You were there?!

Hey, did you think the *spoiler* Will Ferrell parts were actually funny, or didn't you get the sense that people were laughing just because it's Will Ferrell *spoiler* ? I was laughing, but none of his scenes were that hilarious until the funeral scene.

Anyways, the first half is well-done and hilarious (the gay emo kid and the racist grandmother steal the show), but then it hits a low point where there's virtually no laughs for twenty or so minutes.


Yeah, I was there. I'm not positive, but I think I may have seen you waiting in line. I was sitting in a group with my girlfriends, heh. Did you get up to go to the front lobby more than once? The person who I thought/assumed was you was doing that.

Yeah, the movie's better in the first half. My main complaint about the film was long periods of time where nothing funny happened.

Probably me, short and sun-burned. I walked up a lot - they had $2 full-sized The Honeymooners posters!

It felt like we (six of us) were the only teenagers in the theatre. You'd think there'd be more geeky teens printing out free online tickets than married seventy years old. Not the case.

I don't think the movie's as memorable as Anchorman or Old School (I'm only remembering a few lines - it might just be because The Wedding Crashers is more of a situational comedy), but the first half was very, very strong. I didn't think there were many breaks where laughter just left - we were cracking up consistently.

I think I'll be more leniant and give it a A- or B+. Although the ending makes sense and was solid, the feel-good direction it takes ends up killing it.

Now all you need to learn is how to be subtle. :thumbsup:

And also, to be perspicacious.

May I ask why you would watch a movie that you gave an F to Twice.
