Watch Us Watch | Shallow Hal
🕑 Added 2025-05-23 22:00:06 +0000 UTCOhhhhh no.
Inspired by the bits that didn't age as well in Just Friends, my sister Jillian & I are continuing our educational research into whether or not various 2000's movies could be made today by watching a movie we KNOW has to have aged like milk.
Shallow Hal asks the question "what if larger people deserved love?" and it doesn't really answer that question so much as just keep asking it. Starring Jack Black, Gwyneth Paltrow in a f*t suit, and George Costanza, this movie would certainly be difficult to rewrite and make work in 2025... but I do think it's possible! Maybe!

very bad, very very bad. matter of fact it's nearly unwatchable. But I'm so rom com brained that Jack Black's little win the girl back speech at the end made me tear up. Worst movie to ever make me cry. And this movie IS BAD!

not joking when i say that watching this movie was one of my first memories. i was a small small child with pneumonia in a hospital room, absolutely miserable, watching george costanza's tail wag.

I like half agree with you about jack black cause he definetly styled himself to be goofy but sometimes I see pics of him when he was younger and am surprised by how conventionally handsome his face is. I think ppl talked abt him like he looked like seth rogan or jonah hill (sorry lol) just cause he was fat and goofy but he truly has like a pretty face when you ignore the expressions hes making and his haircut. I think thats what ppl mean when they say he was always hot, like he really does have a suaveness about him that is often overlooked because of his weight

What if I told you one of the directors of this fucking thing, Peter Farrelly, has more Oscars than Martin Scorsese, David Lynch and Alfred Hitchcock COMBINED.

wasn’t expecting to ever pop my shallow hal cherry, but here we are. while we’re on the subject of fat, we need a big fat liar track!!

The woman on the right Hal was dancing with at the club (the one you said looked like a scary witch/Horror Nights character) is Bonnie Aarons, the actress who plays The Nun. So you weren’t wrong! Credited as “Spastic Friend #1.”
