Paul Hernandez, the creator of Sky High, told me about all the cool stuff that was supposed to be in that movie that Disney didnt shoot or cut. Like Brian Dennehy playing the super powered grandpa. His script for the sequel would have been great if they shot it. When I saw the ZOOM trailer I thought “They should have stuck with Paul and expanded their Sky High franchise”

Of course I wish they would have gren lit his Greatest American Hero script starring Owen Wilson.

John, I remember you ranting and screaming in an audio edition once about how people were excited for a particular film because the trailer looked good. You said trailers are manipulative and cleverly edited to always look good. I agreed with you.

Now, and this IS NOT the first time, I’ve heard you mention how you think a film (that is obviously gonna suck) looks good based on a trailer. Having said that, I kind of agree with you on BOTH points.

Trailers are manipulative, but you can also get a pretty good idea of what the movie is like from them. So, since I agree with you on both points, I don’t even know what the point of this rant is. Just felt like typing I guess.

Ok, I finally watched the trailer. Man, this doesn’t look good at all. It’s way too kiddie, and Tim Allen doesn’t look like he’s having a fun time, like he’s just doing this for a paycheck.

Looks fun…for the most part.

Wasn’t there a rumor about the Galaxy Quest sequel floating around couple of years ago? I might recall incorrectly though.

Has Tim Allen ever done anything good apart from Galaxy Quest and the Toy Story movies?

But Galaxy Quest didn’t have kiddy fart jokes..in fact, it was intended to be PG-13 before the studio cut a few little things out to make it PG

Sky High was pretty good actually, but this looks horrible.

Galaxy Quest was great… Tim Allen hasn’t done anything remotely good since then.

I don’t like Tim Allen. He gets on my nerves. Zoom looks like a Sky High rip-off.

The trailer cracked a couple of smiles for me too. My favourite Allen flick is, by far, “Galaxy Quest”. I think this may have the same sort of charm. At least I hope so!
