Ted Kennedy can kill his girlfriend and he's the "Lion of the Senate". Reporters write articles explaining how the deceased would appreciate all the wonderful programs he enacted if she weren't, you know, dead.
But Donald Trump pays off a gal to keep quiet and that's an impeachable offense? Ironically, a Republican paying hush money to a girlfriend isn't a campaign violation--but the malicious prosecution as such is actually an illegal campaign donation to Democrats. The only ones making any illegal campaign contribution are the prosecutors themselves. Posted by: The Gipper Lives at December 10, 2018 08:07 PM (Ndje9) 13

Ferrell's funny in some movies. Stranger than Fiction he plays straight. The ice skating movie was funny, too. I'm probably one of the few who liked both Zoolander and the sequel.
But "Holmes and Watson" looks dreadful. Obvious jokes that fall flat. Jokes that are funny only because they're topical ("selfie" with an old-fashioned camera ... ha?). I'm a fan of vulgar humor, but it has to be well-done. The Brothers Grimsby was side-splitting. Spy is on my top 10 list. This is shite.

Ferrell could do the frustrated straight-man bit. He was a hoot in Celebrity Jeopardy on SNL.
He did okay with Anchorman... but there, he was working with an ensemble. Beyond that, the guy sucks. He's not a leader in a comedy. Hollywood has been trying to make him a leader in a comedy and every time, it has failed. Even Alan Covert has successfully pulled off a lead in a comedy. "Grandma's Boy". I suggest everyone here save the money and time they would spend on this new horseshit and go watch Grandma's Boy instead. You will thank me.

Instead it focuses almost entirely on the misery instead of the actual hopeful story it should be. It would be a truer title if it just said: 'The Holocaust.'

I saw the trailer for this a weeks ago but couldn't finish it. I don't hate Ferrell and think he's had some funny moments but his schtick does grow thin through an entire movie; big and loud does not always equal funny.
I like a more subtle comedic style, case in point, Jack Nicholson in As Good As it Gets is very funny. Probably helps that he's an asshole in real life but his dialogue was a great compliment to his mannerisms in the movie. Posted by: Pine Barrens at December 10, 2018 08:41 PM (oh+79) 221
I will concede that The Other Guys was okay. It benefited from a good overall script. Ferrell didn't add much but he didn't distract from it, either, for which I'll give him credit.
Posted by: boulder terlit hobo at December 10, 2018 08:38 PM (ykYG2) --- Pimp? Are you listening to my story? But Walberg was the real surprise in that story. And Steve Coogan was stellar--besides some legit deadpan by a comedy vet Michael Keaton (who got into comedy to act--which explains his early splash in comedy films eclipsed by his totally serious films, later on).

Posted by: Krebs v Carnot: Epic Battle of the Cycling Stars (TM) at December 10, 2018 09:05 PM (pNxlR) A movie that could not be made today because Willis, trying to get the guy's security clearance, hooks up with a gay dude and murders him. It was an odd film. Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop at December 10, 2018 09:09 PM (7ynIk) In a film full of bullshit, unbelievable scenes, the worst is the climax, where the temporarily paroled Irish terrorist runs up to the highly trained FBI HRT sniper and says "gimme your rifle". And the stupid Feeb HANDS OVER THE RIFLE WITHOUT A THOUGHT. Fuck. Plus, there was a missed opportunity for badassery when the former terrorist chick gone straight shoots Willis. Instead of getting all weepy and weak, they should have had her walk up, look down in contempt and say "what? did you think I'd forgotten HOW?" while he bleeds out from his sucking chest wound.

I was surprised how much I loved Ritchie's Holmes (with Robert Downey Jr.), because it first seemed like they were promoting as Holmes and Watson as a gay couple, when I first saw it.
--- OT: Just recently saw Crimes of Grindlewald. Impressions: Rowling needs to mature as a screen writer. Not as meh as the first totally-slack conflict-lite movie, and actually picks up interest in the story. (Could learn more from (personal fave) Kloves, who managed all sort of conflict in a film about lounge piano players). Negatives: confusing as hell. Things that could have been played for tension were held to the end. Positives: Jude Law--damn there's a fine actor. Posted by: Axeman at December 10, 2018 09:27 PM (UBkCC) 364

if you magically change the laws to make NDA's campaign contributions, then there's a whole can of worms.

Campaign contribution, becafuse you can't run if you starve to death. If Trump had bought people off in the past, or had a policy to, even when he was just a celebrity businessman, it's obvious that it didn't depend on his candidacy at all. But all this overlooks the simple point that Mueller is supposed to be looking at ROOOSHIN CULLOOSHIN! and has accomplished zip on that score.

Grindlewald continued: Depp was his median brilliant--but sort of locked into the role of the Seductive Villain or Villain Orator that Rowling, as a fledgling screenwriter didn't know how to break him out of. I'm most disappointed in David Yates, who I've always championed in the HP films, also not giving the Dynamic Depp a break-out scene. (The director is the *chief actor* of a production).
However, Law, as a Young Dumbledore was unarguably the chief figure of the film and the history that Rowling is trying to backfill. And, while I wondered throughout the HP series when Law was going to enter as a character, it seems that they may have reserved him as the most suitable actor to fill the role of a young Dumbledore. I don't really know what is going on with Yates, though. We saw an introduction of *performance* into HPs 5-7b. Thompson, Oldman, and Ricks--some of the best performers tasked in the HP series--got scenes that they could really create in (probably thanks to veteran indie Kloves). Perhaps he just feels to owing to Rowling, who is struggling as a film writer, IMO. Posted by: Axeman at December 10, 2018 09:46 PM (UBkCC) 414

The idea of a moronic Sherlock Holmes has been done before in the excellent, underrated 80s movie, Without a Clue. It featured Michael Caine as Holmes and Ben Kingsley as Watson.
The hook was that Holmes was created out of whole cloth by Watson, who was the actual deductive genius. Once his reading public clamored to see the actual Holmes, Watson hired an alcoholic actor (Caine) to play the part. It's a really funny movie and I can't imagine this abortion with Will Ferrell will top it in any way. Posted by: Lamont Cranston at December 10, 2018 09:59 PM (oK19E) 455

Been watching "The Marvelous Mrs. Maziel" on Amazon. It's a hoot.
Anyone else seen this? Posted by: Farmer at December 10, 2018 10:11 PM (yJ1e6) --- Too much slavish hagiography of Lenny Bruce, who first forwarded unfunny, rebellious, culture-rot-inducing liberalism in the name of comedy.

Posted by: Calm Mentor at December 10, 2018 10:27 PM (ffYR/) Mentor - you want to believe. Go on believing. That should be enough for you and those like you. We all know the names. But it ain't enough. We all know that too. Everybody else has to believe with you. That's what this shit is always - always - about. At the end of the day - you just can't stomach considering that things won't work out. And you can't stand anybody else thinking that way either. The thing about my position, though ? I'd just as soon everybody believe right along with you. Be more shit for me to pick over in the end. So please - ignore me. And tell your friends.

I blame Bruce for the liberal politics shit fest "comedy" has become.

Is it just me, or does this movie smell like the precursor to "Ow my balls" from the movie "Idiocracy"?

Posted by: Calm Mentor at December 10, 2018 10:42 PM (ffYR/) Mentor - the Fact that you think you're looking at Facts show's just how fucking far apart we are. There's no discussion here. You're convinced it all has to work out. That it's Just a Fact. I call that Faith. And Time will Tell. But when it does - don't move the Goal Posts. Just admit you were wrong. My bet - when they remove Trump - you'll just start saying how you were Wrong For the Right Reasons. Posted by: Jody Hamilton at December 10, 2018 10:46 PM (8Juj2) 474
I like some of his stuff, but the trailers for that movie are not funny in the least.

John Pinette was funny as hell, working mostly without profanity or politics. Gaffigan is one of the funniest guys out there, again no politics or much profanity. Seinfeld, perennial face-hurting comedian--no politics, little profanity, until near the end with light profanity--heck I've never shrunk at profanity--if you're funny.
I think John Mulaney is tremendously funny--and I just groan at his osmotic political stuff. It is funny, though, in a different sense. His first two specials were outstanding without political humor. And his last, he take shots at Trump, while becoming more mannered that he ever had been. It's like he's adopted the idea of what he should be like. He managed to be funny, but he's like Harrison Bergeron, taking on the weights of the crowd to not be as much of a standout.

If you would like me to admit I'm wrong, please post a link that shows when it has happened. Which one of us is operating on faith here?

Posted by: Pete at December 10, 2018 10:44 PM (Tlz/M) --- THat got a legit L.O.L. from me. Spent a lot of time working with some libs that I rather like, and overhearing their discussion of that movie. It's funny how they see the setup Judge puts to that movie and blame the reproductoid conservatives--but fail to see that most of the ills of society do not come from, say, "Papa farmer urgency" but cosmopolitan slackery. They actually described that movie as a "cautionary tale"! LOL. It's a social commentary--and too farcical to be what reality actually becomes.

Posted by: Calm Mentor at December 10, 2018 10:56 PM (ffYR/) Mentor - you want to discuss it. I'm perfectly content to let it all play out. Because I don't need reassurance or approval. And I don't need to waste my time. And I don't need to change any minds. At this point - I'm just watching and laughing. But I am willing to check in for the next little bit - just to get the last word. Are we Last Wording now ? Because I'll play Last Word for a while.

Meh; if they were dumping it, it wouldn't be released on Christmas Day.
Also, flood-the-zone advertising is a tell for a bad film, not the lack. Recall how the "Predator" remake got carpet-bombed into the public consciousness. In fact, the first time I ever noticed this phenomenon was with a different Will Ferrell cine-turd, "Land Of The Lost." Posted by: @irishmikecomedy at December 10, 2018 11:55 PM (KchIo) 490

Posted by: Jody Hamilton at December 10, 2018 11:22 PM (8Juj2) ------------ I'm well aware that you are petty, by the way that you responded to things I never said, and then drew inferences from that I never meant. You don't argue honestly, and when called on to provide backup for your arguments, you obfuscate rather than arguing. Posted by: Calm Mentor at December 11, 2018 12:22 AM (ffYR/) 492
Please, don't advocate for the destruction of John C. Reilly's career, who is a genuinely talented individual.
