A highly enjoyable film
No blockquotes, but Bro Namath and Bro Montana pretty much had me ROFL. The Rush scenes were also great.

I’m definitely looking forward to seeing it this week. Of course I’m always Rushified.
The Basil Fawlty Moderating Strategy:
"We could run a nice blog here if we didn't have all these members getting in the way."
solid movie. kind of convinced me that Paul Rudd should only be a supporting character, not a leading man, because the interactions with Karen Phillipelli (or whatever her non-Office name was) were kind of painful sometimes… but still, I laughed a lot. and really, when I go to see a comedy, that’s what I want.
Idolizing Robb Nen since 2002...

I agree. Rudd is too much the supporting, comic relief, sarcastic-type. Dude should stick to the type of role he played in “40 Year Old Virgin”.
Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s hilarious, but not enough of a presence to maintain a leading role.
Stupid is as Ruben Rivera does...
That being said I think he was perfect for this role
The awkward sidekick to Segal’s lead
I couldn’t help but feel for the guy
Tommy Lasorda HATES GIANTSBOARD.COM
Awesome
Jason Segal (the guy from How I Met Your Mother) steals the show IMO…
Jonathan Sanchez. He's left-handed, like Barry Zito. His fastball breaks 80, unlike Zito.
Yes.

A buddy of mine wants to see it. “We got to go see it this weekend!” Me: “So, we’re going to have a man-date about a movie about man-dates? I think we’re crossing that fine line.” But it’s a movie my wife won’t see, so…. yeah. Man-date!
Don't think, it could only hurt the ballclub.
be careful of the awkward
reach for the popcorn at the same time and the hands accidently touch. right about that time a barry manilow song will come on, your eyes meet. its a magical moment.

Just don’t poke a hole in the bottom of that popcorn.
You probably know it as MYANMAR, but it will always be BURMA to me!

**WE DESERVE**
"They can trade me," Bonds said. "I don't think they will, though. It's not like I want to be traded, man. I'm a Giant. I'm stuck here till the end."
My brother and I call each other Joben every time we see each other now.

I saw it with my buddy, and we both thought it was awful. They just overdid the awkward attempts at slang/catchphrases/etc. by Paul Rudd. The “slapping the bass” part was watch-glance inducing.
Segel was decent in it, as was Dangle from Reno 911. Rudd is just starting to wear me down, though.
Billy Ripken is not a fuck face
Fifty Dollar Ice Cream
Before we saw the movie, my wife went next door to Cold Stone Creamery to get an ice cream. I wanted to break a fifty so I gave it to her and went inside the theater. She lost the change. That better have been the best ice cream she ever ate!! Outside of that, I really liked the movie. I agree that Segel steals the movie. Some good people were wasted there though, like Jamie Pressley and Andy Samberg.
Goodbye Jack Taschner. Now Bochy has to find another reliever to make him look dumb
I really liked...
Segel’s Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane t-shirts. Coupled with the fact that his character is a big Rush fan, that tells me he is musically “literate” and should be respected.
WTF
Not only did I just see , for the first time in my life , a commercial after a clip but a combination commercial/movie trailer?

the Judd Apatow crowd is kicking ass right now ...
40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Superbad, and now I Love You, Man
somehow these movies constantly stay different from most of the rest of Hollywood’s crap – in fact, they all include cultural commentary often making fun of the rest of Hollywood’s crap – I’d give I Love You, Man a 4 out of 5 just for keeping the tradition
It had a main social satirical point (the effeminate metro-sexual straight guys our feminized culture is producing, how bad they suck, and why regular, masculine guy behavior/friendship is not only ok, but kinda necessary for your life not to blow) and at the same time managed to stay completely hilarious
Favorite scenes -
- every single scene with Jon Favreau (playing the man’s man character who absolutely hates Rudd’s guts the whole time – you can feel his hatred seeping out of him every scene they’re in together)
- being stuck having to play golf with the girls
- Jason Segel’s toast
- Rudd’s realization that “I need to get some f—king friends.”
"Those boos really motivate me to make something happen." - Bonds
