I wasn't going to see this movie, but after reading this thread, I think I'm going to find the time. Still, I'll do so with caution, given all the love for Superbad that went around these parts. That was a horrible, godawfull, not funny flick.
If you thought Superbad was "horrible, godawful and not funny" then I'm guessing this movie is not for you. Maybe stick to "comedies" starring Matthew McConaughey.
Stepbrothers was fucking awesome. So many funny lines. So I don't really know what to make of this post. Does not compute.
I checked out the series of Between Two Ferns interviews over on Funny or Die after someone ... who was that? ... have to thank that person ... mentioned them a couple pages earlier ... Go watch them. ZG is so uncomfortably funny. So funny.
Saw that The Hangover finished number one at the box office. Great headline potential. "Hangover throws Up off the top spot."
I agree. There were some great lines and gags. Kathryn Hahn was hysterical and I loved the "Sweet Child of Mine" performance in the car.
Stepbrothers just shows how much funnier comedies can be when they're not worried about preserving their precious PG-13 rating. When Hangover 2 comes out, some studio prick will say, "The first one made $150 million (I'm guessing). Imagine how much more it could make if kids could see it." and we'll get a sequel without nudity, the f-word and off-color jokes. Because execs are that fucking dumb.
Will Ferrell would throw on a funny nose and glasses and run around in his underwear for half a movie if he thought somebody would pay him for it. And, yeah, the guy has definitely made the same movie six times in a row. And he'll probably do it six more times in a row after this. Because he has no range.
