The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard Red Band Trailer

thegoodsredband

A new red band trailer for the upcoming comedy The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard has arrived online this week courtesy of Funny or Die. It seems only appropriate since the movie is produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, who also run Funny or Die. Although there doesn’t seem to be a ton of buzz surrounding this movie as of yet, the trailers have been consistently funny, and the cast is solid.

This new trailer shows off a lot more of Ed Helms, no doubt thanks to his role in The Hangover (a movie that seems to be influencing everything around it). There’s almost an Anchorman feel to the whole thing with the competing teams of car salesmen, not to mention the presence of David Koechner. The only unproven quantity here is director Neal Brennan, who worked on Chappelle’s Show for years, but who has only directed the made-for-TV comedy Totally Awesome. The other thing is that it seems to be trying a bit hard too hard to be edgy, but that could be a result of the fact that this is a red band trailer. What do you think? The Goods hits theatres on August 14th; the trailer is embedded after the jump.

  1. I liked this better when it was Zemeckis’s Used Cars with Kurt Russell.

  2. wow, Reed really must have done a number on that podcast if its still not up before MovieClub.

    I would still sit through a 2 hour plus unedited mp3 :P

  3. Jay took over editing of it again but he’s busy for the next couple of days. Trust me, you don’t want it unedited.

  4. I wish my hair grew back like Jeremy Piven’s…

  5. A movie about asshole car salesmen….what’s not to like? Wasn’t Robin Williams in one from like the 70’s?

  6. Looks entertaining. Also looks like the less remarkable portions of Anchorman. I’ll still probably see it, though.
