Like Tony! Toni! Tone!, Dell, over at Dell on Movies has done it again. And yes, it feels good.
Rebooting last year's Against the Crowd blogathon, Dell's back with what would appear to be his annual assignment. In short, Dell's asking us to fight the good fight...like this:
1) Pick a movie that everyone loves, square up, and kick it in the balls.
2) Pick a movie that no one loves, and take it out to dinner. Invite it up for coffee. And then, after pretending to really listen, make sweet love to it.
3) In each case, use tomatoes. Rotten ones.
I don't recall hating Frozen [review]. Not at all. But, I think we all need to calm the f--k down, you know? This is basically every other Disney flick ever made with some cute(r) songs and a talking snowman, okay? It's not something you divorce your husband for not really being that into.
Worldwide, this is the 8th highest grossing film of all-time (although I'd like to shit on most of those films...and have here, here, here aaaand here). The f--k? It's basically a worse version of Tangled [review], and that came out only three years earlier, so it's not like this was something we'd never seen before!
Bad movie? No. Watch it again? Also no.
I'd rather put my dick in the snow.
Just like last year, I'm going to take shots at something universally adored, and stick my neck out for something no one gives a shit about. While that's within the rules, I guess, the idea was to stand up for a film that has a bad reputation, yes, but one that well...matters. Even if just a little. Well, friends, Deuce Bigalo: Male Gigalo probably doesn't fit the bill, but regardless, let me tell you: I f--king love this movie. So many great lines, possibly the best-worst plot ever, and Eddie Griffin eating tomatoes out of a hot tub (while probably inventing the term man-whore and man-gina along the way). I mean, what's not to like? Oh, and bonus points must be awarded to William Forsythe for kicking all kinds of ass as the psychotic cop with the small, no - thin, dick. He's so awesome.
Hmm. Maybe picking a Rob Schnieder movie was a mistake.
Did you just say steak?
