There are a bunch of very good jokes spread sporadically throughout the movie, but I’m generally with you. It’s mostly peak lol-random humor mashed up with a glut of 80s/90s video game references and a thin semblance of interest in some post-punk indie music styles that were already feeling kinda dated when it was…

I watched the whole thing but I agree.   Never understood its now cult appeal 

I was in my early 30s and I walked out and day “meh?!”,  which was the style at the time 

Big nope from me. I hated the main character even more than the actual villains of the story, hated his zero-chemistry ”love interest”, hated all of the pandering references.

All my friends loved it, but I think I made it 20 minutes before I turned it off. Nobody was actually saying or doing anything other than “video game/pop culture reference!”

The Michael Cera of it all makes it a non fun rewatch for me.

I would have gone with “The film that single-handedly justifies OSHA”, or as it was known in 1981, Roar!:

I do appreciate that depend on the medium in which they are being told.

Idk, they’re both all neck.

Nice tribute. Well played. Enjoy!  

Best In Show, which will be followed by Waiting For Guffman and A Mighty Wind tomorrow.

No, that’s merely disorderly blood.

Absolutely the hands-down favorite over here. “That’s a fast-looking dog” is one of my go-to’s for a personal pick-me-up. Always makes me laugh.

I couldn’t narrow it down to only five roles if I tried. The biggest miracle is even when if felt like Fred Willard was just playing “a Fred Willard type,” it was always fresh and unpredictable. After all of that output you never felt he was repeating himself or phoning it in.

There was an Improv game TV show that he appeared on called “Thank God You’re Here” where the actor would open a door and be immersed in a scene they’d have to improvise their way through, but they have no idea what’s on the other side of the door. Fred got dropped into a Robin Hood type scene and he said something…

I LOVED Frank on this show! He was affable and avuncular in a way that made you want to live next door to wherever he did!

Just a brilliant man. He should have won an Oscar for his work in Best in Show.

And to think that in some cultures, these animals are eaten.

James Corden really does need to release a version of the inflatable punch clown with his face on it because that’s what he’s become.
