Who wouldn't relate to a lonely manic stalker- no wait
Ben Stiller had a perfect director's streak with Cable Guy, Zoolander and Tropic Thunder
Ever had people in your life that refuse to leave you alone? They call, they come by, they get involved in discussions... It's so frustrating and this movie made that funny. :)
Darn I thought my joke was obvious
I don't think mrmanager missed your sarcasm. I think they were saying that they enjoyed the movie precisely because it took such an awkward and unpleasant premise and managed to make it funny.
I agree with you both. Damn it was dark, but holy crap was it funny.
That scene at Medieval Times when Carrey does that great rendition of the fight music from Star Trek. "Come hither, so that I may brain thee!"
It's always been interesting to me how relevant movies from the 90s and early 2000s make Star Trek seem at that time. Cable Guy and Wayne's World both come to mind as movies that make multiple, occasionally obscure Trek references. I was born in 96 and watch a fair amount of Trek but it just doesn't feel as relevant in my generation :/
