Like you said he was part of 3 characters (that was the chemistry) I want to see him in a movie by himself without the rest covering up for him.

I liked the movie, for me its a must buy, but won't recommend you buying it since we are our own critics.

I suggest you watching it first, and decide.

McLovin was the best IMO.

Lepidopterous · 08-12-2009, 03:06 AM

I don't think the guy has that much comedic talent, but his face is funny.

I totally agree, and the actor that played him, followed up {pretty solidly IMO} with Role Models.

I wouldn't pay money for that movie, I'd pay money to watch the look of utter horror, disgust, and shock that would be on your face watching it.

{I'd also video tape it and take pictures and post it on youtube}

And I think he'll be in Kick Ass, whenever that comes out.

Batman1980 · 08-12-2009, 03:08 AM

I dunno that actor reminds me of John Heder. Looks way too much like a dork to ever really play anything else in his movies. Besides, when was the last time you saw John Heder in anything? Exactly.

Thanks for trying to dumb it down for me though.

Opinions that seem to have a great deal of support. *LOL*

No worries dude, I know there's no hate, even if there was, this is the internet.

Even if Hill could track me down, and show up at my door, I'd just kick him in his gut and keep walking.

GO keyboard warrior!

SonOfArathorn · 08-13-2009, 01:32 AM

Was going to reply to jaded.... thought better of it. I'll just that idiocy speaks for itself sometimes. To say anyone who likes Hill is a pot smoking mountain dew/dorito eater is beyond stupid. Calling it a fact, or even insinuating it takes stupidity to a whole new level.

The guy isn't all that funny but he's got good comedic timing and with good writing he's usually spot on. His character in Forgetting Sarah Marshall is one of the high points of that show. I like him as an aside, can't seem him as a leading man though.

OrlandoEastwood · 08-13-2009, 01:33 AM

He backed out of Machete. Bad move, he could have established himself as a "decent" actor than a "s***ty" actor.

Bro, you made your point.
Let it gooo

I find Jonah Hill hilarious.
Even if he gets stuck doing the "side-kick" thing, it doesn't really matter.

Gamma_Winstead · 08-13-2009, 02:12 AM

He did good in funny people.

And i love Knocked up.

Guess i'm a pot head. oh wait... never did pot.

Stop spreading your opinions as facts Logan.

Never do anything serious, eh?

Had to revive this old thread for that

He is just like Will Ferrel for me. I usually avoid films he is in, but at least I don't purposefully avoid films Mr. Hill is in. He just isn't funny to me.

Watch Anchor Man and Everything Must Go then tell me he's not funny!

Deffinately missed both of those.

I'll give anchorman a try sometime in the future. If I remember to....

Done. Anchorman is tolerable, but the Ferrell parts are by far the worst. The movie only barely survives due to the supporting cast. Look at Talledega Nights, it's basically the same movie, but the supporting cast is not better than Ferrell, and it's horrific. He's no Adam Sandler, but he's probably my second least favorite comedy actor today.

As for Hill, love the guy. He's hilarious. I am saddened he was too busy shooting Neighborhood Watch to do Django Unchained. I'm sure it will be a somewhat funny film (I like Vaughn a lot too), but let's be serious- a standard-issue comedy, versus a Tarantino film. I really wish the Neighborhood Watch producers would have let Hill out of his contract to due Django Unchained, or moved their schedule, but I guess that's life.

Yeah I can understand why you'd revive this but its from 2009 so.......

I know people either like him or hate him - I tend to lean towards liking his roles.
