Comedy?


I watched. the trailer and thought to myself "yes, finally another serious movie role for Will Ferrell. The movie looks like a pretty decent thriller. Then I saw that it is listed as a comedy on IMDb. Anyone knows if this is true? Replies such as "you dumb freak, the trailer was *beep* funny" will be reported and risks a lifetime ban from IMDb.

Wills character will likely crack a few jokes here and there as I'd expect but I'm sure the main focus will be the serious drama/thriller moments so there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Also the threats weren't necessary because you can just as simply place any troll on your ignore list and be done with it.

reply

You are so wrong. Those weren't threats. I'm living proof he has the power to ban people. Seriously, I dared to challenge him and got tossed off nearly instantly.

You're welcome.

reply

Well I was simply stating that with or without that power it's still easier to simply utilize the ignore feature. Anyway ill leave it at that.

Looking forward to this movie.

Not when you have the power to instan-ban, like the OP clearly does. I was gone so fast I got whiplash. I can never post on the site again, what a bummer!

You're welcome.

You'll be missed.

I'm already going through withdrawal being unable to post here.

I'll get you for this, OP!

You're welcome.

reply

Okay thanks, I haven't heard anything about the movie until now. I'm really looking forward to it as well.

Freak, you dumb. *bleep* this trailer looks funny

reply

Uh-oh! Now you've gone and done it! Prepare to be banned for life! Just like I was.

You're welcome.

LouisGur; I'm of the opinion, after watching the trailer, they are playing their roles straight like the actors did in the comedy classic "Airplane". I think both Ferrell and Wiig hope we get the jokes and will laugh at the silliness of some of these types of movies. Just my opinion.

reply

It doesn't seem a comedy at all to me. I was also surprised to see that after watching the trailer.
Anyway, we'll see when the movie comes out :)

Andrew Steele wrote it. It is 100% a comedy. It's a lifetime original movie that makes fun of lifetime original movies. Will be intentionally over-exaggerated with its drama. So yes it will be a comedy, but not a Anchorman type comedy. Check out the Spoils of Babylon. Its a filmmaker's film. It will be corny on purpose. Its all in fun.

reply

Didn't do much research, I'll be sure to check it out. Thanks!

As of now IMDb says comedy drama thriller, but my Charter guide says it's a drama. Maybe it's a drama with comedic and thrilling moments or a true unclassifiable genre mashup.

A lifetime ban? Ok Bart Giamatti!

reply

More a joke to see how people react. Where did you get Bart Giamatti from though? Have to say, you just wrote the name of the most influential character in my life and also the surname of one of my favorite actors.

reply

I demand you un-permaban me! I need to be able to post here again!

You're welcome.

Bart Giamatti was Paul Giamatti's father. He was the commissioner of Major League Baseball responsible for Pete Rose's lifetime ban. Then he died 8 days later.
