And if I see Van Helsing, I swear to the Lord I will slay him

I just got finished watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and holy crap... I hate myself for missing this in the theater! I think I may have fallen in love a little bit -- I mean, you see Jason Segel's penis like four times, you can't help but feel a little close.

Even if you don't elect to see this movie (you fucking scumbag), you should at least watch this scene:

A musical about Dracula with puppets? Fucking brilliant! This just replaced Show Me Your Genitals 2 as the song that I'm going to be singing to myself all the time.

It might not have quite the LPM (laughs per minute, as coined by Jeff Cannata) of Knocked Up, but it's up there with the best of the Apatow movies. Plus, if you watch it on Blu-ray, you'll enjoy some lovely Hawaiian scenery. The only thing I didn't like was that Kristen Bell is cross-eyed or something and it's terribly distracting. Poor girl.

But seriously, this movie has heart and you won't feel like you're an idiot for enjoying it. Well done, Mr. Segel -- your first screenplay was fantastic. I would also pay to see a full-length Dracula musical.

So is it funnier than Tropic Thunder? Definitely. Funnier than Pineapple Express? Yes -- and you're a terrible person with a black soul and diseased genitals if you miss this movie when it comes out next week.

Also, for people that care, you can find Jason Bateman in the extras. Well, I'm afraid I just blue myself...

Kat and I saw this with her older sister in a theater with a bunch of people in their mid 50's PLUS. It was a little awkward, I was surprised a so many of them stayed.

I only remember seeing penis once though.

Paul Rudd's character was pretty funny for the one-liners.

"I once saw him beat a guy up with a starfish! "

"That's ridiculous. "

"That guy was me. "

many LOLs

Well, you know DVDs and their extended-ness... That's where the extra penis footage pops up I guess (two scenes, but multiple exposures).

I like the guy who plays Kenneth on 30 Rock. "When they mix the violence and the sexuality -- I like it!"

Also his wife in the movie is the same girl that Gerri Blank has a crush on in Strangers with Candy.

There's a karaoke option on the Blu-ray. Totally rocked it to Dracula's Lament near closing.
