Love Guru Movie Poster

Posted on Friday, February 15th, 2008 by Hunter Stephenson

The first poster for Mike Myers’s The Love Guru has arrived to tickle your funny bone like a jumbo-sized mustache. Except, if you’re like me, you already find yourself thinking about this June release, the schtick involved and the oncoming marketing blitz and your mind turns into an incurable rash. Myers stars as Pitka, an American left in India as a tyke, thus explaining his Rasputin-like appearance, a knee-slappin’ accent, and his horny nature. Jessica Alba, Justin Timberlake, Verne Troyer aka Mini Me, Ben Kingsley (Ghandi 2, much?) and hockey co-star! Can we just cast Mini Me in a remake of The Impossible Kid and get it over with? View the full-on kooky-horoscope of a poster and its tagline after the jump…

My brain must've shut off there b/c I forgot he was on that list. Kingsley has done some fine work in his day. However, he also did the Thunderbirds movie and that crappy remote viewing serial killer movie, so he's lost a bit of his street cred with me. :)

Jessica Alba, while nice to look at, is, as an actor - positively dreadful.

Justin Timberlake does have decent acting chops, and a fine sense of comedic timing.

And, Pete - I don't think will ferrell is doing anything funny anymore - his new movie is just a re-hash of 'talledega nights', and 'blades of glory' - with a different sport.

tina fey, however - is hilarious in 30 rock.

Pete

It looks about as good as "Don't mess with the Zohan"
With the Exception of Wil Ferrell & Tina Fey no one from SNL is doing anything funny anymore.

Justin Timberlake is the best actor out of the bunch 1979? I thought he was a fine actor in Black Snake Moan, and even moreso in Alpha Dogs, by by no means better than Ben Kingsley. I thought Sir Ben Kingsley's reputation surely was more esteemed than JT's.

Im fairly indifferent to Jessica Alba, and its hard to tell with Verne Troyer considering Ive never seen him act outside of playing Mini-Me.

Hopefully this delivers comedy on par with the Apatow crew who have begun their takeover of the genre :)

No thanks. Somehow I think I'll manage without seeing this film.

Sadly, Justin Timberlake is the best actor in this bunch. His work in Black Snake Moan (while not excellent, but solid) was leaps and bounds over anything Alba or Meyers have ever done with maybe the exception of Meyers in Studio 54.

But look on the bright side: he probably won't be able to find a way to work his faux-Scottish accent into this one.

Jessica Alba AND Justin Timberlake?!?!!? I CAN'T WAIT.

As if this doesn't already sound stupid enough..... it stars Justin freaking Timberlake. Good lord.

This character was originally in the script of the second Austin Powers. I had always wondered why he didn't appear in the movie.
