Re-posting my Paul thoughts in a shameless attempt to shame Brandon into a more sober perspective:
I was in a bad mood after having to stay late at work yesterday so I chose to go see a 10:20p showing of Paul to wind down.
If you like...
...gratuitous strings of vulgar language (for the sake of cheap laughs rather than honest character exploration), pseudo-science, nerd ignorance and prejudices, cheap shots at fundy evangelical caricatures, anal probe jokes, notorious product placement, hit-you-over-the-head-obvious-because-you're-stupid film and pop culture references, dumb road trip conventions, bromantic deconstructions of male friendships, cardboard characters, and a lame plot that doesn't do much to transcend any of the weakest of the above...
If you like all of those things, you'll love Paul.
I don't like any of those things.
I hate Paul.
Greg Mottola, you make me weep.
Honestly, I prefer ALF. The writing is much stronger. Seriously.
