Wouldn't count it because it's capeshit. People went to see that because it was a superhero movie and it was rated R. 20th Fox ad Ryan Reynolds did a ton of marketing for it too

- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice.
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal to a troll. The individual in the video is very obviously Patrick S. Tomlinson.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never submitted this video footage during any of his many media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.
True. Was The Hangover the last R rated comedy that did well? Or was it Bridesmaids?
Nevermind it beat it out Bridesmaids by almost 100 million.
I think the last “big” R rated box office hit comedy was Seth Rogen / Zac Enron movie Neighbors or its sequel. Post Covid it’s near impossible to have another huge comedy, people will just wait until it’s on streaming.
Neighbors was one I remember being a big hit when it came out despite being a pile of shit. I remember the sequel while not a flop did under perform though. I also remember Ted being a huge hit even though it was awful.
22 Jump Street and Ted 2 did about as well as Neighbors and they were both sequels.
So this topic actually got me interested and I looked back at R rated comedies that were released in 2019 and the only major studio one I could find that was a success was Good Boys and even that never reached the same level as something like Hangover or 21 Jump Street. In fact, there weren't a lot of R rated comedies released that year and most were indie films, not major studio stuff.
Are they any bankable comedy actors anymore? Will Ferrell knows his time has passed, Ben Stiller is now behind the camera, Seth Rogen’s last couple movies tanked, Jonah Hill hasn’t really done anything comedy in years same for John C Reily, Jim Carey is unfunny and bitter, Steve Carrell does more serious roles, Chris Pratt lost weight so he’s not the funny fat guy, Franco got cancelled, etc.
I’m actually having a real hard time coming up with current big name comedy guys that could have a box office hits. Maybe Kevin Hart?
Kevin Hart is one of the few I can think of. I guess Sandler too, but he's got that deal with Netflix and hasn't really released anything in theaters since Uncut Gems.
Will Ferrell's shit got old after playing a man child every fucking movie and that Holmes and Watson movie was so bad it almost Love Guru'ed his career. People got tired of Seth Rogen's brand of humor and he dug himself into a further hole with all his left wing bullshit. Jonah Hill only seems to be interested in doing lame arthouse shit or playing supporting roles now. I can't even remember the last fucking movie Jim Carey was in.
I really like Steve Carrell as an actor, but even with Office fame he isn't exactly the most bankable star anymore. Most of his dramas are independent films and remember that awful Marwen movie that was a major flop at the box office. It's not just comedy, but it really feels like the days of the movie star are approaching their end.
Bert has Kevin Smith on. Watch the beginning. Literally sponsored by zog.
Summary: Bert cuts off a Weinstein story and never lets Kevin finish it.

Whats gayer? Stoner Kevin Smith or Vegan Kevin Smith?
Yes
Yesterdays box office numbers are in and it only grossed $535k. That's 75% down from last Friday. It's going to have a massive drop this weekend and will be dropped from almost all theaters next week. It might not even finish it's domestic run with 10 million at this point.

I watched it last night. It wasn't bad tbchwy. And the chick who plays the Russian mobster made me realize why dominatrices are a thing.
How about "I Became An Atheist Because My Dog Died" Kevin Smith? Or is it merely All of the Above?

Saw it in a theater. AMC. They have a bar now, so you can drink while watching. Was an entertaining night
