I'm looking forward to it.
At the very least, we'll get some nice Anne Hathaway scenery.

I think GET SMART was one of Mel Brook's best creations, though very much of it's time.
Curious to see what the film is like.

I'm fairly certain that Steve Carrell cannot be unfunny. Unfortunately this film looks like something that will be completely unfunny and dull every second the camera is off him.

The Jessica Alba/Angelina Jolie curse. The two most beautiful women in Hollywood almost exclusively make movies that no one wants to see.

It makes no sense at all to satirize someone the majority of the audience has never heard of.

I want to support a fellow canuck as much anyone, but the trailers for this one look spectacularly unfunny.

On the other hand, what demographic is it, precisely, that has been crying out for a Get Smart movie? There has been a lot of talk about these two comedies going up against each other on the same weekend, but the bottom line is that everybody loses.

I like Carrell and Hathaway, but you definitely have a point.

I'm hoping Get Smart does okay, if only for Carell's sake. Following Evan Almighty, I don't know how much damage his film career can sustain.

Carell has become pretty beloved for playing Michael Scott on The Office, however.

Austin Powers was only OK the first time. I don't need to see it with Indian references instead of British. Not a chance.
Get Smart doesn't look great, but I like Carell and the theatrical trailer had its moments. The question is whether said moments are the only ones the movie has.  Maybe on TV.
