Molly Shannon isn't really funny throughout the movie, but her arc does end in a pretty great bit of pedo-LTR-ing.

Eric H: not a troll, with one exception (Eric H.), Thursday, 23 June 2005 03:58 (eighteen years ago) link

i like her in it!

El Tomboto, Thursday, 10 July 2008 18:54 (fifteen years ago) link

Still not funny enough.

gene is the best character in the history of cinema

I saw Michael Showalter @ Foxwoods playing poker last week! I did not attempt to bro down or dap because A) he was just coming from the bathroom, B) I didn't want to stalk him to his higher-stakes table and C) I was probably busy getting my aces cracked. Supposedly, Michael Ian Black was also there.

I will go again this weekend, in the hopes of seeing Thomas Lennon or Ken Marino.

Alex was correct in his first post. Fucking terrible film.

nate woolls, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:13 (fifteen years ago) link

this may be the funniest movie.

Jordan, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:16 (fifteen years ago) link

Is there a thread somewhere for "The Ten"?

The Yellow Kid, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:23 (fifteen years ago) link

i didn't think this was very funny at all

akm, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:26 (fifteen years ago) link

This is alright, but PCU was funnier

janeane garofalo in film = big red flag

velko, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:31 (fifteen years ago) link

what is wrong with you people?

bell_labs, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:32 (fifteen years ago) link

also i've watched this movie on more dates, for some reason. including one with a girl who had a WHAS-themed party and still had a "camp firewood" sign in her living room.

Jordan, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:33 (fifteen years ago) link

Love this, and pretty much everyone involved other than Garafolo (but she's good here).

polyphonic, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:33 (fifteen years ago) link

I liked this movie when I was 18. I'm afraid to see it again now.

burt_stanton, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:47 (fifteen years ago) link

there is a strong likelihood that i have watched this movie more than any other movie. ever.

impudent harlot, Thursday, 10 July 2008 19:59 (fifteen years ago) link

a friend of mine went to an outdoor screening of this and ran into paul rudd and took many photos.

Steve Shasta, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:23 (fifteen years ago) link

Steve Shasta, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:23 (fifteen years ago) link

was this two nights ago at mccarren pool?

bell_labs, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:26 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah, i also went to that

impudent harlot, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:29 (fifteen years ago) link

butthurt in the most literal sense of the word afterwards :(

impudent harlot, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:29 (fifteen years ago) link

I was intrigued to see this by the above, but seeing the european poster I now really want to see it. Is that a bit of skylab falling from the sky?!

Ned Trifle II, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link

oops...

http://www.cinecultist.com/archives/wethotposter.jpg

Ned Trifle II, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link

yes that is a bit of skylab.

did you people that hate this movie enjoy "Anchorman?"

El Tomboto, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:55 (fifteen years ago) link

I was ambivalent toward both.

milo z, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:56 (fifteen years ago) link

Another poster - this one has skylab on it. So what's the deal with skylab falling on a summer camp and why isn't it mentioned in the first poster? Or would that spoil the ending? (seems unlikely).

Ned Trifle II, Thursday, 10 July 2008 20:59 (fifteen years ago) link

I didn't hate this movie but Anchorman is funnier. WHAS is just sorta shapeless, with the occasional funny bit/sketch popping up.

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:00 (fifteen years ago) link

just watch the movie for god's sake

Jordan, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:00 (fifteen years ago) link

honestly I would rather just watch Little Darlings or Meatballs or any of the other half-dozen movies this is purportedly parodying

x-post

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:01 (fifteen years ago) link

totally an O_O moment seeing det. elliot stabler humping a refrigerator

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:01 (fifteen years ago) link

the first time i saw this i fell asleep and thought it was on some bullshit but i watched it a few weeks ago while drinking beerz and i thought it was a really good time even if i wasn't doing borat/anchorman rofling or anything

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:02 (fifteen years ago) link

Meatballs is okay but it's also pretty sappy

Mr. Que, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:02 (fifteen years ago) link

anchorman isn't funny either, except for the 'whore island' line

akm, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:03 (fifteen years ago) link

meatballs aged slightly less well than natasha lyonne.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:04 (fifteen years ago) link

I really do not understand some of you people
anchorman completely blew btw except for tim robbins smoking a pipe in his afro wig dismembering people

El Tomboto, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:04 (fifteen years ago) link

milk was a bad choice

goole, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:12 (fifteen years ago) link

I dunno this just seemed like another one of those straight-to-comedy-central movies like the Hebrew Hammer or Waiting - a decent cast, a lazy to nonexistent script, the occasional funny joke and that's about it.

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:13 (fifteen years ago) link

fwiw i dont think shakey is totally offtm even tho i def like whas

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:14 (fifteen years ago) link

I think he's totally offtm.

polyphonic, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:21 (fifteen years ago) link

This movie is great. Comparing it to The Hebrew Hammer and Waiting is a terrible injustice.

sometimes i do not understand what exactly some of you want from your wacky comedy genre.

BLACK BEYONCE, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:22 (fifteen years ago) link

jokes

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:22 (fifteen years ago) link

wtf who wants comedies to have super tight three act plotting and elegant structures and all that

goole, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:22 (fifteen years ago) link

also CRISTOPHER MELONI IS A LAUGH RIOT esp due to watching this right after watching Oz

BLACK BEYONCE, Thursday, 10 July 2008 21:23 (fifteen years ago) link

Waiting is funnier than Anchorman or WHAS
