I've recentlty seen one of these movies and thought it was better than expected, but since I can't discuss it in a general movie thread it's now a game. What is the best movie to star two of 4 modern day Hope & Crosby (Owen Wilson, Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, or Vince Vaughn)? Have I missed any?
Anchorman
Dodgeball
Meet the Fockers
Meet the Parents
Old School
Royal Tenenbaums
Starsly & Hutch
Wedding Crashers
Zoolander
Vote one off. My vote: it would be Meet the Fockers but I haven't seen it. So, I vote Old School.

Right now it seems to be a tie: 2 votes for Starsky & Hutch, Anchorman, and Meet the Fockers. Any last vote? |

Off Starsky and Hutch, even if I haven't seen Anchorman and Oldschool. I was really disapointed.

I vote off Meet The Fockers, because it's a steaming pile of crap. And I don't think I'll participate in the next round cause I haven't seen any of the other movies mentioned. Oh wait, I've seen the Royal Tenenbaums. That was ok.

I vote off Meet The Fockers, because I haven't seen it. Take that!
Dean, seriously, you need to be careful suggesting quoting Stiller/Wilson/Ferrell movies round me, it may set off a relapse.
The files are... in the computer?

I haven't seen anchorman, get rid of that.
That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

We need a vote. I haven't even seen all of the movies.

You're right Darwin, I worded that poorly. I meant the quote itself isn't funny when I said "that". As for Royal Tenenbaums, I thought that movie was funnier than many on that list.

But you did say "there is just nothing funny about that to make it worth quoting." I'm not defending quoting Dodgeball other than "Arghhh" when the whistle blows. |

Of course slapstick is funny (that's why I'd have a tough time voting off Meet the Parents), but it isn't funny when you quote the line by itself as the funniest line in the movie.

Rip Thorn sitting in wheelchair throwing wrenches at a high school student isn't funny? How about the guy from RadioNews unsuccessfully running through traffic? I like my movies dumb (e.g. Dodgeball), but not purposefully odd (e.g. Napoleon Dynamite). |

Well, I think they both have moments. But Dodgeball has more, scary though that may be.
But if I hear one person say, "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball" I'm going to put the theory to test. There is just nothing funny about that to make it worth quoting.

Dodgeball, since it frankly is not funny in the slightest.

Perhaps we need to clarify this general thread business. I think a thread that narrows down from movies to discussion about a set of movies or comparisons of actors/directors/styles/whatever is different than a thread that says "If you saw a good movie list it here."
The purpose is to have MORE threads about specific discussion in general chat, not a few really broad threads. :)
Haven't seen Zoolander, which would be my pick, so I'll vote off Anchorman.
