yes man - the movie


It's a good one. If your in a nice feeling type movie mood. Jim Carrey is good as usual. It's definitely worth it. Also, that Zooey chick from ELF and this movie is now the hottest chick alive. She is too fine.

I watched it some time last week, was good :) Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Knocked Up which we watched the next day.



A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Agreed. I laughed my ass off at this in the theater.

So, wow, Jim Carrey has a winner? I'll have to check it out, despite the premise seeming very similar to Liar Liar.

Also, Knocked Up is a great flick.

40 year old virgin, superbad, zack and miri, forgetting sara marshall, pineapple express...basically anything with Paul Rudd or Seth Rogen is almost garuanteed to be either slightly humorous and worth a watch or just hilarious. and it's not because of those two...they're not ahead of their time...theyre just always involved in well written/good comedies. The only one I can think of that fell short is Knocked Up, some hilarious parts but mostly just boring.

I haven't seen I Love You Man, but that and Observe and Report look to be good also.

I'm not a fan of all of Will Ferrels stuff but once in a while he's on point. Step Brothers was fucking hilarious. He was pretty awesome in Eastbound and Down too. Usually he's best in small doses, like his cameo in Wedding crashers.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is way better than the trailers made it look. It's a pretty adult comedy for that crew too. Not adult in the explicit sense, but in the maturity kind of way.

Will Farrell's had some winners. Anchorman is one of my all time favorite movies.

Jim Carrey I can not get into. I feel like I'm watching the same goofy character every time. Liar Liar was probably the only movie of his i saw that I liked.

All of Adam Sandler's crap comedies get a pass because Happy Gilmore is one of the greatest movies ever. Yes, I'll even forgive Water Boy. That said, I think he's great in non-comedy roles - I thought Punch-Drunk Love and Reign Over Me were great.

I love will ferrell, but his shit is 50/50.
YES: Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Old School, Elf, Stranger Than Fiction
NO: Melinda & Melinda, Kickin & Screaming, Bewitched, Step Brothers.





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was awesome, one of the best comedies I've seen in a long time.

Adam Sandler in Click was pretty damn good, comedy/drama or something. Good movie, cool message. I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry was also pretty good, Kevin James is usually funny and with Sandler it was a good combo with less of the usual Happy Gilmour shit.

Role Models is another good movie with Seann William Scott and Paul Rudd I've seen recently. Other than that it's been horror & action. I need to find more decent comedies.

Not a big fan of stupid comedies, but I will say that when Will Ferrell is on, he's really on. I very nearly pissed myself the first time I saw Anchorman and I still love that movie. I thought Old School sucked and Talladega Nights only had a handful of scenes I found genuinely funny, same goes for Stepbrothers although it had a few more funny scenes than Talladega did.

Adam Sandler ruins everything for me. I fucking hate that guy and his version of comedy makes me want to kill him slowly and painfully. Even movies with a somewhat decent premise that have him in a small role are instantly destroyed the moment he appears on screen.

Jim Carrey I would say is a douche overall, but he's had a few movies I've loved. Man On The Moon was excellent and I really liked Me, Myself, & Irene. There's some seriously twisted shit in that movie and I'm still surprised at how much didn't get cut for the theatrical release.

I started watching Step Brothers last night... I have to say, there are parts in that movie that make me nearly piss myself. In particular, John C Reilly farting for like 2 minutes while interviewing for a job with Seth Rogen and Rogen saying "i can taste it on my tongue." For some reason, that shit is just really really funny.

Yeah. It's crazy childish, but I got a huge fucking kick out of it. There's rarely anything I ever really just hate as far as movies go. I rated that one a 3 star on Netflix. Hell, I did something I rarely do and watched the deleted scenes and stuff like that. If you didn't watch the whole video for "Boats n Hoes" you should've, hilarious.
