    Thumbs up Talledega Nights

    Talledega NightsJust saw it. FKNA funny. And by funny I mean Caddyshack funny. I barely stopped laughing the entire movie. Will Ferrel is the second funniest SNL alum after Bill Murray.

    It was pretty good. Lots of good laughs, but it just wasn't old school great.

    Saw it yesterday as well. Pretty funny. I'd see it again.

    I just want what everybody wants - to retire to Stockholm and invent currency to be used by cats and dogs.


    Or something like that.

    You gotta love NPR and Fresh Air. John C. Reilly was interviewed tonight, and all I heard was his thoughts on doing Streetcar on Broadway in two different roles for, like, 15 minutes, and the only mention of this movie was in the lead ins and exits to a break. I should send them more money.

    Hey, I just went to the web site, and there seems to be a black fellow in the cast, who, I'm assuming, is a team manager or something like that? Whoa, we are not talking about NASCAR reality if that's the case.

    They had guys kissing in the movie too. They were trying to piss off the NASCAR crowd, I think.

    good stuff, hilarious movie, can't wait to get all the quotables down. kind of a wierd bizarre off-the-wall flick, but perfect for that.

    Probably the best movie I've seen this summer, which really isnt saying much, but the fact that I actually went to see it IS saying something.

    "...their previous driver, Terry Skiavo...."


    The subtleties were awesome. As good as Anchorman or Old School? Definitely not. But well worth my $6.

    What was killing me the entire movie was that I KNEW him from somewhere and couldn't place it.

    I like to picture Jesus wearing a tuxedo t-shirt, so he's formal, but he still wants to party!

    I was literally in tears with laughter during the part with the cougar in the back of the car. I don't know why.

    I just got back from this movie, and I was laughing the whole way home and I didn't know why, and then I read this quote and lost it laughing again. Awesome movie.

    Yep, seen this before. Crazy liquor & cheeseburger party got out of control.

    Just saw it this weekend. Incredibly awesome. Need to see it again for sure. I was laughing way to hard to remember all the good quotes. The Jesus bit was priceless - I'm sure they could have went another 5 minutes with that part.

    can't wait to see it - from what I have read, this is a "blue state take on a red state sport/lifestyle" - meaning theu take the piss out of nascar nation and dumb-ass american "values" - will be interesting if this stalls at the box office when the vast majority of people that pay $$ to see his movies realize he is making fun of them and everything they hold sacred.

    I like to think of Jesus as an Ice Dancer, dressed in an all-white jumpsuit, and doing an interpretive dance of my life.

    I like to think of Jesus as a mischievous badger.

    I wanna thank little baby Jesus, who's sittin' in his crib watchin the Baby Einstein videos, learnin' 'bout shapes and colors.

    Dear 8 pounds 6 ounces baby Jesus, new born, not even spoken a word yet.
