Fanboys

We watched Fanboys this weekend, expecting a very funny movie. What we got was a mildly funny movie whose jokes seemed to have been phoned tweeted emailed in by 10–year old geeks whose sense of humor hinges entirely around Star Wars, rather than jokes written by comedy writers who get the geeky fanboy thing. Even the mighty Seth Rogen—a man who only needs to stand there and look at somebody and he's hilarious—was painful to watch, and he even played 2 characters! The fat guy was way too Jack Black (only Jack Black should be Jack Black) and annoyingly loved to scream like that unfunny dead fucker with the stupid hair and stupid hat, um, Sam Kinison. The guy whose character was dumbly named "Windows" was pretty OK. He was also in Tropic Thunder and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. The blonde guy who played the son of the religious mom in Detroit Rock City was OK. At least supercute gorgeous hot spunky Kristen Bell was there to ease the pain. Ah, all better.
