Another Awful 'Pink Panther 2' Trailer

DateThursday, December 25, 2008 at 10:52PM
I wish you wouldn't blame me but you probably will: Here's a second trailer for the upcoming national nightmare, The Pink Panther 2.

I'd like to propose an arrangement with the artist formerly known as Steve Martin. I've done no research on this yet to see exactly how it would shake out, but I think we should present your filmography to a panel of independent judges and for every malodorous pile of cinematic garbage you've gladly accepted millions to make, we take back one of your good, very good, or great films. Obviously, the worst the offense, the better the contribution that is stripped from you. So, for every Mixed Nuts or The Pink Panther, you have to surrender Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid or Roxanne.

Unfortunately, I think what we'd find is that you're in debt to your audience, Mr. Martin, a terrible place for an entertainer to be. Likely, your march of shame would resemble Navin Johnson's exodus from his mansion at the end of The Jerk. I hope you can find that paddle ball.

Here's the trailer for Martin's latest opus:

The Pink Panther 2, directed by the same guy who made Agent Cody Banks, will be out on February 6th.

An interesting debate, who else has made so many bad movies we are beginning to forget the good ones. I'd say another recent example is Al Pacino. He may not quite have tipped the scales yet, but he's getting there.

How do YOU get off saying that somebody is a horrible filmaker when every actor there ever was has made a bad movie except one. So don't go around and calling names of who is the worst actor or actress or not. Steve Martin has made a few bombs. Al Pacino has made a few bombs. Who ever that you watch and like and idolize has made a few bombs but it doesnt make them a bad actor or for you to label them as the old term was "box-office poison'.
