50 MOVIES THAT OUTGROSSED MEET DAVE
lance, i cannot thank you enough for this blinding jolt of reality…you are a prince among men.
I’ve seen 4 of those movies. Fuck my life.
I like ho they have to differentiate the Man of the House titles between Tommy Lee Jones and Jonathan Taylor Thomas or "JTT" as I like to call him.
Somewhere, in a darkly lit room, Schadenfreude Sloth steeples his claws and cackles.
41. The missing basement surveilance camera tape from the Ramsey house.
Probably should have typed 51.
To how many of these movies did Eddie Murphy show up at the premier?
When I was kid, I found a sex tape that my parents made. Trust me, it outgrossed everything on that last. Meet Dave 2? That might win.
Basic is 17th? Honestly, I thought that was pretty fuckin’ good.
Hey Rot, I saw your parents movie. I was a lot better than Meet Dave. Take it from an unbiased viewer.
Yeah, but Pluto Nash cost nearly twice what Meet Dave did, yet only grossed 40% of Meet Dave’s $5.3 million. If my math is correct, Eddie Murphy needs to release two more sci-fi crapfests to start actually earning money.
I think i may have seen it too. Rot, your dad isn’t Vern Troyer is he?
IT!!! IT was better than Meet Dave.
FUCK!
Four of the Top 10 involve Saturday Night Live cast members. I just thought that was noteworthy, should Lorne Michaels read this while loading one bullet into a fucking gun.
What the hell is Good Burger about? Was it Macdonald’s response to Supersize me?
Good Burger was hilarious and awesome.
According to my 9 year old son.
Oh yeah, Taxi, is that the Queen Latifah vehicle? (Should have been called Fork Lift Truck.) Anyone else ever seen that? The suspension of disbelief required to accept that the
godguy playing her boyfriend would settle for her lumpen ass was beyond this fella.Couldn’t Kenan Thompson take a hint from Kel and just fall off the face of the Earff?
Good burger was a comedy about jolly fat black people with low paying jobs and things of that nature.
Not counting the Police Academy movies (can you say, "USA Up All Night"?) and the Bill & Ted movies, can anyone guess the one movie on that list I have seen? (It should be a pretty easy guess…)
Near misses:
Ladybugs - $5.1 Million
Tron (in 1982) - $4.7 Million
Glitter (10 days after the WTC attack) - $2.4 Million
Son of the Mask, Fek?
Nigga, please!
I thought Sarah Jessica Parker was fantastic in Hidalgo, BTK.
I watched Good Burger on HBO one day. One of the most insanely awful films in history.
