Damning with faint praise.  :P
Again.  :D
Pfft.

Even I, have my limits.  :)

I don't watch bad movies for fun.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Watched The Marvels today.  Wasn't really bad.  I enjoyed Ms Marvel, and that family is part ofwhat made this movie watchable.  Plot was thin and ripped off Spaceballs.
PDH!

Several episodes into Andor I have no complaints.  Noteworthy CGI cityscapes.

About actors sometimes speaking gibberish when they are supposed to speak foreign language in tv/movies:
Learning that "derka derka muhammad jihad" isn't really Arabic completely ruined Team America for me

That made my day. :P

You do actually. You find Eurotrip fun, if not funny. :contract::lol:

Eurotrip was good. The pinacle of American teen comedies.

Movie is ok. Has the best made for song though.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

There are some amazing teen comedies out there.

Superbad
American Pie
Porky's (never seen it so no idea if it stands up, but it was infamous in it's day)
Animal House
Breakfast Club

just off the top of my head.  Superbad and Animal House being particular favourites of mine.  Hell, I should watch Superbad again (I was in a fraternity, I've watched Animal House numerous times).

Porky's was meh.  It got a lot of notoriety for T&A.

And Animal House is not a teen movie.

Porky's - like I said I've never seen.

Animal House - yes set in college, but I think the definition of a "teen comedy" is that it's about young people finding their way in the world plus lots of sex and raunchy humour - so I think it very much qualifies.


I forgot Ferris Bueller's Day Off too.

Counselor, we're just going to have to disagree on Animal House.

In a Canadian courtroom you get called "Counsel", not "counsellor".  :nerd:

OK.  Hardly a hill I want to die on, even though I think I'm right.

Porky's was the top grossing Canadian-produced film, in the Canadian box office, for over twenty years.  Bon Cop, Bad Cop beat it out in 2006.  Porky's is still number 2 on the list.
