NB: the trailer isn’t embeddable right now, but if you click on the image, you can go watch it on the Apple website, which is a better website for trailers anyway, as they are all in the H’est of D’s.
After last night’s episode of Skins, I got in a bit of a Twitter war with a bunch of people who are total Skins-heads, I guess. Cool! Cool thing to fight about! Look, that show is terrible, but it is not my problem if you love it and want to watch it. Please be my guest! Until we are all dead and buried in the ground, which will be soon enough, we should all do what we can to carve out some tiny patch of happiness or if that is not possible–which it often is not–at least mild contentment, and maybe your patch includes MTV’s abominable new show, Skins. Hey, it’s your patch! But one of the dudes I was fighting with kept saying that Hollywood should be more willing to take risks (agreed!) and that Skins represented a risk (disagree!). I just do not see how buying the rights to an already successful television show and remaking it is a risk, much less a show about teenagers having sex and doing drugs marketed towards teenagers on a network for teenagers. Not that risky! Kind of the exact opposite of a risk actually.
But a movie about an inanimate car tire that comes to life and goes on a murder spree directed by a techno producer? Now that’s a risk! [Crocodile Dundee voice.]

Mr. Oizo is an amazing music producer, been looking forward to this for some time now, I just hope it is just as bizarre as his music.
YES YES YES. I second this with my whole body.
ME TOO! Mr. Oizo is my most favouritest producer of all time and I’m more excited about this film than I should be!
I remember that actress with the tire, I really liked her in Lars and the real girl.
Yeah, Megan Fox’s career really didn’t take off the way people expected it to. I’m glad she’s still keeping busy, though.
What a doll, and there’s the girl too
Something something thisismynightmare something still hit that.
Really? Put a creepy pair of pedo glasses on him in that pic and he’s sending kids to their eternal rest in CGI heaven.

Steve, your tale of personal tragedy brought a tear to my eye.
Steve, I don’t think you’re using condoms correctly. I’ll show you the correct way on a banana, once Kirk Cameron is done using it to prove God exists to Atheists.

Best Pictire, Golden Globes 2012.
I’m pretty sure Green Hornet’s already got that one on lock.
I can’t believe they’re turning that book into a movie!
It’s going to be a GoodYear for movies, for sure.

This movie has already reached cult status among francophones. But we are silly people, and stories of psychopathic car tires that fall in love never fail to move us.
Wikipedia says this movie is 85 minutes long. Fuck.
To baldly go where no tire has gone before.
Rimshot.
Rubber II: This time, he’s not skidding around.
Rubber III: Re-tired.
Highway Rubbery! – It’s the way he ROLLS.
*shows himself out*
Spare me.
I have the feeling that I will like this movie, but hate people who love this movie.
Rubber? I hardly know her!
(That’s what he said)
I’m sure this will be a straightforward story of a lonely tire trying to find traction in the world.
I thought Gabe was making one of those jokes at the end of a rant/spiel that are like, “wouldn’t it be awesome if there were [except we'd all probably say "was"] a movie about a [insert comically obvious yet beloved genre that lost it's last shot at redemption during the stupidity that was most film of the 90s through to the 2000s, you know like the Michael Bay movies that weren't so much movies as several communicative mediums thrown together turned all the way to 11 because of course he added 11 after being inspired by his favorite band spinal tap who he he thinks died fighting time traveling alien monsters who are want to destroy earth because that's why they exist and serve no other purpose except to speak in perfectly adequate English because even alien monsters that time traveled through a portal at stonehenge to enslave mankind know that America is the world, and that somehow when you time travel in America you end up in Ancient Europe because that's how history works, haven't any of you read a history book? Clearly one day Europe stops a few hundred years after discovering the America's and a new breed of people invent freedom and silicon breaststs and Chevy Suburbans- sorry Tahos because people hate to be reminded that there is absolutely no purpose for their car. Well anyway a group of down and out working class white guys are the only keys to mankind's survival, which proves itself worthy of such only because of the goodness amidst all the evil shit we do, and that goodness separates us from time traveling alien monster cyborg's whose culture evolved in the same way as us except they forgot all about their goodness, goodness that exists only in America and is why we do what we do like our flag, sunsets, fossil fuels, explosions that destroy everything but our flag and the fact that the white heros come from nothing, have no education, no discernable skills yet all prove more capable than the government agents about to hand over the world AND the white guys even have a couple blacks and hispanics and one asian girl thrown in to help them]
I forgot what this post was originally about. FUck michael bay that inflatable dildo of a filmmaker not actually a human but a personification in the flesh of all of our no longer relevant genes saying fuck the species’ entire survival I wanna fuck some tittayys
