God! Please Make Steve Martin Funny Again! New Trailer For PINK PANTHER 2...
Hey folks, Harry here... I never thought that the PINK PANTHER movies were an impossible to recreate series of comedies. I love Peter Sellers' character, but really, did you ever think that it was the sort of character that was absolutely im-fucking-possible for Steve Martin to pull off without looking like he's completely devoid of talent?
I think the key was, Peter Sellers played the Inspector in an understated manner. He seemed to disappear in the role. He never seemed overwrought trying to pull it off. I mean, I love those films - the humor seems absolutely natural, yet here it just comes across as desperate, pathetic and intolerable. But I'm posting this link to see if you folks agree that this is shit - or if there's actually a fucking idiot that likes this crap. Here ya go...
