yeh looks reallllly bad, myers fell off, pretty offensive to indians id think

Marzen · 05-22-2008, 06:08 PM

Looks like a great rental.

As far as being offensive, I usually don't care as long as it's funny.

dad2erin · 05-23-2008, 08:32 PM

What's up with this, Amazon is preordering this almost a month before theatrical release? What's next preordering the dark knight?

And yet there are people in the thread trying to say that making fun of the retarded is wrong.

Irony stings sometimes.

Anyone notice the Playstation Logo at 1:13, 1:17, and 1:22? Probably the best part of the movie if you ask me

So, it's cool to call something 'retarded' but just not make fun of traditions and customs of India?

Oh yeah, I'm buying that one, yup.

Agreed!

If it's funny, who gives a shit?

Oh wait, that'd be the folks who take themselves too seriously and threaten beheadings over newspaper cartoons.

Not offended by it but definately wont be wasting my time on it. Not even close to a rental for me. I wouldnt even bit torrent it.

Pacioli · 05-23-2008, 09:52 PM

Nothing offensive about it, but I wouldn't even accept this movie as a gift. I've never found Meyers remotely entertaining, and it doesn't appear that this movie that will change that opinion.

Slackr89 · 05-23-2008, 10:16 PM

wow, harsh, or a no sense of humour site. i personally found it hilarious, can't wait to see it in theaters and enjoy on blu. then again i am 19, and generally speaking by the polls about age this is an older board....maybe you guys lost your sense of humour

also i really dont care if it is offensive; hell they make fun of Canadians all the time and i laugh with them. (i am Canadian if you didnt notice

)

Well, you ARE from Edmonton.

The rest of us seem to think that you're the butt of a joke just by living in "Conservative-ville U.S.A."

The preorder thing is ridiculous. The movie looks good though. I plan on seeing it.

That's ok, we can just agree that the NDP suck massive ass and leave it at that. *LOL*

I don't think it would be very offensive, I think the storyline behind The Love Guru is more focused on Mike Myers being goofy and trying to hook up the hockey player and his wife, while also trying to get with Jessica Alba. I found some pics on IESB

Verne Troyer (mini-me from Austin Powers) cracks me up! He could not say anything and just walk around in that outfit and it'd be funny.

wow all it takes for you to laugh is seeing a midget?

I stopped liking meyers after Austin Powers 1. love wayne's world, axe murderer is pretty good, but he's just totally lost it.
