Big Fan stars my favorite comedian Patton Oswalt, in the directorial debut of Rob Siegel, who wrote my favorite movie of last year The Wrestler. I’ve already rubbed my nerd sweat and anticipation boner all over this flick, so I’ll try not to repeat myself, but now it has a trailer. I hope this doesn’t give too much away, but as you can see, the Taxi-Driver-meets-football-fanaticism plot involves Patton’s character getting beat up by his favorite player and suddenly having the power to decide his fate.
It also has a cameo from Michael Rapaport, and as you can hear at the 38-second mark, Sirius radio sports guy Scott Ferrall playing himself. I don’t know how people can listen to that guy without getting nauseous. Every time I hear him I wonder who decided to give a guy who sounds like an 85-year-old hooker with a trach tube a talk radio gig. It’d be like putting a progeria baby with a lazy eye on TV. Dang, I just inadvertently described Stu Scott and John Clayton, didn’t I. I guess what I’m saying is that ugly people know a lot about sports.

I met Vanessa Del Rio, who i had genocided billions of fist babies to, and she was really cool until i asked her to watch me jerk off in front of her. i figured that was more respectful than asking her for anal, but i guess i was wrong.
Kurg the problem is that in order to watch you crank one out shed be fully aware that you were doing it. You shouldn’t even have to ask her for anal. Just slip it in and she’d never notice. Unless of course you’re swinging a 12 inch black death-cock.
I can name every player and the number they wore for all the Atlanta Braves players from 1993 and my Mom says I’m devilishly handsome.

for Al re: her question on where to find one
Thanks for thinkin of me, sexy.
John Clayton played varsity sports in high school. I hear he was responsible for every single point scored for the four seasons he played as the football at St. Aloysius High.
Stuart Scott and Forest Whitaker standing back-to-back can see everything, including the future and all airborne microbiotic life.
I’m swingin’ a 5 inch German-Irish cock and i’m a minute man even when i’m alone, so i don’t know what her problem was.
NSFW duh.
Stuart Scott is actually blind in one eye. Sometimes if you catch him on the 2AM SportsCenter, his co-anchor will blindside him with rubber bands while he’s leading into a highlight.
Fuck are you doing here so early? What is it, like 2 am Friday west coast time?
I’m always watching, baby. Like Santa. Or that uncle you never wanted to visit.
erswi, anyone who opens an image named “giant-black-cock.jpg” at work is weapons-grade stupid and deserves to be unemployed.
ps – stop doing that thing you do in the shower, it’s disgusting.
I guess what I’m saying is that ugly people know a lot about sports.
We sure do, Vinnie. We sure do.
Yeah? But how else am I going to get it clean?
Peet, “weapons grade stupid” is my new favorite term for New Orleans drivers. Also, look who we’re working wiff here on FD.
New tw’up – good time for me to hit the road. Try not to break anything while I’m gone.
(Steals new “Sheet” computer screen from government facility, punctures hole into it, waits for new Big Fan trailer)
Patton Oswald is probably the LEAST funny comedian alive. In the Comedians of Comedy all he does is go on and on about how he is a comedian. he must mention it over twenty times. People hung up on begin funny are not funny.
Why would you watch a movie called the Comedians of Comedy if you didn’t want to watch stand-up comedians talk about comedy?
