I watched a few movies over the weekend.
Team America: World Police (2004)
After the total brilliance of “South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut,” Matt Stone and Trey Parker released this dud of a movie on us. Some parts of it are funny, but for the most of the film the jokes just fall flat on their face, the musical “bits” are pretty lame and it last about 30 minutes longer than it should have. Zzzzzzzzz.
Into the Blue (2005)
This is a pretty decent psuedo-remake of “The Deep” (which is a pretty terrible film). It gets lots of bonus points for tons and tons of Paul Walker eye candy (please see below).
London (2005)
Not a really good movie. It’s a little too talkie and philosophical. But the Chris Evans eye candy factor (see below) is very high … so I liked it!
Apparently, Mssr Evans has been advised by his people to stop taking his shirt off so much if he wants to be taken seriously.
And given that he’ll *never* be taken seriously, I say–Keep the damn shirt off. And while you’re at it, lose the pants.
Everyone has AIDS. AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS. AIDS AIDS. I can’t believe you didn’t like Team American. Seriously, puppet sex with pee and feces; That’s funny plus the “Rent” parody. Oh well, maybe I’m just not high brow enough.
Oh … I think Chris Evans does have the possibility of being taken seriously at some point. Just depends on what type of material he chooses to do. Remember how Tom Hanks went from crappy comedies to serious actor?
No matter what happens, Chris can still loose the pants!
Yeah. “Team America” just didn’t do it for me for some reason. I don’t think it was a high brow/low brow kinda thing.
