How Stella Got Her Spooge Back

Remember back in the good ol’ nineties when the Farrelly Brothers were splattering their fluids all over the screen? Back when it was still pretty new and thrilling to see a dangling wang on screen or goo? And now, the funniest thing they’ve done lately is a fucking cell phone commercial about an animated hedgehog?

The Farrelly Brothers have signed Owen Wilson and Jason “The Floydster from 30 Rock” Sudekis to their newest project, a romantic comedy called Hall Pass. The idea is that Owen Wilson’s wife gives him a hall pass: a week where he’s permitted to commit whatever sexual dalliances he’d care to. If this was old school Farrelly comedy, this could be raunchier and crazier than The Hangover. But this looks like it might be new school, Fever Pitch/Shallow Hal Farrelly’s. Lame, sackless Farrelly humor is like Naked Gun without Leslie Nielsen — except everyone will learn some sappy lesson by the end.

Wilson’s a wild card when it comes to edge. I mean, if we see the Owen of Bottle Rocket and The Minus Man, the Owen that doesn’t hide behind a surfer drawl and aw shucks delivery, this could be pretty damn good.

But more importantly, does this seem feasible? Would you let your spouses go buck fucking wild for a week? If Fox News has taught me nothing it’s that Freedom is never Free.

You see, this right here is EXACTLY why we need more fucking Prisco in our lives.

Farrelly brothers with Owen Wilson, huh? I'm sure lines are starting to form already. Who's the female lead? Bridget Murphy?

...does this seem feasible? Would you let your spouses go buck fucking wild for a week?

Sure I would.

1) He would have to wear protection at all times, possibly in the form of full-body latex.
2) I would spend the same week also going buck-fucking wild (with the same latex requirements).

Heh.

That would have been funny, superasente, if you had said Brittany Murphy.

Here's how it will go: he'll get the card, be all excited, try to pick up women, fail, try some more, have a fight with his wife, pick someone up, then he won't go through with it, he'll give some speech to his wife and they'll be happily ever after. The End.

There. Where's my money?

I can see it now: 'We were on a BREAK!'

I've always felt that if a man really feels compelled to have sex with another woman then go do it and leave me the hell alone for the rest of my life.

Too harsh?

This is a pretty stupid premise for a movie. I feel like comedy writers are really starting to hate women for some reason. What the heck did we do? Oh, right, we remain completely unattainable to them while they watch the guys on Jersey Shore go home with a different girl every night. Yeah, I guess that'll do it.

I think it would be refreshing if, just once, a movie like this tried a realistic approach.

Man gets the card, goes to the bar, picks up a girl, has mind-blowing, brain-expelling marathon sex for a week, then gives the card back to his destroyed, emotional wreck of a wife.

"Oh wait, honey, you weren't serious? Was this a test or something? Oh, you were playing one of those mind-games where I was supposed to choose not having sex with other hot women. Ohhhh. Sorry, dear. I'll get it right next time."

Wife is left devastated by the infidelity she allowed her husband, and the marriage falls apart. Kids choose to live with their dad, who has developed a nasty rash on his member.

The end.

figgy, you forgot the scene where he finally gets to sleep with a woman, but instead has a long,heart-to-heart talk with her and she makes him realize how much he really loves his wife.

First of all, what kind of school did these guys go to where getting a hall pass meant you could have sex with whoever you wanted for a week? I want to go to that school. Second, dumb title. A hall pass is a pass that let's you walk around the halls of your school without getting in trouble by the hall monitor. Is the husband only allowed to have this "free" sex as long as it's in the hallway? I hope that's a working title. *throws hands up and storms off*

Fuck. I knew I had that wrong.

Posted by: superasente at January 7, 2010 1:26 PM

I have little to no interest in seeing this but I may have to simply because of the presence of one Jason Sudekis...he's so damn affable I can't help but love him. In a perfect world, John Krasinski would be his brother and they would tandem bike around my neighborhood offering their sexual services for the low low price of free.

Posted by: canaux at January 7, 2010 1:45 PM

The best thing Jason Sudekis has ever done is dance around in the background of the "What's Up With That?" skits on SNL. I'm not even joking, the dude just knocks it out of the park.

Posted by: Snath at January 7, 2010 1:49 PM

And by Jason Sudekis I of course mean Jason Sudeikis.

Or: "Man gets the card, goes to bar, and fails to pick up anything but the tab because it's not actually that easy to seduce a stranger."

Unless you're Prisco. Prisco can use his words to make anyone do anything he wants.

We should start a list of Brian Prisco Facts. Comment diversion, anyone?

Jelinas, I figured that if it's Owen Wilson, he's going to end up taking someone home. He'll use that charmingly broken nose to score (drugs).

Posted by: Snath at January 7, 2010 2:26 PM

You're right, Snath. Good point. First step to taking a more realistic approach: don't cast Owen Wilson.

Also, your paranthetical comment made me snort (with laughter, not blow).

Posted by: Jelinas at January 7, 2010 2:33 PM

It's not easy to seduce a stranger? Really? Since when?

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at January 7, 2010 3:42 PM

Not easy to seduce a stranger? Hmmm...Warren Beatty calls bullshit on that one. 12k my black ass!

Posted by: TheBlackMenace at January 7, 2010 3:53 PM

We can't all be a young studly college-boy Adonis, Optimus.

I like carbs too much.

/sad

Snath captured my thoughts exactly, right on down to the carbs.

*looks at the cookie on her desk with a sigh*

Maybe I'm just a dickhead, but I didn't think The Hangover was raunchy or crazy at all.

And in my day, hall passes weren't for having sex or wandering the halls. They were for having sex with the sleazy teacher in the storeroom.
