The hangover

[cireksu]

I think they forced it too much in The Hangover though.  They made Galifinakis into some complete retard ("Ratard" LOL). I didn't think the movie lived up to the hype, which is what I think the people in this thread are trying to say, it didn't live up to the hype.  It had some good zingers, but every legitimate comedy has some zingers.

The idea of the movie kind of pissed me off too.  Those who said it was like Dude Where's My car were spot on.  Except instead of some anonymous town, let's make it VEGAS. 

A more appropriate title would have been Dude Where's my Groom.  See?  Sounds stupid. 

this.  BTW I'm finding more and more people that feel like I do but were afraid to speak up.

Saw this the other day.   


 

What's up with the "fat guy who thinks he's funny but really isn't" thing over the last couple years.  That zack dude, jack black, seth rogan.  They all think they're going to be the next Belushi or Farley, but in reality, we can all only wish they'd OD.

Please show me the interview where any of them compared themselves to Belushi or Farley.

What is it with middle-aged men always reminiscing about the "good ol' days" and failing to realize that things are just as good now as they were back then?

yes. if you want more proof of this then go to the aperoom (which i'm sure you do) and read their weekly snl takes..

"wow. snl sucks this week."
"yeah, but it sucks pretty much every week."
"yeah has sucked for years"
"why is this show still on? just watched for the first time in seven years and it's horrible"
"yeah. it was great seven years ago (ferrell, etc.). sux now though."
"disagree w/ previous poster. ferrell et al sucked. it was good when it was sandler, farley, spade, etc. however"
"oh my god. how can you say that spade and sandler were funny? they were terrible. that's when i stopped watching. it officially got bad when eddie murphy and dana carvey left."
"belushi ftw"
"yeah. belushi was amazing and then the show has sucked since."


also, pretty sure that the gfak haters are some kind of spawn of this. "gfak isn't funny but tommy boy...lol. i mean, lmao. oh jeez. that farley guy, he was a belushi. ya know?"

thought that you go there. nothing more. their snl threads really beat anything out there though in terms of "stuff that used to be funny when i was 18... but now it's not."


 btw- is it just me or did snl start to go downhill once mike myers left? jmo.

Definitely read it fairly often. A lot of good stuff but a lot of jerking eachother off too. Biggest collection of rednecks on a message board and they don't even know it. A bunch of car loving, homophobic alcoholics that think they're the most cultured people on the internet.

[WillieWannabe]

OK, finally saw it because everyone i knew was f*cking quoting the movie the past week. Personally, I don't think it was as funny as everyone makes it sound. But Im not a Zach Gall. fan either. Ed Helms was definitely the best part. Would watch it again, but wont be quoting it all the f*cking time. IMO.

every single week they have a thread about how much snl sucks. somebody will complain about how bad it has become and then somebody will "qft" it and then somebody will talk about how they never watch it anymore because of how bad it is, but that they happened to watch it this weekend and that "it was even badder than bad."

basically the deal is that everyone in the history of the world (especially aperoom) thinks that snl was funny five or ten or twenty years ago (depending on their age) but the current version is unwatchable. it's funny. i guarantee that a good portion of people that complain about the current snl will be back in the aperoom in five years talking about how the snl in 2010 was funny but that the current version sucks. don't know why i think it's funny, but it is. i purposefully scroll through the aperoom threads just to find the "snl complain of the week" thread.

I think SNL is funny fwiw. I won't think its funny till i recognize faces and characters. So when they add new people, it takes me a while to find the humor.

[SkinnyBenny]

It baffles me why people never realize that humor is very generational, which very much determines SNL funniness to each individual.  Of course people who are   aren't going to find funny the idea of sloths hiring a dog to burn down a hospital, and of course people who are 15 aren't going to find Gilda Radner and Martin Short to be side-splittingly hilarious.  This is nothing new, it will always exist, and any old person who goes, "totally, it's just not funny now like it used to be when ___________________ was on the cast" is just having a hard time coming to grips with the fact that they're now comedy has-beens.

I can't even remember anything worth quoting.
