Are you disgusted by the movie "Act of Valor"?

BRTD gets disgusted easier than a blue haired WASP from Iowa lost in the Castro District.

Yeah, I don't know why the marketers think I'm in the wheel house for Project X....I can't seem to escape commercials for the amazingly stupid looking movie.  It looks like somebody took the worst parts of the Hangover (of which they were many) and Superbad, had a first year film student write a script and then filmed it with a handheld at the youngest producer involved in the films house.  There aren't even any "jokes" in the trailers...isn't it supposed to be funny?  At least Jack and Jill gave us a (weak) joke or two when they overloaded us with advertisement.

They must have spent $30 million in advertising....<checks>....meh..can't find anything.  $12 mil to make it....I'd be shocked if they didn't double that in marketing.


(oddly enough, I did see that Act of Valor was purchased from a low end studio for $13 mil and then they (the buyers) went and spent $20-30 mil in marketing for it and I bet I've seen 10 commercials for Project X for every 1 I've seen for Act of Valor.)
