That looks bad, very bad, but in a good way.

I still remember the original.

That brown/gold pick up is on the list of TV cars I lusted after, along with the General Lee, KITT, A-Team van, etc biggrin

Indeed.

It doesn't look a patch on the original series and he's no Lee Majors, but as a silly film it looks perfect for a tired Friday evening.

I will be watching that, what not to like car crashes and Emily Blunt.

HOW??? HOW????!!! HOW…does that look bad??
That looks BRILLIANT!!!!!

He’s too pretty and too Gosling, but that’s just a quibble over the awesome grunchy cynicism that was Lee Majors.

Can’t wait for this smile

No need to go to the cinema, I feel like I've already seen the film. What happened to trailers that tittilated rather than showed everything?

David Leitch has directed some decent films so looking forward to this. Enjoyed the trailer!

"Blake Shelton performed a modernized cover of the television series theme song for the film."

This sounds promising although I hope they haven't changed any of the lyrics for "modern audiences".

I loved the Fall Guy as a child, looking forward to this.

Ooh, so does she play the Heather Thomas role (i.e. wandering around in a series of bikinis seemingly made from Dairylea triangles and fishing line) or the Markie Post role?

Either way, I'm in...

At 0:40 in the trailer it looks like they've reused the truck. Why they didn't use the song (even if updated) in the trailer I don't know.

Yeah I watched the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes trailer right before this one and literally said the same, both first trailers but couldn't have been more different in what they showed. I imagine KOTPOTA will have a few more before release and with Fall Guy the plots not the most important part.

I had no idea this used to be a TV show, never even heard of it. Film looks like good fun though, I do love Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling so don't see how this won't be enjoyable with them both and the strong 80s vibe running through the film.

The only thing I can remember from the original is that pick up.

This looks silly but I'll still watch it.

It looks stupid.

As in, a good old fashioned, brain disengaged, stupid fun film.
