This isn't a battle of nationalities here. This man is just a black hole decency. Anything good gets sucked into it and is never seen again. But I also think his wife is a real bag of shit too. "If I spend too much time with the kids it doesn't suit my personality." Make them stop.
It's pretty cool if you pretend this video came out first and then Will Smith made the Fresh Prince video later as a parody of THIS one. It's like you said, it's just not funny, and can be added to your theory about the delicate art that is the rap parody.
When a sketch is as bad as the Gilly sketch, I naturally get bored. And then I fell in love with the hot girl in the striped shirt in the background. Therefore, it was one of my favorite sketches.
Things I hated about this video:
1.) Dane Cook (goes without saying)
2.) Pausing the video 100 times to count the amount of people in the room and getting close enough to 20 to say "Yeah, more than 20 for sure" which prolongued my torment,
3.) Horrible jokes that would get nothing at an open mic. "What if she answers?!" 15 years in comedy and this guy's writing jokes we thought of two months in? Riffing on the bookstore? I don't think I'm being over-critical by saying that punchline is simply weak, regardless of who the comedian is.
4.) The "He can even make black women laugh...BLACK WOMEN!" shot.
5.) Gross.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen. It's me, Angelica. We would much appreciate it if you called into our television game show for your chance to win wonderful prizes. As always, take care, and remember, we love you."
I speak Russian.
Don't worry, I'm sure there was a meeting in which the writer and director debated over whether the deaf-gay character should also be a mentally handicapped amputee war-veteran transvestite prostitute baby-murdering novel writer but they found it sort of campy.
Does this video signify the existence or non-existence of the religious deity about whom they are singing? I vote "existence," although you could make a case either way.
Oh, he acts because he likes to "tell stories?" That's impressive, since most actors do it because "Like, whatever, and stuff." Actors are already pretty presumptuous, but this...
Is it just me, or is "The actor in me took over" one of the most obnoxious things a person can say? "If I pee my pants, its OK because I'm a professional actor, unlike you insufferable peasants."
Underneath that gruff exterior, down deep, in the darkest parts of House's psyche, is a man who truly cares. You just have to be willing to look hard enough.
We all know Will Ferrell movies are simply a product of some director going "What would it be like if we put Will Ferrell's comedy in a THIS situation? I bet it would be relatively humorous. Green light that shit. Lunch."
