boobshaw 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 I know there is an incessant amount of Will Ferrell hate here, but after watching the red band trailer to this movie, I can't help but be excited about it. This is the first R rated Ferrell comedy since Old School. It appears to actually have a semi-solid plot given the type of movie it is. You can't deny the buddy chemistry between Reilly and Ferrell. And some of the situations it appears they will find themselves in remind me of the old Spade/Farley days. In a summer with Pineapple Express, Get Smart and Tropic Thunder, it seems like people are overlooking this movie. Hell, its the first Ferrell movie I have truly gotten exited about since Anchorman. Red Band Trailer Of course, I will be absolutely pissed if this comes out and is truly just another bit of recycled mess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boobshaw 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 Damn. It just looked like a PG-13 movie to me from the trailers I completely forgot about it. Time to go punch my interns in the face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 I thought this would be an Owen Wilson/Ben Stiller flick. I'm sure they'll just rename it, Brothers-in-Law. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 I've loved John C. for a while now. He was great in Boogie Nights (yeah that was a while ago) and he was probably the best part of Talledega Nights. Oh and Walk Hard may be one of my favorite movies ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and Walk Hard may be one of my favorite movies ever. I'm torn on Walk Hard. One part of me loved it, and loves to quote some of its best scenes. The other side of me got really bored around half way through it. Maybe it was because I watched the extended cut, but the movie was funny at times, but just could barely hold my attention towards the end. I think it might have been the section where he was trying to create his masterpiece that just dragged on and killed the movie for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I watched the regular cut first and then the extended cut later. The extended cut really drags with the whole scene where he has his own show and he's married to Cheryl Teagues. It was a good thing that whole part ended up on the cutting room floor. In the regular cut he has his show and sings Walk Hard all goofy like, does the interview and then moves on. None of that extended mess with another wife and parties with 70's celebrities.

The Niggardly King 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 the only good part of the extended cut is more drugging and when he beats the shit out of some guy from Dallas while saying his name the whole time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
