im going to have to reverse that with Macgruber. I thought that movie looked so fucking bad. The preview made it look like the least funny movie ever but it was actually pretty funny. I was pleasantly suprised

On the reversal, I thought The Wackness was gonna suck but it was actually a very funny movie.

this thread is weird so far. i didn't mind accepted, i don't know who would have thought killers is funny, i'll sort of agree with the macgruber comment because it got super funny from the sex scene on, i was pleasantly surprised with get him to the greek, it was way better than i was expecting, i'm not quite sure how someone didn't find the hangover to be at least a little hilarious, aaaaand ima have to go with be kind rewind. that movie looked like it would be so good and it SUCKED

When they started advertising it, I was like, "Fuck yes another Borat!!!" Then, it came out and I saw a penis that talked.

Considering how awesome Curb Your Enthusiasm is, I for sure thought Whatever Works with Larry David was going to be very funny. Netflix suggested close to 4 stars for me so I can lose, right? WRONG. This was easily the most god awful waste of a movie from 2009. Do not watch.

I thought Accepted was HILARIOUS.. The  'wiener' scene was lame. I agree. But the rest of the movie had me rollin'.

As far as movies that I thought were gonna be funny that sucked.. I'm gonna go with ALL the Adam Sandler drama films.

Funny People - I figured with Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen together you couldn't go wrong.. Movie was terrible.

Spanglish - I don't even remember anything from the movie.. besides that it sucked.

Punch-Drunk Love -

sad but true.

I got mixed feelings about that Grown Ups movie... part of me says with that many funny guys in a movie it's gotta be good. The other half has been let down by so many shitty adam sandler films.. makes me wonder
