Why do they make movies like this? Because there's so many idiots that will pay money to watch this crap.

If stuff like this gets you off then you have serious problems

welcome to the world of mainstream comedy... it's made exclusively for idiots. Or for intelligent people who want to shut off their brains for an hour and a half.

Why would an intelligent person want to turn of his or her brain? That sounds like an excuse for dumb people. Movie watching shouldn't be a passive act.

I disagree with everything you said, but anyone with a simpsons username/avatar combo is okay with me =)

Less than forget. But more than begun.

Movie watching can be anything you want it to be. The brain is a muscle, and like any muscle it needs to relax from time to time.

In most countries people who scrape the barrel for cheap laughs tend to be bankrupted into obscurity and shamed from villages. Here...in America, they pat themselves on the back and celebrate stupidity. I really blame brain dead masses.

Aniston is in it, that's enough to know that the movie will be overrated and devoid of laughs.

Because people who voted for Trump will line up around the block to watch this crap.

Corrected.

@moist888: And a once only Clinton voter- yours truly. Because I really had something against someone who'd never held an elected political office.

Problem is there are too many comedies nowadays that play exclusively to the very stupid and not nearly enough smart ones to even that number out. I enjoy a raunchy movie, like Wedding Crasher for example, and hoped this would come close to that but it just doesn't in any way. It seems like there was really no script at all and every actor is just winging it.

Trying to create a channel based on interpreting, reviewing, and even giving you something to laugh about film. Hope you enjoy what you see. Thanks in advance.

Really? Because I think it might be the opposite in this case. If you can't enjoy watching a silly comedy once in a while, then I feel bad for you. Your "sitting on my high horse" attitude indicates that you are the one with problems. If you don't enjoy these type of comedies that's cool, but don't judge people that do watch them, because your opinion is no more valid than anyone else's. And it makes you seem pretty uptight and not fun to be around.

Reminds me of social experiment youtube vids where people film themselves helping poor people so they feel good about themselves and get millions of views and youtube ad pays for the money you gave to the poor person woohoo.

I know what you mean, but it's better than not doing anything. And they are also reminding society to be kind and giving. Unfortunately, our narcissistic society needs those reminders now more than ever.
