Nice Try, 'I Love You, Man' Trailer

Be careful watching this trailer: it's deceptive. You see Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, Rashida Jones, Thomas Lennon, and J.K. Simmons reprising his Juno role of "Dad", and you naturally start to believe this should at least be reasonably funny. But once you look back and think about it again, it's just another broad, high concept comedy that's only tolerable because it's somehow not starring Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson as the budding friendship. I feel like I'm a dog and this movie is a pill wrapped in cheese the producers are trying to coax down my throat. Luckily I caught that hint of medicine just before I was going to swallow, so they'll be finding this buried in a couch cushion in a few months.
