Title: The Love Guru (Mike Myers' new movie)
Post by: UPRC on March 02, 2008, 05:42:02 pm: So I just went to Yahoo and stumbled across the trailer for Mike Myer's new movie and, I guess, the successor to his Austin Powers character.

For those who don't know, Myers stars as a man who was abandoned in India when he was only a baby, and he was raised by gurus who named him Pitka. He returns to America to preach self-help advice when he is asked to fix a relationship between a Toronto Maple Leafs player who is having marital problems with his wife (she's seeing a player from the Los Angeles Kings).

There is an interesting cast.. Myers as Pitka, for starters. Jessica Alba is in there as some sort of manager, Justin Timberlake (ugh) is the LA Kings player, and the Maple Leafs coach is.. Verne Troyer?!

I'm not sure what to think of this movie. After I watched the trailer I was kind of unsure what to think. The movie looks like it has potential, but the trailer didn't really suck me in. I laughed a little when Verne Troyer got hit in the head with a puck and then, at the end of the trailer, dropped by Mike Myers but.. It didn't really grab me aside from those small little scenes.

I think I could like this. Mike Myers is always funny.
