all star cast of DOUCHEBAGS!!


I want to slap everyone that had anything to do with this movie. Especially that p***y nerdy ass boyfriend. He was so *beep* dumb it was really unbelievable that they can create characters that *beep* stupid.

Dam U IMDB! I can't get any work done with you around!

I agree.

The entire cast was miscast. I enjoyed it but would have been so much better with different actors

Actually, you know what I THINK it really was...? The director. HAS to be... because even if the actors are pure $hit, a GOOD director should be able to work with them and tone them down to the point where they can at least just get the story across WITHOUT making the rest of us want to go on a phuk'n shooting spree.

Basically, it is the DIRECTOR that has the ultimate responsibility to make them look 'good', or at least a HELL of a lot better than he did 

Hollywood employs forumlas that have worked in the past and continue to work. The nerdy, dumb, clueless boyfriend is a plot device to make credible a couple's hapless stumbling into danger. This being the politically-correct era, the nerdy and clueless but often boyishly handsome and charming boyfriend is usually a white guy. In the television sitcoms, the white guys are often portrayed as naive and bumbling next to the uber-intelligent, classy, glamorous, fashionable white chicks who are the superstars in the sitcoms.

All posters on this thread are morons! This was very well cast! Jill Wagner and Shea Whigham were excellent in this film! Even Paulo Costanzo was solid. Very good and well acted horror flick!

reply

The real-life Jill Wagner, being something of a tough, hybrid city-country girl from North Carolina, raised by a former Marines father, would be the last American girl to date a nerd guy like Seth. Jill would be more likely to date the macho, he-man-type villain in the movie.

reply

I could not disagree more. Jill has stated in interviews that she prefers nerdy guys. Her character LOVES Seth and the writing and her acting show that time and again!

Caution...I've learned that women can be as politically-correct and hypocritical as men.
Women tend to be very embarrassed to admit physical attraction of men, especially of handsome men who are jerks because it calls into question their intelligence and better judgment.
Some guys are willing to admit, hey, they like hot babes. At least they're honest.

But really, no one is truly to blame. It's evolution and genetics. Humans are genetically-programmed to feel sexual attraction for physically attractive members of the opposite sex. Scientist tell us this is simply our primeval genetic behavior steering us towards mates who have good genes.

In the 21st century it's easier for young women. A hybrid type of young guy has emerged in high schools and college. This type of young man is computer savvy and likes geeky and nerdy stuff. He's usually an expert video gamer. But he frequently likes music and is an expert with it in some fashion. Sometimes this kind of guy even owns a music instrument and plays it with buddies. Also, many of these guys do some physical activity in high school like track and field, swimming, tennis, and a few even do baseball and football. One version of this type of guy post-college age is a hipster. But he's only one type.

Any pretty young woman who claims she likes nerds is a liar. Just look at her past and present boyfriends.

Or you're just talking bollocks...

Ditto, none of the characters was smart or likeable. Seth was especially irritating.

Boycott movies that involve real animal violence! (and their directors too)

I'm no snob or anything, but I absolutely could NOT get through the atrocious acting. I'm sure that later on the monster was great and all, but the Gawd-Awful Phuk'n 'acting' made me wanna rip my own head off.

Actually, I think I did... 

If a director, no matter how frigg'n BRILLIANT his story idea may be, cannot have his actors just come across as REAL phuk'n people instead of annoying, and COMPLETELY UNbelievable, plastic caricatures, then, I'm sorry, I just don't personally have the stomach or the patience for it.

After about 10 straight minutes when the 'bad' couple show up of 'you awright baby?' and 'Baby, baby, look at me' and NOT to mention HER $hit performance, I had to take 2 Valium and call it a day...

Seriously...
