New vid clip from the Robert Rodriguez film “Machete”...really, really not safe for viewing at work.
So not safe I don't even want to post the description. Courtesy of the WWTDD ("What Would Tyler Durden Do") Website: http://www.wwtdd.com/2010/08/machete-is-gonna-be-a-good-movie/

1. I. Will. See. That. Movie!!!
But only because I think Danny Trejo is a fine actor with a near-Shakespearean range. The freakishly hot girl who (WTF did she just do!!) has nothing to do with my interest...

4. There you go, it's Art.
Art with a capital 'Holy fuck that is Awesome!'

Now I'm going to go google up and reread that famously hilarious review of 300, just for the heck of it...

9. Trejo is amazing.
From what I understand, his real life plays a close second to the most extreme of his movie roles...the man's been around the block.

5. Can't wait to see it
i LOVE these kind of flicks.. DeNiro, Jessica Alba (who was AWESOME in The Killer Inside Me - very graphic too), Cheech, Danny Trejo, Jeff Fahey, Michelle Rodriguez, and written/directed by Planet Terror's Robert Rodriguez - I'm in!

6. Viewing at work might not be a problem.
But turn the sound effects down, for the love of mike.

11. That poster is chilling in a number of different ways...
...in the economy of 2009 and 2010, we've all had to become different to some degree. Rodriguez tends to "get" life...in a brutal and bombastic sort of way. But in 2010 I sure as hell am not feeling "the audacity of hope." I am a warrior engaged in trench warfare in order to stay alive from one day to the next.

12. Same here brother
Edited on Wed Sep-01-10 02:45 PM by slay
lots of horror/slasher movies have a liberal political message and unless i'm wrong this one does too. kind of like - "things are pretty fucked up and need to be fixed otherwise things are going to get bad". like bad bad. i'm not feeling the "hope" either these days. but what did The Great One say - "I will get by, I will survive!" :hippie:

13. I wanted to see the movie based on the original trailer.
Everything since the original trailer looks like shit.
