Loud-mouth black people and pompous rich white guys? OH THE HILARITY!

[Quigles]

I recently got back from watching 1408, and one of the previews was for a movie called WHO'S YOUR CADDY?

I don't think I've ever seen a trailer that made me contemplate suicide more than this one. It's practically a parody it's so bad.

Worse yet, the pathetically stereotypical "culture clash for the sake of comedy" premise has been dragged into the ground and stomped on repeatedly, but for some reason they're still using it in about a dozen films every year.

The only thing more annoying is having old white women talking like they're from the ghetto (which wasn't shown in this trailer, but I can almost guarantee they'll have it in the actual film). It may have been funny in AIRPLANE! (since they actually did something clever with the gag), but it hasn't been since.

Seriously Hollywood, FUCKING STOP IT. I haven't even seen the film, and already my brain cells are dying.

[teenkiller]

Yeah I agree with this one. Films like The Man and the one with Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins are beyond obnoxious at this point. I don't find these films funny in the least anymore but Beverly Hills Cop was pretty damn good I must say. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[thedudeman69]

I also hate the remakes that install black people into white people roles like The Honeymooners 2006. God that was awful .

[Brando @$$ Fat]

You sir, are a racist. Anything less than ass-kissing flattery is racism.

Anywho, I agree and all but people who make this shit have the same defense each time. "OH, WE'RE NOT TRYING TO SUBMIT TO THE PC POLICE." Yeah right, you can't come up with an original premise so you take the shortcut by embracing meaningless stereotypes.

[Cronos]

that looks terrible.....and i got bored of this type of "comedy" a long time ago

[Monotreme]

Can somebody explain to me why Andy Milonakis is working somewhere where the public can actually see him? "Hey look, it's a freaky 40-year-old grown man who looks like a 13-year-old boy, let's PUT HIM IN A MOVIE." Jesus Christ, people.

This was something that bothered me as well. Michael Clarke Duncan as The Kingpin, Ving Rhames as Kojak (?), and now Sam Jackson has been announced to play Nick Fury in The Avengers. I mean they are all good actors but still. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

Quick tip:

If Andy Milonakis is anywhere near your movie, take the word COMEDY right the fuck off of it.

It's no longer a comedy.
Now it's just sad.

*Ahem

HOLLYWOOD HAS RUN OUT OF IDEAS!

The execs that they pay millions of dollars to come up with "fresh ideas" pump out crap like this, a new Jamie Kennedy flick, a TV show they can make into a movie OR a gory ass slasher flick.

They're going with what they THINK works.
They have little idea of what works anymore.

[teenkiller]

Geez, I must have been the only one who found the Andy Milonakis show pretty amusing. From what little I saw of it any way. I couldn't believe The Man Show Boy got his own show. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Quigles]

I gave the movie an even closer look at my movie blog, QuigSpot.com.

And just in case you aren't able to appreciate all of the clever jokes and subtle nuances from the trailer, here's a sampling of this movie's apparent genius...

Can somebody explain to me how in the HELL a movie like this gets made immediately, and a script like Brokeback Mountain is left gestating for almost a decade before a studio stands up and even dares to take a crack at it?

I seriously don't understand Hollywood. Seriously don't.

Apparently they aren't the same person.

I have never seen this guy or his show, but somehow ended up reading his Wikipedia Bio. Go figure....

[Tagia_Romero]

I agree with how idiotic this whole thing is, but let's face it, in the long run, nothing much can be done about it.

Then again, in a hundred years after this movie is released, nobody is really going to care because it will more than likely be very unforgettable. Thank heavens we have Christopher Nolan.

My god, that was horrible....thank god the beautiful Rachel Ward saved that trailer for me;)

Seriously though, are you fucking kidding me hollywood?!?!?!!? This is like the Pimp My Ride version of Caddyshack!

[teenkiller]

Oh dammit. I just caved in and watched the trailer. I was hoping that I would at least be able to laugh AT it but no such luck. Seriously. This just doesn't look funny in the least. Just an extremely cliched comedy. Probably the worst since Soul Plane... Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Z_oasis]

this trailer pissed me off so badly. i was about to puke when i saw it. my friends were laughing cuz they ACTUALLY WNAT TO SEE IT!!! i was so pissed cuz they said that i sat in the front to get away from that.. it just made me pissed.. the whole dorky white guy thing.. i swear to GODDD, its so fucking old. Its like on chapelle show whenumm...forgot that actors name...(plays negrodomos) he said, hollywood is so racially stupid i bet theres gonna be a movie called "the last negro" starring tom hanks.. Now thats comedy!!

[someguy]

Let's congratulate Quigles on discovering the wonders of Impact font.

Remember when Jeffrey Jones starred in at least semi-good movies?

But then again, that was before the kiddie porn. Pederast.

And I liked Michael Clarke Duncan as Kingpin...

The Kojak bit...not so much.

[sirdizzy]

dude but it has Jeffrey Jones in it the best fucking Villain ever from the 1980's, Howard the Duck, Ferris Bueler's Day Off, Beetlejuice

fucking Jeffrey Jones gives your movie class baby

I thought he was dead and here he is popping up in a new movie, you must show the love for Jeffrey fucking Jones

I get what you're saying, but Hollywood's mentality is that of the average kid. They greenlight shit like this because they THINK or maybe KNOW that it's going to appeal to the majority of Americans. You only can get so many 'smart execs' that will greenlight GOOD movies, the rest pretty much don't care for movies - they care for money. I think it's been established a long, long time ago.

[Backstabba]

I love how the synopsis on apple.com makes the movie sound smarter than it looks.

"A hilarious, fish-out-of-water comedy about superstar rap mogul, C-Note (Big Boi), who runs into fierce opposition when he tries to join the super stuffy Carolina Pines Golf & Country Club. Undeterred, C-Note gets the brilliant idea to buy the land adjacent to the golf club’s 17th hole, which he cleverly leverages to gain membership. C-Note’s crew wreaks havoc as they bring their larger-than-life style to the club. As the club’s hoighty-toighty leadership desperately tries to revoke C-Note’s membership, our hero realizes that his family’s honor - and secret record-breaking golf history - is at stake. As he takes on the fight of his life, C-Note pulls out all the stops to bring down the club’s backwards establishment and welcome them to the 21st century"

[Jerk Shapiro]

The truth hurts. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=65voOQro4OY)


The one about "The Driveway" should hit home for this thread.

[DaveyJoeG]

Okay okay, the movie is going to be terrible. But damnit, I still love Big Boi.

Why post a synopsis that the members of the film's core demographic won't be able to comprehend?

[IronMonkey]

I never liked Jimmy Kimmel - but when I found out he was the asshole responsible for foisting this fat fuck milinokis onto the airwaves as if this fat dork was funny, has made me dislike Kimmel even more.

I'dlove to beat the shit out out of this retard of a teenager. Cant wait for his inevitable downfall

[Le_Big_Mac]

From what I've seen of Andy Milonakis from The Man Show, he was actually pretty funny, or at least his pranks were. But, as history has proven, when you leave some people's careers in their own hands, they don't go far.

[teenkiller]

It might shock you to find out that he is actually 31. Oh and contrary to popular belief he is not the Man Show boy. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[jbar1026]

as a white guy i hate these tired ass white joke movies. one white joke or poking fun at a typical white sterotype is ok but a whole damn movie. it just is not funny and hollywood needs to lose an ass load of money on this so we can stop seeing them.

[RustyRazor]

To make back the money they spent on this abomination, I'm seeing it hit DVD and Blue Ray some time in September.

Then they'll be sending it out in the mail with a "all donations accepted" letter.

I haven't gotten this ill over a movie since "Soul Plane".

[franky4fingerz]

HAHAHA best thread ever. If this is what yall think about whos your caddy then what do ya think about dragon wars?

[RustyRazor]

I heard it debuted to a box office of $3 million dollars.

I hope everyone cashed their checks already.

Good job, Hollywood.
Good job.

Yeah. It just barely cracked the top ten. Garbage like this almost makes garbage like Chuck and Larry look good. Almost doesn't count though. Next week it will be back in the bowels of Rosie O' Donnell's anus, from whence it came. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

Considering it probably took like 5 bucks to make, I'm sure they will still end up with a decent profit all things considered.

and it belongs there, seriously one of the absolute worst films ever made

[isileth]

Another think I hate is when they try and be PC in stories taken from European Fairy Tales.
Such as a kid movie where the Grand Banshee was played by Whoopi Goldberg.
For those who don't know Irish Legeds, Banshees were spirits that heralded death with loud cries.
Now, I don't think that in Ireland black women weren't so common.
Or when in The Lord of the Rings somebody complained that there weren't blacks in the movie.
I don't see this so strange, since the books were based on legends of Northern Europe.
The next time they make a movie about African Legend, I want Dolph Lundegreen as main character.

[ChickFlick]

I agree...it's like doing a remake of Roots and casting all whites. Doesn't make sense to me, but heh, that's Hollywood

[Tweek]

Ugh! People suck, especially when it comes to this sort of thing. Complaining there are no black people in Lord of the Rings? I've not seen the movies and still I know why that's just dumb.:mad:

[ListersParanoia]

I can't wait for a "white" Shaft, it's gonna be great!
