    The fantastic mullets in the original are really what set it apart.  Without those mullets, the remake was never going to be the same.  But they still did a pretty good job of capturing the cheese and making an entertaining action movie.

     

    Mullets, jeans, boots, dirt bikes, and monster trucks.

    Just saw it, thought it was terrible.   Shitty, shitty script and just bad acting.  Holy shit, Efron's wooden.

    The casting also really bothered me, because Efron looked A LOT like Kerry, but played Kevin.  And JAW looked nothing like Kerry (and a little bit like Kevin).  If they had switched those two actors, it would have been marginally better.  The Mike part of the story was the only part that I thought was pretty well done.

    I couldn't get past the fact that Efron's accent he was doing just made him sound like Keef from The Righteous Gemstones.

    yeah I saw it on facebook too.  I understood the premise. 

    Honestly, I didn’t see it on Facebook. But if it makes you feel better, I’ll keep it serious on the Movies and TV forum.

    well we know you certainly didn’t.  good job posting a facebook meme, though. 

    God damn man. It was just a funny thought about how if a young director was to make a new movie that was nostalgic about his high school years that it would take place in 2007. Which seems like yesterday. Whereas when I first saw Dazed in 1994, 1979 seemed like a distant past. I didn’t think that needed to be explained.

    No, it would take place in the 80s or 90s depending upon which decade the writer/director grew up in and romanticizes. 

    ABC did a new version of The Wonder Years with an African American family. It was still set in the 60s. 

    You're overthinking it, pal.

    I’m shocked at all of the positive reviews here of the Curb finale. It was the same basic concept as the Seinfeld final. The writers showed zero creativity and the episode was a rehash of the same Seinfeld stuff. Terrible finale. Second worst in history behind Game of Thrones. The final season pretty much stunk too, with the same tired Leroy fuck jokes over and over. 

    Totally agree. Leon was a one note character. I can't believe so many here love the guy so much.

    Not to start that argument, but non-linear story telling has been used since ancient times.  The Iliad and Odyssey are both non-linear.

    Yep, Tramon Mark and Devo Davis went into the portal and Trevon Brazile went pro 

    Wait, was that real? I never heard much about it and that it was just message board bullshit.

    The "I work for Disney" skit had me rolling.  Classic ep.

    Vince Vaughn should have been on as a regular a long time ago and phased out Leon.

    Agree. Leon is really wasted time.

    Damn, that was a good episode. Beats the shit out of the Cactus Jack-type shit, but guess that would defeat the point of the series. 

    Agreed. Really enjoyed it. I was a huge mark for that Earthquake/Hogan feud when I was a kid.

    Is that John Favreau? 

    Dude, it's clearly Owen Wilson.

    The professor being a furry and not pursuing Blair in Cat Woman costume was a pretty funny unexpected twist.

    I chuckled pretty hard at that.
