Machete Trailer

In case you were wondering, Danny Trejo is DEFINITELY the wrong Mexican to fuck with.

   
Here is the brand-spanking-new trailer for Machete, which you'll be able to see live and in person if you happen to be going to see Predators this weekend
 
Let's see: Danny Trejo going batshit stab crazy all over a bunch of cracker ass crackers? Check. Jessica Alba looking smoking hot and kicking the shit out of a thuggish Mexican wrestler? Check. Michelle Rodriguez with an eye-patch and a huge effing gun? Check. Lapidas? Check. De Niro as a sniveling senator? Check. Cheech Marin as a double-shotty-toting priest? Check. Steven Seagal for, like, no reason? Check. Bad ass soundtrack? Check. Shit blowing up real good? Check, check, and check.

Only thing I didn't see in there was Lindsay Lohan, but given her current situation, maybe that's for the best...

That looked incredible.  Is it me or does Michelle Rodriguez actually get hotter as she gets older?

Looks awesome.  Never say Grindhouse but I will definitely see this movie.

Hahaha, fuck yes. 
 
Danny Trejo is this year's Mickey Rourke tough-guy career comeback. Calling it now.

I trust Rodrigues with some fun action. But that trailer editing damn-near made me throw up.

What an awesome trailer, looks crazy. It'll be batshit crazy, no doubt. But will it meet the "expectations"? Probably not, even though the fact that Steven Segal is in it makes my awesome-center explode.

This is the kind of movie that I mark in a calendar and X off the days leading up to it. Machete countdown, baby.

Hahaha, fuck yes. Trailer was pretty meh but the promise that the movie showed as being completely insane ala Shoot Em Up fills me with glee.

Well, guess I'm alone on this but that was fucking DISAPPOINTING.  Looks like instead of the faux-grainy look of the original trailer, he decided to go for... that classic lifetime original movie look?
 
Also, maybe it's just the pacing of this new trailer, but it really lacks the style and humor of the original.  
 
  I don't know how he went from tongue-in-cheeck low budget fun, to same-old dudes shootin' dudes.  Damn.
 
P.S.: MAN, Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez CAN NOT ACT!!! You'd think it'd be easier doing VO, but I guess not.  DAMN!

Nash Bridges is in this!? Awesome!
 
Also, Steven Segal for no reason is pretty incredible too.
