Feb 21 2007Run, Fat Boy, Run Trailer
Written by Michael Ian Black and starring Simon Pegg, Run, Fat Boy, Run has potential for being a decent comedy despite the direction of David Schwimmer. If you're like me, after watching the trailer, you're slightly confused that Simon Pegg isn't particularly fat. Well noted, keen observer. They've made a terrible folly by not, as the title implies, goading an actual fat person to run. I've seen it in person, and it's always a pretty solid laugh.

This doesn't look funny at all.
At least Hank Azaria is in it.

Didn't they do that egg-drinking gag in Fresh Prince already?

MIB + Simon Pegg together? They could call it "Sprints in Baggy Pants" and I'll still watch it.

Fat is based on a different scale for people living outside the US.

Dylan Moran too? This will be amazing. (and Schwimmer's gotten a bad rap over the years because of Friends, he's actually a pretty funny guy and decent actor)
