    Started watching the former, got about 1/4 into the titular duration before skipping to the end to see if it really did end the way I'd expected, which it did.

    I want to see Max Payne, simply because it looks like the most entertaining terrible movie of 2008.


    Never Back Down disagrees. It was easily the most Torquetastic movie of 2008. It's probably the Gone With the Wind of Torquetasticism. ritch:

    It's very very horrible, sir. It's one of those things we wish we could disinvent.

    And now we have Fighting to look forward to this year, starring Terrence Howard and Paul Walker II (Channing Tatum)!

    I thought it was very funny. Seeing it with my friends on opening night was a blast.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    2004 comedies better than Anchorman:

    Shaun of the Dead-Great
    Sideways-Didn't see
    I Heart Huckabees-Great
    Mean Girls-Didn't bother to see
    The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou-Great
    Citizen Dog-Never heard of it
    Saved!-Will get around to it eventually
    The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie-Good, but not better than Anchorman
    Incident at Loch Ness-Will seen sometime
    The Ladykillers-Meh, I'll get around to this someday
    Starsky and Hutch-No, but I liked it
    Shrek 2
    (yes, Shrek friggin' 2)-See above
    Lollilove-Never even heard of it

    2004 comedies worse than Anchorman:
    Napolean Dynamite-Yes, but it got a fresh rating anyways
    Team America: World Police-This one might be better
    Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
    =Good, but not better
    The best comedy of 2004 (out of the ones I saw) was either Shaun of the Dead or The Life Aquatic. I don't really consider I Heart Huckabees to be a comedy, although I guess if TLA is considered as such then it is too, and so would Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, even though IHH, ETSOTSM, and TLA all have strong elements of drama in them as well. Hmm....

    Derek's List:

    I Heart Huckabees-Great film
    Secret Things-Never heard of it
    The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou-Great
    The Saddest Music in the World-Yeah I should try and see that one

    Man, 2004 was a great year for comedies.

    I agree with whomever said I Heart Huckabees is one of the most annoying movies they've ever seen.

    Crazy talk. I found it adequate when I saw it in theaters, but have caught it a couple times on the movie channels since and my respect for it has grown with each viewing. It's now one of those movies that I stop and watch any time I see it's on.

    Really? I don't recall it featuring a ton of gags. Maybe its due for a rewatch, seeing as I last saw it two-three years ago. I remember it being funny in parts, but the dramatic elements stuck out more so in my mind. I think the rather odd title of "Dramady (drama + comedy)" might apply here. Or not.

    Also I've only seen I Heart Huckabees once. That one viewing was enough to convince me that it was the second best film I had seen from 2004. First would be Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Neither was nominated for Best Picture. Oh well.
