Dumb & Dumber 2

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Filming now.

This slipped under the radar. Last I heard it was shelved.

I can't imagine Jeff Daniels has anything holding up his schedule. Jim Carrey, Kick Ass 2 aside, has been pretty quiet nowadays.

Fuck your Carolinian ass. The first one was entertaining.

I don't understand how Jeff Daniels can be so brilliant on The Newsroom and still make this dreck at the same time.

A couple of minor chuckles, mostly sad attempts to make you laugh with the same punchlines, and overall a terrible film.

I've heard there's a third coming and they know this one sucked, so...maybe they'll put more effort into it?

I can't think of one film franchise that supports your hope.

Here you are. That's an old-ass phone your equally old-ass self can use to call a proctologist to remove the enormous stick from your old ass.

I can understand the grief this film got from the critics because they're boring, Academy blowjob jockeys whose pretentiousness is only outstripped by Yelp power-reviewers. I can't understand the grief this film got from the general public. I enjoyed it. Why? Because I knew exactly what the fuck to expect. I switched my brain back to "14-year old" mode and was entertained. Had at least five or six times that got me.

Also, Kathleen Turner could have a supporting role as Godzilla's mom in the next movie. Holy fuck. If you thought Barry Bonds's neck got big...

The first one was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I can only imagine this being worse.

Two proctologists for you. It appears the stick up your ass has a stick up its own ass.

If I have a stick up my ass, you have an entire forest up yours.

This is legitimately the most positive review you've ever written about anything.

Were you high while watching this movie?

Not as much as you'd think; it's losing its charm. Back to the wood (not G's) up your ass: were you expecting satire written by Shakespeare? This wasn't any worse than the first one, which to this day beats the fuck out of virtually any comedy I can think of in the last two decades.

You have this weird condition where you mistake not negative for positive. They aren't the same. The movie was absolutely brainless but it was funny in its own box.

That's how I felt about Water Boy. But the original of this series was just garbage.

Bah, I still use "both of them" and "Samsonite" a few times per year. Along with, "That John Denver's full of shit."
