Have you guys seen the new trailer for Machete that came out today?

Holy fuck, this looks awesome.

Well I'm sure this will help the national dialogue on immigration.....

:doh:

I approve of the Tarentino-esque levels of gore and violence though.

It would be worth the laughs to watch it, except the wacky extremist holleywood element had to go and make a mockery of the illigal immigration issue for the plot...swell.

The plot for this has been around for two years, for those of you who don't know. They're just poking fun at the Arizona thing because of the timeliness.

Well the illegal immigration problem was at its peak about 2 years ago before the economy tanked.

I'll say good violence, weak or misguided premise.
Was Cheech involved with production at all? He did that flick "Born in East LA" a long time ago that centered around legal / illegal immigration.

True but I doubt Eli Roth meant anything by making a movie like this. It just screams A+ Mexsploitation, and I think that's what they were going for - god-awful, good-times 1970's pulp.

The original trailer for Machete was played before Grindhouse, a film that poked fun at ridiculous, over the top, violent B-movies. This is more of the same, but driven by a different plot device taken to a comical extreme.

That being said, this looks great, but I'd still like a feature film of Hobo With a Shotgun more.

Who could have seen even a single film coming from the fake Grindhouse trailers, much less two. Damn awesome.
