17 Again Poster Online
Posted by Rodneyon 05. 02. 2009in News Chat
I don’t mind Zac Efron at all and I find myself liking stuff he happens to be in, so I think its a good fit to put him across from one of my favourite comedy actor Matthew Perry. Sadly Perry will only play the older version of Efron’s character as this floundering 30 something is magically transformed into a 17 year old for a second shot at getting his life back together.
Also in this film is Michelle Trachtenberg and Leslie Mann, so there will be plenty of adult and teen girly hotness around too.
Almost 20 years later, Mike’s glory days are decidedly behind him. His marriage to Scarlett has fallen apart, he has been passed over for a promotion at work, his teenage kids think he is a loser, and he has been reduced to crashing with his high school nerd-turned-techno-billionaire best friend Ned.But Mike is given another chance when he is miraculously transformed back to the age of 17.
It’s just too easy to make fun of Zac Efron because he is the iconic teen dream poster child of this generation. Handsome and charming, a gifted singer and dancer. Granted you likely only think those things if you are a 14 year old girl, but it is undeniable that Efron will be around for a while now.
And the poster is pretty good. I like the nod to Tom Hank’s Big (which this shares its main premise with) with him stepping out of the oversized business outfit with his hip teenager digs on. Did you notice one foot is still in the dress pant leg? Its still got a dress shoe on it. Very subtle and clever.

ugh.
A nod to Big?… it’s Big re-badged! and I can bet right now that it won’t be anywhere near as good as the classic that is Big.
“Shimmy shimmy coco pop, shimmy shimmy Raaa!”
WOW I’ll make sure to NOT go see it!
Matthew Perry should of had a great movie career and I am upset he is only in a short part of this film. I will see it on DVD eventually.
does no one remember 13 going on 30????
Yes, and it was fun and a great twist on the story.
It was great to see her go forward instead of backward. She messes everything up and watches all her “success” bury here.
Good movie.
W/E this kind of movie never gets old.
I’m sure it will be entertaining. The trailer looks funny. Plus, Tom Lennon is in it so it can’t be all bad.
Haha i bet Matthew Perry wishes that he looked like Zac Efron when he was 17 i wish i did, i wish i looked like him now.
looks like its going to be good-bad-brilliant
But i bet Matthew was looking like zac when he was seventeen
I’ll watch it on DVD, because im a big fan of Matthew Perrys humor!
I think this will be one of those movies who are fun, but you wouldnt watch it a second time
and mathew perry doesn’t use the exact same brand of comedy in every movie he’s been in including friends as well?….He is chandler in every movie and you got nerve to talk about will….wow
Mark, you might want to get your details straight before you try barking this crap at me. Again you assume, and you failed.
I never said Will Farrell wasn’t funny. I just said I was tired of it. After 8-10 movies of him doing the same thing I just don’t get as big a laugh out of him. Perry hasn’t tired me out yet. And he has far fewer movies than Farrell to boot.
This looks like a pretty decent movie. I’m gonna watch no matter what. I’m a moviegoer. How can you expect. Anyway, liked the poster and trailer. Please give us new photos of the movie New Line.
I will see this move 100 time beacuse i love Zac efron
if Zac Efron plays his cards right, he will be one of the most sought after actors in Hollywood
I am the biggest fan of zac efron , I haven’t seen the movie yet but I am looking forward to it . love you zac
