Dear Mr. Media,
I’ve seen the previews for Wild Hogs and it looks bad, not quite as bad as Battlefield Earth but definitely worse than Be Cool. Still, I can’t think up the proper way to insult the movie when my moron friends ask me to go see it this week. Can you help me out? Stumped in Mesa / Phoenix
Dear SIMP,
I sympathize with your dilemma. Finding the proper insult for this movie is a challenge for most people. Luckily, I am filled to the brim with snark so I can help. Here are a few handy phrases:
Picture the kids from Stand By me all grown up and lobotomized. Oh, and one of them is black now.
It’s St. Elmo’s Fire for a new millennium!
Hey William H. Macy, I’m a big fan of your early work!
If I wanted to see four middle-aged men on motorcycles deal with their mid-life crisis, I’d visit your mother.
I always wondered who was the better actor, Tim Allen or Martin Lawrence. Now I can finally see them head-to-head!
Remember how John Travolta was cool, then he wasn’t, then he was again? Me either.
So a Hollywood casting director thinks Martin Lawrence looks about the same age as William H. Macy. Maybe you should lay off the drugs Martin.
Wow, I guess they made a movie out of Twenty Good Years.
Hey Tim Allen, The end of your career just called, it wants to get together..
