Hear how people actually talk? Please.

Fuck that Mizzou, I think they went over-fucking-board in all the gratuitous language in this movie... now I'm not a god damn prude, but this was too much. Shit, they were smoking marijuana cigarettes and using poor language in every fucking scene.

I don't know what fucking world you live in, but nobody cusses this much in their fucking mundane, everyday life.

Fuck.

 

They were a bunch of 20-something year old stoners. Being a 20-something year old stoner myself, the language was pretty realistic. This isn't a family comedy so I don't see the problem.

 

Hi. I'm IJAG. Perhaps you haven't read my posts.

 

Or your PMS

 

The language in our newsroom is 1,000X worse than that movie...

 

DogpoundDH is being sarcastic, BB. As someone who hates the "sarcasm font" with a burning passion, I support his decision to let the subtlety of his post speak for itself.

 

My wife and younger (20+) stepdaughter took it in last night and that's the first thing they said. They liked it, weren't knocked out by it, but both were wishing they'd dialed back a bit on the F-meter.

 

The language didn't bother me...

It's Rated R for a reason... If you don't want to hear the language, keep it PG-13...

I remember seeing the South Park movie and a moron parent running for the door with her two kids (both under 10) as soon as Uncle Fucker started...

 

Thanks, I just now remembered the blue font would have been applicable to my post. Fuck. My bad, kids.

 

I have a feeling people are trying too hard to make Heigl into the next Cameron Diaz...

I like Heigl, and I think she's hot as hell, but I have a feeling this is going to be her "Something About Mary" where she never ever comes close to making anything half as good.

I know Diaz may be considered A-list, but the only great movies she's been in since "Mary" came out are the first two Shreks. She's in a lot of bad movies that make a lot of money... More power to her, but she can't act for shit...

 

i happened to enjoy "gangs of new york."
