It's Life, Jump Into Life, With Carrie Brownstein And James Mercer
Some Days Are Better Than Others trailer, you guys:
Whoa. Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney, grandpa) and James Mercer (The Shins, grandma) might be keeping it TOO real. It's like 500 Days of Siren Fest. Get it? Music. Or maybe it's more like Breaking the Shins? I don't know. But this looks OK. Standard Mumblecore. A little precious. Quiet. Pretty. And it's important for people to keep stretching themselves and not get locked into some pre-conceived notion of what they're capable of, you know? This is basically indie rock Space Jam.

Score = -21
Emphasis on "mumble." And not knowing what to do with your hands because you're new to acting.
Score = 7
eh, you're supposed to cross your arms. duh.
Score = 8
If it's anything like Space Jam, I'll be there on day one.
Score = 17
An hour and a half of morose white people being morose and white? I'll be there with bells on my skinny jeans.
Score = 11
Was that a Zoloft commercial? All that's missing is the sad rock.

Wait, it's not an onion? Whaaaaat?

This looks like a Gregory Crewdson photo come to life.

Your boyfriend loves the Shins.
Score = -7
You bet he does! Especially "Caring is Creepy," even though it was on the Garden State soundtrack and so was everywhere for a while.
Score = 1
OK, I'm an unabashed Carrie/SK fan, but even I couldn't help but cringe a little (a LITTLE) watching that trailer. What is happening!?
Score = 7
It makes me kinda sad that my beloved Carrie is a part of this. Even my extreme fandom/crush can see through the mediocrity...
Score = 3
All hands on this movie!
Score = 10
I kept waiting for that trailer to come to a crescendo, but it never happened. Also, i fell asleep.
Score = 11
I'm going to see it. I was pretty much sold with Carrie Browstein and it looks like it's set in the Pacific Northwest, maybe Astoria, which is perfect for the genre. And most of all, I really need to know what was donated that shouldn't have been donated.
Score = 6
It was filmed in Portland and the Oregon coast. I'll see it too because it makes me feel special to see places I see every day on a screen.
Score = 0
Yeah, being a filmmaker from the Portland area, it's always really nice to see Oregon movies get made. Being a huge Sleater-Kinney fan, I am on board for anything involving Carrie Brownstein.
But sorry, this just does not look that good. Prove me wrong, movie! Please.
Score = 2
Perhaps it was the printers in the basement?
Score = 1
Some Day's Mothers are Better than Other Day's Mothers.

Score = 7
More like, it's life, jump off a bridge. Amirite?
Score = 4
You should do a "Worst Movie of All Time" write-up the day it comes out. It will be like the opposite of when movies go straight-to-Criterion for the DVD release.
Score = -2
we're going to need a bigger WHO CARES.
Score = 3
Impressive! Do you guys all have Harvey Weinstein on your speed dial Power Lunch iPhone App so you can dial him from your Mom's basement? Make your own movie, then. I'm serious! Go for it. Like y'all never had your heartbroken. Also impressive! C'mon, people - sincerity takes a lot of heart. It's why Louis CK and Zach Galifanakis make you laugh.
Score = -2
"That title is going to look great in needlepoint" - Producer guy.

holy crap, I just realized that Carrie Brownstein looks a ton like the Always Sunny waitress.

It's a prequel to the Thunderant series! CLOSED!

This reminds me of Fast Times minus all the slow parts.

This was actually adapted from the "Everybody Hurts" video.

Does this movie have a song by Zach Braff that will change your life?

The director, Matt McCormick, made this short doc, "The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal", which is good:

Let's paint and exercise and mourn the loss of our loved ones everybody!
Score = 0
You mean this is basically indie rock After Last Season.
Score = 4
I love S-K and The Shins. But this is honestly one of the worst movie trailers I've ever seen. Like, if this is the dialogue they're putting in the trailer, how bad must the rest of it be?
Score = 3
I think Space Jam is a worthy comparison, judging by how unwatchable the trailer is.
Score = 0
