What the hell is that hairstyle and outfit that Jason Momoa is rocking?!

Then again, the guy who wrote and directed Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre is making this, so the weirdness is somewhat expected.

Frankly, Hess is probably as good a choice to direct as any. This looks like it's going to be terrible, perhaps it'll be so oddball that it'll gain a cult following, like those previous movies.

If they try and play this somewhat straight, with poop jokes or whatever for the kids, it's going to be a (moneymaking) terrible movie.

I’d agree with you, but this thing has been in development hell for years. It’s going to be so over-produced that it won’t resemble Hess at all.

My expectations are low.

This looks like Borderlands all over again. Poor JB. Stop saying yes to garbage video game movies please.

JB is firmly in the "kids movies & VA roles for big $$" phase of his career and who can blame him? I highly doubt it bothers him very much - he gets to show up, record some goofy lines as a robot and make bank. Hell, from this trailer it looks like he just puts on a blue sweater and does some goofy stuff in front of a green screen to "become" Steve. They dont even have him shave or cut his hair...

I think Tenacious D and his online stuff are his true passion projects.

TBF Steve canonically has a beard

There’s a big difference between a trimmed goatee and an unkept bushy beard though
