“Disgusting. Offensive. Stupid”
Something tells me that only one of those words describes Postal.
Posted by Joel on August 26th, 2008you missed the most important one!
Kenny vs Spenny: Season Four! I picked it up this morning at Future Shop for 18 bones. Also, last week Bromwell High quietly hit DVD.
Posted by Goon on August 26th, 2008You should review Postal, Sean. I think that review would be very entertaining.
Posted by Matt on August 26th, 2008I’ll see what I can do. I do want to see it, I just don’t want to pay for it.
Posted by Sean on August 26th, 2008I just saw Postal.
I didn’t pay to see it, but I still want my money back. There is no fucking way in hell that the House Bunny is worse. Anyone defending it is trying for some hipster ironic bizarre defense, or is simply a liar. Sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks. Not even offensive, just lame shit.
Forget what I said about renting it, don’t go anywhere near it and never trust a word out of Marina’s mouth about any comedy, let alone movie, ever again. It’s that bad.
Posted by Goon on August 26th, 2008Yay! Postal. Gonna get me that fo sho!
Posted by Swarez on August 26th, 2008But… it comes with the Postal 2 video game!
Posted by Sean on August 26th, 2008didn’t I do a review of the game?
