Convince someone to go with you.

They'll enjoy it just as much as you will.

It's that good. :nod:

The soundtrack is amazing. :drool:

I have a new favorite movie: One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest. This movie is absolutely incredible, I highly recommend it if you want drama, a critical view on society, or just a could laugh.

Just ask someone to go with you, or go with your mom :P

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

Intern Academy is possibly the funniest movie I have seen in a long time. It's definately the best comedy I've seen this year. Go see it. You will be so glad you did.

That's because it's Canadian. Very little media attention. :nod:

Take Dave Thomas (SCTV, Strange Brew) writing, and a load of major Canadian comedy stars who haven't done any big work in a long time (Dan Aykroyd, Dave Foley, Matt Frewer [american, but still worth mentioning], Dave Thomas) and you've got what should be one hell of a movie.

I definately want to see it.

I'm reviving this thread again. :P


So this is the year of awesome comedies. It started with Dodgeball and Anchorman being surprisingly funny. Then Intern Academy was a underdog but one of the best comedies I have ever seen. Now there is Shaun of the Dead and Team America. Both are worth every penny. I nearly fell out of my seat laughing. Both of which I have to see again, and buy as soon as they are released.

Shaun of the Dead = instant classic. I loved it. So, so much.

Team America: World Police is only puppets. I mean, do I really need to continue? Them walking was hysterical. I laughed so hard that it hurt.

Has anyone seen either?

one flew over the cuckoo's nest is a great movie, but...the book is so much better. it's sad to keep sayin' that all of the time.
