A new, totally reworked trailer for Fanboys, the movie about a group of Star Wars fans storming the Skywalker Ranch, is now playing before screenings of Zach And Miri. Fanboys has been sitting on the shelf since long ago (the IMDB official tagline is still listed as “Coming to our galaxy in 2007.”), but in that time, a number of the movie’s stars have become more famous, and the world has become more receptive to geek comedies. Whoever re-did the trailer is a genius, because what looked like a total B comedy (like College) now has the sheen of a potential Superbadish something:
Everyone in my theater cheered at this trailer, though they were admittedly a self-selecting sample group. At the very least, that’s one of the best (and almost self-mocking, considering the reason the movie is finally coming out) credit sequences ever.

I thought Kristen Bell was supposed to be in this? Why she no in da trailer?
She’s the chick with dark hair at the end in the garbage shaft. It is odd that her name isn’t mentioned, which means maybe her people asked for it not to be mentioned. Because she’s so famous now.
Oh man oh man oh man!
those kids are now in their mid 40s now. and can someone explain kevin smith to me?
That credit sequence is incredible. The warehouse guy from The Office, that guy from Tropic Thunder AND that guy from Die Hard 4? I’m so there
That was a great trailer!
And, yes, the credits were hilarious!
maybe it’s because i’ve never been into star wars, but i think this looks terrible. the credit sequence in the trailer is funny, but that’s as far as it goes for me.
