As you all should know, Peter Berg is directing this next film, so it is your duty as a member of this site to go watch his forthcoming film, Hancock.  The plot:

Will Smith portrays an alcoholic superhero despised by everyone. A publicist (Jason Bateman) helps rehabilitate him, and the superhero eventually begins an affair with the publicist's wife (Charlize Theron).

It is due to be released on July 2nd of this year.

It looks pretty good, but... why is it now our duty as forum members to watch Will Smith films?

I mean, I'm totally up for seeing Men in Black for the thousand-and-first time.  I'm just curious as to why, is all.

Because Peter Berg is directing Hancock.

Jason bateman?  odd last name.  well speaking of bateman.....Batman: the dark knight looks incredible. Keith ledger's performance looks incredible w/ a couple of od idiosyncracies that pay homage to old Jack.  srry off topic.

lol just saw the trailer.  Def a one of a kind movie premise i think.  i want to go see it.

Heath Ledger ;).

I agree though I cannot wait for Dark Knight. I just hope his death won't cause people to ruin the movie. (I've already heard talk of changing scenes :()
