Mike Myers has become a pathetic hack and Adam Sandler’s core base of fans is getting
older. They don’t head to the movies to check out stupid comedies the way they used to.
And for God’s sake, please stop casting Jessica Alba in anything. The girl is not and
never has been talented. And I know I’m gonna get hell for this but…Jack Black? Are
you f-ing kidding me????

I have.

I have.

I do think Hancock (and I have seen the trailer), like Speed Racer and Zohan, will make back its money for the studios and all, but will suck nonetheless. I do like Will Smith but think this is going to be a miss on his resume, and no, I don’t happen to like Adam Sandler much, but he’s not the reason Zohan is going to suck, it’s the whole idea….and Hollywood actually wonders why people aren’t going to the movies like they used to.

So you don’t like Adam Sanbdle or Will Smith, big deal, that doesn’t mean the movies will suck. The trailers look great so why not quit bitching and write something yourself?

1. Made of Honour – Modern-day romantic-comedies are neither romantic nor comedic. They are vacuous, generic, and cater to the lowest common denominator and have absolutely no artistic merit.

2. What Happens in Vegas – See #1.

3. The Love Guru – Rarely do comedies these days make me laugh, maybe because they feel like a weak SNL sketch stretched to breaking point.

4. You Don’t Mess with the Zohan – See #3.

5. Meet Dave – See #3. This one’s awfulness seems to be like a cross between Norbit and Pluto Nash.

6. The Accidental Husband – See #1.

7. Speed Racer – Maybe because I’m not 6 anymore. The movie looks bad anyway.

8. Wanted – Looks better than Lara Croft, which is not saying much. It’s an excuse for a couple of cool, if fake-looking, action sequences.

9. The Happening – Everything MNS has done after The Sixth Sense has been either weak or just plain awful. Trailer didn’t intrigue me one bit even though its purpose was to intrigue.

10. Hancock

11. Journey to the Center of the Earth

12. Step Brothers – See #3. I watched 40-Year Old Virgin on TV and was bored by it and giggled maybe twice, and I refuse to see Knocked Up, and I never got on the Apatow band wagon.

13. Pineapple Express – See #12.

14. The Mummy 3 – Mummy 1 was mediocre, Mummy 2 was plain awful, Rob Cohen made XXX, Fast & Furious, Daylight, Stealth, and Sommers’ movies are all crap.

15. Babylon AD

The first 6 on this list are my worst.

And the amount of biting political/social commentary you mention? That may be one of the few things that was retained almost verbatim from the graphic novel, even though it had to be retrofitted to the current post-9/11 landscape in order to make it relevant to now, and one of the few things I actually liked about the movie per se.
