Reel Geezers- Forgetting Sarah Marshall (warning: spoilers)

[TheObknox]

she needs to cash in her pension and buy a sense of humour. Perhaps two.

[GonzosTwinbro]

Stupid old cunts

[gnarlybirdman]

@GonzosTwinbro You're trash mate cheers

[GonzosTwinbro]

@gnarlybirdman  Thanks mookster

[GonzosTwinbro]

@gnarlybirdman you sssslllllaaaaaaggggg!!!!!!!!!!­

[hardlystopping]

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is one of my favorite movies. As a woman I appreciate a film where the guy is devastated by a break up, not a woman crying for months and finding new love. Haha and the women we're both strong and clever. I love it.

[Willyboslythethird]

hahaha yayyyy!

[uncannysama]

how gives a rats ass about what these dinosaurs' opinion anyway

[NellBrent]

I loved Sarah Marshall, but I do agree there are too many comedies like there where the rather "sloppy guy" (being Segel!! I don't understand why anyone would see Brand that way, he's a very handsome man) gets the perfect girl... whereas media with less-than-perfect women getting the great guy are often soaked in pitty or fairytale-unrealistic cliches.

[MrMoneyclips]

Judd Apatow does it for me. He's simple, he makes jokes that you dont need a setup for, and each movie he does takes the average guy seriously.

He's no Hitchcock, but he's getting there.

[eichenblattma]

you two have a dialogue that is more priceless than any apatow movies, an i love judd apatow

[paulaitchison]

You two are comedy gold

[cracka629]

male nudity = hilarious

russell brand's character, hilarious

kristen bell is beautiful

mila kunis, i am in love with her character. i loved this movie.

[zenonisblack]

i too am in love with her character.........

[epstone1]

I'm with Marcia. Terrible movie. The British rock star is great though.

[MehTube]

Lorenza's opinion is better, but overall great video. 5/5

[whymeee]

how can a opinion be better?

[mariahkraft]

marica i think may have been missing the point, it doesnt matter if the girls are good characters the movie isnt about the girls, the movie is about the guy, and what happens to him after the breakup, the women are just crutches

[hhkhkhkhhkh]

FSM is awesome.

[DigitalTransfer]

I love the reviews. Dont agree with this one. I thought the women were very fleshed out Jason Segel is a man. Most men write from the male perspective. All the characters are real, Sarah Marshall isnt evil she's real, same with Peter. He pushed her away. Everyone is essentially a good person who makes bad choices. I liked it.

[LipMytights]

Why are directors/writers with faces like Mr. Potatohead casting themselves opposite beautiful women? Zach Braff, the pudgy schlub who wrote 'Knocked Up'....

[smartkitmj]

Too late. This the year I hit you with something. LOL. I totally agreed with her review.

[1hitwonderthemusical]

I enjoy your reviews. Gives an older, more mature perspective on movies.

[coreya7x67]

I'm a 21 year old male, and I love good witty dialogue in a film, it's what keeps me interested, there doesn't have to be sex on the screen to keep younger people in the seats, not all of us are as immature as marcia seems to think, and can enjoy a film simply for the witty dialogue and awkward situations. I agree with Lorenzo's point of view 100%.

[daratheexplara]

I want to see sex and dialogue. Mostly sex though. :)

Just kiddin'.

[cutelyenigmatik]

I don't see how a male director and writer can effectively make a movie from a female perspective. It's an unfair expectation to have considering that all the movies from the Apatow camp has been from a male perspective, which I find interesting because it shows the vulnerability and feelings of guys for a change.

[ndimondi]

"this is the year that I hit you with something" love it.

[Roxie21]

I am looking forward to MORE of that! For sure!

[ionamacedo]

Those of us out in the other side of the Atlantic will certainly never see the film, as it is unlikely to be released. However, it des not seem we will miss much. Regarding films about a woman's point of view, I think Tamara Jenkins would have a lot to say about putting together her Slums of Beverly Hills, a 1995 film which did, I think, remakably and universally, address a young woman's insecurities about making her strides into adulthood, to mention one woman;'s point of view

[Roxie21]

I love that movie!

I am really not liking how the man here is being completely overbearing to the woman! He's talking over her and he's talking down to her and he's dismissing all of her criticisms b/c he doesn't like them! As if they're not worth merit. It's very frustrating!

[TheGanner11]

always have the story told*

[TheGanner11]

I don't understand why she's complaining about female perspective. Romantic comedies are always have the story told from a female perspective. Why not have one from a man's perspective? It's a refreshing change.

[Guy2Tex]

so you feel relationships are based on sex?

[dex2345]

"that really is an unfair sentence and I resent that..."

what a polished and genteel way to express yourself! a real lady!

[acm4bass]

I think Lorenzo has it right here. Movies like knocked up, superbad, and now this are about and for a generation that is failing to launch. Its humor about awkwardness, base humor and enelegant situations....was woody allen much diffrent? I think there are many strong female characters in movies today in Avaitor, Serenity, ..oh well off point. Anyway, This is a funny movie, not citizen kane. Thanks for the review. Can you review some less recent movies like Jaws, Alien, and.fightclub

[Aleister77newaccount]

it is not that the generation is failing to launch (a ridiculous term), it is that society's organizational structure has changed. people just can't go off and raise a faimly and buy a home and bring in a large income. to tag people with the word 'failure' shifts the blame onto individuals. if this perceived failure is occurring en masse, it shows it is social organization that is at fault.

[rjshmo]

Judd Apatow is a dudd. Most of his movies are really poor.

[Big333223]

Judd Apatow makes great comedies, but Sarah Marshall was disappointing. I'm with Marsha on this one.

Great review from the dynamic duo!

[TracyInsomiac]

Wow, The comments on these vids are a joy to read. A rarity in Youtube.

[magic585]

Kill Bill is a movie like that

[bw123]

I love you two. Please keep on doing what you're doing.

[farfromsubtle]

She didn't bring up Vietnam?!

[Rhobbynneq]

I love watching the banter between these two. It's fun to watch these folks that seem like what me and my movie buff friends will be like when we are set in our opinions and perspectives. Neither of them back down from their points of view. Just a joy!

[cherriesjub]

I really enjoy the two opposing opinions and really makes you rethink the movie-thank you!

[Jenny77777]

I wrote a screenplay from a woman point of view! I'm looking for a producer :o)

[MadScout]

You should look for an agent, but either one is good.

[Jenny77777]

Or find a way to get 10 million dollars and produce it myself :D

[TracyInsomiac]

"Comidia del Arte'? This ain't exactly Harlequin and Columbine, kids!

Still, I get your point. I think that there are in-roads like "Ugly Betty" on TV and such, but to this day, people find it hard to believe that females have a hard time replacing men.

[SuperrChecka]

I LOVE THEM

[Kathespoonmonkey]

I think that she is right on. There isn't that many women movies that are told in the women's perspective. He frankly, comes off as a bit of a chauvanist.

[sharonafox1]

Actresses always complain about the lack of good scripts for women. I say there are few good scripts for men as well. Most the films that are shown in the theater you can't pay me to see.

If an actress wants a good script they should learn the craft and either write their own or work with writers to develop their own scripts.

Nia Vardalas wrote her own script (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) and ended up creating the highest grossing Romantic Comedy ever.

Don't complain...WRITE!

[MadScout]

Bingo. Not just women. Ethnic minorities as well. Being African-American, I wrote a script about my life when I was 15, lonely and a wunderkind writer.

[sharonafox1]

B-I-N-G-O !

[Goldhelmriel]

Agreed, he was a bit of a turd in this one- he was quite a bit more insulting to Marcia than usual (usually its only one or two off-color comments or jabs).

I also think its a bit naive of him to say all that is needed is for women to write the scripts they want to see. He KNOWS the movie business & knows how difficult it is to get even good original writing & scripts by anyone. Even if its a good script, they can reject it, or they will edit it to death until its typical Hollywood crap.

[kclark3858]

I enjoyed the movie too. I was also suprised of the full frontal nudity.

[FoxesWithGuns]

the MPAA stance on wieners used to be ANY penis showing equals an NC-17 rating immediately. Amazing how things have changed.

[jeffrey5366]

The MPAA has always allowed male frontal nudity in R rated films as long as the penis is limp and the exposure doesn't occur in the context of a sexually explicit scene.

[FoxesWithGuns]

i reject your reality and substitute my own

[Goldhelmriel]

LOL...wieners

[maymaerg]

Luv u 2! Gr8 review!

[johnkirst]

Stella got her groove back.

[dieselkid653]

I think his points were very well made, and hers.... not soo much. I really want to see this movie.
