Re: Mystery Men

I watched this years ago and didn't much like it. I just didn't find it that funny (except Geoffrey Rush's villain I think). So... now I'm torn over whether I should watch it again before listening to the commentary or just go ahead regardless.



Well that was painful. I can't believe this cost almost $70 million. The only joke I remember smiling at was the Superman/Clark Kent gag with "That doesn't make any sense, he wouldn't be able to see!" The problem I have with it, aside from the crude and predictable nature of almost every joke, is that neither the characters or the world they inhabit seem remotely plausible. Most of the actors ham it up to the point where you can see they're trying to be funny, Stiller in particular is desperate, and all of it's utterly childish rather than witty.

Re: Mystery Men

I remember seeing this in theaters as a kid for the sole fact that Kel was in it. What the fuck ever happened to him?

Re: Mystery Men

As I say in the ep, I think he had a show on...BET, maybe? Could have been MTV#, but it was like a breakdancing competition show. I used to catch it flipping through channels.

Re: Mystery Men

In an alternate reality, Ben Stiller directed this movie, with the same cast, and the same budget, and the same sets, and the same script, but with a different DP and a different editor. That movie was a huge hit and spawned four sequels.

And I would have loved it.

This thing? Not so much.

Re: Mystery Men

I thought about watching that before. You just gave me major incentive. Time to stock up on booze.

Re: Mystery Men

Kel looks great, but he doesn't get a lot to do.

Nia looks really great.

Booze will be helpful.
