Rush Hour 3 Teaser Hits

... and I, unfortunately, had nothing to throw at my computer. I apologize if I am out of line here, but how many movie trailers am I going to have to watch that feature two characters in the backseat of a car singing along to a song, karaoke-style, while a third person sits confused and baffled? How many, I ask? And how is this not classified as some form of torture, especially when you have Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker screaming the words to Lady Marmalade? God, I feel dirty.
With that said, the first teaser trailer for Rush Hour 3 has officially landed online (or, shall I say, on YouTube), and the thing smells worse than Chris Tucker's ridiculous pay check. Not much to it really -- there's a short intro that features a montage of old war footage explaining how France has basically been pissed on over the years, and then we cut to the aforementioned sing-a-long scene in the back of a car. Yup. Rush Hour 3. Directed by Brett Ratner. And, sadly, the thing will probably make a killing at the box office, prompting Chris Tucker to become the highest paid actor in the history of film. And you thought the end of the world was a long ways off ...
In the pic, which blasts its way into theaters this August 10, our two lovable misfits arrive in Paris where they inadvertently wind up clashing with a Chinese Triad crew. Counting down the seconds, folks ...

Erik, I disagree with you in your lack of excitement for Rush Hour three...the first two were damn good in my opinion and I'm definitely excited for the third. But I absolutely agree with you about how much the trailer sucked. I mean, can't they throw in at least one fight scene for christ's sake? I'm not going to the movie to see those two singing in the back of a car.

I always thought that Chris Tucker didn't want to do a Rush Hour 3 and when asked to name a price, just gave a ridiculous amount, hoping they would go away. Instead, they took him up on it and now he's obliged. I have absolutely no evidence of this, it's just the only way I can see him ending up with so much money for this movie.
