It's Friday, and what a better way to usher in the weekend than to watch a couple of boys talk about not having sex. Moviefone has just unveiled a pretty funny clip from the upcoming teen comedy Sex Drive, featuring a whole bunch of folks like James Marsden, Seth Green and .... finally ... Clark Duke, who makes his big feature debut after starring opposite Michael Cera in those hilarious Clark and Michael web videos. The film, which I've actually heard quite a number of good things about, follows a high school senior who drives across country with his pals in an attempt to meet a girl he met online. The clip (which you can check out over here) is R-rated, which means you will need to fill out one of those age verification forms. Also, check out a bunch of brand new images from the flick below.

Sex Drive hits theaters on October 17.

To paraphrase the scariest horror movie currently in theaters -- Mamma Mia! -- you wait long enough for a red-band trailer and then three come along at once, at least two of which deal with hitting the road in the name of action, so without further ado...

First up is the age-restricted trailer for this week's Death Race. I've yet to watch this one myself, since reactions posted elsewhere have assured me that whatever meager hopes I have for it being just a fun piece of trash cinema -- from a filmmaker who often lives down to that title -- are to be derived from moments shamelessly showcased therein. I'm no prude, having shelf space and soft spots set aside for the man's Event Horizon and the first Resident Evil, for the reliably butt-kicking Jason Statham and for the surprisingly present Joan Allen (him signing up for it, no big surprise, but her?). However, I'm roughly one trailer away (well, one feature away) from giving it the genuine benefit of the doubt.

Erik wrote about the original trailer back in June, and now one only has to wait until this Friday to determine just how fast and spurious this baby is.

After August comes September, and after Death Race comes Righteous Kill. The profanity-spiked red-band trailer for this NYPD thriller has been included after the jump...

So this horny virgin decides that he and his best friend are going to go on a multi-state trip by car in order to meet the hypothetical girl of his dreams... You feel like you've seen this movie already, haven't you? Like, at some point in the eighties, probably on pay cable late at night, but surely, you've sat through this before. Right? Well, whether you have or haven't, get ready to see it all over again, because that's the general thrust of Sex Drive -- or at least its trailer, currently being hosted by the likes of Apple.

Now, I've been assured that director Sean Anders' previous film, Never Been Thawed (about frozen food collectors), is fairly funny; if nothing else, it's a creative and original idea. But I don't see where this one doesn't cross the line from being an '80s sex-romp homage/throwback to just a tepid raunchy-road-trip farce. That could very well be the case, but everything in those two minutes appears to be either contrived (they met online, so he's willing to drive from Chicago to Knoxville for something I'm certain is available elsewhere in Chicago) or wacky, which is so commonly mistaken for funny (our hero's wearing a Mexican donut costume for work! Craaaazzzzzzyyyy!!!).

I've also got to throw in there that James Marsden built up some genuine goodwill with last year's Hairspray and Enchanted. I'll take it on faith that he had already filmed this before those, that he magically knows better now, and that this is merely opening out of ill-fated hopes that someone might mistake this for the next Superbad when it hits screens on October 10 (although having Michael Cera's comedic cohort can't hurt that cause).

The Teeth poster that Erik shared earlier today might have been too risque, but how about an obvious phallic joke? Yesterday, MTV released a poster for Sex Drive, and subtle it ain't. To the right you can see the graphic for the poster (which you can view in its entirety over at MTV). A full-mast sex drive that's coming soon? At the very least, this should be a very good indication of what sort of humor you can expect from the film.

Speaking of, the flick focuses on a kid who meets a girl online, one who sends him the eloquent message: "U Drive All the Way Here 4 Me ... I'll Go All the Way with U." So, of course, the kid hits the road with his friends to do all the things that this poster implies. I sure hope he got other messages to convince him. At the very least, some sort of: "Are you U sure?" "U bet!"

Josh Zuckerman stars as the deluded teen, and is joined by the likes of Amanda Crew, Clark Duke, James Marsden, and Seth Green as an Amish dude.

Here are some Variety casting bites for the next wave of actors and actresses:

• Picking up a role in Lindsay Lohan's I Know Who Killed Me probably wasn't the best move, but Marc Senter is following it up with a number of alternatives. He's got two horror flicks on the way, Wicked Lake and Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever, plus two new films -- Hippy and Ironclad. However, maybe he didn't learn his lesson because it seems that Hippy is a flick starring Lohan. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again!
  
• Next up is 30 Rock's towheaded Cerie, Katrina Bowden. It seems that she's just finished filming Sex Drive with James Marsden. This is that weird teen sex comedy that Jessica blogged about the other day. Unfortunately, there's no word on who she plays -- an object of teen affection, I would assume. Whatever the case, her career is definitely moving forward from her first gig as an actress in a Fall Out Boy music video.
• And last, but not least, we have Johnny Simmons, who is going to get a hand on Jennifer's Body. Yes, he's nabbed himself a lead role in Diablo Cody's pic, although exactly who he is playing remains to be seen. This should be a good balance between all the roles that the new actor has on his plate -- heroes, family flicks, and horror... After his stint as the kid in Evan Almighty, he's filmed The Spirit, and is currently dealing with that Hotel for Dogs.

It's funny, I was just thinking about Seth Green the other day -- not the usual run of things I can assure you, but as I was watching Radio Days, I couldn't help but be impressed by Green's career over the years. But as funny and talented as I think he is, I've got a bad feeling about anything that even remotely involves Fall Out Boy and the somewhat tired premise of a teen sex romp. MTV movie blog recently got the chance to visit the set of the teen/road flick Sex Drive, and scored a closer look at Green and members of the pop-rock band hard at work.

The film centers on a horny teen who takes a road trip with some friends so he can lose his virginity to a girl he knows online -- you know, that old chestnut. The flick was written and directed by Sean Anders, who only has a few credits to his name, but when one of them is a cult comedy about Christian Rock and frozen foods, it tends to stick in your memory. Drive also stars Josh Zuckerman as the aforementioned horny teenager, James Marsden, and Amanda Crew (John Tucker Must Die).

So, you might be wondering what Fall Out Boy has to do with all of this? (Well, other than an appearance on the Sex Drive soundtrack.) Turns out that FOB makes an appearance in the film as themselves, and Green will play an Amish "eccentric" who helps them out when their tour bus breaks down. Wow, this really isn't getting any better is it? But what should I expect from a teen sex comedy with the uninspiring title of Sex Drive? The only bright spot by the looks of things is going to be Green's performance as a whacked out Amish kid who has no intention of ever ending his Rumspringa. Sex Drive is scheduled to arrive in theaters this October.

How far would you go to shack up with someone you met on the internet? Though it's kind of embarrassing to admit (and my fellow Cinematical writers will torture me for this), back in college during my sophomore year I flew all the way to Utah to meet up with a girl I met online. Three months of chatting through a computer screen? Check. Three months of talking on the phone? Check. Pictures? Check. But when I finally went all the way out there, I learned that she and Utah were very different from anything I'd ever experienced in New York. Suffice it to say, after six days of shooting guns, visiting square-dancing clubs, feeding rats to snakes and witnessing more than one fight in a Denny's parking lot, I left Utah and never spoke to her again. But anyway ....

... The Hollywood Reporter tells us Josh Zuckerman (Feast), Amanda Crew and James Marsden will star in Sean Anders' teen sex comedy Sex Drive. The concept? "... an unlucky in love teen meets a girl on the internet who sends him the message "U Drive All the Way Here 4 Me ... I'll Go All the Way with U." Guess what happens next? Yup, our teen, named Ian (Zuckerman), convinces his friends to drive from Chicago to Knoxville so that he can lose his virginity to this girl with a dazzling vocabulary. If Marsden signs on (he's still in talks), he'd be playing Ian's brother. Yeah, so it's like Road Trip meets ... Dateline's To Catch a Predator series? Sweet! Right now it looks like filming will begin by the end of the year off a screenplay written by Anders and John Morris (who's also producing). So, would you drive half-way across the country for that?
