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.

Very, very funny movie, but it is no Old School.
Old School is ok, nothing more. Superbad, Wedding Crashers and Anchorman were far more enjoyable. Road Trip is below those three, but ahead of Old School.
I like all of the movies you mentioned here. I love one or two of them. Old School is the best of the bunch. And, to me, it really isn't that close.
EDIT: Whoa. Just noticed you said Road Trip is better than Old School? Road Trip? Now I KNOW you're on crack![]()
Ferrill's character in Old School is like the one in Talladega Nights, Step Brothers, that figure skating movie. He'll run around semi-naked, yell and scream, make a few deck jokes. Who forking cares?
What do you want him to do, Shakespeare?
Funny is funny. So, yeah, I care.
What do I want him to do? I dunno. Maybe not make the same movie six times in a row. That'd be a start.
I agree. There were some great lines and gags.Some Guy said:doubledown68 said:Step Brothers was a piece of ship.

Stepbrothers was forking awesome. So many funny lines. So I don't really know what to make of this post. Does not compute.
Mizzougrad96 said: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 forking dumb.

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.
