The Long-Awaited TV Spot for 'Disaster Movie'!
Filed under: Comedy, Movie Marketing, Trailers and Clips
I know, you were just dying to see more nibblets from the upcoming Disaster Movie. Right? No? Come on! What's not to like about a bunch of really crappy jokes and a slew of movie spoofs that are lacking even the slightest shimmer of cleverness?After serving us the main trailer, Coming Soon has now thrown up the new TV spot for the film. There's a few repeats in there, like Sex and the City meets Juno meets You Don't Mess with the Zohan, as well as a bunch of new footage ranging from Batman to Amy Winehouse to bullet bending and Wanted. I'm sure that at some point, or somewhere in the film, there'll be an Al Gore look-alike warning about the devastation that could come, but really, most of the spoofs shown don't have much to do with the disaster theme.
Still, the film is supposed to follow a natural disaster meets Cloverfield -- a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event -- asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works -- hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction."

If it wasn't from these morons, that last sentence would actually make this mildly appealing. I could see a really amusing Airplane!/Naked Gun type spoof with people just being assailed by natural disasters and the cliches being played up.
A shame this won't be anything like that.

Ugh. I wish Cinematical would stop spotlighting these films. Just ignore them, they don't deserve to be covered in a blog that celebrates movies. They aren't movies, they are vile garbage.
Don't give them free publicity. Their audiences are so low-brow, no one who watches these movies is going to actually read your article to find out you don't like them. They are just going to see the poster and scream out, "ME EXCITED FOR FUNNEE MOVIE" while smashing things.
