Trailer: Farrelly Brothers Still Trying

From iwatchstuff, Back in the day, the Farrelly Brothers were the brains behind Kingpin, Dumb and Dumber, and There's Something About Mary (hell, I even liked Outside Providence). But since '99, we've gotten Shallow Hal, Me, Myself & Irene, Osmosis Jones, Stuck on You, and Fever Pitch.

The trailer for their latest, The Heartbreak Kid, with Ben Stiller and Rob Corddry is now online. Another turd would bring them closer to irrelevance, but regardless of what happens, they'll probably be hearing drunk idiots slur quotes from their movies until the day they die.

On another note, anyone else think the blonde chick, Malin Akerman, looks a whole lot like Hannah Hilton? Or possibly a cross between her and Joey Lauren Adams? Look, Malin, if that is your real name, all I'm saying is that you're generic looking.

Of the recent batch he lists, Osmosis Jones is the only one I’ve seen. Hated it!

Why, you ask? The live action parts. They were super gross without being at all funny, and Bill Murray’s character was just the worst human being imaginable. Kind of like if Homer Simpson if he was decartooned.

There’s a scene in which his 12-year-old daughter attempts to talk him in to going on a hiking trip. This is because she’s worried about his health, due to his comically bad eating habits and the fact that she’s already lost her mother.

In the face of this, we’re meant to laugh when Bill presents the alternate plan of going to a huge barbecue festival and his daughter, clearly crestfallen, gives in. Hated it!
