'Cuz it's KILLIN' ME!

Oh no, frats! If you weren't interested in a frathouse comedy (which I don't think this actually is, for what it's worth) then why'd you go see it?

Flunchy runs a pretty well-regarded film blog and was probably obligated to review it, so this argument is invalid.

I will disagree with him, however, this is much less of a drat comedy than Old School or Animal House. It's also much darker than I expected, especially when Efron's characters starts "villaining out". While it isn't quite the masterpiece of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, it's much better than the borefest that was Five-Year Engagement.

Also, Efron is a talented actor and I keep waiting for him to have a decent role.

I haven't seen the rest of the films on this list, but the fact you said Hot Fuzz and This is the end are astoundingly funny, yet this sucks poo poo should be on the posters.

What?

That said, it does go to some surprisingly dark places, and most of that is on Efron's shoulders, and he completely pulls it off.

That's not the best picture, first of all. The comedy mask has a `fro which is hard to make out in that shot.

It looks like a rebus puzzle, but the obvious answer (Firecracker - pizza = frecrcker) doesn't make sense and I can't figure out which synonyms would work in place of firecracker or pizza.

Is the comedy mask supposed to have a black `fro? A Jew `fro? Is the comedy mask supposed to be Jewish comedy? Seth Rogen himself?

Might help to know what the text at the top says. Looks something like Galiwarg Time/Inn.

Googling up "410 N. Fairfax" leads to a clothing line called "Golf Wang" so that's probably it. No idea what the rebus means.
