Fun fact: the script was co written by Alexander Payne (holdovers, sideways) and was meant to be a more serious drama that was respectful to the gay community. But when Adam Sandler and happy Madison became involved they forced rewrites to make it the movie it ended up being. Payne ended up disowning the final product and even tired to take his name off of it.
I was wondering how the hell he got involved with that of all movies. I would have liked to see that version. It would certainly be better than the shit we ended up getting.
It's really sad to see that happen to a respectable filmmaker. Sort of reminds me of David Fincher and his version of Alien 3 getting chopped to shit by studio oversight and casting a negative light on his skills as a filmmaker until he redeemed himself with Se7en.
Honestly even if they stayed pieces of shit, it could be funny if they made them the butt of jokes. Like everyone around them is accepting, and they’re like the only 2 homophobes in the movie.
@@isaac__it's a play on "pronounce" as used in a wedding (i now pronounce you husband and wife" vs. pronounce as in how a word is said. so he's implying that the title is in reference to a new pronunciation of the phrase "chuck and larry" as opposed to the actual implication of a marriage.
Do Scott Pilgrim vs the World! I feel like there’s so much to talk about regarding the plot, one-liners, cast, soundtrack, score, and the original source material.
imo besides the whole scott dating a high schooler thing (and even then his friends in the movie all give him a ton of shit for it) the movie aged well, especially the editing. while i was watching it i had the thought that this movie is the closest thing we’ll get to a hollywood produced youtube poop
@@lawnshark025 scott dating a high schooler didnt age poorly from a writing standpoint because it was portrayed as a gross thing by literally everyone else in the movie. like the story could totally do without it but its there to solidify from the start that scott sucks
i have never seen this movie but i am FLOORED that glaad was cool w this oh my god i’ve been writing a big paper about how straight men view gay men and how it depends heavily on gender roles. based on description alone, this movie checks EVERY SINGLE BOX of how gay men are portrayed and stereotyped by straight men constantly. the belief that gay men are hypersexual, violent, scary, and view other men as sexual objects (the way many straight men see women as sexual objects) is INCREDIBLY potent here. i actually was looking for examples of media where these stereotypes are portrayed so thanks for that😭
Wow, time for the second longform TH-cam video I’ve seen discussing I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry and framing it in a modern context! This is great so far, would also recommend people check out Evasive’s video where she made a room full of gay guys watch it and provide running commentary. It’s a legitimately excellent watch
I think my favorite part of this movie was when I was watching it, at 1am on Tuesday, Dignan crawled through my screen!! He ate my doritos and then said "if you tell a soul, I'll steal your sandwich too ;)" and then jumped back through the screen.
Boy oh boy where do I even begin. Dignan … honey, my pookie bear. I have loved you ever since I first laid eyes on you. The way you drive into the paint and strike fear into your enemies eyes. Your silky smooth touch around the rim, and that gorgeous jumpshot. I would do anything for you. I wish it were possible to freeze time so I would never have to watch you retire. You had a rough childhood, but you never gave up hope. You are even amazing off the court, you're a great husband and father, sometimes I even call you dad. I forvever dread and weep, thinking of the day you will one day retire. I would sacrifice my own life it were the only thing that could put a smile on your beautiful face. You have given me so much joy, and heartbreak over the years. I remember when you first left for Detroit and its like my heart got broken into a million pieces. But a tear still fell from my right eye when I watched you win your first ring in hive mind feud , because deep down, my glorious king deserved it. I just wanted you to return home. Then allas, you did, my sweet baby boy came home and I rejoiced. 2015 was a hard year for us baby, but in 2016 you made history happen. You came back from 3-1 and I couldn't believe it. I was crying, bawling even, and I heard my glorious king exclaim these words, "HIVEMIND, THIS IS FOR YOU!" Not only have you changed the game of basketball and the world forever, but you've eternally changed my world. And now you're getting older, but still the goat, my goat. I love you pookie bear, my glorious king, Dignan. 🥰❤️🫶🏽
@@Camothor10 i still think a discussion on it would be super entertaining and interesting. This series doesn't only have to be about movies that aged poorly, i think a good balance of still beloved classics, awfully aged movies and still beloved classics that aged awfully would be best
I wouldn't bet on it, because I don't know how comfortable they're gonna be with navigating the ethics of RDJ's blackface. Even if I don't think it's necessarily hateful (because the joke is that he's trying to method act blackness and it's treated as a bad thing that none of the cast has patience for), that's really not for white people like myself to speak about publicly with any kind of authority.
would love to see you guys do this with old TV shows too (ex. friends, how I met your mother, that 70s shows etc.) they’d take more commitment, but I feel like they’d be harder to judge and it would be interesting to watch!
Thanks for making me have a dream where you guys made a secret Hivemind event that was supposed to be found by solving secret messages placed throughout your videos, and that I somehow stumbled upon it whilst being completely naked. The event had you guys there and only one other dude. Everyone was chill though
Billy Eichner and Alia Shawkat would be hilarious in the context of a scenario flip like Graydon was saying! They both have comedy chops from very well done and influential modern comedies (being Parks and Rec and Arrested Development) and have shown that they are good at absurd comedy and more tongue and cheek wordplay, and watching them poke fun at straight stereotypes would genuinely be hilarious, they're both individuals who I feel could gracefully tow the line between irreverent and satirical and have the talent to be in lead roles!
if i were to recast this movie it would be a romcom where the two guys would fall in love with each other and i thought that was such an obvious answer
27:04 This is so funny to me because I watched a movie with this exact premise earlier this week! Also, if yall are interested in reviewing an Adam Sadler movie that aged even worse, I highly recommend Jack and Jill.
Ive returned as an adult who had never seen stepbrothers who watched it after your video, honestly it was pretty funny and i didmt really feel like it aged poorly
You guys convinced me to give Step Brothers another try! I’d like to suggest you do a movie about autism, since it’s acceptance month. Maybe Rain Man? Appreciate you two.

I knew this movie was gonna have aged like milk but holy shit. The movie’s understanding of homosexuality is that either you’re 100% straight or you’re 100% gay. Wait until they find out about bi people.. Are y’all aware of a movie called Loqueesha? It’s an independent movie that came out in 2019, and it’s also about a straight white man pretending to be a minority in order to get benefits. It’s about a white guy who pretends to be a black woman to get a job as a radio host. The writer and director is also the star. I have unfortunately sat through the whole movie and it’s even worse than Chuck and Larry. Proceed with caution
I could have clicked on moistcritikal’s new video “Arrested for Illegal Butt Injections” but I saw this video didn’t have any views yet so I thought I would do you guys a favor
recast for Graydon's proposed new version: Janelle Monáe and Rob Halford. i know they're not actors and also have a 40-year-age difference but like think about it ok you thought about it its pretty good right
Pls watch Blast from the past with Brendan Fraser, It’s about a boy who grew up in a fallout shelter. It has some great moments and weirdly I think aged well, I think you guys would love it and it would make a great episode in this series
man, I used to watch this movie all the time when I was like 12-13. It was one of 'those movies' you always seemed to have laying around on DVD, so you just kinda watched 'em regardless of whether you really liked them or not. I had forgotten nearly everythintg about this movie. I didn't expect it to age well, but holy hell this is *bad.*
watched the evasive video on this that included queer men (idr if it was specifically gay men or not) reacting to it. very excited to see the real ideal audience (straight guys with an arguably homoerotic connection) react to it. EDIT: my favorite lavender marriage movie is probably the wedding banquet by ang lee. has its own problematic aspects but WAYY less bad than i now pronounce you as chuck and larry

@@sushiinyourface293many such cases
bullshit
I feel like I'd remake it by making them simply actually fall in love, just a classic fake dating situation idk
when Riley was describing the plot I thought this was the way the story was going
@@SaL.641 same😭 but then I remembered it was a 2007 comedy movie starring Adam Sandler and Kevin James
Honestly even if they stayed pieces of shit, it could be funny if they made them the butt of jokes. Like everyone around them is accepting, and they’re like the only 2 homophobes in the movie.
and even with the original premise, there is a way to make this movie well, it involves not letting 2007 Adam Sandler consult on the script.
To say this movie hasn't aged well is to suggest that it was ever good in the first place, which... just isn't true.
To say your comment is untrue is to suggest that, well you’ve said something wrong… which is true

W analysis Kait, for real
How do u know what straight men think 😭
kait big brain take as usual yuuup
only 2 in and this is easily one of my favorite series you guys have ever done
The recast has to be tryoe Sivan and Renee rapping
Would be so sick if they filmed a watch along before these reviews, maybe even just for the PATREON

forgot to say but my fav part of step brothers is "i smoked pot with johhny hopkins in high school"
