I just saw a preview for "The Love Guru" MEGA-LOLs!!!

Like everyone, I'm a huge Mike Myers fan and I rate the 3 Austin Powers movies among the finest American comedies of the past century. However, I even I have to admit that his performance as a clueless but sexy British man was getting a bit stale. Which is why I was thrilled when I heard about The Love Guru, in which he plays a clueless but sexy Indian man!!

Anyway, I just watched the preview, and this has to be the funniest Myers movie yet. You see, right at the beginning of the preview, it shows the name of the town the Indian guy is from. Can you guess what it's called?

Harenmakeester.

Get it?

HAIR-IN-MY-KEISTER!??

KEISTER means BUTT.

He lives in a town called HAIR-IN-MY-BUTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:puke:

Not.

God, that movie sounds horrible beyond imagining.

Mike Myers (and his movies) are funny! I love the Austin Powers series and I think this new one looks so funny! :rofl:

I've seen the promos with Vern Troyer being tossed around the ice. It just looks extremely stupid.

Of course, I can't wait to see "Mama Mia!", so perhaps I shouldn't rag on other people's tastes. :-)

for different folks, I guess. I love Mike Myers, and I am no interest in seeing Mama Mia.

:)

Different strokes, indeed. It would be a boring world if our tastes were all the same. :-)

Mike Meyers --- notsomuch.

BTW, I think the Austin Powers movies were stupid and I don't expect Love Guru to be any better.

Mamma Mia?

I'm going to have to find out what this movie is about...

It'll rake in $30million opening weekend.

Well, guess who shows up later in the film!!

That is some FUNNY shit.

Please, please tell me there's a midget in this - if so, I'll die and go to comedy heaven!

I used to love the TV show and thought Steve Carel was perfect for the part, but the previews I've seen are underwhelming.

I mean, you can't have him at least one time in the 30-60 second trailer have him say, "Missed it by that much" or show the Cone of Silence or the shoe phone?

that the movie won't be that enjoyable, my opinion anyway. I brought the Get Smart series and am in the middle of watching them. I've been laughing my ass off at the stupidity that show has in it. I love it. Don Adams was perfect. It is also interesting to watch some of the other starts that did guest appearances. Then there's the Craw and Zigfried to fight.

Lets hope this year is the end of Adam Sandler and Mike Myers movies.

I thought the Austin Powers movies were insultingly stupid. And can enjoy dumb humor--like
Spinal Tap & Wayne's World.

I mean, I agree, not much can be funnier than pseudo-Indian names referring to body orifices--well, aside from fart humor and the ubiquitous "oh look he got kicked/hit/punched/knocked between the legs"--but come the hell on! Fat Bastard? A dwarf being thrown and kicked around ? Penis jokes? No, no, no, Austin Powers is far from stale. And just imagine the hilarity in two decades, when the 19th installment has old person sex humor!!! Sex in wheelchairs, Geritol, trusses!

I just hope I live long enough to see "Austin Powers XIX: The Spy with the Blue Stiffy"!

It has the same score as the Uwe Boll film Postal and has a worse score than either The Happening or that Sandler film.

Looks like a total shit bomb. They also weren't crazy about Get Smart but i wasn't planning on seeing either.

"Which might sum up “The Love Guru” in its entirety but only at the risk of grievously understating the movie’s awfulness. A whole new vocabulary seems to be required. To say that the movie is not funny is merely to affirm the obvious. The word “unfunny” surely applies to Mr. Myers’s obnoxious attempts to find mirth in physical and cultural differences but does not quite capture the strenuous unpleasantness of his performance. No, “The Love Guru” is downright antifunny, an experience that makes you wonder if you will ever laugh again."




As Austin Powers would say, "Very ouch, baby."

And Verne Troyer?

Enough already.

I wish both Mike Meyers and Adam Sandler would just go away.

Smells kinda like coffee.

The gods just have no tolerance for that level of disrespect.

You know it has to suck out loud.

And I LOVED Austin Powers ...

Bake

between how hard they try to bring in those first day dollars, and how little they expect to be able to bring in as the word-of-mouth reviews get around.
