All these uploads have been great for me, a guy who never watches movies but wants to know what I should think about them

Will needs more recognition for segments like this. The part where Carrell’s character “blows ropes into his Dockers” made me laugh so fucking hard it triggered a fight with my housemate about the noise-level LOL

I’m increasingly convinced that Felix should make every movie

oh "resist" i get it i get jokes

1:58 Jon Stewart directing a movie for Amazon, of all companies, would be a tragedy - but from what I've read, Amazon had nothing to do with making it.

Kept getting reminded of Swing Vote while watching this. That shitty political comedy from over a decade ago where Kevin Costner plays some country bumpkin whose vote ultimately decides the presidential election. Just the most painful Obama-era vaguely hopeful nonsense. Really think there's something to the theory that Jon Stewart wrote this while on The Daily Show.

Chapo should review the forgotten political comedy “The Campaign” with Zach Galifianakis

There's going to be a MILLION of these fucking establishment lib political movies accrued over the next ten years. I'm honestly shocked they let Sirota write one.... But I guess climate change activism has been deemed "acceptable" dissent. It's going to need its own Netflix category.

I, for one, would be _fascinated_ to see what the holy trinity of Greta Gerwig, Saoirse Ronan and Timothee Chalamet would do with Porky’s.

Bullworth has a very silly premise, but many astute points of how corrupt our politics and society had become. The Candidate starring Robert Redford I think is the best political movie that really represented the true nature of a campaign.

as someone who was born in MN and lived in WI growing up i fucking loved their descriptions of the two

Just a tip, if you're trying to impress wisconsinites by drinking domestic beer, order a pbr or miller not a budweiser.

Lol it generated 470k in revenue. Maybe Jon just felt like lighting a production company’s money of fire

The posters for this movie are a indicator that the studio knew they had a piece of shit. They're all the worst kind of bland, cheap crap they have some intern whip up because it's not worth spending real money on. I do agree with the notion that this script was cobbled together from bits and pieces that Stewart had been hanging onto throughout his Daily Show run. Bits or observations he couldn't quite work into the show that never took off his bulletin board. It's too bad because his directorial debut is a fairly decent little piece of work. No great stakes but it definitely seemed like he might develop into a solid filmmaker one day

the wisconsin vibes are all the way off in this movie. first of all wisconsin towns dont have german sounding names or architectural themes, but the movie takes places in a bavarian looking tavern in a town called deerlachen. The town would either just be called "Deer Lake" or something french like "Fon Du Lac" "Portage" or "La Rue." Or of course something native sounding like Pewaukee or Sauk Prairie. There's a joke about poutine, we don't eat poutine. Nobody here eats poutine. There's lots of jokes about people in wisconsin still having literal phone company dial up. That's a dead giveaway that the movie was written in 2006 because that's about the time Charter started taking Wisconsin as an early market before it became the telecom giant "spectrum" it is today. Jon Stewart sent someone to Wisconsin in 2011 when the right to work thing happened and thought "I know literally everything about this culture now"

When I heard "Bullworth", my first and only thought was the Rockstar game Bully.

Alexander Payne also directed best jurassic park sequel. Only 90 minutes of dino action is merciful

Hey acid, can you post the American Sniper review sometime soon? I can’t find it

36:20 this isn’t just ‘like something out of the Bush era’ it’s literally a parody of an ad that Bush ran…in 2004. Timeless comedy, right there.

Holy shit how does Felix know so much about my great state of mn. Eden prairie to Edina, that’s insane. He’s has to have lived here

Even Stephan used to make me giggle and I feel so ancient.

Here’s to finally subbing ! Thanks for the uploads gang

13:20-13:35 did these guys just forget about the electoral college? The reason why right wingers won the last presidential election is because of the fact that they are spread out more, they cover more area, it isn’t one person one vote, it’s which ever side covers the most districts is the side that wins the whole state.

To his slight credit, at least from the limited amount I've seen/heard, he _seems_ to have at least somewhat re-found the thread (if he had the thread to begin with #brilliantcallback #gottem). I'm thinking specifically of his somewhat recent interview with Jamie -demon- Dimon in which he passive-aggressively (and far too respectably/under-confidently unfortunately) pushes him on the actual content of socialism, ie transparently obvious decades-long class war. Maybe he was overtly embarrassed by this ep. In fact, he definitely was, let's go with that cuz it's funny.

God I always love the MN jokes

Done with Jon. Don't hate him, but he's not on point anymore. Also, he could have made a podcast here on youtube and now he's working for Apple. Heartless corporate empire. Cashing in. Not like viacom is admirable. Time for sweeping changes, not status-quo.

I think the Chapo Boys got Havana Syndromed at the ending of that movie.

Bro thank you for all this, we don't deserve you

There's really no scene in any comedy that can't be made better with Bill Irwin.

1:07:07-1:07:36 “you would put a 22 into the other person’s head if you gave a shit about the things you profess to believe in” I think that’s why libs believe they are superior to “radicals” they think the fact that they don’t care makes them better because “hey look at us we get along and we can work together” but they fail to realize or care that them working together doesn’t accomplish any good. - - Another possible reason why the Libs think not caring is good is the far right; the far right cares about their convictions and the outcome of that is them consistently disenfranchising the rest of the country (the logo for project Red Map was literally an America that had no blue sections on it, the people they disagree with had no representation)

Why does Mackenzie Davis look noticeably more animated than everybody else.

this is great, but man these guys always think that rw twitter and qanon facebook are actually the content that the RNC pushes. Even like Blake Masters or Kari Lake or something make very anodyne campaign ads.

48:06 delightfully devilish

I love you guys and I'm drunk 😂 just kidding about the first part.

Ayy an Edina shout out

21:48 lmfaoooooooooo

19:31 Americans will be like, "This man is a comic genius " and it's just a guy who crosses his eyes and gurns a lot.

Vinny Beedle Hell yeah

Sasso is fire 🔥

Hey I worked on this

25:31 protect the least WHERE???????

50 Year Old Virgin would have been more for our times.

This was a bizarre movie ngl

Anachronistic

I wonder if they'll give Don't Look Up a view. Basically the same shitlib takes on politics as this. And about as funny.

Bulworth is a shockingly racist movie on re-watch. Practically every character is some kind of racial stereotype.

Leave jon stewart alone!

John Stewart was never funny. His entire schtick in the 2000s was just playing a clip of George Bush and then stopping it to make a goofy reaction face for a few seconds. Bush being elected was the best thing that ever happened to his career.
