Paul Rudd and Steve Carell are still schmucking funny

Here's the trailer and poster for new frat-pack comedy Dinner For Schmucks. Paul Rudd and Steve Carell are in it. That's enough.

Don't worry, I hadn't heard of it either before today, but then Rudd and Carell churn out these comedies every couple of days it seems. The formula goes: get a ridiculous concept, hire Rudd, Carell, Rogen, Segel, Vaughn or Ferrell, let them do what they want in front of the camera. Works every time.

The ridiculous concept in this case? Here comes the synopsisy bit:

It looks funny enough. Steve Carell plays a character that's more Brick from Anchorman than Michael Scott from The Office, and Paul Rudd just plays Paul Rudd. And I wouldn't have him any other way. [I'd have him every way imaginable - Ed]

Throw in Zach Galifianakis in a wacky role, Ron Livingston for some Swingers cred and, yes, I believe I spotted Mel from Flight Of The Conchords in there too. Sold.
