Awesome to see Summer Glau with sword in hands again.

They're fantasies about fantasy come true. They're really relying on the nerd ticket here, huh?

I'm in! I was busting up through the whole trailer. Hope it's a good yarn.

A LOT of those actors/actresses are personal favorites of mine. I'm gonna enjoy this one!

Definitely! Watched the trailer at lunch... going to see it as soon as it comes out!

Director Joe Lynch says release date is Spring 2012 during video interview with Summer Glau.

Like the way he describes a scene where Summer kick some ass.

OK that movie does actually look kinda funny. Probably just a rental though.

Renting Badassdom is not enough. I'm not a fan of gory, druggy, sorcery comedy, but Summer's movie will fail unless we all go out and support it, no matter how bad it stinks.

The trailer for Badassdom ( "I'm packing an ounce of killer 'shrooms!" "A+, Motherf**ker!" ) targets exactly the same audience as sword and sorcery movie Your Highness (2011). You know the audience: dope smoking little motherf**ker students who DWI.

Unfortunately for the likely future of Summer's movie, Your Highness did terrible at the boxoffice: www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=yourhighness.htm That is why we must do what we can to help Summer Glau. We must see her movie.

There are obvious differences between Summer's film and Your Highness ( one had a small production budget and the other a huge budget ) but what you should really notice are the similarities between the trailers. I think Summer Glau could have been cast in Natalie Portman's role. I believe Summer would have brought something extra that Portman could not to the golden bikini scene, which is in the Your Highness trailer.

Do you really think Summer is a better actress than Natalie? I went to see Your Highness just for lack of anything better to do. It was pretty funny IMO. It was a renter at best as well, but some friends were going so I gave in.

Frankly I've never been impressed by Summer unless she's playing a mentally unstable chick. Basically River and whatshername from Dollhouse. I guess there was like one episode of the sarah conner chronicles where she played a human and did a good job, but the rest of that series she wasn't doing anything special. She didn't shine at all in The Cape. Her episode of Angel was almost campy it was so bad. She's great as River but I'm not so sure she's a top of the line actress who just hasn't become popular enough yet. I'm not going to go out of my way to try to support her career.

Campy? I rather liked the vaguely Russian accent Summer used. She lowered her voice and sounded like an immigrant ballet instructor, reminding me of Natalie Portman. As for the Cape, the Cape's puking son was on camera for more minutes than Summer, whose time in front was about the same as the dwarf in the Carnival of Crime.

Admittedly, I might not be an unbiased judge of which actress, Summer or Portman, is better -- I did buy Little Damn Heroes #5 - River Tam Animated Maquette. So cute with those big eyes and the ax. http://store.qmxonline.com/Little-Damn-Heroes-5--River-Tam-Animated-Ma
