As our own Matt Raub pointed out recently, there are some pretty great, and some pretty awful, movie titles out there. Luckily, a few talented screenwriters and actors feel the same way and are bringing us Hot Tub Time Machine — which, I’m sure you will agree, is an awesome title for a movie.

The movie itself, written by Sean Anders and John Morris with direction by Steve Pink, sounds pretty great too. Four guys decide to bond on a ski trip and party hard all night on Red Bull and Vodka. They continue the night in the house’s hot tub, which transports them to 1986, where hi-jinks then ensue. With a cast that John Cusack, Craig Robinson (The Office, Zach and Miri Make a Porno), Clark Duke (Sex Drive, Superbad), and Rob Corddry (What Happens in Vegas, Harold and Kumar 2) the film seems to be a sure-fire winer.

And now, we’ve got a brand new Red Band trailer for the film which was just released this afternoon. In this latest one, we get more action, more sex, more drugs and more time travel. Sounds like a great time to us (pun intended).

The film, which also stars Chevy Chase, Crispin Glover and the terrific Kat Dennings, hits theaters on March 19th.

The premise sounds pretty much like bliss once you hear the names involved. Four guys decide to bond on a ski trip and party hard all night on Red Bull and Vodka. They continue the night in the house’s hot tub, which transports them to 1986, where hi-jinks then ensue.

The aforementioned names involved are John Cusack, Craig Robinson (The Office, Zach and Miri Make a Porno), Clark Duke (Sex Drive, Superbad), and Rob Corddry (What Happens in Vegas, Harold and Kumar 2). The film basically looks like The Hangover meets Back to the Future, with a little bit of Click thrown in for heart.
