Only because he took the role away from a celebrity impersonator who could have done the role better, and because of what a terrible person he is.
Casey Ryback
he went Full R*

did you really critique a non actor's cameo?

Love me some Farrelly Bros. films. This and Dumb and Dumber gets lot of love, but down the line, you'll also want to check out Kingpin and the often overlooked, Hall Pass.

Well, it's not like his role was very big or demanding π I think he came across as a grown-up Eagle Scout who became a football player pretty accurately.

Bad Teacher is hilarious! π
Casey Ryback
takes a lot of training

My suggestion for a February romance is 1978's "Heaven Can Wait".

I knew she would love Healy π

Very funny movie, 8.5 out of 10 for me. π It's kind of like the National Lampoon's Vacation version of a rom-com (even down to jokes around a little dog). I think of the Ben Stiller movies I've seen, I'd put this one third after Tropic Thunder and Dodgeball. (And on a trivia note, Cameron Diaz and Matt Dillon had been in a relationship for a few years before this started filming. )

Brett Farve could not have been much more wooden in his acting role; as a matter of fact I think a literal 2 x 4 from Loweβs would have been able to play the role with more acting chops and charisma than Brett did

This film features the performance of W. Earl Brown as Maryβs brother. W. Earl Brown is the most famous theatre department alumni from my alma mater (although Chrisell Strause is up there) and Thereβs Something About Mary was part of his big break. He also played the cameraman for Courtney Coxβs Gale Weathers character in the original Scream

Bah! Didn't mention this before and I was gonna let it slide but not-commenting made my brain itchy. Joan Jett actually released two versions of Roadrunner: one in 1986 on the "Good Music" album,and another previously unreleased version in 1997 on the "Fit to be Tied" album. Both are good versions but to me the 1997 version is far better. Ok, I think I'm done heh

You're lucky you watched the theatrical release. Whatever happened in the extended snake scene would've made you squirm. However, I must tell you that this lunar new year is the year of the snake. In Chinese culture, the snake is associated with wisdom, intuition, and mystery. It's also said to represent calmness and introspection, which are traits that can help guide life with wisdom and grace.

oh GOOD! I kept waiting for the snake to make another appearance!
Luis Fernandez
Oh... and Joan Jett did a cover of "Roadrunner" which is definitely worth checking out.

The snake had a lot more screen time in the extended version, just be glad you didn't watch that one π

The singer/guitarist is Jonathan Richman, a great musician who was the founder of the group The Modern Lovers and later had a nice solo career. Check out "Roadrunner" by The Modern Lovers and "That Summer Feeling" by Jonathan Richman if you aren't familiar with his music (beyond this movie). The drummer is Tommy Larkins, who has been a long-time Richman collaborator.

...and speaking of Cameron Diaz, I also suggest My Best Friend's Wedding (1997), Charlie's Angels (2000), the Unrated version of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003), the Unrated version of Bad Teacher (2011), Sex Tape (2014) and Back in Action (2025). #MoreCameronDiazForAddieCounts

In case you're all wondering which version Addie is watching, then it's the theatrical release that's 1hr 59min long.
Alex Tan
Speaking of Ben Stiller, I also suggest the Meet the Parents trilogy, the Zoolander duology, Reality Bites (1994), The Cable Guy (1996), and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2014). #MoreBenStillerForAddieCounts

Happy Monday, Addie! I hope that you had a great weekend. π This is a great movie! One of my favorite Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz films. For more great Ben Stiller, I very highly recommend the "Night at the Museum" trilogy. Looking forward to watching this reaction later this evening. Have a great day today! π
Alex Tan
Happy Monday, Addie. I'm so glad that you enjoyed the theatrical cut of There's Something About Mary (1998). Now I really need to watch this movie. BTW, today is my girlfriend's birthday.
