Dec 28 2009This Is Why I Only Accept Transplants from Baboons: 'Repo Men' Trailer
Your petition for a movie that combines the organ repossession premise of Repo! The Genetic Opera with the future-enforcer-on-the-other-side-of-the-law action of Minority Report worked! The Repo Men trailer:
This hypothetical future does not concern me, so long as I have access to drifters and bathtubs full of ice.
(Thanks, Nathan Burgun.)

Forest needs more badass roles.

Thank goodness.. the premise for The Genetic Opera was awesome. A dude repossessing organs! Then they sang really shitty songs, and the movie ended up being about some whiny chick. It was so disappointing. Imagine... a movie where Paris Hilton isn't the worst thing about it.

Well, no point in seeing this in a theatre now, that trailer showed the entire movie in 2 minutes. Saves me $14.

Yeah, movies should only be two minutes long - so I wouldn't have to watch all those boring transitions and protracted lines of dialogue. I wouldn't mind paying $15 for that (because movies cost $15 where I come from).

It's like Repo without all the shitty emo stuff.

@10: lol
This looks INCREEEEDIBLY stupid. I wonder what Monty Python skit from The Meaning of Life they're going to turn into a dystopian thriller next? "In a world... where really fat people eat so much they explode... what will happen... when one man... orders dessert?"
Or even better: "In a world ruled by dogma... one man dares to question... is every sperm sacred?"

Looks good...
Going to fail magnificently in the States. Hard R movies don't perform too well here often. That's why PG-13 was slapped on the last 'Die Hard' flick.

@12 yeah agreed, I want glowing cars flying off into space driven by acid casualties.

Factoid:
This movie was on the shelf for about two years under the title "Repossession Mambo". It was pulled out of the mothballs by Universal in order to put the kibosh on director Alex Cox's quasi sequel to his incredible 1984 'Repo Man' called 'Repo Chick'.
