Movie Trailer Tuesday: A Bunch of Trailers

We’ve been a little behind the 8 ball here at Fully Op with life and stuff but we are going to make it up to you starting with today. Not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5 but 6!! No, actually, just 5 trailers! Let’s dive in.

Carrie:

Dre: At this point, you’re either open to the idea of a Carrie remake or you’re not. If you are, this trailer has to please you on some level.

Movie Trailer Tuesday: 2 Guns, White House Down

Let’s skip the formalities and dive in [Ed. note: we usually do].

2 Guns:

Dre: This looks like the sort of dumb fun Hollywood used to excel in when Simpson and Bruckheimer were at the top of their game.

Monday Morning Quarter-Baking: Tattoo

By J. Goodman

I’ve been holding back this MMQB for months. It was the fifth one I wrote and I thought it was soooooo good that I held it back. I wanted it for myself. As if I was going to develop it further and make something of it. Here we are months later and nothing has been developed further. At this point, I give it to you…the peeeeeeple.

No one, gets that reference, right?

[Ed. note: not at all]

Oh, well, here it is.

This is OLYMPUS!!!

By J. Goodman

Last weekend I saw Olympus Has Fallen. I didn’t plan to see Olympus Has Fallen. I wasn’t anticipating its release. What happened was it was Saturday. Someone said, Olympus Has Fallen came out yesterday, are you going to see it? I thought, no. But then I thought, why not. Could be fun. It seemed like an Under Siege movie. I liked Under Siege. What’s not to like about Under Siege?

Monday Morning Quarter-Baking: Movie Games

By J. Goodman

Last week, MMQB was on hiatus. The Quarter-Baking Gods didn’t feel fit to filter their message through me, their Earthbound medium. I prayed and communed all week and still nothing. But my penance was received and this week we’re back hitting you with a fresh, barely worth considering idea.

Oscar Award Winner Picker Recap

By J. Goodman (with a Dre Rivas cameo)

To the victor goes the spoils. Years ago that may have meant something. In the linguistic present, who wants spoils? There’s nothing worse than decaying matter. If that’s what goes to the victor than call me Victoria. Did you get it? Did you get it?

Did you get it?

What I hope was the worst introductory paragraph on this blog, is just a poor segue into the real meat: the results.

Movie Trailer Tuesday: Stories We Tell, Oblivion, Frances Ha

Let’s get to it.

Stories We Tell:

Dre: I wanted to make sure to include this trailer because I know you would crack wise about Sarah Polley, maybe make a reference to Guinevere being stupid or something (it kind of was).

Monday Morning Quarter-Baking: Filmdora

By J. Goodman

I have a dream. That films will one day be as easy to search and discover as music. It’s a simple man’s dream. Like peace on earth, cold fusion and the ability to grow gills for when Waterworld occurs.

If my dream came true, here’s what it would look like:

Showtime Showdown

By J. Goodman & Dre Rivas

J. Goodman: Hey, Dre, want to see who is the best Oscar winner picker?

Dre: Um, not really.

J. Goodman: C’mon, seriously, this will be a fun challenge!

Dre: I’m just f’in with you. I’d love to show the world (aka the 2.4 people who read this blog) how awful your taste in movies is.

J. Goodman: Why can’t a guy enjoy watching Booty Call with Jamie Foxx and Tommy Davidson and not take crap for it.

Dre: Why indeed.

Movie Trailer Tuesday: Monsters University, The Internship

We’re still on holiday mode. So let’s watch some movie trailers. That second sentence doesn’t necessarily follow from the first, but let’s pretend that we make sense on this blog. Lie to me, Jerry! [Ed. note: that also makes no sense.]

Monsters University:

J. Goodman: We have a new Monsters University trailer here. The first one was a teaser. It teased us. Now we have the real thing and we should be very excited, right?

Monday Morning Quarter-Baking: President’s Day

By J. Goodman

Today we celebrate President’s Day, about as pointless of a holiday as Arbor Day. Yay, trees! But if it gets me off work, I’m all for it. I think Valentine’s Day, the day after the Super Bowl, April Fool’s Day, Halloween and my birthday should be National holidays.

I’ve often thought of running for President. I think I have the right mix of idealism, insanity, morals and leadership that the citizenry can rally behind. Plus, like countless kids running for Student Body President, I have some great ideas for our ~~school~~ nation. How great? Quarter-baked great!

Movie Trailer Tuesday: Spiders 3D, Mud

Trailers. We missed you. We called and called. We left you numerous semi-sociopathic voicemails. We apologize. We’re in a better place now. Thanks for not reporting us to the authorities.

Spiders 3D:

J. Goodman: For all the love that is holy. Wow. Impressively awful.

And Now Your Feature Filmstars’ Features

Dre Rivas & J. Goodman

Fully Operational does a lot of rear view reporting. We see movies, we write reviews. We read books, we write reviews. We see movies, find large size screenshots, jazz them up, slap a quote and a watermark across them and call it art.

But we also like to lead the debate. This is one of those times.

Monday Morning Quarter-Baking: Fine Dining

By J. Goodman

I’m sitting in a chair at a table in a simple, understated, yet classy, room. I look around and see that the portions are small. I’m thumbing through a menu. Each entree is $29 minimum. The tasting menu could be described as excessive. The starters are all $10+. The wine list is extensive. The waiters are dressed better than I am. The lights are dim. Off to my left, a husband and wife sit across from their two oblivious, ungrateful children who are also dressed better than I am and each playing on their iPhones. My expectations are high. This is fine dining.
