"Do not pass go" is about to sound way more dramatic than it ever has before.
From L.A.-based production company Half Day Today comes this ridiculously action-packed trailer for "Monopoly: The Movie." It's the classic tale of your favorite childhood board game (sort of) with all the tiny metal thimbles, green houses and mustachioed rich guys you remember.
We don't know what's more ridiculous: this trailer, or the fact that as of a year ago, a real-life Monopoly movie is actually in the works.
Holly Shit! You had me at "the community chest." When the hell is this movie coming out? This has to be real right? Can you imagine going to see this in the theaters. Everyone in there would either be drunk, high or tripping their balls off. It's not one of those movies you go to on date night. For one your chick would just shit all over you. "Are you kidding me? You'll go to the movies to see Monopoly but you wont take me to see the Lion King on Broadway?" Honey, we all know Simba takes over and they sing can you feel the love tonight and then some douch-bags in tights skip around the stage. But Monopoly? who knows what happens! Does this kid put up 2 Hotels on Park Place and live like Trump or is he slumming it up on Baltic ave with a split level ranch? (Shit I think that was a game of life reference). Does he get to play with the Dog or the Car? Cause we all know nobody wanted to be the fuckin Iron or the thimble. Fuck that dude. My mom knew not to pull some shit like that. If I didn't get the Dog or the Car I wasn't fucking playing. End of Story. And no dad, it wasn't cool when you would take the car and then hide the dog and act like I had no choice but to be the friggin thimble. I see the dog bro, you just slipped it under the couch while I was watching. Now gimme that little silver Scottish Terrier and roll the fuckin dice.
PS. Daniel Day Lewis would have killed it as the Monopoly guy. Hell he could have just been the same character as he was in Gangs of New York just give him a white mustache.
