Rama’s SCREEN

Three high school freshmen hire a bodyguard named Drillbit Taylor (Owen Wilson) to protect them against bullies. Seth Rogen has a part in writing the script to the story, which is based on John Hughes’ idea (The guy behind ‘Sixteen Candles‘, and ‘The Breakfast Club‘).
Having been a kid that was mocked and bullied years ago, I’m always up for movies that… show the geeks and nerds become champions at the end of the day.
‘Revenge of the Nerds‘ is one of the coolest movies ever.
Besides, someone said to me once, “Always trust the geeks.” That’s because they’re the ones that often come up with the solutions.

If you see the trailer, you’ll agree with me that Owen Wilson is good at playing this type of character, like he was in Shanghai Noon and Wedding Crashers. The trailer seems kinda stupid and anyone that would see this trailer/preview of Drillbit Taylor probably wouldn’t wanna watch the movie basing it on what they saw on the trailer alone. But Seth Rogen made Superbad and I’ve seen ‘Superbad‘ and I thought it was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen in my life. So I think Drillbit Taylor just might have the same luck.
Drillbit Taylor is scheduled for release March 21, 2008.
Usually films that are in the beginning of spring season are usually not that impressive.
But we’ll be the judge of that.
