trailer break: ‘Lottery Ticket’

Mon, Aug 09, 2010

Take a break from work: watch a trailer…

I’m disappointed to see so little overt misogyny and blatant idiocy in this trailer. The filmmakers could surely have squeezed in some more. I mean, only one reference to dog shit? They’re not even trying.

Lottery Ticket opens in the U.S. and Canada on August 20; no U.K. release date has been announced.

share and enjoy

I know that there are some people who applaud a film with no white people in it, on the basis that a balance needs to be reset from all those films with no black people in them. I am not one of these people; I think that any monoethnic film made now is essentially divisive.

(I suppose it’s faintly encouraging to learn that Hollywood doesn’t think the “urban market” is any more stupid than the white-folks market.)
