Red State (2011)
I hate the characters.
If you could call this a horror film, why do the characters in horror films always have to be so incredibly stupid and/or spineless? I know that it is to further the plot and all, but it is really irritating and this movie is no exception. I'm only 50 minutes through when I felt the need to stop and write this. One of the kids who got kidnapped is pointing his gun at the whole WBC-parodied congregation. They have just shot and killed one of his friends and the other one is tied to a cross and is obviously about to be killed himself. So, this kid has his gun pointed at the congregation and could have easily mowed all of them down, possibly saved his friend and it would have given just about anyone a great feeling inside. Instead, he runs through the church, through a house with this automatic weapon in his hand and then outside, all while being chased by the males of the congregation. Then you think he's shot by his pursuers, but no, its the local sheriff, possibly the stupidest and most spineless character in the whole movie. And I know there can't always be a happy ending and I know the average IQ in the South is under 80 if they're given the answers to the questions, but, really, it just made me very angry. I'm still going to watch the rest of the movie because I want to see the crazy baptists get foiled and possibly killed, but let it be known that the characters in the movie are terrible and I can't say I would recommend this movie. Kevin Smith. Why?
A Complete History of My Sexual Failures (2008)
Like Chris Waitt, I don't know how to feel about this
I've known people like Chris...I mean, his personality, not his sex life. He's droll, witty occasionally, but has long bouts of silent staring, obviously in thought and you just want to say OUT WITH IT ALREADY, but I still like him because he's a weirdo like me. We like the same music, i.e. he used Beck's amazing 1st (or 2nd?) album songs and I like him just for that. Also, I imagine he'd be fun to take to a party because he'd be more socially awkward than me. He lives in a really messy environment like me and is a musician. However, he is not like me in the fact that he has dated a lot of women although I'm probably as attractive. He has insane guts to make a film like this while I probably never would. However, I have the ability to be witty, quick-minded and make people like me, while he just sits there and blankly stares all the time. Still, I think we could be friends because I don't think he's as big a narcissist as he makes out to be and we both take criticism fairly well...sometimes.
Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie (2012)
I'm guessing most of the bad reviews came from people who didn't like Stepbrothers
I saw like one positive review in the first 15 reviews but decided to give the movie a shot anyway, expecting something terrible. I mean, sure, I'm not the biggest fan of their TV show, I've probably watched more Dr. Steve Brule, which I think is better (yes, he has/had his own show). Either way, I was pleasantly surprised at how awesome this movie was. I mean, it definitely had that Tim & Eric extreme strangeness to it but I thought that since it kind of had an overall cohesiveness it made the humor much better. Like, the fact that there is a plot and all of this crazy stuff out of the blue, like, I thought it was hilarious when Tim systematically steals Jeff from his father Reggie, and then says, 'All right, Jeffrey, tell your Uncle Reggie goodbye' all within about two minutes of meeting them, I thought that was great. I mean, I could go on, but here's what needs to be said: There are a lot of comedies that come out of Hollywood and this one is funnier than most of them. But, hey, you know I'm a strange person and of course this kind of humor isn't for generic dummies whose main goal in life is to fit in.
The Life & Times of Tim (2008)
J.D. Seaton is a moron...
Hi, I signed up for IMDb just so I could point out what an idiot j.d. seaton is. Let's see, for starters I imagine him as some bloated half-wit who drinks ten energy drinks a day and doesn't ever shut up his overly loud and abrasive voice and when he tries to be funny he laughs at his own jokes really loud because of his extreme insecurity as someone who isn't considered funny by anyone except the broiest of bros.
With that said, the only thing wrong with The Life and Times of Tim is that there aren't literally thousands of episodes. That's not to say the episodes don't have replay value, but really I wish I could watch new Tim material all day every day. I try to be more like Tim in every aspect of my life and I wish I could be a character on the show.
