Title: Pineapple Express - funniest movie I\'ve seen this year.
Post by: GmanJoe on August 18, 2008, 04:04:03 AM
Brilliant! It\'s stupid funny! It\'s about a marijuana dealer and a buyer who end up being tracked down by their psychotic supplier!
The dialogue was interesting. The slap stick had me crackin up. It\'s like Cheech and Chong but funnier. :)
No romance was shoe horned into the script. Thank you.

The monkey is out of the bottle man. Pineapple Express rocked.
Took the gf to see it after about 10 min she turned to me and said \'I thought this movie was about a restaurant\'. She loved it tho.
*Minor Spoilers* The opening scene with Bill Hader is hillarious, the random \'Fuck you!\' after the long pause had me rolling, and the army guy who came into his room to light his doobie in scuba gear was awesome. Also loved when Redd shot the black guy\'s foot off after he was already dead. *End Spoilers*
Very hillarious movie, always thought James Franco was kind of a nancy but I had only seen him in Spiderman and that dumb navy seal movie he made. I first started to think he was funny when I saw the skit of him getting fired from knocked up and this movie he manages to be even more hillarious than Seth Rogen which is very hard to do imo.
Also Amber Heard is smoking hot.. (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fz.about.com%2Fd%2Fmovies%2F1%2F0%2Fb%2Fk%2F7%2Fnocn11b.jpg&hash=dcca4caa2b911f9d36e9adb09b78a3531aa4b2ce)

I saw this a few weeks ago at an early screening and remember laughing quite a bit. My girlfriend usually hates drug references but this movie managed to make her laugh anyway. It\'s pretty well written and sometimes gets an unexpected laugh when it goes for slapstick instead of taking itself too seriously.

went with a couple buddies and saw it last week... very funny. I was sort of surprised by how gory it got there towards the end... and loved every second of it.
I loved almost all the scenes with Redd, that dude is funny.

Didn\'t find Pineapple Express all that funny, to be honest. I won\'t ever bother watching it again, for sure.
Tropic Thunder on the other hand had excellent performances all around.

Tropic Thunder was excellent all around... until the end when Tom Cruise started dancing. Such a pointless scene. It was just there so people could say "look honey, that Tom Cruise dances just like normal people". If they wanted to shock people they should\'ve ended it with Tom Cruise\' character just whipping it out and starting to beat it. Now that would\'ve been a fucked up ending.
I am excited about Pineapple Express though, not sure about that guy from Spiderman though.

Tropic Thunder was pretty good.
Maybe the 3rd or 4th best film I\'ve seen in a theater this year.

heard so much about Tom Cruise and his cameo.
I didn\'t think the cameo was that hillarious as everyone has been saying. Is making fun of how lame white people dance still funny? yawn
however Robert Downey Jr is christ like

Robert Downey Jr is fucking amazing.
As for Tom Cruise, had the cameo not been hyped, I guarantee you would of enjoyed it more. Then again, I enjoyed Cruises role. I mean, sure it was simple, but it\'s the best role Cruise has done since uhm, ....uhm, Born on the 4th of July?

I think your exactly right, if it had not been hyped to hell and back about how funny it is I would have enjoyed it more.

I can honestly say that I found Pineapple Express to be both boring and predictable. The girlfriend loved it tho\'. I most certainly will not bother watching it again.

if I could stand Ben Stiller for more than 30 seconds I would give the Thunder a chance...I find him terribly unfunny.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on August 26, 2008, 10:10:53 AM
Ben Stiller was the weakest link of Tropic Thunder.
And, I suppose so Eik. I know I ended up just e-mailing, checking texts and playing Tetris on the iPhone during Pineapple Express. The best part of that movie? When it went off and I got to go piss. Yes, I had more fun pissing.

I hate when the person in front of me has their bright ass phone on blinding me as they text while I\'m trying to watch the movie. That\'s always fun.
Title: Pineapple Express - funniest movie I\'ve seen this year.
Post by: Living-In-Clip on August 26, 2008, 07:12:46 PM
1) I was in the very back row.
2) There as three people in the theater. Two of which was me the and the girlfriend.
3) The third person was all the way in the front.
4) I normally never look at my phone during the movie, but fuck, the movie sucked and I had to pass time.
5) The iPhone screen has an automatic dim, so that it can dim the screen for dark places like a theater.

I\'m a sinner. I refer to her as the wife sometimes. Sometimes as the girlfriend. Sometimes as my fiance . It all depends on the mood I\'m in when I post.
Not married. I am engaged, but we\'ve been engaged three years now.
And who is to say I don\'t have a fiance and a girlfriend? EH? EH?!?EH????????/

When\'s the official date? You don\'t have to get married right away. No point in rushing things when you have a lifetime of commitment.
I thought you were married too, though. I guess I just assumed, since you have kids and all. :) But that\'s cool.
Title: Pineapple Express - funniest movie I\'ve seen this year.
Post by: Living-In-Clip on September 04, 2008, 06:58:17 PM
There is no date. I imagine we will never get married. I use to want to, but she didn\'t. Now it is the other way around. I really see no point in being married. We\'ve been together four years, have kids - why marry? It\'s just a piece of paper saying that we can legally fuck and then she can legally take me for everything I own.

Oh yeah... I just thought I should add... that when you live with someone long enough, the government deems you legally married. So if you stay together, whether you have a ceremony or not, you will eventually be legally married to each other. Weird law, but something to think about.
Title: Pineapple Express - funniest movie I\'ve seen this year.
Post by: Living-In-Clip on September 05, 2008, 06:01:49 AM
That\'s true. That is just yet another reason not to waste money on a wedding. If the Government and everyone else thinks we are already married - why pay for a wedding?
Then there is the whole wedding debate. She wants a church and a preacher. I am not religious and I want nowhere near a church or preacher. I want to go to a court house and get it done.
Until we meet in the middle, it ain\'t happening.

Not in all states. My wife and I actually looked into this wondering if we needed to legally do anything. In Illinois it doesn\'t exist.

Raises hand slowly....that\'s what me & the wifey did(court house)....we wanted a big wedding, but we\'ve seen newlyweds struggle with the huge bills that had mounted after the wedding and realized we didn\'t need that unnecessary stress...part of the reason in having those big weddings, is that you\'re banking on alot of the hosts to give the newly married couple money to help curb the costs, but if you have a bunch of broke-ass friends and relatives, that ass is up the creek.
Sometimes i know the father of the bride is supposed to pay for the wedding, but lately i haven\'t heard of anybody doin\' that,....i always here of the couple themselves payin\' for everything....so LIC if you guys do finally decide one day, go the court house route,..you\'ll save alot of money...

The way I figure it is, you don\'t go to a church to get a divorce, so why go to one to get married.

I personally hate church weddings. That\'s so cliche and lame. It should be something original at least if you DO have a ceremony. Church weddings are stuffy and boring and you end up choking on the perfumes and colognes that drown your sense of smell by all your relatives that don\'t know how to gauge the proper amount to wear and have to sit inches from you in the incredibly uncomfortable seats.

We had a garden wedding. Being Catholic, we couldn\'t get a priest to go coz it has to be in a church. So....we got a married priest to do our wedding. He\'s an ex-priest who does civil marriages. He had the cloth of the church thing on so it looked legit. :D
We had the most beautiful wedding! Now I gotta get married in Church (the quick version) so the Vatican knows we\'re married to each other.
