I just watched the Murderball trailer on imdb.com and it looks cool. I'll have to check it out.

The best movie I've seen this summer is Crash. Not your typical summer fare, but it was a great movie.

Tim, I really don't think we need to know that you molested the guy that has been stalking Jessica! Jeesh, that's rough. :lol:

I heard a review on NPR's Fresh Air where they reviewer went in with a lukewarm attitude, and said that it was hilarious, the writing is terrific and a non-stop stream of funny lines, the kind where you're laughing so much you miss the next joke. Definitely a must-see when most comedies are pretty lame nowadays.

Wedding Crashers was pretty funny, I'd recommend it.

How bout Bad News Bears?

Saw it on Monday, pretty d*mn funny. I was pumped as it was rated R instead of PG-13 (which they didn't go overboard since it had a higher rating) but I questioned it because they (VV and OW) have done a lot of movies together and usually after you have done that many together with success, you start to mail it in. But it was pretty funny. Not as funny as Old School but still one of the better comedies I have seen in the past couple years.

What movies have they done together? I thought it was Luke Wilson in Old School (that's what I took the Old School comment to be leading at). I've never seen an Owen Wilson/Vince Vaughn movie.

I guess I meant to say that whole group of actors that some call the "Frat Pack" which consists of Vaughn, Wilson Brothers, Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller and Jack Black.

IMDB lists Vaughn and Owen Wilson as both being in:

Starsky & Hutch
Zoolander
And some movie in production for 2006 called Outsourced.

Im not sure if you could really count Zoolander as a film with the two as vaughn had less than a miniscule part. Wasnt he just one of Zoolander's brothers?

I was just looking off of imdb.com, I really didn't put much thought into how big his role was.
