Semi-Pro Red Band Movie Trailer

New Line has released a new Red Band (read: R-Rated or uncensored) movie trailer for Will Ferrell's upcoming comedy Semi-Pro, and it actually makes the movie look funny (unlike every piece of advertising that has come before it). Walk Hard suffered from the same problem. Most people were turned off by the film's advertising. The Red Band trailer was funny but very few people saw it, and even fewer bought a ticket to Dewey Cox this weekend, which is a shame. But Will Ferrell is a much more viable as a comedy star, and this film shouldn't have problem doing business. Watch the new Semi-Pro Red Band Trailer below.
