Default trailers looked good

A friend of mine had a copy of American Gangstrer 4 days after it opened so I am sure he will have this one too within 5 days . Just looks like a Hollywood rehash thopugh of a well documented story that has been told 4000 times over .

the trailer looks much more exciting than the boredom of actually playing.
but then I guess it has to in order to sell the movie.
as a result of the movie, will casino execs make a better game to attract new, so-called counters, keep rules the same, or tighten up like oysters?

I think that casino execs should make a better game, but generally they should have years ago.
lets see what the gang from bj institute has to say...

hopefully the movie will have some information in it that will educate the public as to what is a real blackjack game as compared to the counterfeit "blackjack" games casino's are trying to shove down their throats.

I seriously doubt that will happen.

Well the previews make Jim Sturgess look like a math genius, so that may make kids think u need to be a genius.

[after Ray spills a box of toothpicks on the floor]
Raymond: 82, 82, 82.
Charlie: 82 what?
Raymond: Toothpicks.
Charlie: There's a lot more than 82 toothpicks, Ray.
Raymond: 246 total.
Charlie: How many?
Sally Dibbs: 250.
Charlie: Pretty close.
Sally Dibbs: There's four left in the box.

^All fantasy ("Do you want to bet one chip or two, Ray"), but still probably one of the most memorable card counting scenes in a movie that I can recall.

Movie looks gay. I will pay 9 bucks to see it but I dont think it is close to what I was expecting. Yet on the other hand, I have higher expectations then even someone like Kevin Spacy.

Two Thumbs down. Ben M can suck a fat one.
