I’ve always kinda wanted to punch James Franco in the teeth.

Maybe it’s because his Green Goblin/Harry Osborne was a whiny pee pants in Sam Raimi’s SPIDER-MAN trilogy. Actually, there’s no maybe. That’s exactly why.

But I also want to deck him in the chops because I have a daughter who will graduate from high school in 2017 and the redband trailer for WHY HIM? hits a little too close to home. I’m talking a straight Mr. Miyagi to the fatherly soft parts. I’m just not ready to send my daughter into the big, wide world and hand her off to some dude. Such is the love of father’s for their daughters.

WHY HIM? hits theaters on December 23, 2016 and stars James Franco (DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES), Bryan Cranston (GODZILLA), Zoey Deutch (DIRTY GRANDPA) and Megan Mullally (KINGS OF SUMMER).
