I think Kevin is a talented, funny, and incredibly insecure fellow with no self-censor. He doesn't have a publicist, or anyone else around to take his mike away when he starts in on another obsession. He wants everyone to love him, and takes every criticism personally.

I enjoy his movies, more or less. Cop Out might be my favorite of those he's directed.  I thought it was a brilliant, tongue in cheek send up of the uneven buddy cop films of the 80's and 90's. I keep coming back to Tango and Cash for some reason.

Granted, I snuck into it immediately after seeing the technically perfect but tedious Avatar, so maybe I was in the perfect mood for some shoddily put together laughs.

The film brings to mind a Zappa quote about "putting the eyebrows" on certain songs or compositions, there's scenes in Cop Out that may as well have big groucho brows at the top of the screen, waggling at you.

Just listened to this one, and I don't know which was weirder, the fact that I was actually hearing eating on-mic again for the first time in ages or the fact that you guys were non-ironically talking about renting DVDs from Blockbuster. The times they are a-changin'. Were a-changin'. You know what I mean.
