I'm more annoyed by the Adam Sandler movie, to be honest. Although, doesn't it seem like these "outrageous" comedies always come in pairs?

Zohan looks horrible.  And this is from someone who didn't think Little Nicky looked that bad (it was, even worse than it looked, really.)

I don't really care about Love Guru, I haven't been peppered with ads for that one yet.  The appearance on American Idol was gay as fuck, and I'm already tired of the 'MariskaHargatey' greeting.  

The funny thing is if Love Guru was a hit, she would be more famous for being his greeting than her decade on SVU.

Robert Smigel was one of the writers on Zohan, so I remain cautiously optimistic.  I get the feeling that there'll be a few great jokes here and there, otherwise spoiled by the Sandler Comedy-Bot.

I like how just having a midget in a movie passes for a joke these days. Look at him, he's smaller than a regular person, isn't that hilarious?!?!?!?! And if you think that's funny, just wait until you see him get hit in the crotch! A midget! Hit in the crotch! Priceless!

Midgets were funny on the stern show in like, 1992.  Now they are as unfunny as mimes(unless they are drunk and/or mentally impaired.)

Neither Zohan nor Love Guru can touch the soul-crushing awfulness of this little gem from our friends at Disney:

.

Love Guru really just looks like a half-assedly reheated Austin Powers movie.  You know it's going to be awful when the majority of things in the trailer are things that you already saw in Mike Myers movies.  It's been how many years and he hasn't come up with any new material?  Not even new sight gags?  SMH.

Just to be contrary, I'm going to go ahead and say that I'm going to like The Love Guru. And I'll give Zohan that it's premise is a wee bit more clever than I would expect for a Sandler flick, even if it is just an excuse for the stupidity that follows.

But then, I still laugh at farts.

I saw Zohan last night and it was wretched. Granted there is some amusing comments about Israeli/Palestine relations but no one else in the theatre seemed to get them. It would have been better except that 90% of the "comedy" in the movie was dick/sex with old people jokes.

I really hate vern troyer.  He's from a small town about 10 minutes from where I grew up and when he got famous people wouldn't shut the fuck up about him.

Although I certainly don't envy his particular weirdness, I can admit that I envy a person who has managed to become filthy rich on the basis of his natural weirdness.
