Paul Rudd: So very hot.

A friend and I discussed the need for there to be a steamy love scene between him and Mark Ruffalo.

congrats on your most awkward nickname since 'pundneb' xpost

is there a Ruffalo poll?

horseshoe, Friday, 6 March 2009 20:14 (4 years ago) Permalink

i don't know about a love scene between him and ruffalo but at least a buddy movie. or maybe they could be brothers- also they fall for the same woman and hilarity and hijinx ensue.

Dude talked about the wedding incident on a Conan I saw a few weeks ago. He seem genuinely upset about it.

Gen-Y Cops is hilarious, and his hair is very funny in this also.

Okay admittedly this is all I have seen of this movie, but it's probably all you need to see.

he was very funny discussing gen y cops on the daily show

Just watched THE TEN off the DVR yesterday. Rudd brings the funny as always. As a straight man, ws Paul Rudd if given the chance.

I Love You, Man is really really great (well up until the kind of sappy predictable ending, but that's like five minutes and totally perfunctory.) Easily the best thing Rudd has been the lead in.

ugh I did not like I Love You Man. Rudd and Segel = the least convincing "real-estate agent" and "investor," respectively, ever. lazy writing all around.

schef & i agree, makes Apatow look like Lubitsch

yeah it was waaaaaaaaaaaay too cute without enough of any of the wit/dirt that makes a lot of the other movies being discussed on this thread great. it's really, really cutesy, as opposed to the sweet but little bit twisted thing going on in, say, role models or 40 yo virgin. the "paul rudd can't give ppl nicknames" joke was funny.

also, rush? seriously? that is like third-hand lazy bullshit "we have to pick some ridiculous old band to be the thing the dudes obsess over because that's the type of movie this is" crap. kiss worked in role models because A) there are ppl under 57 who like kiss B) it played out into a hilarious thing in the climax of the film. the rush thing was so I GIVE UP when i was watching i love you man.

i went into it really wanting to like it too, unlike morbs!

also, this is subjective, but the running "jaime pressley is smokin hot" joke in the film, when the female lead is RASHIDA JONES? O_o maybe, if you are racist, jaime pressley is the hotter lady.

rudd's dude was overly sincere was the problem i think, it robs him of his essence to not be a little cynical/hateful, too many "i love you so much you pretty lady!" kind of romcom lines that i have to wince at as a rule, but segal was great in this and i thought it was cute if a bit cutesy at times.

had read there was not a lot of improvisation here and it shows.

also i could rly relate to paul rudd's inability to leave a message on voice mail because that is how approximately 96.71% of my messages sound of ppls phones

Marrakesh and Ashley Olsen (m bison), Saturday, 21 March 2009 21:07 (4 years ago) Permalink

schef, I went into it really expecting to laugh at least once. Found nearly all the Rudd stumblebum cutesy stuff way too self consciously look-at-me, not funny.

Some blogger said the writers learned everything they knew about men from beer commercials. Thw women were all cardboard cutouts.

Did none of these folks expect the goodwill gesture of Andy Samberg playing a "regular guy" gay would be wiped out by horrific "eww my mouth tastes like the homo who kissed me, I better use Comet" gag? I gagged.

Role Models was funnier to me than anything up there since Clueless, and he wasn't old enough in that to be as funny as he is now.

Do not endorse anything that might rescind any win by Wet Hot American Summer.

Nurse Detrius (Eric H.), Sunday, 22 March 2009 17:58 (4 years ago) Permalink

I bet "the goodwill gesture of Andy Samberg playing a 'regular guy' gay" is a totally hollow gesture unless we get to see Samberg wrapping those pillowy lips around some other guy's face.

Nurse Detrius (Eric H.), Sunday, 22 March 2009 17:59 (4 years ago) Permalink

point taken, we don't

sounds like 'i love you, man' should have been directed by david wain.

(btw i watched role models over the weekend, so great. whoever said that the outtakes were the best was right, like paul rudd and elizabeth banks kissing for the last scene and busting out the old "you taste like a burger/i don't like you anymore" bit)

Yeah I complained about this in my review, though I went with a gay friend who found that scene unfunny but not homophobic.

Simon H., Monday, 23 March 2009 15:15 (4 years ago) Permalink

i get why youd read that subtext into that scene but i thought they made it pretty clear that it was the taste of cigarettes not the homo kiss

oh come on, the cigarette taste is mentioned 3-4 different times in a 2-minute scene. it wasnt ace ventura, thats for sure.
