I hope the fat Capital one guy is the Umpire

3/23/2006 3:01:28 AM

No no, the Ump needs to be that guy from the Ditech.com commercials

3/23/2006 3:29:43 AM

^Nobody knows that guy

EVERYBODY and their brother knows Nate Torrence, aka Chubbs aka Moose

bttt.. So we can get some reviews soon

3/30/2006 2:52:45 PM

it stars Rob Schneider, David Spade, and Napolean Dynamite 2.0. that's as insightful a review you should ever need for Benchwarmers.

3/31/2006 2:01:11 AM

one giant collaboration of has been's or never were's

3/31/2006 4:12:12 AM

poor Shneider and Spade, never quite made it eh?

3/31/2006 5:40:19 PM

as if its not their fault for sucking so bad

3/31/2006 5:41:26 PM

Nick Swardson has a writing credit on it... so it could be something. Probably not an awful lot, though.

3/31/2006 5:57:02 PM

He wrote Grandma's Boy and Malibu's Most Wanted. What, exactly, are you expecting out of him?

3/31/2006 6:08:08 PM

Just finished screening this. was much better than i was expecting. i actually found it really, really funny. especially if you are a nerd like myself, some awesome "cameos" and just general nerd paraphenalia. all around, very enjoyable and funny

^^Grandma's Boy was funnier than Wedding Crashers...that is a VASTLY overlooked comedy in my opinion

i heard through the grapevine that kid rock is having a private screening of benchwarmers after his show in raleigh (at raleigh grande)...may just be rumors though

^ kid rock did not end up watching it tonite, since he saw it last night after his last show....


i thought grandma's boy was hilarious, but wouldnt say it was as good as wedding crashers....

and i was a bit let down by Benchwarmers...and i didnt even have a high expectation

4/8/2006 2:57:24 AM

THIS LOOKS HORRIBLE

4/8/2006 3:08:32 AM

rob schneider is...THE CARROT

4/8/2006 11:41:54 AM

honestly i've been billing this movie as napoleon dynamite 1.5

it doesnt get a 2 because the movie looks like it has the potential to be that bad

Wedding Crashers > Grandma's Boy > The Benchwarmers

I really like the Wedding Crashers, and I really liked Grandma's Boy, and I thought The Benchwarmers was pretty funny. I really think they may have ruined some of the stuff from the trailers, but at the same time, I laughed at a lot of the random violence from the trailers.

When I heard about The Benchwarmers I thought it had a good possibility to be an hilarious movie but wasn't sure about the cast selected. But after seeing it last night, it was pretty funny.

And if you're a Star Wars fan or into random old Sci-Fi shows, just seeing the house in the movie should make you want to see it. That house had more impressive Star Wars memoribilia than I've ever seen in one house, haha. I was suprised by all of the references they made and stuff, but after seeing Grandma's Boy I should have expected it.

based on saying you like a movie with Spade and Schneider... I veto your ability to comment on movies

4/8/2006 1:23:32 PM

I've never been a Schneider fan, but I have liked a few of Spade's movies.

Off the top of my head:
PCU
Tommy Boy
Black Sheep
Joe Dirt

And if you don't like those movies, then you probably aren't a fan of comedy movies, hence you should probably get out of this topic based on a comedy movie.

And this is the first movie I've enjoyed that Schneider has had a significant role in.

I said it was good, not great. Meaning I'll catch it when it comes on TV, not buy the DVD. But if you're looking for a solid laugh(and don't want to see a bunch of little alien things) then this is a pretty good one to check out.

4/8/2006 2:39:25 PM

^but wouldn't you say that tommy boy and black sheep was for the most part the same movie?

4/8/2006 3:53:08 PM

They had a lot of things in common, but both are funny in their own right. And Spade was good in both of them.

I was trying to say that though as of late Spade has sucked, he has had some comedy hits in the past.

You didn't mention Heder, and I actually liked him the least in this movie. Schneider and Spade do a pretty good job, I really wasn't expecting much out of Schneider though so maybe that's why I thought he did a good job.
