Let’s face it, Mike Myers has made some funny movies over the years. And whether or not you are willing to admit in public that you enjoyed all 3 Austin Powers flicks, you have to be willing to say that the guy is funny. For my money, his best role of all time was as part of a hockey movie, Mystery, Alaska, a flick that was highly underrated. With his next film The Love Guru, Myers goes back to the well with a film that has a hockey theme to it.

USA Today has published the first picture from the film, which coincidentally also stars my future wife. Take a look below.

First impression: Wow, Jessica Alba is smokin’ hot. Second Impression: Mike Myers looks like a huge tool. But then again, Myers has in the past been able to handily pull off looking like a huge tool while also being funny. Since this is only the first look from probably the first day of shooting, the quality of the film is still up in the air, but it at least gets one bonus point off the bat for Alba — something that still didn’t help Good Luck Chuck. More information about the film is below.
