macgruber movie

Dane Cook is angry that he has one funny joke.

based on the special i saw part of, he's also angry that he can't be straight without having to spend time near vaginas

i don't hear too much about dane cook anymore. thankfully. is his 15 minutes of dice clay fame up yet?

dude stop trying to goad me into writing libelous shit about Dane Cook

is dane cook angry or funny? doesn't seem so. but he isn't on snl, i don't think.

PLEASE WRITE SOMETHING LIBELOUS ABOUT DANE COOK

i am making a special request

all these current people like forte make chevy chase look like some sort of immortal comedy god, and 75% of chevy's career is complete crap.

yeah, this ^^^^^

he was okay in modern problems imo

dane cook is still probably the single most popular stand-up comedian in america, so I would say that no, his 15 minutes of fame are not over

for me, chevy chase career highlights goes SNL > Spies Like Us > Community

dane's movie career seems kaput thankfully though

well wasn't his gambit to play against type or something? haven't most of his characters been unlike his standup?

i'd see this

SNL is unbearable at present. Dane Cook has been and always will be unbearable.

xp

# "Hjälp!" .... Dan Carter (8 episodes, 2009)

nah he's played a grabass jerk in every comedy i've seen part of and in the renowed costner thriller mr. brooks he kept acting like he was supposed to riff but had no material ("man i hate when people drive slowly on the highway...it's like...DRIVE FASTER!!!" that kind of shit)

lol at Gallagher

"So, not that I'm saying all of the following is excellent, but 75% of it is complete crap...?"

kinda! i've never seen The Karate Dog though.

Goose on the Loose

how did Dane Cook even end up in this thread

the macgruber trailer looks fucking hilarious to me, and I hate the current SNL.

the sketch that Forte plays the trick or treating sex offender has got to be the best thing he's done.

tbh the Macgruber sketches were the only thing I laughed at on the recent Betty White ep (which was the first time I'd watched the show in like 5 years or something)

well that's not entirely true, I guess I saw those Tina Fey/Sarah Palin bits, they were funny

can't see how anyone would expecting anything much better than that tbh

seriously, i'm surprised it did even that well.

american tragedy imo

i hope Richard Dean Anderson gets royalties from this film.

on second thought, maybe that wouldn't amount to much.

ha.

can't see how anyone would expecting anything much better than that tbh

while i didn't expect it to do wayne's world money, i am surprised with the positive buzz it couldn't do better than the second week of a queen latifah/common romance.

then again the movie has a 44 on metacritic so maybe our boy slock is more of an outlier than i assumed

im pretty sure i am :(

glenn kenny liked it tho

It's an absolutely terrible movie with several bits that will make you laugh until your head hurts. I'm actually puzzled as to how that works, because I mean the movie is TERRIBLE but also HILARIOUS.

okay then how does it compare to Step Brothers?

Step Bros is way more quotable but this was really funny/retarded.

i've seen the trailers and this Forte character seems too whiny to handle a whole movie.

the movie is TERRIBLE but also HILARIOUS.

otm, i don't know how it managed to be both simultaneously but it did.

forte's whininess led to the best parts of the movie imo.

he admirably doesn't try to make his character all that likable

the scene where you find out why him and val kilmer are enemies

OMG yes megalols
