You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Dazed:
And furthermore why are we even discussing class? We're talking about a movie birthed from an intentionally classless fake trailer before an intentionally classless B-movie, about a mexican day-laborer-slash-assassin killing machine. Featuring Cheech Marin as a murderous priest.
Class? What? Who needs class?

Fair enough. Really, I just thought girls getting more screen time in the new trailer made it somehow less appealing/hilarious than the original one. Guess I phrased it kind of awkwardly?
Still super psyched for this movie though.

I mean, my boner is still so massive and huge for this film it's not funny, but.

I think a lot of people are worried that the movies won't live up to the quality of the trailers because there's not enough of a premise to work with.
The Hobo With a Shotgun trailer was fantastic but I struggle to see how it could be turned into a feature film and not drag.

I didn't take you for the kind of dude who would indulge in irrational, sensational fanboyism. There are possible issues to be had with this movie and it's fair to discuss them, whether or not the community that is producing them is, as a general rule, awesome.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Just taking the piss is all. Can't expect a man not to make dumb quotes on the internet, after all.
I think the biggest problem is that the Alba scenes seemed kind of actively lame, particularly when she was apparently trying to rally people. That line has just been beaten into the ground now and she generally has the charisma of a (cute) board. Ultimately though, DeNiro means that all is right with the world.
