Kevin James stole Brendan Fraser’s career and made it fatter. Here’s the teaser for Zookeeper, Kevin James’ latest in which he gets love advice from talking zoo animals. I could say a lot about this film, but I think Scream, Fall Down, and Monkey Covers His Eyes pretty much covers it.
And yes, this script sparked a bidding war and eventually sold for $3 million dollars. And you wonder why MGM is broke.

Here are some side-by-side comparisons of The Zookeeper with the Brendan Fraser classic, Furry Vengeance.
I wonder how Brendan Fraser feels about this…
Well that’s good. He doesn’t seem to mind.

Kevin James stole Brendan Fraser’s career and made it fatter for COTW. Let’s make this happen people.
I bet it is number one and doubles its budget. *sigh*
Remember how they used to smear peanut butter on Mr. Ed’s gums to make it look like he was talking? They used the same technique here, but Kevin James contract insisted that he will only eat “Goober Grape”.
And you wonder why MGM is broke.
The Mighty Feklahr just assumed that it got expensive feeding their lion Christians.
I had a long joke written where the punchline was that they’re mailing it in, but I didn’t think it was fitting spending more time writing a joke about the movie than they spent actually writing it.
I think it is more likely you realized your joke sucked.
That too.
I hope he takes mating advice from the praying mantis.
@keyHo: too bad about that realization, the bidding war was about to escalate.
At least we know this will be it for Kevin James as he’s taken his “do-little” work ethic to it’s inevitable conclusion.
Isn’t this basically A Night At The Museum with all of the secondary characters replaced with furrier versions**?
**Robin Williams excepted
If they want a bidding war, I’ve got one for them:
A baboon is genetically bred to be a perfect heart transplant candidate for a cute little white girl dying of a horrible disease. Along comes a man who can speak to animals that finds out the baboon doesn’t want to die to help this little girl so together they fight for the ape’s right to live. *SPOILER* the little girl dies, the baboon dies, and the man who claims he can talk to animals is sent away for psychiatric evaluation.
‘My Sister’s Zookeeper’ in theaters Christmas 2011.
Needs more orangutan cock.
(But I say that about everything.)
If they gave all the animals the amount of cocaine that robin Williams takes daily; I would see this movie.
I’ll start taking love advice from the animal kingdom the minute my fleshlight starts queefing out recipes.
It’ll probably make more than Night at the Museum, so $3 mil is nothing in comparison to the snack budget they had to agree to as part of KJ’s contract.
I had an idea which involved Kevin James in a lions den.
Oh, it wasn’t for a movie.
@Rebeccaaa Are those fashionable bags made from Kevin James’ animal friends?
