs.

[Drew Beringer]

really liked the movie, really wish I had a blu ray player

[poppa Q]

Movie was pretty fucking bad. Script was AWFUL. Actors sold some of the unfunny jokes and Kevin Smith kept this from being a disaster, but there were as many BAD moments as laughs.

[Drew Beringer]

well yeah, in no way was this a good movie, but I still laughed my ass off in the theaters. Tracy Morgan can make the most mundane lines seem funny because of the way he talks/his delivery.

[poppa Q]

*Pretty fucking average, I should have said. I really like Morgan, but he's such a limited actor. The scene in their bosses office (bear with me, saw it in theaters months ago) when I was still wearing the chicken suit or whatever and they were suspended...I was hurt by his acting, haha. It was kind of embarrassing. That's not his thing, though.

[Guern1ca]

yeah i dont care if it's a "bad movie." I laughed almost the entire time.

[josepablo32]

well yeah, in no way was this a good movie, but I still laughed my ass off in the theaters. Tracy Morgan can make the most mundane lines seem funny because of the way he talks/his delivery.

Nice avatar, Drew.

[Drew Beringer]

yeah i dont care if it's a "bad movie." I laughed almost the entire time.
the scene where Morgan and Willis are hiding in the sand watching Sean William Scott break into that house, I was dying.

[Losthope182]

Finally watched this tonight. I really wanted to love it, but the script wasn't there. There were definitely some funny parts, but I was expecting more because I love the cast and am a big Smith fan. I'm going to give it another watch in a couple days and hopefully I like it more on second viewing. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for it tonight.

[Prestonxsmith]

Movie was pretty fucking bad. Script was AWFUL. Actors sold some of the unfunny jokes and Kevin Smith kept this from being a disaster, but there were as many BAD moments as laughs.

From what I heard, Smith wasn't that big of a fan of the script either. He actually had the actors improv, which is new for him.
