"Wet Hot American Summer"

disreguard that, I misremembered the brand name of the chaise lounge wedding present

i know these things are inevitably disappointing, but i can't help it, i have hope and this makes me very happy:

David Wain has been delivering pretty consistently since WHAS, as have much of the original cast, so I have a degree of faith in this endeavor.

yeah the movie w/ Rudd, Poehler and Showalter was way better than I expected it to be

They Came Together is great. i'll see anything Wain does, for sure.

newsreaders pretty funny too

lol they put pierce after poehler alphabetically

i was kinda hoping P-Z would be totally out of order after that, which would be a wainish bit of random humor, but no

lol @ basketball shot

I am so excited for this show

same, not even Jon Hamm can dampen my enthusiasm.

Ah, so this is where all of the good ideas went during the last few seasons of Children's Hospital.

ha ha I just noticed the "kids" from the science nerd group are there

Looks like it will be funny as hell.

ha ha I just noticed the "kids" from the science nerd group are there

I must've missed them.

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

I went to a summer camp for music nerds, and it turns out one of my pals from camp worked on the music for this

xxpost Theres def a shot of the Cure Girl sitting on some steps with the main cast

how is this a good idea?

has there literally been one TV or movie property where "bring it back from oblivion" is anything but http://i.imgur.com/7WOj5.gif

Fury Road

Doctor Who

i haven't seen it but the new mad max got a lot of good reviews

The Colour Of Money?

xpost Fury Road is a movie that has the word 'Mad Max' in it, not like a hot Kickstarter campaign that resulted in 59-year-old Mel Gibson flopping around in the desert

at the very least i think it'll be novel watching these actors reprise these roles + a lot of them are currently involved in funny stuff so they know how to be funny

Toy Story 3

Drunken Master II

I didn't watch the any of the revamps of beloved comedy properties Community or Anchorman or Arrested Development or Dumb and Dumber but it's not exactly like I read any good things about them

Arrested Development S4 is great

still no interest in this meeting of modern noncomedy minds

yea whiney mostly otm like i am not into a new evil dead either no thanks

Don't watch it then Whiney, Jesus. Who gives a fuck.

i don't remember the original movie being funny. maybe I should rewatch it.

It's ok

im very excited for this personally

WHAS is funnier in your memories than it is when you actually watch it, it's true. But the memories are A+.

much like actual summer camp

or shitty '80s summercamp movies

Yup.

poison ivy feat. michael j fox & nancy mckeon is my personal lodestar for televised summer camp hijinks

Little Darlings is my shit

AD was decent, Community had some good eps, D&D was stupid in the first place and Anchorman was exactly what you expected and a bit more, I don't see why you'd show disdain for any of these given the source material except maybe AD

D&D was stupid in the first place

yeah that was the point idiot

D&D original movie was great. I thought the prequel was decent, in a movie-rental when you are sick home from school kind of way. Lots of rehashed jokes but they came across as these new actors being affectionate towards the original movie. The sequel was just rehashed jokes made new through mean spirited-ness. Just crass going through the motions with a dose of post-modern "we're out of ideas and we know it wink-wink" self-satisfaction.

Anchorman had a similarly mean-spirited sequel, like someone was hired to modernize the comedy and make it edgy for the inevitable "UNRATED Special Edition DVD".

Rewatching AD right now. It gets better the more I watch it, like the original series. I remember not liking it at all at first cos it focuses more on "oh i see how they did that, that's clever" humor and less LOL humor. At least the AD cast and writers tried to do something new with their second chance.

i remember so little about dumb and dumber that i am now questioning if i ever even saw it. maybe i just saw the entirety of the movie in 20 minute segments on tbs over the course of 10 years

v excited for this Netflix Content

I would have felt the same way considering Michael & Michael Have Issues and Wanderlust, which were both not bad but still kinda disappointing. However, They Came Together was really funny and is the first thing Wain & Showalter have written together since nearly 10 years ago. I'm hopeful that the process of collaborating on that movie sparked some momentum and is part of the reason why they decided to continue with a series.
