I’m guessing that the sequel will be more hot men on a slab and less conversation? Call it a hunch. I refuse to be that cliche of the older woman lusting after hot beefcake. So I’m not going to be. Really, I’m not. I’m not even going to watch this trailer. Or look at Channing Tatum ever.
I just…can’t be mad at this trailer.
Channing Tatum is one of the hottest guys around. THOSE ABS!
I work out 4 days a week yet I look nothing like this. :/ lol I think I might be wasting my time.
The first film was an interesting deconstruction of American capitalism that continued Soderbergh’s run of films primarily concerned with transactions (The Girlfriend Experience, The Informant!, etc.). Mike is an aspiring entrepreneur attempting to achieve the American Dream by………..
……aw fuck it, who am I kidding. DEM ABS!
Pardon my typing errors. Should have checked before posting. 🙂
They first one tried to be a serious story about fame, drugs, pressure, manipulation, money and relationships. This second one looks like it just wants to be a “fun party movie”, thereby reducing what the first one was trying to say. The funny thing is, most girls I know were let down by the “not-stripping-ALL-the-time” factor of the first one, while most guys I know were actually enjoying themselves a lot more than they thought they would because of the story.
The story of the first one WAS aimed at guys, but this is yet another example of how the second film looks like it’s going to ruin what the first one was all about.
When “Saw” came out, a lot of people were calling it “the new Seven”: A sadistic thriller. By the time all the sequels came along, it turned out to be just a torture porn horror series and not to be taken as serious as the first one looked like it was supposed to be. “Magic Mike XXL” looks like it’s going to take the same route. It looks like it’s making this “franchise” into just a lame, not-to-be-taken-very-serious stripper-saga for the “Step It Up” crowd, in spite of the first one trying to go deeper. Oh well, that’s Hollywood.
I skipped one day at the gym and the teaser just came out. That’s evil, comeon!
Clearly I have been wasting my time at the gym, and all along I should have been doing more welding.
This trailer is pure sin!
Where’s Ryan? LOL XD
at some point, I thought it was “Magic Mike Leigh” LOL that would be a masterpiece
and that “You’re welcome” part in the end just killed me!
Just got out of the shower and saw this; excuse me gotta go back and have a cold one this time!
I only saw the first one for McConaughey and I don’t even remember what happened. I think Tatum looks just like Jimmy Kimmel, but I like Kimmel better. lol Have fun you ignorant sluts. 😛
I wish McConaghey was back, too
That’s a funny trailer with a nod to Flashdance. Channing has a sense of humour and not taking himself seriously.
Someone pass me a Kleenex!!!
“Someone pass me a Kleenex!!!”
Riiight???
Thank you Sasha for posting this. It does provide a healthy light-hearted balance to the endless Oscar debate. And EYE CANDY!!!!!!
