"There is a scene in this film where a character is defecated on by several people at the same time, and I dunno … I didn't enjoy it." -Roger Ebert
Rewatching this yet again, I now recognize that this is one of the only movies of the decade to really acknowledge that our world is a dystopia. And it did so in the middle of the Obama era, when such ideas were not yet fashionable!
The only film that has ever come close to the same feeling that something like Freddy Got Fingered has. Completely normie proof. Irony as a necessary defense for the complete bleakness of modern life.
This is the weirdest shit Ive ever watched in my life. But its great and hilarious. Will Ferrell and John C Reilly have cameos. Will Forte too, who is fuckin funny as SHIT. You're either gonna think im cool for recommending this shit or that somethings wrong w me hahah
Quite simply the greatest film of all-time. Slightly superior to 2001: A Space Odyssey. There isn't a 6/5 star option so unfortunately I'm going to have to refrain from rating this one.
Oh.
Oh, good morning.
Hi. Hi. Hi.
I'm Chef Goldblum.
And right now I'll bet you're probably just getting comfortable in your own Schlaaang Super Seat. But maybe you're asking yourself,
"What the heck is this Schlaaang Super Seat exactly?"
Here's how the Schlaaang Super Seat works!
First, several needles are connected to a vein in your arm. Chemicals are then introduced to synchronize your emotions with the movie.
Next, air tubes are inserted into the nasal cavity to guide you into a natural breathing pattern. Exotic odors are released to match the excitement of the movie.
Finally, your legs are moved out of your line of sight and into our patented Schlaaang stirrups, to give you a viewing experience…
When I saw this in 2012 I thought it was funny, but was ambivalent, because I was troubled by what I perceived as a nihilistic streak. That was an overly simplistic analysis. I now think that this is a powerful moral vision.
"As Steven Spielberg, I approve of this movie, and let me say this is the greatest movie of all time."
The same way BAD BOYS II took the concept of 'cinema', stuck it in a flaming car and shot it with machine guns, Tim & Eric have taken film and dumped raw sewage all over it. I loved it of course, but to apply a rating would mean it exists in some quantifiable universe where things can be compared to one another. It would be easy to call these guys idiots, but just as easy to call them geniuses. Easy to call their humor juvenile, easy to call it an incredible and layered social commentary. God only knows what motivates them to cut back and forth between a man in a bathtub full of shit and one of the most awkward…
Imagining Roger Ebert actually having to sit down to watch this and giving it a half star rating after it was over.
