We'll see if my self-fulfilling prophecy rings true...<BR/><BR/>@ Elgringo - gracias. I'll see if I can't see more crappy movies to give you more Alicia. ;)<BR/><BR/>@ Piper - I like what you say about being forgiving. In the end, I will forgive Step Brothers somewhat because I was laughing nonstop for about a two-minute stretch towards the end. It allllmost made up for much of the unfunniness earlier, but not quite. <BR/><BR/>Ferrell could get away with doing these types of roles/films forever, if only he mixed in more of the more mature material every now and then. I'm not asking for friggin' Patch Adams or even Dead Poets, but something that doesn't require peepee/poopoo humor every now and then couldn't hurt. The man is capable of so much more, as his myriad SNL impressions showed (Trebek, Caray, and Neil Diamond come to mind).Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-44833759505739980452008-08-04T14:52:00.000-07:002008-08-04T14:52:00.000-07:00People want to laugh.

I get even more angry when people laugh out loud at it.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to take the audience from Be Kind/Rewind and throw them in a large fire because they were laughing at stuff that was idiotic. <BR/><BR/>Me, I can be vicious, but I can also be somewhat forgiving. If I can laugh out loud once or twice during a movie, I figure my time was well spent. I doubt I would have laughed those two times if I hadn't seen the movie. Take Scary Movie 2 for instance. Not a good movie. But James Wood on the can with flies on his face made me laugh hard. I mean, hard. The rest of the movie was a waste, but I got to see James Woods on the can trying to take a shit. That was worth it. <BR/><BR/>I'm kind of tired of Will Ferrel and this is from a guy that loves him. Will is trying to strike while the iron is hot but he's smoldering the iron.PIPERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054305230216613759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-16798501978718587852008-08-04T10:27:00.000-07:002008-08-04T10:27:00.000-07:00The best part about sub-par films is that I get to...The best part about sub-par films is that I get to log on here and see another picture of Alicia Silverstone.

I'll take Ricky Bobby as his best starring role (Stranger Than Fiction notwithstanding, as it's in a slightly different genre), though I find he's best in a short format. Blades of Glory was better than expected (granted, expectations were low) and I've yet to see Semi Pro.<BR/><BR/>@ Evan - good to hear I'm not the only one.
