Okay, yeah, so who else is super excited? I've watched the first one about fifteen times and I seriously don't think it can get any better than that. Hopefully, the second one will be just as good. |

QUOTE(heartquasm @ Apr 28 2008, 12:09 AM)  Yeah, Harold and Kumar was a little over the top, but I personally think that's what gives it appeal. The filmmakers might have thought they were going "over the top," but it's kind of hard to threaten the "status-quo" when you appeal to it so feverishly. I guess, I'm just not convinced that full-frontal nudity or scatological humor is "over the top," and, even if it is... the top must be pretty f**king shallow. Someone wrote that it resembled an extended "Carlos Mencia skit." I can't say I disagree (holy f**k, that guy is unfunny). See Female Trouble, Cecil B. Demented, or Pink Flamingos. That's sincere trash-cinema - hilarious, subversive, and all made by John Waters. It's not like I'm a high-brow, nose-in-the-air sort of guy - I'm not. I'm a no-brow activist, and a purveyor filth. But, that filth has to be something worthwhile - this isn't even anything new. It's just boring and unfunny, through and through. QUOTE(heartquasm @ Apr 28 2008, 12:09 AM) What the hell is that even supposed to mean? Have you ever seen the film Idiocracy? It's sort of like that. Just as you can't effectively satirized non-intelligence with a barrage of jokes that only appeal the morons, you cannot effectively critique America by having a target audience which represents half of what is wrong with America (the audience applauded when they saw female pubic hair). QUOTE(paperplane @ Apr 28 2008, 12:10 AM) Nate, did you like the first one? Yes. |

QUOTE(NoSex @ Apr 27 2008, 10:25 PM) the top must be pretty f**king shallow. Shallow as in superficial, or shallow as in not-deep-shallow? The latter wouldn't make any sense though... Hmmm.. Just wondering. I LOVE GRAPE SODA. Seriously, I don't understand how it's even a bad thing.

Seriously, I don't understand how it's even a bad thing. lol, that's why he was pouring it out, fool. it's just another black stereotype thing. it woulda been the same if he took a watermelon and slowly crushed it (since blacks + watermelon also stereotype). did you hear that guy in the background going "what about the kool aid?! i was serious 'bout the kool aid!!" lulz. |
