Looking forward to that Ti West film. Sounds interesting.

I liked Bridesmaids, but I really hope they don't go through with a sequel.

Although I wasn't a fan of We Need To Talk About Kevin when I watched it, that poster is really cool.

I think Jeff Who Lives At Home is currently my most anticipated film for 2012.

my excitement for Jeff Who Lives at Home definitely increased a good bit by that trailer. Looks fantastic.

Funny that the thing I'm most excited about from the above news is a film score.

The trailer was really awesome. I knew it would be good, but the trailer raised my expectations.

Battleground is Hulu's first series, not Neflix's.

Zack Haughton · 10:10 AM on 01/22/12 #9

Battleground is a Hulu original series, not Netflix. Also looks half decent

Tim McCall · 10:26 AM on 01/22/12 #10

Aw, I miss when this 'article' was full of information.

Expendables 2 pg-13? The awesome thing about the first one was over the top violence and all the blood. I'd love to see Norris punch a hole through a guys stomache

**domotime2** · 10:55 AM on 01/22/12 #12

hahaha now expendabels is pg-13....more reason to never ever see it.

**aolsux** · 12:33 PM on 01/22/12 #13

Chuck Norris is kind of a pussy. He wouldn't like language like that.

**Losthope182** · 01:13 PM on 01/22/12 #14

Even more excited for Jeff Who Lives at Home after that trailer.

**PirateSkater182** · 02:19 PM on 01/22/12 #15

As a Texan who has met Chuck Norris a few times, I have to say I'm dissapointed in him for the PG-13.
