New ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ trailer drops: too much Olivia Wilde?

ca3

Several months ago, I covered the first trailer for the Daniel Craig-Harrison Ford-Olivia Wilde movie, Cowboys & Aliens. I asked whether the film looked like a dongfest or a cheesefest, and I summarized the film as:

So… is the story that Daniel Craig was an outlaw who got abducted by aliens and they gave him some magical bracelet that deflects the alien powers while also wiping his mind of everything, including whores? And then he goes right back into town and Harrison Ford is all “GIVE HIM TO ME!!!” and then the aliens are like “Wazzup?!?” and Daniel is all “Remember that bracelet you GAVE me? Eat it, bitches!!!”

Okay, sometimes I crack myself up. That was a seriously funny description! Anyhoodle, there’s a new trailer, and I’m getting a better sense of what the film is about. This trailer is heavy on the Olivia Wilde, and the message seems to be “If you see this film, we will show you Olivia’s tittays in between the special effects.” Here’s the new trailer:

Too much Olivia Wilde. She’s just not playing at the same level as Danny Craig and Harrison. And mother of GOD, IS THAT SAM ROCKWELL?!? Why isn’t Sam’s involvement being screamed from the rooftops? I’ll go see this movie for Sam.

But yeah, my new summary is: Daniel Craig was an outlaw [with a family and a convenient backstory about how they were probably abducted by the aliens] who got abducted by aliens and the aliens gave him some magical bracelet that deflects the alien powers while also wiping his mind of everything, including whores [like Olivia Wilde’s old-timey, crusty whore character]. And then Daniel goes right back into town and Harrison Ford is all “GIVE HIM TO ME!!!” and then the aliens are like “Wazzup?!?” and Daniel is all “Remember that bracelet you GAVE me? Eat it, bitches!!!” [And then Olivia Wilde gets naked and saunters around a campfire. The end.]

    Meh. Never liked the Cockburn. If I watch it, I’ll watch it for the Ford.

    Can’t wait!

  3. rkintn says:

    Sweet mother..Daniel Craig is smokin’ in his cowboy getup! I LOVE a man in chaps LOL That next to the last pic is delish;)

  4. merski says:

    But… a western… with aliens…? I… don’t… get it. o_0

  5. Kaboom says:

    Daniel has been working up some nice gunslinger moves.

  6. Marjalane says:

    Olivia Wilde should think about adding a cowboy hat to all her ensembles; It hides her giant forehead.

  7. devilgirl says:

    For all those that don’t get it, would you rather see another remake of an old movie vomited up or something new and possibly interesting? I vote for seeing something new and possibly interesting.

  8. Samantha says:

    Its got a steampunk feel to it and though I’m not a huge fan of the genre, I’m drawn in. Will probably see it.

  9. BW says:

    I know he’s wearing pants, but those photos make him look like he’s wearing assless chaps.

  10. silken_floss says:

    When I first saw this trailer, I thought it was a parody colliding both genres. I don’t get it either o_O

  11. I have a girl crush on Olivia Wilde!! Mr. Craig is always welcome but ALIENS and COWBOYS?? SERIOUSLY? I don’t want to even start on how wrong is that

  12. Adrian says:

    This trailer makes me crack up. We saw it in the theater and literally everyone around me was like “Wasn’t this…just a Western?” Collective confusion and laughter all around. I’ll be interested to see if it does well.

  13. DeeBee says:

    Yes, way too much Olivia, and way too little Sam! Otherwise, I’m excited for this.

  14. Eve says:

    My, my…Daniel Craig’s ass is one cute little thing.

    Whenever I see anything with Harrison Ford now, I remember the joke about him on Family Guy (that he’s always looking for his family in movies). And boy, they do have a point:

  15. Eve says:

    I cosign the “more Rockwell, less Wilde” in trailers campaign. I watched “Moon” recently and he’s f*cking good in it. Sam Rockwell is a great, but sadly underrated actor.

  16. Roxy75 says:

    Yes!!! I saw it last night and was like, I recognize that ugly brunette…Oh yea, it’s Olivia W. They did show her quite a bit.

  17. Lucy says:

    Rockwell, Craig? Yeah – I’m all over that.

  18. xxodettexx says:

    craig, ford and rockwell??? i am there… even in spite of wilde being in this movie

  19. truetalk says:

    @#3, seconded!

  20. mln76 says:

    Olivia is distractingly not good in the trailer but Daniel Craig’s hottness can overcome anything.

  21. really says:

    the poster looks like Daniel Craig is about to get it IN……. he is sooooooooooo gay.

  22. Cali says:

    Olivia who? I didn’t notice her. I was looking at the hot piece that is Daniel Craig!!! He is sooooo damn hot!!!!!!!

  23. anti says:

    when wilde says “that’s what they did to my people”… i hope it’s not some reference to a native american thing, seriously.

  24. Erin says:

    Not digging Olivia Wilde’s cheese-acting, but I LOVE this idea! Very creative.

  25. anne_00 says:

    i cant tell who’s the worse actress, olivia in this film or denise richards in that james bond film.

  26. melissa says:

    Is she trying to do some sort of an accent, because she failed.

  27. KattyKat says:

    I couldn’t even make it to her part in the trailer and I normally love Daniel Craig and Jon Favreau.

    I don’t have a problem with Olivia overall. I think she’s gorgeous when you hide the forehead (may be my own issues, I have a similar forehead).

  28. Mia says:

    More Craig & Rockwell please(what a pleasant surprise he was at the end of the trailer!)! Less Wilde. I know the guys go gaga for her (???), but I don’t. She distracts from the film with her bad acting and huge forehead.

  29. rightgrrl says:

    ….just can’t get past THOSE EARS!!

  30. Amanda G says:

    It definitely seems to be an original idea for once, but it’s not my thing.

  31. Kiki says:

    hmmm. daniel craig in tight pants…..good enough for me!!

  32. Chris says:

    Hmm Cowboys and Aliens? And these people are fully grown adults, you say?

  33. Luls says:

    Lol, after seein the trailer, it looks like 1 of those movies that’s gona be unintentionally funny 😛
    I might go see it just for kicks!

  34. Mary Jane says:

    I actually thought it looked pretty good…
    I will ALWAYS love Harrison e’en though he is now with that anorexic chick.
    AND SAM ROCKWELL!!! Yummmm…
    At LEAST it’s not another Hollywood remake (although I am getting bored with all the comic adaptations — this is based on a graphic novel). It could have been Ninjas vs. Aliens…

  35. Mouse says:

    Come on, it’s a Spielberg movie called Cowboys and Aliens. Of course it’s going to be cheesy!

    I want to see it for the cheesy goodness. It’s Daniel Craig! As a cowboy! Look at that butt in those chaps!! AND Sam Rockwell, I love him! Oh I can’t wait. ^-^

    Doesn’t seem like there’s much chemistry between Craig and Wilde.

  36. Shadowd says:

    I am going simply because the last cowboys and space gene was Firefly and Serinity, and I loved them.

  37. I Choose Me says:

    Daniel Craig! SAM ROCKWELL!! I need no other reason to see this.
