...because it's apparently either that or make movies about a deadbeat dad who reconnects with his precocious, smart-mouthed son amid the world of competitive Robot Boxing. For the Shawn "Night At The Museum" Levy.
Dear lord... it's only a TRAILER, but how bad to do you already want to see that fucking kid get crushed by falling debris?
This is technically based on a Richard Matheson story best remembered as a Twilight Zone episode, though presumably without the brutal twist. Yes, it was also the basis of that Simpsons episode you're thinking of.
I hope the whole movie is actually like this trailer, though: Played completely straight and "serious" in the most earnest way possible. Not because it'll make it any better, but because I want to witness the spectacle of the director of "Cheaper by the Dozen" (and STAR of "Zombie Nightmare!") trying to wring pathos out of what amounts to "Rock'Em Sock'Em Robots: The Movie." You have to learn to love the little things.
Oh, and Levy is apparently still the guy WB wants for "The Flash," so... yeah.
And THIS is why Hugh Jackman is so desperate for more "Wolverine" sequels...
