farrelly brothers

you sold my dead bird to a blind kid?

The new one is kind of a long I Love Lucy episode with cocks and caca.

sounds great

it's fine, fittingly, for about 30 minutes!

Kingpin is still awesome all these years later.

the premise of this movie is so ridiculously misogynistic that i'm slightly hurt by sudeikis' involvement in it

it does seem like an Apatow parody

or maybe a Hangover parody

not as foul as Apatow's worst. The guys are outright idiots at the beginning, but of course things get (relatively) warm & fuzzy.

I was most impressed w/ Christina Applegate! Billy Wilder woulda cast her a lot.

Applegate's great in pretty much anything

disappointed that the Farrellys don't actually have a movie called I Am Clinically Retarded, unless that was the working title for Fever Pitch or something

i have to admit this doesnt look bad to me - commercials promise an applebee's gag, richard jenkins and a lot of misogyny, im on board

kingpin is their all time best btw

didnt even realize they directed fever pitch, i guess there were a few years there when studios looked at About A Boy and said 'we gotta get us one of those!'

btw of the 4 big gross-out set pieces in this one, audience groaned more than laughed at 2 or 3.

how about Applebee's product placement?

is that 1 of the gross out set pieces

I only saw two gross out gags in this one but they both seemed really out of place, still admit I laughed

altogether I can say it was better than Shallow Hal (which was god awful), mostly entertaining but only a few legit laughs in the whole thing; the whole side plot with Christina Applegate and the baseball player seemed unnecessarily cruel and a bit too serious for a movie like this. also it has the Apatow staple plot where an awkward, loserish guy somehow manages to charm a girl way out of his league by being weird and stammering a lot around her

The Applegate strand was the most appealing one for me! Needed some 'serious'!

Also, ballplayer had an awesome torso.

except this woman is pretty much just a pair of tits

i mean really, there is nothing at all there other than that

apatow broads usually have something beyond that

loved the hipsters-who-like-snow-patrol bit, zeitgeisty

for all that, this was better than most third-rate bro comedies

wait, I guess there were two women who wanted him, I would only say one of them was just a pair of whoppers

the hipster thing was kinda funny at first but it just veers off into really weird territory at the end, like "we need an exciting climax with action and some danger" so they just have someone go completely off the deep end for no real reason

that said the hard cut to credits in the end really was hilarious

stoked.

Original is a deathless masterpiece but it's hard to believe this will be worth the effort

being D&D'r in yr 50s, nagl

a topic you know a lot about

(sorry, it was there, i had to)

flag on the play

I didn't realize they still wound up doing The Three Stooges movie, w/ out Mel Gobson or Sean Penn.

Sean Hayes wound up playing Larry.

Wait...you didn't have to see/review that, did you? If so, you have my deepest sympathies.

oh wow, i didn't think this movie could get any worse but then i noticed that the entire cast of Jersey Shore portrays themselves in this.

they just showed kingpin the other day, still like the movie but it could have been so much better

Dargis and Gleiberman are fans of T3S. I dodged this bullet through lack of advance screenings.

I can see it not being terrible, tho. Just gratuitous.

Kingpin finally has a fresh home video release.

def their best movie imo

Kingpin is not *that* funny, that's all. (I was even tired of Murray by the last 20 minutes.) Their plots always turn to mush, but not always as dully as this one.

There's really nothing more '90s than cameos by Urge Overkill AND Roger Clemens.

ha

probably unpopular hereabouts but dumb & dumber is the one these fucks landed imo, just a happy open-throated belch of a film, so funny all the time. Amazing one-off double act chemistry too

"just a happy open-throated belch of a film"

lol

I said probably unpopular without reading thread or poll results obv

Peter Farrelly has in fact made a far richer, more rewarding film than Green Book addressing the subject race in America. It is called My, Myself and Irene (2000), and involves Jim Carrey being cucked by Tony Cox over a period of decades.
