  1. Umm, I have a masters degree. I have been on two different campus for undergrad and grad. I am aware of the parking permits etc. I'm sure they could have ended up in jail in a different way. I still believe that it was poorly done and the only reason it was done was to give them a cameo. A lame one.
  2. I'll most likely buy season 5 cause thats when Enos comes back to the show. Sorry, I like Bo and Luke, but I love Enos more. I'd love to see some Episodes of Enos on Season 5 and a few of the cartoons wouldnt be bad.
  3. It was a stupid cameo and I dont recall laughing at all. The movie could have done without that gag which I have seen countless other times.
  4. Sweet. Thats the first time I killed someone with words on a MB. Its not as messy as those damn chainsaws.
  5. Yeah I dont understand why people think the flag sceene was offensive to the flag itself. That doesnt make any sense to me. Would you rather it not be on at all? But maybe thats cause I dont view the flag as some scacred symbol. Its just a flag.
  6. Yeah I liked the flag sceene as well. I thought it was funny.
  7. Just once for me and I think thats all I will see it. I might rent it when it comes to DVD but really this isnt a movie one needs to see in the theater more than once like SW. You can watch DOH on your TV at home.
  8. If it has made 7,478,000 over prodcution costs and this is in its second week then yes I smell sequel. No doubt DVD sales will boost it as well, and I have no doubt it will be released in Nov or Dec. before X mas. SW comes out Nov 4th or something like that, so I can only assume that WB will want to cash in on the holiday season. I wonder how much longer it will last on the top 10 though. Yeah the fall is typical but I wonder if next week it will fall to 6. Who knows. Has it been released overseas? It will be interesting to see how much the movie makes. But yeah...I believe a sequel is coming. ***EDIT*** Dont forget...... It cost $53 million to make, with an additional $17.5 million paid in an out-of-court settlement to a group of people who held rights to the underlying "Dukes" TV show. I just wanted to point that out because I had forgotten about it. Still it should make back that money.
  9. I'm sorry but I find that a little ironic. MTV doesnt want to offend anyone..yet has anyone seen their programing lately??
  10. Its his job to talk smack about stuff. He's trying to make jokes..and lets be honest..there are a ton of redneck jokes that can come out of DOH.
  11. Ok, I have to confess I loved that part of the movie. Espically when the angry white mom flipped em off. I died laughing. It was a nice way to address the flag.
  12. Ok, the only fighting I want to see is men in boxers and in oil. Unless you guys are fat, then no one wants to see it and then you can fight however you like..I just wont watch or take pics.

  14. I dont want the movie to be like the original TV show. I was not expecting a carbon copy. I was expecting better acting and better actors. The plot, as I stated before, was fine. It was like one long episode and had no problem with it...but better actors were needed.

  16. Apprently we watched two different movies because all I saw was a stiff woman giving us a crappy southern accent and shaking her butt. I dont see how that constitutes good acting.....but eh whatever. I'd like to see more of the Enos/Daisy relationship,.....but then I would have to see more of Jessica.....which just sucks... Dolly Parton as Lulu? Ummm. That would be weird, but then again we have a skinny boss. I suppose both Dolly and Jessica could throw their shoulders back alot and show off their boobs.

  18. Yeah lulu would be nice. But would she be fat casue boss isnt? And I dont see how Burt could lovinly call a fat lulu cream puff and mean it. Wouldnt he want a skinny chick...and that wouldnt work if he called her cream puff. More Enos though, and get rid of the facial hair...and get someone else as Daisy.

  20. Almost all of the movies out in the theaters are on the internet now for downloading. Personally, I dont think I could download a movie andwatch it. I have to go into the theaters. I need the THX sound and the big screen. Its not exciting watching something on my 15 inch computer screen. Besides, it will prob be taken down sooner or later.

  22. I went to yahoo and rotten cause those are the ones I tend to go to. Force of habit, nothing more nothing less. Common. You cant compaire SW to DOH. No offence but DOH doesnt hold a candle to SW. There are hardcore SW fans who would poke out their own eyes just to get a glipse of what George is doing on a movie. SW has a huge following with his own massive convention, thousands of websites, hardcore fans who RP and make constumes. And sorry but I do agree with some of the things they said. The action did suck. Jessica does suck. Willie was OK, and a lot think Burt was great but I found him horrid. It was OK, I'm not dead or anything. I'm not wanting those 2 hours backs. I just think it could have been better with a cast that knows how to act. The plot in my own opinion was fine. Broken lizard however....eh..not so fine.

  24. I think Skeleton key will do better than most new movies. What is 4 brothers about? Isnt it an action film...or something. Not mine, but this is the funniest review I have read to date! Executive #1: We need to find something to get us back on top. Executive #2: But no one can come up with ideas that will appeal to teenage boys. All of our scripts are highfalutin' things, like the one Clint is directing. What's it called? Million Dollar Man? Wasn't that a Universal TV series? Executive #1: No, Clint's movie is Million Dollar Baby, and has nothing to do with the TV series. More's the pity. Clint's made a lot of money for us, so we had to let him do it, even though it will sink like a rock. Have you read the script? What a downer. No one's going to see it. But I think you've got something there. Let's do another re-make. Executive #2: How about a French film? We can change the ending to make it happy. Executive #1: Nah. Even with the better ending, too arty. Remember: we want teenage boys. We need car crashes, chases, girls in bikinis, that sort of stuff… Executive #2: What about a '70s TV show? Then we can get some of the dads too, since there will be the nostalgia thing. Executive #1: Right, right. Make it cheap and it's sure to bring in the bucks. What shows haven't been remade? I think most of them have already been done. Executive #2: CHiPs. Emergency! Marcus Welby M.D. The Dukes of Hazzard. Executive #1: CHiPs is perfect, but it's not ours. Neither is Emergency! And how the hell are you going to get car crashes into Marcus Welby? The Dukes of Hazzard is a piece of s***, but that means box office appeal. People love bad TV shows turned into movies. Executive #2: I have an idea - how about making a movie so excruciatingly unbearable that it will make the TV series look good. That way, when we come out with the Dukes DVDs, people will be clamoring for them. Executive #1: Brilliant! But we still need to pack enough people into the movie for it to make back its cost on opening weekend, before word gets out. By the Monday after its release, it will smell worse than three-day old fish. Executive #2: We can hire a screenwriter, although we don't really need a script. Just have him throw something together about a car race and the bad guy, Boss Hogg, buying up land so he can strip-mine it. The Dukes are in the way, so he puts together a nefarious plot to get them out of the way. Then throw in all The Dukes of Hazzard elements. Avoid top-notch talent behind the camera. Hire a virtually unknown director and don't worry about competent editing. No one's going to care if there are continuity problems in the car chases or if nothing makes sense. In fact, why bother? Cut corners everywhere. Executive #1: Speaking of talent, who do we get to star? The originals are alive, but they're too old. Maybe they could make cameos… Executive #2: Foggedaboutit. No one will know who they are. Get two B-list guys whose salaries won't break the bank. Johnny Knoxville as Luke Duke (the one with black hair) and Seann William Scott as Bo (the blonde). Ray Ray and Stifler. Neither can act, so they won't upstage the car. And, let's face it - the General Lee makes the movie. Without the car, you don't have anything. During the TV series, half the fan mail was for that car. Executive #1: What about the girl? The one in the hot pants. Executive #2: Britney Spears? Executive #1: No, she's passé. She couldn't open a movie if it came with a zipper. Maybe if we had made this a couple of years ago. When this movie hits theaters, she'll probably be barefoot and pregnant. How about the "Chicken of the Sea" girl? What's her name? Executive #2: Jessica Simpson. Executive #1: No, not the chick from the cartoon. The one from the reality show. Executive #2: Yeah, Jessica Simpson. She can't act. She looks like a life-size Barbie, with an expression to match. Plastic. Like one of those expensive blow-up dolls. Executive #1: Put her in a bikini and no male under 17 will care whether she can act. Who cares if it doesn't make sense why she's in a bikini. Just get her to undress in every scene. What about the rest of the cast? How about Willie Nelson as the whacked out uncle Jesse. Nelson's long hair and stoned look will be a perfect fit. Just as long as he doesn't sing "On the Road Again." Executive #2: And Burt Reynolds as Boss Hogg? A throwback to the Smokey and the Bandit days? Executive #1: Reynolds? Isn't he dead? Executive #2: Not officially, although his recent films have included a co-starring role opposite a bear and a re-make with Adam Sandler. He probably needs money, so we might be able to get him cheap. If not, we can always try Danny DeVito. He's the right shape. Executive #1: Reynolds looks better in a white tux. Besides, we've already seen DeVito in a penguin suit! (Mutual fake laughter.) Executive #1: Who was the guy who did the title song and the voiceovers? Some old time singer. Engelbert Humperdinck? Executive #2: Waylon Jennings. Executive #1: Yeah, that's right. See if he's available. Get him if he's not dead. And if he is dead, get someone who sounds like him. I want that voiceover to be authentic. That's what we're aiming for - authenticity! Realism! Car chases with jumps that make the bus acrobatics in Speed look believable! Executive #2: When do we release it? Executive #1: August, of course. We don't want it going against anything that could be construed as a quality film. Jettison it amidst all the other garbage, and people will see it because they recognize the name. The only other choice is February, but action films don't do well at that time of the year. Too many people in the north freezing their asses off. Stupid idiots should all move to L.A. Executive #2: I think we've got a winner. A dumb script. A director with few credits. A B-list cast. A cheap editor. A really bad movie with enough action scenes to make a trailer that will get kids to the theater during its first weekend, then sell DVDs of the series. Executive #1: That's the ticket! With luck, this will garner tons of nominations! Executive #2: Oscars? Executive #1: No, you moron! Razzies! © 2005 James Berardinelli
