Ah, this is a solved problem. What you need to do is add an extra engine so that you've got the power to haul that extra fuel.

Then when you get down to a normal level of fuel, that extra engine is just weighing you down, so you can just jettison it. It'll safely burn up in the atmosphere, or land in the sea, or on a vast empty plain, or in a village on the house of someone nobody important cares about.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

You want to know what’s weird, is sitting down to watch Zoolander for a nice good time because you remember it as a fun movie with no surprises, then suddenly being reminded that there’s a Trump cameo in the opening scenes.

I hate Ben Stiller enough that I've never seen Zoolander. I think the only movie of his that I really enjoyed was Royal Tenenbaums and that was really in spite of him not because of him

Is it good in spite of him?


I feel the same way about Judge Dredd in spite of Rob Schneider

IDK how you can hate Ben Stiller. He's just... normal.

But yes, Zoolander owns. Even if you don't like the dumb guy premise there's like 40 other people in the movie all knocking it out of the park around him.

Deuce Bigalow 1 and The Hot Chick are two of my mom’s favorite movies and hell, she ain’t exactly wrong. Great “shut your brain off and laugh at the dumb poo poo” entertainment.

Rob Schneider was never funny and coasted on the coat tails of equally unfunny Adam Sandler.

Sandler is so much better when he's actually acting in a dramatic role. Like, I wouldn't recommend Uncut Gems if you have any sort of anxiety issues, but he puts in a really solid turn there.

My favourite "not popular but great fun" movie has to be MacGruber.

Malaise-era Sandler where everything is filmed on Hawaii because he wanted to go to there.

To be fair, if someone said "here's (x) million dollars to go do some minimal effort work in Hawaii with all your mates, and no one will have the power to tell you off for coming to work late or hungover or just not showing up at all" to me, there's no way I'm turning them down.

I can recommend this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clickbait-remover-for-you/omoinegiohhgbikclijaniebjpkeopip it replaces the thumbnail of all youtube videos with a screenshot from the actual video

Also this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/blocktube/bbeaicapbccfllodepmimpkgecanonai
It removes youtube videos with a specific word in the title/channel name. I've used it to wipe Mr.Beast out of existence on my computer. I've never watched his videos but I got annoyed by the stupid faces he made in every video that kept popping up on the front page/recommended. So with this plugin you can just unperson someone 1984-style.

This is what I see when I search for "mrbeast"(thumbnail plugin not installed):

I will go to bat for Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, and The Waterboy as funny Sandler movies, but yeah, anything "comedic" since Waterboy has been incredibly dire.

MacGruber is a hidden gem. The scene where he fucks his ghost wife while squealing pathetically was so unexpected, my wife and I were in tears.

E ^^^ yeah, I revisited a few years ago and Billy Maddison holds up with a bit of cringe. I couldn't even get through the other two. YMMV but if you loved a Sandler title when you were 13 just enjoy your ignorance.

You also don't really get big budget big name draw comedy anymore. It's action comedy or family comedy or some remake of an actually good comedy or a Marvel movie with Paul Rudd in it.

Might just be my old man glasses but zoolander harks back to a time when Hollywood gave a poo poo about making movie that were just meant to be funny and weird. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of good comedy out there, just doesn't seem to be a wide enough net to stand on its own without dudes in costumes punching each other.

I really do miss the days of Zucker Bros./Mel Brooks movies, and wonder whether it's that the audience's tastes have changed or nobody can even do that style of comedy anymore.

Imagine a satire about the modern political landscape with the tone of an Airplane! or a Blazing Saddles. That sounds vomit inducing.

I watched it a couple months back for the first time in 11 years and man I was dumb in 2010 when I said it wasn't that good. Or 13+ months of staying home has really lowered my expectations for what constitutes a good time. Either way, I'll take it.

Ever think about how weird it is that they had a whole movie dedicated to making GBS threads on male models? I’d never thought they were enough of a cultural force to do so. Zoolander is fun though.
