I personally think it looks T-E-R-R-I-B-L-E.

In the commercials I've seen, it's like the actors are trying to make it look all serious, but it just looks so corny to me. Hey, the robot-boxing part seems cool, but the surrounding story looks like it's gonna be awful.

Sorry BeastProwl, I didn't mean to come in here and shit on your thread, lol, I just don't think it looks any good.

Yeah, well, to each his own, I mean, I liked District 9, so maybe this will be a B-Movie that's more a Me-Movie? Or who knows, it Could be good! You never know until you see it. unless its Dragon Ball Evolution or The Last Airbender. you don't need to see those to know they suck.
hence the happy dance!

The creators of Robot Chicken are probably laughing their asses off right now. They predicted this. Remember the skit where they had E! showing trailers for new movies based off board games? Hungry, Hungry Hippos... Shoots and Ladders... Slip N Slide...

Because there are obvious similarities. When I first saw the trailer, I honestly thought it was a live-action Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots movie.

I saw a trailer for it when I saw either DOTM or Captain America (can't remember which), and I thought it was a Rock'Em Sock'Em Robots movie too. It looks cheesy, but fun, kind of like the live action Speed Racer movie.

Weapon: Black Magic
Just saw it. and LOVED it! I went in just hoping for a good time and I definitely had that. Surprisingly, the out-of-ring bits were really well put together. I also like how they actually downplayed the advancement of the robots as just an everyday thing. Some directors would have tried to play that up but at this point the robots are every day things. It helps sell the setting.
