You must review this movie. Definitely one of the funniest movies ever.

Post by: Ichirou on February 04, 2008, 10:32:11 PM: I thought it was such a sad movie. In life, Bones was a multi-layered antihero, but in death, he turned into a stereotypical villain. I suppose it could be seen as a metaphor for how popular entertainment takes complex, multi-faceted black men and turns them into stereotypical two-dimensional representations of evil.

I was renting some movies the other day and saw what appeared to be another gangsta mack horror flcik with Snoop, but I think it was just the Japanese title of Bones. Hard to tell. The cover looked fucking hilarious; wish I took a picture of it.

"hey whats wrong"

"theyre coming!"

"they already came"

"Its only begun!"

then he just storms off screen.

The Two Towers was the worst of the trilogy.

Possibly, the Two Towers was so terrible that I gave up on the series, but I assumed ROTK was even worse, what with the unlimited endings and gayness.
Title: Re: This movie is awful
Post by: Van Cruncheon on February 05, 2008, 12:01:10 AM: lol, okay, there's another funny bit with a character who is an actor who seems like a mash-up of all the male Friends. he's portrayed as a total pop culture buffoon. oh, larry! your hate runs strong! shame you ruined that scene with a botched testicle surgery!

Title: Re: This movie is awful
Post by: Van Cruncheon on February 05, 2008, 12:05:11 AM: man, the incidental music is straight up cye. so far, this is playing out like a very average cye episode, only jewisher, right down to the confused racial gags and codependent personality issues!

the setup for the major plot jokes is consistently awful, but some of the lines are pure ld and bring the lulz. man, though, the casting is bad. steven weber can act ld material well, but everyone else -- especially the chicks -- cannot deliver their lines convincingly. orlando jones is too black to read these lines, and we ALL know ld can't write women. well, okay, he can't write women that aren't telling him to do something with his sad little life.
Title: Re: This movie is awful
Post by: Van Cruncheon on February 05, 2008, 12:11:46 AM: i take that back. steven weber can't act larry david material, either. the scene where he reveals that he's upset with his gf over craig bierko's money snub despite the fact that he botched a testicle surgery and has officially ended his career sounds like a parody of jerry seinfeld delivery, only it isn't intentional.

the more i watch this, the more i think it isn't the script that's bad; it's the casting and direction.
Title: Re: This movie is awful
Post by: Van Cruncheon on February 05, 2008, 12:21:02 AM: hahahaha, the show-within-a-show parody of friends was awesome :lol

LARRY, NEVER STOP HATING

omg CRYSTAL BERNARD IT'S A WINGS REUNION
Title: Re: This movie is awful
Post by: Van Cruncheon on February 05, 2008, 12:27:08 AM: okay, steven weber in the last two-thirds of the movie *is* playing jerry seinfeld. wtf. i'm now convinced it's intentional. a hobo confronts him and asks for two quarters, and he responds in perfect mimickry of jerry's badly exaggerated "acting" style: "no sir, NO I DO NOT!"

then we cut to hobos trying to kill each other because friends sucks. how did this wind up unfunny?

aaaand then we're at a cafe where craig bierko is channeling george and steven weber is still channeling jerry, right down to the expressions and delivery. i guess larry david decided to switch from a mediocre cye episode to an awful seinfeld one.

i loved watching the trailers for that trying to predict how horrible it would be

like trying to watch casshern

Post by: Tauntaun on February 05, 2008, 11:25:27 AM: I got Casshern cause I remembered the animu being badass as a kid but the movie was horrible, Devilman takes triumph though and with logic like this, who can deny it?

*giant sperm spirit creature enters kid*

"It seems you didn't become a devil but you're only half devil, half human."

"We should go."
