Sean Hayes cast as Larry

That seems more sensible than the previous rumor.

vital Three Stooges movie news!!!
- Thread starter Temis the Vorta
- Start date
Trailer is up: at apple.
I have to admit, there were a few times I chuckled. But it's STILL weird. Especially how much they are just imitating other actors. But, then, I guess that's what this whole exercise was about.
Still wish it was Penn, Del Toro and Carrey. THAT would be an interesting exercise.

^ Sean Hayes reminds me of Carrey in this trailer - maybe it's the haircut, which looks more Dumb and Dumber than Moe. But had it been Carrey, Penn and Del Toro, it would have been, well, Carrey, Penn and Del Toro.
This did actually seem like the Three Stooges, but my favourite part of it was seeing Larry David. Well, that was my second favourite bit. My fave was the sexy nun in the revealing swimsuit (seriously).

^ 5 - 10 minute shorts, I can enjoy. A 90 minute movie? Hmmmm, not so much.
Oh dear, my thread has come back to haunt me. 
I gotta admit, that's a lot more...credible...than I would have thought possible.
And now I understand why Snookie exists. She's a female Stooge!

Wow, I didn't realize this was far enough along to have a trailer. Too bad I can't see it on this computer. I'll check it out later tonight.
This is one reason their movies were never as good. The smartest thing to do would be to make the movie an "anthology" of shorter bits.
They stumble into starring in a reality show? Yikes. Dunno, but that sounds off. Saving their childhood home, I can see as being an actual plot for one of their movies, in fact it might have happened, but the part about the reality show is the kind of thing where a modernism might not work since reality shows were never around when they were first around.
I think it's 3 30 minute stories or something like that.
Yeah, I've read the same thing.
^^ That's cool. Definitely a smart move on their part.
The trailer doesn't look bad. Those guys do good imitations of the Stooges, and they look... okay. It will all depend on how well written and directed it is.

There was an ok made for TV movie made years ago. A preShield Michael Chiklis played curly.

I fucking love this!

A lazy, stupid comedy with a recognizable and nostalgic name in the title is likely to do decent box office. But a biopic of the Three Stooges? Sounds like box office poison to me.
I'll see it for Larry David in a nun's habit alone.
It's the Three Stooges. What, you were expecting Battlestar Galactica? If anyone - reviewer or otherwise - goes into this film expecting a deep story or something dark and edgy, they deserve to be shipped off to Siberia.
I loved the trailer. I think this is going to be a lot of fun, and as a longtime fan of the Stooges it looks like they've nailed it. This will be a great tribute, I think. Already I'm liking it more than Dumb & Dumber (now if you want a thoroughly stupid movie...). And if they are doing a series of short stories rather than trying to sustain a single story for 90 minutes (something the original Stooges couldn't pull off) then that's a brilliant idea.
Here's hoping they've got Will Smith or someone doing a cover of The Curly Shuffle for the soundtrack!

While I admit I outgrew them years ago, and am usually the first to bitch about a remake, I found the trailer a very pleasant surprise. They've captured the look and goofiness of the old shorts perfectly.
Well yeah, its the Three Stooges. I'm guessing its one of those things you had to grow up with to get.

They've got Larry, Moe, and Curly down pat. I watched the trailer twice and I'm still laughing out loud. It's appropriately stupid, too.
