So here I am watching diggnation instead of working on my essay that's due tomorrow. But that's cool. Fixed myself a White Russian and just sat back...
And for the hell of it, here's a couple sentences on a few comedies that are out or are coming out soon.
The Love Guru - Mike Meyers recycles jokes from Wayne's World and Austin Powers in this sad, sad shadow of a movie from a man I love so much. Also, why the fuck is Justin Timberlake in this movie? Never mind his atrocious acting, his character really had no point.
What Happens In Vegas - I dunno. Girls seemed to like it. I thought it was tolerable enough -- and that's coming from someone that doesn't care for either Ashton Kutcher or Cameron Diaz. The only part that had me laughing, however, came just a couple of seconds into the end credits.
Baby Mama - Ah, funny brunettes -- my only weakness! Tina Fey and Amy Poehler serve up some laughs in a comedy where you forgive the predictable plot for the one liners you'll pick up. Bitch, I don't know your life!
Run Fatboy Run - I found this more sad than funny... A guy runs away from his pregnant bride-to-be only to enter a marathon later in life against her new boyfriend. I'd expect better things from Michael Ian Black and Simon Pegg, but it's not a deplorable movie. Also, it has a phenomenally disgusting scene involving a blister that almost had me throwing up... So beware of that.
The Foot Fist Way - Starring the guy with a neck brace from Pineapple Express who also played the explosives expert that nearly killed Jamie Lee Curtis on the set of Freaky Friday in Tropic Thunder (Danny McBride), this is a mean-spirited comedy that is pretty much what you would get if you theorized on the daily activities of Diedrich Bader's character from Napoleon Dynamite. The first 30 minutes had some guffaws, but after that it just gets meaner and bleaker.
So there you go. I'll be able to watch Iron Man and Forgetting Sarah Marshall for the first time this week, so it's possible I might write something on those... Or not.
