TOM GREEN IS FUNNY!
Tom Green *IS* funny.... the problem is that scripted screwball comedies are *NOT* the venue for his humour.

He wrote and directed this screwball "comedy" (and I use the term very, very loosely) so if it's not funny, it's his fault. I think he's a monumental waste of screen space, be it big or small screen, and agree wholeheartedly with those who hope this failure puts an end to his movies.
I know that sounds bitter and cruel, but there is a movie out there that wasn't made because this one was.

The film doesn't open till weekend, guys. Lets wait till its released and the box office information is released before deciding whether its a 'failure' or not.

Whether or not he wrote it is irrelevant - scripted comedy is not the proper venue for his humour.

Screwing a dead moose is just soooo funny.
MTV should shoot all it's non-video shows, crappy rappers and teeny poppers, and get back to partying like it's 1985....
DGH
Your right - it is. But not nearly as funny as people driving by wondering who the hell this sicko is who's sodomizing road kill.
J.
I would argue that he's not funny or talented at all. And his writing and directing for himself a movie that is "not the proper venue for his humor" doesn't exactly prove me wrong. It also means he lacks judgement, among other things.

It just means we long for the days of his public access tv show - no other show within the last 5-6 years has come close to being as funny.

All this Tom Green talk has got me wondering if anybody remembers the rap group he was in? A bunch of geeky white kids from Brampton or Hamilton or wherever the fuck he's from, formed a rap group named Organised Rhyme. In answer to your inevitable questions, yes they sucked! They still their one video on Much Music up here sometimes...good for a laugh.
Jeez, how could I forget that? "Check the OR, you like it so far...check the OR, you like it so far?" He's from Ottawa, by the way.

Of course they 'sucked' cause they weren't a 'real' rap group. It was for laughs.
Ever listened to the lyrics? Funny shit.

All right, everyone needs to realize that the "humping the dead moose" segment is not the only thing Tom Green has ever done. Some of his stuff is downright hilarious, such as the time where he painted his parents' house plaid, when he lay in a crowded sidewalk for about 5 hours without moving, and even the whole thing with he and monica lewinsky. Granted yes some of his stuff is crude but I think he's a funny funny guy, and I think this movie could be great.

Isn't it funny though how once you hump a dead moose, people just don't seem to forget?

My personal favourite was when he dressed up as a girl and milked a cow with his mouth. I was fuckin' dying. Get the glue, get the glue!

I've seen some funny shit from Tom Green. Literally. Like the time he took a dump and picked his log out the toilet and paraded it around the set of his TV show. Some dude in the audience touched it and immediately realised it was real shit (he made a funny face). Then there was the time he beat the hell out of some cow heads and mixed their brains with some styrofoam to make a 'boat' out of it. Both were funny segments, but they were really crude. Not that i mind crude.
Tom is merely shock value. He'll wear off. Hopefully soon. If his movies goes to shit, it will help to speed up the process.
Now your talking.
Remember the one where he took a dead raccoon and put a cell phone in it. Then he called the phone and the first person to run out of the audience, open the carcass, remove the phone and answer it would win a free 'cruise'. And after one girl did it, he hung up the phone at the last second. Wow. Classic bit.

And there was always 'I got a bag-a-milk in my pants'
No, no! Send him to the sun. At night. Possibly out of a cannon?
Please, everyone who hasn't allready, read Roger Ebert's review right now!!! Here's the url to ebert: www.suntimes.com/ebert , from there, you'll be able to find it. It's funny stuff, and let me tell you he aint that positive of the movie. :)

That movie was really hit or miss. Sadly the best stuff was in the commercials. I think Ebert was being unfair in giving it No stars because it was about on par with Scary Movie but I guess since Scary Movie was a parody of recent movies it deserved the three extra stars over a movie that worked off a blank sheet. Go see it if your a real fan of Tom Green. But otherwise either wait for it at the video store or pass all together.

I have to admit that I mark out for that "Daddy would you like some sausage?" bit, however.
