Whitewashed in '05 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I thought forgetting sarah marshall was terrible as a movie in general, which is how it should be rated. Yeah you can say watching it with the significant other makes is better, but the only reason I would say that is true is so I won't have to see something else that's worse.

She just told me "I know that book, its about the kid who imagines things". Thats funny that you say that though, because the film was redone after a test screening went bad and kids started screaming and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So depending on treatment, the movie could indeed be terrifying for kids. I hope that isn't the case - I saw a lot of people bring kids to Pan's Labrynth, thinking it was a children's story. Yow.

I might and even go as far and put it 2nd best ( behind the original). Know1ng...I haven't decided if it's the worst movie I have ever seen, or just really, really weird. Saw 5 sucked ass.

dasox24 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Just watched Slumdog Millionaire. Didn't really know much about it going in (other than a very basic premise), and I thought it was a very good movie. That main actress is hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get, at all, how anybody could possibly see anything good coming out of a new Stooges flick, especially one with a cast such as that. I mean, people had a problem back then when Curly was replaced, and they replaced him with the original guy! Now we have a new film, with people playing the parts of the real people, and this is a good idea!?! Crazy man...absolutely crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who gave a f*** about the Stooges when that replacement happened assuredly won't be the target audience here and is even more assuredly not even in the minds of the producers.

FlaSoxxJim Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Somebody help me out. Is the new Stooges film is going to be a documentary or just a straight-up comedy in which modern movie makers with no original ideas rape the bones of the original Stooges to make a buck? If it's the former, then ok, I guess there's a point to the film which may or may not end up being any good. If it's just a comedy remake ala' cinematic failures like the atrocious Little Rascals and Beverly Hillbillies remakes, then there is a 95% probability it will suck ass no mater who they cast.

Shemp was totally brilliant, and anybody who thinks of him as a lesser Stooge can pick two of these [holds up hand, gets ready to gives 'em a Two-fingered Moe to the eyeballs]. Now, Joe Besser and Curly Joe Derita, on the other hand. . . Those were some crappy Stooges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a new Stooges movie, not a biopic or documentary. Steve, I know it is 2009, not 1950. But even to this day people will say that Curly Joe is nothing compared to Curly or even Shemp. The idea of people playing the roles of real people who played characters is exceedingly odd and shows how bankrupt originality has become. Brain Donors was a thinnly veiled Marx Bros. clone, but at least nobody was named Groucho in the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite right. Joe Besser was quite an established and respected solo comic act before his short Stooge stint, but his wimpy persona ("Not so haaard!") and refusal to take the brunt of most physical slapstick kept him from ever meshing well at all with Moe and Larry. Besser also was known by kids of my generation addicted to Saturday morning Hanna-Barbara cartoon fare as the voice of Babu the Genie in the cartoon adaptation of I dream of Genie. More of the useless trivia clogging my brain. It's hard to say anything nice about Curly Joe. Trivia Time: There was actually a 7th official Stooge in the Three Stooges roster. Name him.
