Oh, look. Another mid-life crisis comedy from John Travolta.
Sigh.
Is this a subgenre yet?
Fuck me. On a steel table. In the ear. With a refrigerator.
At least Justin Long looks funny. And Matt Dillon. And Seth Green, sort of. Everything else in the movie you can stick in that refrigerator before you fuck me in the ear with it.
Y'know, seeing Travolta get eaten by penguins just might save this movie.
Otherwise, ouch.

As if Revolta wasn't enough, looks like Robin Williams is doing his "earnest" shtick.
/Colossal pile of shit

$50 Million opening weekend. Count on it.

Sorry, but despite my deep, abiding love (obsession) with Seth Green and Justin Long, I just cannot see a film with both John Travolta and Robin Williams in comedy mode.
It's like finding a pube on top of your chili dog. The whole thing is just ruined.

Wow, Hollywood isn't even pretending to try anymore. I didn't watch this trailer, and, I mean, I never saw the first movie but I figured they would at least, you know, keep going with the biker thing for the sequel, right? Wouldn't that be a lit more, you know, linear?
Wasn't Tim Allen in the first one? What, did Robin Williams eat him? Or did they have a coke fight?
What about the token old black guy?
I just don't UNDERSTAND movies anymore.

"I just don't UNDERSTAND movies anymore. "
Works out nicely, because they sure as hell don't understand us.

Didn't you see? It said Bernie Mac in the credits! Dead old black guy!
hard to believe how bad that looks.

Ok...I actually laughed a few times during the trailer. Seth Green was cracking me up...and Justin Long being really manly, although the voice was straight from his gay porn star in Zack and Miri, sealed it for me. A future download.
Why couldn't Robin Williams have had the decency to continue doing cocaine? He was funnier and he'd be dead by now.

Thanks to Paul Blart and all the $$$ he made, you're gonna see a lot more family films of this shitty ilk. Brace yourselves.
(I did laugh at the Seth Green's bit at the end)

I dug it until the gorilla showed up.

But it's from the director of Wild Hogs! The classic American film of four older men who become bikers and save a town from...other bikers...or something...
fuck, what a bad movie.

It's like Vaudeville! But louder! And in color!

"From the Director of Wild Hogs"
Exchange that refrigerator for a deep-freeze.

If I ever hear anyone say again that Pulp Fiction deserved the best picture Oscar, I will strap them down, and force them to watch Battlefield Earth on a loop to give them some perspective.
Not to bring everyone down further but I'm pretty sure that's Dax Shepard and not Justin Long. IMDb isn't listing him in this craptastic piece of work. Unless it's an uncredited cameo, I'm guessing that refrigerator just became industrial sized.

Try a meat locker.
Still not big enough?

What is with Seth Green's eyebrows??? He's obviously spending too much time playing with Travolta's make-up bag.
Posted by: Drea at June 11, 2009 11:16 PM
I'll watch it just for Seth Green and the gorilla.

@ drake-that is singlehandedly the funniest thing i've read all day.
i can't abide revolta or 'the old woman'--justin long did crack me up with that line tho. love amtt dillon too, but won't darken my doorway with this.

Middle age? How old are the "old dogs" in this movie supposed to be? In their 40's?
I have a friend who is 39 (as am I) and is constantly talking about how she's going to do X when she gets to middle-age, or she's NOT going to do Y when she's middle-aged. I finally asked her what she thought middle age was. She didn't know but apparently she's not there yet.
Math is not my strong suit, but I do know two things:
1. 39 x 2 = 78, well into senior citizenship
2. John Travolta and Robin Williams are way the fuck older than me.
Make what you will of this post. I don't know what I'm saying, but it makes sense to me.

heehee, BillowingBackpacks, heehee.
(I also am ashamed to have laughed at the gorilla and seth green. And if there's one thing I HATE, it's performing gorillas.)

Ok geniuses.... this isn't a sequel to Wild Hogs!!!! Not even gonna comment on the rest... but thought you should at least know that since you couldn't figure it out on your own.....
