How to Lose Friends and Alienate People trailer

The Official Trailer: How to Lose Friends and Alienate People

July 28, 2008

"Based on the true story of a real idiot."

The teaser for How to Lose Friends and Alienate People was kinda "meh" and the international trailer was downright odd. Now we have the "official" trailer for us Americans who are curious about this movie starring Simon Pegg, Megan Fox, Jeff Bridges, and Kirsten Dunst, and I have to say it is definitely an improvement. I didn't necessarily laugh at any of the moments that are supposed to be funny, but at least I can figure out what to expect from this film.

Based on the true-life story of author Toby Young, the movie looks a touch forced. Still, I adore Simon Pegg (who I recently got to interview — stay tuned for that!) and want to keep an open mind until it opens October 3.

Oh look, everyone. It's the new Ben Stiller. I mean--the new Will Farrell.

Shaun of the Dead rocks! Dont' care if megan or kirsten or whomever stars, if Simon Pegg's in it, I'm checking it out! I was able to withstand Hot Fuzz (sorry, didn't like it that much), I'm thinking this one will fare better.

oh you lucky duck Buzz! I love his humour, especially in Shaun Of The Dead. That was hilarious.

I'm actually a bit concerned - loved the book but this doesn't look like it's that funny.

If it has Simon Pegg in it, I'll see it. :)

Hmm...I don't if I will see this. Did Megan Fox jumping into the pool with her dress on remind you of Angelina jumping into the pool after the Golden Globes afterparty? No? Just me, I guess... :D

I do like Simon Pegg, I saw this preview but I'm not exactly sure which movie I was seeing at the time. I thought it looked really good even if Megan Fox is in it.

Well, I'll see anything with Simon Pegg in it, which is the only reason I'll see this. But I think I'm looking forward to Buzz's interview with him even more!!
