Title: Super Troopers is actually funny
Post by: Van Cruncheon on January 16, 2007, 03:20:59 PM
Many LOLZ. I was suspicious, since the same folks who recommended it to me also recommended the unfunny Talladega Nights and Anchorman. I'm totally growin' a cop 'stache.

Because of this movie, every time Brian Cox was onscreen in Troy, my friend would lean over and say, "Hey Ursula...I'm NAKED"

But do you like it more than Club Dread?

I haven't seen Club Dread.

Clud Dread is pretty bad, Ramathorn is the only character I liked in the movie. I thought Beerfest was better than Super Troopers me, my friends, and the whole theater laughed the whole movie.

Beerfest is teh funny, Drinky.  Check it out.


So, Evilbore, should I watch the first American Pie straight to DVD movie and review it?

Club Dread is awful, but Super Troopers is probably the best R-rated comedy in decades.  Beerfest has its moments, but it's no Super Troopers!

Hey - it's Afghanistanimation!

"Next person who says shenanigans is going to get pistol whipped!"  "Hey, Farva, what's that restaurant that you always like to go to?"  "SHENANIGANS!?!"

There does seem to be a contingent of people that like Club Dread.  They are teh distinguished mentally-challenged.

I really don't know why.  After Club Dread and Dukes of Hazzard, I was going to write off the Broken Lizard guys as a fluke... but Beerfest has salvaged their reputation in my eyes.  They're still on the bubble, though!

Yeah, Beerfest is a good one, but I agree, it's no Super Troopers.  I only have watched Beerfest once, but I think I recall it going for the obvious a bit too much.

How was Beerfest anyway?

ST = awesome

CD = laughably bad

DH = no laughs, just bad :(

Beerfest was good but Super Troopers is a classic.

"Hey Farva, what's the name of that restaurant you like??"

O'Hagen: I swear to God, I'll pistol whip the next guy that says 'shenanigans!'
Mac: Hey Farva, what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?
Farva: You mean Shenanigans? You're talking about Shenanigans, right?!

:rofl :rofl :rofl

Afghanistanimation made me lol, 'specially when they had the German dude translating. I like that they play the gags straight, unlike, say, that talentless fuck Will Farell.

I love that bit where they state police have Farva butt naked and are delousing him:

"It's just standard procedure."

"... but it's sugar!"

"... The lice hate the sugar."

every scene with Farva was awesome.

I like how the "big fight" at the climax is purposely as anti-climactic as it could be.

I was interested in seeing Super Troopers, but a bunch of us had rented Club Dread before I got around to it, and Club Dread was completely fucking awful.  Not one laugh among us through the whole movie.  When even titties can't save your movie, it's bad.  Now I am hesitant to watch ST, because the only impression I am left with of Broken Lizard is that they are the least talented comedy troupe in the history of comedy troupes.

I don't know wtf happened between ST and CD, but they went from hilariously awesome to mind-numbingly bad.

Club dread sucked hard.

Super Troopers is indeed hilarious. Rent it Eel_O_Brian!

Holy shit that was great. 


I haven't seen this movie enough, just a couple of times.  It does get better every time you see it.  And that cute blonde could even give TVC a boner.
