We already know there are three inherently funny things about Will Ferrell: 1. His fantastic ability to channel the petulance of children, 2. His overgrown, rotten-pear-shaped bared torso, and 3. His cocky display of arrogance at being the undeserved best in his trivial field.
All these funny factors are present in this trailer for Blades of Glory, but like many of his comedic endeavors, the shtick has gotten old. What I want to see more of is the comedic power-couple Amy Poehler and Will Arnett. There seems to be infinite potential for the wedded duo to rival Ferrell and Heder's man-on-man team.
As a consumer of comedy, there is no doubt that I am excited for a flick that features not one, but four of the most notable comedians this decade. But from the look of the trailer, I have a feeling I am going to walk out of the theater knowing that everybody involved could do better than this seemingly re-hashed, over-done comedy routine.
