MacGruber disarms warheads with F-bombs
We're past the point of debating whether they should have made a movie out of Saturday Night Live's MacGruber. It's a done deal, as you can see in the obscenity-speckled trailer posted below. Viewers seem pretty divided, with some saying it's going to be all-caps AWESOME and others noting that it's an idiotic spinoff from an idiotic sketch/Pepsi Super Bowl commercial. If these are the best clips they could pull, I'd say it doesn't bode well for this movie breaking SNL's consistent track record of flops. I'm guessing the flick will succeed only in sparking an epidemic of delinquents crapping in toilet tanks. Via Mashable.
