'The Men Who Stare at Goats' trailer: Enlist us, George Clooney!

The trailer for The Men Who Stare At Goats is out, and sweet Clooney in heaven, I can’t wait to see this film:

The fact that this movie is based on true stories is both hilarious and extremely frightening. Also a little freakydeaky? George Clooney keeps talking about being a Jedi, but he’s talking to Ewan McGregor! Worlds colliding, y’all.

I can’t hear the word goat without linking to my all-time favorite Mr. Show sketch, so here’s Grass Valley Greg and his tofutti breaks [warning: the video contains some grown-up language]. Anyway, The Men Who Stare at Goats looks awesome, right, PopWatchers? I mean, Clooney, Spacey, McGregor, Bridges? Yahtzee?

    well, it’s been a long 8 months since The Wrestler and Gran Torino. (a loud flick about robots! another flick about robots…even LOUDER!!) finally a movie that looks good.

    Not just any Bridges, either — a particularly Dude-esque Bridges. This movie is rocketing to the top of my must-see list.

    The joke in a George Clooney with goats is that the name of Gene Wilder’s character in Everything You Wanted To Know About Sex (But Were Afraid To Ask) who liked to have sex with goats was Doug Ross, the same name as Clooney’s character in ER.

      Wow, great trivia! I remember seeing that in the theater when I was a teenager and thinking the whole movie was hilarious. Not sure it would still crack me up, although the final segment was classic.

    this looks awesome! but does anyone else think that ewan mcgregor should NOT do american accents – they always come out a little off. love him though!

    • Danielle

      Yes! I so want to see the movie but all during the trailer I was like “What is with Ewan’s accent?” I too love him though.

    The second I looked at the cast list I was like “I MUST see this film!” Clooney, McGregor, Spacey, and Bridges. I’m sold.

    I think Ewan is awesome in everything.I thought he sounded pretty good as far as the accent goes. (But I’m Canadian) I can’t wait for this movie. What a great cast.
