That cover art just screams 'pedophile'

Santorum fighting the good, American cause as per usual. Sigh, it disturbs me that people are actually voting for him more than anything.

And I'm glad I alerted you to the cover art. It took me a while to get over the fact that it wasn't a photoshop.

A new Larry the Cable Guy movie? I think we're off at a bad start for 2012. o_0

They managed to get Larry the Cable Guy to wear pink without his fan-base thinking any less of him. That's fairly progressive, isn't it?

It's also further definitive proof that the cinema is more capable of crafting and delivering tales than video games.
That box art alone is likely inspiring all manner of imaginings in everyone right now(whether an accurate representation of the contents of the Blu-ray box or not)than the entirety of the likes of BioShock or Half-Life or even X-Blades.

When does your next review come out? Get rid of these imposters like Jim Sterling and... the others.

Great. It had been months since I was reminded that Larry the Cable Guy was still alive, but now no longer. THANKS Destructoid for ruining my day.

I remember like, twenty years ago, someone proposed a tooth fairy movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

So glad he knew better.

So, it might be because I just watched all the seasons of Psyche in a few week long marathon, but Larry kinda looks like a younger, obese, Corbin Bernsen with a goatee in that header image.

Like Corbin wearing a fatsuit and dressing like a redneck. In pink.

He may have known better about that 20 years ago.. But some could definitely say he didn't know better about other things...

True that. His CGI cameo in Terminator: Salvation may have been his finest work this decade. Well, as far as acting anyway.
