Wow, the trailer for the Farrelly brothers' "Three Stooges" looks awful

The trailer for the Farrelly Brothers' "The Three Stooges" movie has hit the web and it looks pretty terrible. Does the slapstick not transfer to our blue humor day and age? Is it Snooki? Or is this just stupid? You tell us.

 

Of course, Philadelph-fiends know that best Stooge Larry, a/k/a Larry Fine, a/k/a Louis Feinberg, was born and raised in Philly and was a proud Central High alum. Here, he's played by Sean Hayes, best known as Jack from "Will and Grace." Chris Diamantopoulos and Will Sasso play Moe and Curly respectively.

"The Three Stooges" is scheduled for the big screen in April of next year.

    Why does it not surprise me this review is written by a woman! I have yet to meet a woman that likes the 3 stooges, while most men enjoy this kind of slapstick.

    Your post is spot on "okiemon." I've fowarded the trailer to several of my friends and they all loved it. Of course they are all males, so I guess that we don't share the same sensitivty of Miss Eichel.
