TED / Ted looks hilarious. The trailer delivers a fake out, sans the first Muppets trailer, pitching a romantic comedy between Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis until… enter Ted. Though I do feel this comedy will be hit or miss much like each episode of Family Guy, with an R rating and roughly 90 minutes (give or take), there are endless possibilities to be had.
Mark Wahlberg is truly a perfect comedic actor. The Other Guys was hilarious and Wahlberg contributed a lot to that. Mila Kunis is also a veteran comedic actress now, with Friends With Benefits and Date Night under her belt. And I trust Seth McFarlane to display his strengths in his first feature outing.
Here’s what I know for sure, the part where Mark Wahlberg lists off the “white-trash names” with impressive speed made me laugh until I cried. Also, I often recall Ted grabbing some woman’s breast with a grin on his face and the woman responds with a laugh like “isn’t that adorable”. It will be elements like these that could possibly make Ted one of the best comedies of the year.
