Oh, my. This looks terrible. I love Jeff Bridges, but I hated this same accent in True Grit — and I still hate it here. It's hard to even understand him sometimes. Not to mention it looks like a rip-off of MIB, Ghostbusters and Beetlejuice. Blah. 🙁

Wow, so much hate on here, especially for Ryan, I don't understand the negativity and hate. I happen to think Ryan Reynolds is a very talented actor and I am very much looking forward to watching R.I.P.D.

Dear Lord, I thought being late to the party would mean one of us – Mr. Taylor included – would've given props to James Hong's 1 millionth movie role. And what might be Sports Illustrated model Marissa Miller's first (speaking, really?) role. Com'on, stay on the good and fun stuff. All the premable above and the rambling addendums below had no joy…

Can someone explain why Reynolds thinks that he will become a star by playing emotionally crippled whiners in CGI spectacles? No one wants to see his emotional sensitivity in tentpoles. Some argue that people don't want to see him period but I do think he has charm and can do well in the right blockbuster vehicle, but he needs to start playing sharper characters that trade on his wit and comic timing – not duds that require the plot to be explained to him every five seconds, "what I am a Green Lantern/dead guy that solves crimes? What? I didn't know the CIA used enhanced interrogation techniques." Reynolds, just play a guy that saves the day, bangs the girl and delivers cool one-liners for once. Speaking of people not finding the right vehicle, I actually thought Schwentke could have delivered a giant hit on the basis of his previous American films. Their scripts are fairly rote, but he always has a clear sense of style and an assured feel for simple, but strange compositions. However, this trailer just feels tonally all over the place, and there is a clear difference between STYLE and PERSONALITY: Schwentke has style, but I am not sure how much personality he really has as a filmmaker. And the film just doesn't look like a $200 million (what the hell is with Reynolds and sci fi films that were way more expensive than they look), and I have a difficult time believing this could recoup its costs, let alone deliver a sequel. And Bacon is in the trailer – he's with Reynolds at the bust, so I assume he will be a cop GONE ROGUE.

I would rather juggle vials of Ebola than sit through that trailer again.

Omg is the playlist lost it completely? This looks absolutely horrible. Men in Black? More like Wild Wild West.

Um this looks awful. Also how is Ryan Reynolds still a thing? I'd rather see his wife in a film… which is not to say either of them are talented or exciting.

Also in more exciting news: new Gatsby clips! Pretty good indication of Carey Mulligan's "Daisy" accent… posted over at the Tiffany's youtube page.

Does anyone besides little girls consider him watchable??
