Saw that twice
So I decided to get back into movie reviews with a chick flick triple header, 1 movie a night for 3 nights, both to challenge my stamina as well as to see what the hell these movies were about. One of my friends said that Valentines day was okay, luckily he’s broken up with his girl friend now so I think he will recant.
I started out with She’s Out Of My League because it looked like only a half chick flick, or at least one disguised as a gross out style comedy to get the dudes there with out too much of a fuss. Well, I don’t even know what to say, that’s pretty much exactly what it was, I mean even movies like Knocked Up have a certain chick flick component, but this one was essentially “what is the brother of the producer of Super Bad made a movie you could bring your girl friend to” And I’m sure that’s exactly how it was pitched, since any pitch longer than a twitter will require a break for another line of coke so that won’t work.
Anyway, by the time I looked over my notes I realized that A: I have nothing more to say about this movie and B: I can’t write a review that is just 20 un answerable questions. So I’m just going to post my notes, have fun with that.
She's Out of My League
Jay starts out with over played plea to girlfriend, "like a scientist", snort, 2 years off
Very typical low rent Judd Apatow friends everyone seems like a cheap Jonah Hill or even cheaper Nick Swardson
It appears to be a world where not getting a boner and acting like a retard pulls causes 8s to think about you non stop
She's best friends with heroin overdose chick from Breaking Bad, hope they follow the same plot line
Stupid fat friend talks about Aladdin, cause he's like a little kid
Big shocker, she knows more about hockey than Jay Burachel, it's of course an implied trait as neither of them seem to know anything about hockey
Why are sports scenes critical to romance movies directed towards guys? Is the chick into sports really the guy fantasy
If this movie was a home video and had not been written it would be pretty good
And she's a lawyer, because why not
Dressed like a waiter and then sees ex-boyfriend who's obviously a douche
Might have the crappiest we just went on a good date song ever
I want to see a movie about a confident, good looking guy get a girl that's totally in his league then they break up after 18 months for no particular reason
She's not retarded hot, I don't get the reactions from every guy in this movie, even if she were has any guy every stammered?
The dinner table seen has a very "we saw Ricky Bobby" flavor to it
How is this family upper middle class? The dad would be lucky to be a wallmart greeter
Why is it called the slap shot regatta, there's no boats involved at all? Also, Jay hits a wrister like an 11 year old girl
I know that Jay is the same age as me but he still looks too young to drink wine
The can't get off the coach due to boner move, another classic, is there a way to do a movie like this ironically, of course the dog crotch lick
It just came out was the joke, how could one of the 9 writers not get that right
Missed another come from joke and why is it that dog jizz licking ended their relationship, none of this makes any sense
And what the fuck is up with hard 10
I find oyster in my shorts to be way grosser than any of the really gross things I say, even piss clams
I can't figure out the time-line of this movie, it's as if baseball and hockey are both played in mid July, also this doesn't have special Iron City flavor that makes western Pennsylvania so special
Miss march ball shaving conversation is at least 5 times this funny, strange how that can be
The secret defect better be a dick, if this movie goes Crying Game on me it may be the best movie ever
NO one has ever had this fight, being awesome and good looking I'm pretty sure that's what chicks look for in guys, I've never had a funny safe guy beat me out
I've come to the conclusion that I relate much more to the douche bag ex-boyfriends ever more ass hole best friend in these kinds of movies, like I should be named Blane, Andrew McCarthy in Pretty in Pink is the closest I'll get and I still understand why he is friends with Spader
You have to learn to live up to yourself, you're a 10, that's the retarded moral
Still have a weird goth thing for the other chick, still would like her character better if she asphyxiated while on heroin
Stuck on the plane after the speech was a good move for sure, first clever thing in this shit box
Keep thinking of that Simpsons where they go to Bronson, Missouri: Hey ma, can get some ice cream; no dice
The crazy ex girl friend has a very 70s hot kinda of thing going, she should stick to period pieces, which by the way is my new candy idea for lesbians
It's nice to see a skinny girl with big boobs, the move away from that is a mistake
That's was shockingly forgettable, wonder how many movies like that come out every year and then just disappear?
Nothing but questions on this movie

Expendables The Movie So Manly it Already got your Sister Pregnant
The return to the classic 80s action movie comes back to the earth this Friday. This doesn’t have any of the crap that modern action movies have, including 3D, anyone names Shia, no one dying, letting bad guys live and other pussy gay marriage crap. Instead we get Stallone and Lundgren back together for the first time since Rocky IV to bring the pain Ronald Ray-Gun style. So put on your Ayatollah Asshola t-shirt, which has become strangely relevant again and head to the theatre with your boys and a couple 4-Locos (I think I’m still the only person that has never had these) and leave your girlfriend at home because this movie has been scientifically proven to machine gun down birth control and get her pregnant.
If you happen to not think this movie is kick ass enough, here are the character names that Sly came up with, you little whiny girl:
Cast
Sylvester Stallone ... Barney Ross
Jason Statham ... Lee Christmas
Jet Li ... Ying Yang
Dolph Lundgren ... Gunner Jensen
Eric Roberts ... James Munroe
Randy Couture ... Toll Road
Steve Austin ... Paine
David Zayas ... General Garza
Giselle ItiƩ ... Sandra
Charisma Carpenter ... Lacy
Gary Daniels ... The Brit
Terry Crews ... Hale Caesar
Mickey Rourke ... Tool
