I’ve been showing Snow White and the Huntsman and Prometheus a lot of love lately. Both films come out in the beginning of June, so they’re two of the first “summer blockbusters” that I’m getting all itchy and antsy for. But there’s another summer film that I can’t wait to see – Steven Soderbergh’s Magic Mike. Magic Mike comes out at the end of June, and dear God, I hope every theater in town carries it. It’s going to be epic!!!! Matt Bomer, Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and Joe Manganiello, all playing male strippers, all based on Channing Tatum’s real past as a male stripper (in Tampa!). Anyway, I’ve been waiting for the trailer to come out. The full trailer will be released tomorrow, but there’s a teaser, and I’ll take it.
See… I don’t really have a problem with Channing Tatum in general (I think he’s funnier and smarter than his reputation), but I think this is the kind of role where he really shines. He gets to be a funny meathead, he gets to dance, he gets to show off his amazing body. What’s not to love? And I seriously can’t wait to see Matt Bomer in tear-away pants. You know he’ll be AMAZING.

Ol’ Charming Potato (as they call him on Gawker I think, or is it Pajiba?) was very likable in the 21 Jumpstreet remake (which was a very entertaining movie). We’ll see about this one.
Good lawd. This calls for a girls night out.
Oh I totally agree, this is going to be one HOT movie!
this seems awkward… i don’t know, i find strippers sad and awkward (although the males ones don’t seem to be as sad as the female ones).
Hot as hell Adam Rodriguez is in this too? I might have to check this out.
Yeah! Why wasn’t he mentioned in this piece?!! He almost makes up for McOldie (unfortunately I am the same age as him, but I am also not in a stripper movie, thank gawd)
Matthew McConaughy as a stripper? No. Just…no.
he actually plays the owner/manager
Golden globe nod. At least from me. Kinda mehhh about mcconaughey being in it, I think it’s the t-rex arms.
This just made my day! i almost choked on my gum after lauhing so hard…good one “drawbackwards”.
I’ll take one of each!
I just watched ‘The vow’ and Channing Tatum is so freakin hot!!
Oh boy. I need a personal moment. I’m burning up over here! When can I buy tickets?
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks McConaughey as a stripper is…..just ewwww. Is it to late to edit him out of this flick?!?!? He totally kills my ladyboner.
Always had fun in those events….
it is almost a ding fest
This looks awesome. I wasn’t sure how I felt about it until right now. And that feeling I will keep to myself. Where’s Eve to deliver another awesome gif?
I meant DONG LOL
Panties are in hurricane mode y’all…..
ROTFL! 😀
One word: SHOWGIRLS 2012.
Bout time a movie came out that made men squirm in their seats. Mmm men with hot, fit bodies..
Yeah, it’s been quite awhile since The Full Monty was released. 😉
I was not a fan of the Charming Potato… and then I saw 21 Jump Street. Whilst the movie itself was less than entertaining, I hate to admit it, but the Potato may be winning me over!
YUM! Man candy!!!!!
Ever since he hosted SNL, I’ve been a fan. He’s undeniably charming and so hot.
I. Can. Not. Wait!
I am getting impatient. The time to objectify men is near 🙂
uhhhh I CAN’T WAIT. I dragged my husband to see The Vow. I just saw Matt Bomer for the second time (first in In Time) on Glee last night and he’s hot too. This one will only involve girlfriends. *swoon*
Please post the full trailer when it comes out. 🙂
F*CK YEA! cannot wait to see this movie – love me some big lugs.
I’m going to go against the trend here and say that I am PSYCHED for McConaughey as a stripper. Maybe I’m old and remembering his glory days. That’s the problem, Matty, you kept getting older, and your audience stayed the same age…
Oh, the irony.
PS – I love Bomer but i’m sorry he just looks a little silly in the pics. Like he’s taking His Craft way too seriously.
Oh yea… I am loving McConaughey.
I refuse to buy into the hate for him. But granted, I do wish he would wear some deodorant. 🙂
But he looks incredible in those photo’s.
And it is about time girls get a mindless fun movie with half naked men!
I’ve loved me some Channing Tatum since Step Up.
This…this right here…is a smorgasbord of hot man meat!
I have seen this movie (1st advanced screening) and it is good. Fun, silly, with some heart. And LOTS AND LOTS of hot guys! Although Alex Pettyfer isn’t that great, everyone else does well!
My fave movies this year so far are Five Year Engagement (go see it! you will LAUGH yourself silly), Avengers (Yes I saw it and I will pay to see it again!) and Hunger Games.
I am so seeing this movie – WITHOUT my boyfriend.
Ok, confession… I didnt get the Channing Tatum thing, but since 21 Jump Street….and now this trailer…. I totally do.
OMG can I buy a ticket (just one) to this as soon as possible? This is too hot to imagine. I love CT and Matthew McConaughey is perfect for this role! Like an older stripper/role model. I love it!
I haven’t even seen MAGIC MIKE and I just want to Thank Maathew McCo. and co.
