^ surprisingly so - the movie was just one of those epic boy meets girl, loses girl, goes after girl & . . . .but it was done very well, even if it borrowed from other cinematic features, one being 300 (where they also spoke english)

BOATS AND HOES!

I could not figure out what he was saying during the solo but I still laughed my *** off.

My favorite line:

"Barbara Walters, Oprah, your wife. You gotta **** one, kill one, and marry one, go!"

if you buy tropic thunder, get the two disc set. the second disc of special features has some great stuff.

I saw Step Brothers last night, my God that movie was dumb. I think going forward I'll pass on any movie with Will Ferrel as the lead actor.

I have an addendum to that, I am never watching another movie produced by Judd Apatow. They are awful. Every single one of them is just a bunch of fart jokes (or the equivalent low brow humor). Wait to shoot for the lowest common denominator Judd.

Edit:

Wait to shoot for the lowest common denominator.

watched Burn After Opening while wrapping christmas gifts last night, one of those weird Cohen brothers movies, has some funny parts, but overall its just kind of odd, one of those movies you watch like a trainwreck, just cant look away...

You beat me to the punch on this one. We specialize in the lowest common denominator at EB.com so if you're hanging around here then I can only assume that you enjoy the lowest common denominator.

I haven't seen this one yet. I really like all of the Cohen brothers stuff I've watched thus far so I think I'll probably like this one.

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

We don't watch movies, so I don't have much to contribute to this thread other than...

 

[mudpuppy]

^Same here, especially new movies.

I did watch a couple movies the other day, though. O Brother Where Art Thou, and One Night at McCool's. Both were ok.

I think that brings my total movies watched up to four this year.

I don't mind some of it, but when the whole freaking movie is fart jokes or characters hurling nonsensical childish insults at one another it gets old. I don't understand how you can make a movie out of that, let alone multiple movies.

The reason I hang around is because I enjoy communicating with other engineers. I enjoy encouraging people. I enjoy joking, as long as it doesn't get disgusting. There are some here I like and some I don't like, but I would never make the statement that we specialize in lowest common denominator. I'm not even sure how that would algebraically apply to a forum. If it was meant as an insult, I don't get it. I guess you and I don't have a common denominator.

Man alive, can't anyone make a joke around here. I give up. I'm just going to pack up my balls and go home. It wasn't meant as an insult nor to offend anyone. For the record, I am not the only one who comes up with juvenile jokes around here. While I do contribute, Dleg, DV, wilheldp_PE, and EM also add quite a bit of material, not to mention PE_ness and the dude.

Edit: I apologize for my disgusting humor and fart jokes.....again. I also left out Supe and he shared Pterodactyl **** today. He should be at the top of the list of offenders.

Like I said, maybe I just don't get it. If you didn't intend to insult anybody, then I misunderstood. My bad. No big deal. I guess we just have a disconnect.

 

[Chucktown PE]

Speaking of which, I just watched a great flick about Pterodactyls. I don't recall the title, however it was very educational.

I don't. Some people appreciate my humor, others don't. C'est la vie.

Chuck maybe some people object to you assuming that your views are shared by the entire board with statements like:

I don't. Some people appreciate my humor, others don't. C'est la vie.

Just throwing out there - I suspect that a cavalier attitude without any concerns (or tolerance) for fellow posters/participants is not in the list of How to Win Friends and Influence People.

Again, it was intended as a joke but clearly not taken as one. What I don't understand is why I always get it with both barrels when I make a simple observation about the sophmoric humor on this site (which I find hilarious) but the people posting Pteradactyl **** get no blame whatsoever (sorry to throw you under the bus Supe).

I don't think me or wilheldp_PE are cavalier or intolerant. I am not quite sure how we avoid offending people on this site. Again, people aren't offended by Pteradactyl **** but they are offended by jiggly ****s and dirty Christmas carols. How is one supposed to know what will offend and what will not. I pride myself on being an equal opportunity offender.

We watched the unrated Forgetting Sarah Marshall this weekend. A little slow at the begining. Definitely some good one liners in there, the Gag reel/deleted scenes had some good ones too. Too much full frontal male nudity for the hubby though, he left the room to go play WoW.

I have been wanting to catch this movie ... just hadn't found the time.

Interesting .. you say hubby left in mid-view; however, you have remained quiet as to your viewing of *ahem* nudity ...

You beat me to the punch on this one. We specialize in the lowest common denominator at EB.com so if you're hanging around here then I can only assume that you enjoy the lowest common denominator.

That's not quite fair ...

A few of us certainly have base humor - yours truly at the leading edge of the pack. I realize my humor doesn't appeal to the masses but it is my humor. Fortunately, I have other redeeming qualities that make up for my lack of taste in the humor department.

The reason I hang around is because I enjoy communicating with other engineers. I enjoy encouraging people.

+1 Mary ... I think it is the reason most of us really are here - we enjoy discussing matters with other engineers.

I enjoy joking, as long as it doesn't get disgusting. There are some here I like and some I don't like, but I would never make the statement that we specialize in lowest common denominator. I'm not even sure how that would algebraically apply to a forum.

I don't think algebra would apply - I am thinking differential calculus and throwing in some stochastic (statistical) fucntions might get you to the right place.

Man alive, can't anyone make a joke around here. I give up. I'm just going to pack up my balls and go home. It wasn't meant as an insult nor to offend anyone.

Heh .. thicker skin bro .. thicker skin ...

What about me ... I sent you a few links too!

I don't. Some people appreciate my humor, others don't. C'est la vie.

Likewise. Difference - I accept when people say .. whoa - back it off a tad. I realize my humor can be over the top and apologize accordingly.

Just throwing out there - I suspect that a cavalier attitude without any concerns (or tolerance) for fellow posters/participants is not in the list of How to Win Friends and Influence People.

That's probably a good point - especially if one has signaled

at some humor.

Dude, how many times do I have to apologize. I don't think anyone here is truly a lowest common denominator, if I did I wouldn't spend so much f*ing time on this board. I just can't quit you EB.com.

 

[Guest]

^^ No apologies ...
