TWO GREAT TRAILERS FROM GALIFIANAKIS

It might be a good week to be Zach Galifianakis because he had two different trailers released this week, both looking like they are going to be great.

The first is "It's Kind of A Funny Story". The film is about a teen who is misdiagnosed and sent to the mental ward of a hospital. The juvenile area is being renovated so he's placed with the adult patients. Galifianakis plays an adult patient who befriends our protagonist and helps him along his way to realizing maybe he's not crazy and in turn realizes a little something about himself.

I think this looks like a really great, feel good film. I especially like it because it has Galifianakis playing a somewhat different role than normal. I really hope he doesn't keep with the same old act from The Hangover. That seems to always kill careers when actors can't branch out, *couch* Will Ferrell *cough* Adam Sandler.

The trailers will be cut off due to the format of Blogger, but you'll get most of the screen.







The second film is Due Date and stars Robert Downey Jr., Zach Galifianakis and Jamie Foxx. The story is about Peter Highman who is trying to get home in time for the birth of his first child. Along the way he picks up Galifianakis's character and a crazy road trip follows.

This looks ok, but it looks a little along the lines of The Hangover and Galifianakis seems to be playing the exact same character from The Hangover. I have no doubt this will funny though, just a little unoriginal.
