yes this movie sucked. neil labute should go ahead and quit. (maybe he already has?)

oh man - t-shirt, trenchcoat, eager fresh face, playing pilotwings - i love him

i have to admit to a soft spot for those crappy neil labute cruel-privileged-people movies. it's pretty indefensible but, c'mon, that ending of shape of things is so lol. his career has really taken a turn for the nutty btw:

2010 Death at a Funeral

2008 Lakeview Terrace

2006 The Wicker Man

wow I had not realized until now that the Wicker Man was him

he really does hate women doesn't he

Our Idiot Brother is an enjoyable film albeit slight.

the first film he's done that's gotten decent reviews in eons

elizabeth banks does a credible parker posey impersonation through the entire film

paul rudd does a very good dude from leibowski

basically the entire movie seems like other movies, but I liked it.

my butt itches

I kind of miss the early days of the Daily Show when they would get Paul Rudd as the guest any time the real guest had to drop out for whatever reason.

saw 'our idiot brother' and i just want to cuddle paul rudd so bad right now

his role as the creepy lamaze instructor on Reno 911 was pretty fantastic

Also, this is amazing:

eh, no embedding...

just got no love for this Rudd guy

Our Idiot Brother would've been great, if it hadn't had the "happy ending for everyone" Hollywood ending. It was still okay (and Rudd was indeed endearing in it), but it was no Role Models.

Tuomas as Francesca Fiore and Bruno Pontz Jones in a Kids In The Hall sketch: "They would never kill hero in American movie, ah? No. With them, it's always the happy ending. Always the football player throw the ball for the big win, ah? Yes. Always the puppy, licking the face."

I saw Our Idiot Brother last night and it was pretty nice (the "slight" assessment above is in the right direction though, but I don think that's a real problem)but that end scene where they talked about the candle recycling is one of the funniest things I've seen in a comedy film in years.

Tuomas, I'd say Role Models suffered worse for the forced happy ending.

"just a couple of guys and a dog makin' candles"
"what a cliche!"

In Role Models the happy endings felt organic,because the stories culminated with them, the whole movie was about earning those happy endings. Whereas in Our Idiot Brother the happy endings felt more tacked-on, something that had to be included because (according to the cliche) no story can end on an ambiguous or open note. (I'm not talking about the candle-making thing, that was fine, but was it really necessary to introduce a new love interest for the protagonist literally in the last scene? That was totally deus ex machina.)

No, the new love interest was not necessary and it was too neat for my liking (I also seen In A World recently and it was another slightly unusual comedy that had a forced crowdpleaser end it really didn't need) but surely the line in Role Models "when I get out of jail can I play with your 9 year old son?" (can't remember the exact line) underlined in a wink to the audience how unbelievable the resolution was.

I'd imagine that all three films had some of these things imposed on them.

I mean... these were light-hearted movies full of likable actors playing likable (if flawed) characters finding themselves in mild peril to comedic effect. If you can't handle movies like that ending on an up note then I don't even know...

It isn't the up note that bothers us, it's the contrived forced events that weaken the whole thing.

xp - idiot brother was pretty good imo. though i forgot this smug asshole was in it, i fuckin hate this guy:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/AdamScottTIFFSept2011.jpg/220px-AdamScottTIFFSept2011.jpg

got most of the quiz right, feel like he had a ruddier complexion in the older photos? he's gotten a little smoother as he's aged

a ruddier complexion

also i feel like i confuse "idiot brother" w/ "wanderlust" b/c they both have paul rudd and hippies in the movie, "wanderlust" was not very good though

that is not how you pronounce donegal

this dude is 50 in april 2019, wtf

yeah in Ant-Man and the Wasp, he looked like he'd aged five years max from Clueless, which actually came out 23 years ago.

also Michelle Pfeiffer playing his would-be mother-in-law was o_O considering they've been in a rom-com playing each other's love interest.

Not true:

I have watched this clip multiple times in the last week and I dont get sick of it.

I mean its not quite up there with Celery Man but its damn good.

I love him but let's cut it out with the "I can't believe (celebrity) looks this good at age (x)!" meme, these people are barely humans, such is their access to health and wellness regimens, which I imagine in many cases are more or less mandatory

(yes, I hate fun)

Man owns a candy shop

One of the many things that is great about the Rudd video is how he (who whomever) absolutely nails the weird '90s nostalgia, which is a real thing even though I never thought it would or could be a thing (though of course it could be and is). My girls wear mom jeans.

we gotta yeet this virus
