Crystal Skull is Godfather 3 at best.

It's a little bit better than G3.

Cate Blanchett as a hottie Sov > Andy Garcia as mounted cop hit man.

Barely.

Darth Wagtaros

Only good thing about that movie was that it outraged the stupid Russians.
PDH!

21 Jump Street. It was actually pretty funny.

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised.

Cabin in the Woods. I liked it, but it certainly could have been better.
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

OK then;  The Other Guys:  better or worse?

Eddie Teach

Both. The Other Guys had more memorable bits, but also more cringe-worthy moments.

OK, I will have to definitely check it out then, because I thought The Other Guys was the funniest shit since Tropic Thunder.

Didn't see that one. All I can say is 21 Jump Street actually had some funny lines and I wasn't expecting that.

Yeah-- The Other Guys was hilarious.  They just weirdly failed to tie it all up into a good movie.  I sorta think of it as a series of funny-as-balls skits.

Also I would say better than Get Him to the Greek, but not as good as Superbad.

How the Rock and Samuel L Jackson checked out was hilarious, but when they drove over the crime scene I thought I'd piss myself.

I liked the real gun -> wooden gun -> rape whistle demotion.  Also the whole "Gator" thing.  And what happened to his car and how they told him "it was trying to vote for Nader" :lol:

I was so pissed when that movie disappeared from Netflix.
