WKND PREVIEW: ADVENTURE VS. FAST/FOURIOUS

Written by Vince Mancini / 04.03.09

Weekend Preview:

Adventureland: See it.  You can check out my review here. For what it’s worth, I’ve seen Observe and Report, I Love You, Man, and Adventureland, and Adventureland is easily the best of the three. It’s also the name of my van.  I painted a solar system on the interior that glows in black-light.  It’s far out.

4 Fast and 4 Furious: Every time I criticize these turds I hear, “Whatsa matter with you, you don’t like hot cars and hot women, faggot?”  My dad aside, it’s not the subject I have a problem with, it’s that, besides the story being aggressively stupid and the acting Paul Walker-y, it’s just poorly made.  If you want to make a car chase movie, film a car chase.  Don’t keep cutting between feet on the pedals, reaction shots, and hands shifting.  It’s worse than retarded, it’s f-ing boring.  Oh, and I know the title’s supposed to be “Fast and Furious”, but blow me, you can’t just take the “the”s out of something and call it new.  It’s 4 Fast 4 Furious, and you’re an idiot if you go see it.  Now get off my lawn and pull up your goddamned pants.

Bart Got a Room: Check out William H. Macy’s awesome Jew fro, but only if you live in New York or LA.

Gigantic: See Zooey Deschanel fall in love with a hipster pussy again – but again, only if you live in New York or LA.  I’ve heard really good things about this movie, but that’s typical of anything hipster. The main thing is, they’ve seen it before you.

In Gigantic, Paul Dano plays a quirky mattress salesman who falls in love with free spirit Zooey Deschanel when her unconventional father figure John Goodman buys a non-traditional bed – but life is so complicated when you have a trust fund!  Based on the book you bought at Urban Outfitters.  Okay, I’m kidding about that last part.  I think.  Anyway, as I’ve mentioned, I think Zooey Deschanel is cute as hell.  I can’t decide if I want to f-ck her or nuzzle her.  But I’m confused as to how this isn’t the exact same movie as 500 Days of Summer.  Poor Zooey, her agent keeps getting her parts where she falls in love with hipster pussies. We all know what she really wants is man’s man like me, who wears cutoff jean shorts and drives a pickup with an axe rack. Come on, baby, lemme split that log.
