It's real nice of Will Ferrell (sp) to take this guy under his wing and co-sign him. It really is. I love underdog stories.

It was nice of Judd Apatow to put him in Pineapple Express (IMO, the weak-link in Apatow movies). No sarcasm, really.

I saw "The Foot Fist" way, and really, it was cool. Real original.I dug it...even though it took 2 sittings to finish it.

Underrated/underdog worshiping should cease, though.I hope he's not seen as "the next genius", because at best, he shouldn't upgraded beyond "supporting role".

He's pretty one-note.

That's all.

But I know what you are getting at.

co-sign

Big ass co-sign and "Foot Fist Way" is great too. He may be recycling similar stuff at this point but those stand up.

His career's been defined thus far by a series of supporting and cameo roles and a possible career-defining role on a sitcom that's lasted all of 6 episodes (so far). So whom exactly is bigging-up Danny McBride like that? If the answer is "the media," well... they are paid to hype people up, yes?

Or is this yet another thinly-veiled attack on alleged "PTP Hipsters?"

Let's listen

"Foot Fist Way" was aight.

"Pineapple Express"...Franco stole the show. McBride was cool.

"Tropic Thunder"? He was barely established...too early too phone something in.

good character? Granted, but "the next comedic wonderkind"? Hell...no.

Really, I'm more offended you called this "thinly-veiled" lol

>"Tropic Thunder"? He was barely established...too early too
>phone something in.

in the scenes he was in, he was very funny...he doesn't control how prominent his character is tho

>Underrated/underdog worshiping should cease, though.I hope

>shouldn't upgraded beyond "supporting role".

I have NEVER heard him being referred to as such by ANYBODY. Not on this board or anywhere else.

I'd say they are on the same level. McBride might get a notch above because of Eastbound and Down.

This post seems to be overrating McBride so that it can hate on him.

dude is just starting to do his thing and you are already coming with the overrated label??!!??!

fall back.

he's funny on the reg
has good cameo's on the reg
and i even hear he smokes weed on the reg

whats your problem?

>he's funny on the reg
>has good cameo's on the reg
>and i even hear he smokes weed on the reg

before hand.

Lol

As far as funny guys who seem to be good going "johnny on the spot", and being spontaneous, he's a solid B+.

I like the guy.

And as many nay-sayers have, and will, appear on this post...I'd like to be the first to say...this guy is FAR from some up'n coming "genius".

Yep, I said "genius".

w/r/t Danny McBride.

so whatever you're arguing against, you're arguing all by yourself.

Danny McBride is funny, what is this post?

I said he's not a genius.

I'm sorry, but wtf are we accomplishing here?

and if you don't know about him completely stealing an indie hipster romance (from, if you knew shit about film, was directed by the same dude that did Pineapple Express, so really it's a DGG connection to Pineapple Express more than it is a Judd Apatow or Will Farrell connection) with only about 5% of the screen time, then you don't know shit, son.

you might have a point. But it does, so you don't.

but so far, the pub he's getting?


And I like the dude.

He's no Jim Carey.

LOL

disregard this post

It's like someone pronouncing judgments upon Eddie Murphy when all they've ever seen is Best Defense.

It's real nice of Joe Piscopo (sp) to take this guy under his wing and co-sign him. It really is. I love underdog stories.

It was nice of Stephen Herek to put him in Holy Man (IMO, the weak-link in Stephen Herek movies). No sarcasm, really.

I saw "Vampire in Brooklyn", and really, it was cool. Real original. I dug it...even though it took 2 sittings to finish it.

Underrated/underdog worshiping should cease, though.I hope he's not seen as "the next genius", because at best, he shouldn't upgraded beyond "supporting role".

He's pretty one-note.

That's the majority, I'd assume.

I suppose Eastbound of whatever is his tour de force?

If I saw Eastbound, you'd prob be saying the same thing about Foot/Fist.

Stamp: Wrong.

he's in almost every scene and KILLS it. Also, and I do realize this is MY opinion but...

McBride > Carrey

And I wasn't a Jody Hill fan at all until EB&D.

Overall I find McBride to be funny, but EB&D shows his true potential as a comedic actor, because he has to find ways to work in more than just the "asshole guy" routine-- he has to ACT. And he does so beautifully.

if the person that made this post see Eastbound and Down and then likes it, but still feels McBride's other work is shoddy, he is still entitled to feel dude of over-rated. Not saying I necessarily agree with the poster, but one show isn't enough to out weight the fact the poster doesn't like the majority of McBride's work.

He just said that the work he's seen isn't enough to justify the props McBride gets... which is a pointless statement when you haven't even seen the work that he gets the most props for.

is the best character on tv PERIOD



sayitwitme.blogspot.com

lmao @ never seeing eastbound.

he's about to get fucked up with some truth.

You dare me to slam this post in a trash can?

*pow*

I laughed so hard that I had to rewind it about five times to just keep seeing that moment. Damn.

it's like he breaks something once an episode before he walks off frame.

when he broke that kids craft project in the classroom i died.

"I made dinner for y'all and this is how you do me?"


My favorite is when he's laying there against the toilet dying and Seth Rogen is trying to amp him all up and shit and saying "Aren't you fuckin pissed? Aren't you pissed at Ted?"

"Yeah..I guess I'm pretty mad & stuff"


shits hilarious.

1. Pineapple Express is the funniest fuckin film since School of Rock.

2. McBride stole the shit as Rico, stunt coordinator extraordiannaire, in the 2nd funniest film since School of Rock.

1. School of Rock isn't a benchmark in terms of great comedies
2. Even still Pineapple Express is still nowhere close as good as School of Rock (McBride was the only good thing about that film though)

1. Yes it is
2. No he wasn't


so there

where Rogen seemed completely out of his element playing "strait man"...

pretty boy Franco stole the show, and McBride was cool.

again, he's no Jim Carey>

To me that was the funniest film in quite a while. As I said previously, I think School of Rock is the funniest film of the 200Oughts but I think Pineapple Express is 2nd.

I thought Seth Rogen was just fine in it, I think McBride was insanely funny, and I thought the pairing of Corrigan and Robinson was brilliant and I wished there would have been more of them. I thought the subplots of "the Chinese" and Dale's highschool-age girlfriend were great and I though Bill Heder stole the show at the beginning.

I think Gordon Green was just fine. I'm unfamiliar with anything else he may have done so I don't know if this is his A-Game or not.

Oddly enough...even though I think he was rock solid and won't detract from his performance in any way...I think Franco was not as great as most have given him credit for. My one complaint would be that Gary Cole could have been given much funnier stuff to do. It should be a criminal act fro a screenwriter or a director any time he's misused in a film. James Remar could have been gievn more as well.

Corrigan certainly needed more screen time

I could've done w/o all this

I've only seen Snow Angels but I met him at that screening & he seems like a cool dude. I just added All the Real Girls to my Netflix tho.

Seriously? Cause I couldn't stand Franco before I saw this movie & I thought he killed it. I mean I went to Western so I know some stoners just like Saul. He nailed that performance.

My one

Yeah I expected much more from him as well. He's hilarious.

n/m

i know not many watched it, but his role was hilarious.

I ctrl+f'd "Hot Rod," which wasn't in that reply. carry on.

the best part about the DVDs was knowing that the parts with will ferrell would have great blooper reels afterwards. craig robinson barely held it together during the good take of that "this came to me in a dream" scene.
