Japanese Trailer For THE DARWIN AWARDS

I have no idea, absolutely none, how they’re going to make this work on a story level but for sheer goofy fun The Darwin Awards should be a blast.  For the unfamiliar The Darwin Awards are given out on a regular basis to those who remove their faulty genes through the gene pool - either by sterilizing themselves or outright killing themselves - through their own stupidity.  It’s just the award granters way of saying thanks for improving the race by not passing your extreme stupidity on.  Remember when those “Don’t rock the pop machine to get a free drink because it might fall over and kill you” stickers first started appearing on vending machines everywhere?  Yeah, the guy who died by pop machine won one of the very first Darwin’s.  Really.  And now they’re making a movie that looks, from the trailer, to essentially be a best-of list from the awards somehow forced into story form.  It’s even got the rocket car - which the Darwin folk later debunked - in there.

Beware, though ... there is some salty language.

    Hmmm.. This came out domestically (US)on DVD way back in July.  Not to down play the Japanese trailer or anything.

    Yeah, I think it went straight to DVD here and I don’t remember ever seeing trailers or anything on it.  I doubt it’s any good but the trailer makes me laugh so I posted it ...
