Yes Man
 
Is anyone going to see/interested in this?

It's based on a book by British author Danny Wallace where he basically spends a year saying 'yes' to every single question he is asked.

The book is absolutely hilarious. The film however stars Jim Carrey so it could be a big pile of shit on a stick.

I already saw it when Liar Liar came out about 10 years ago

Very very bland movie. One single joke where I did anything other than smirk mildly.

Jim Carrey is good actor but never heard of this movie.So I think the movie couldn't be excellent.

I have no interest in thismovie at all.

Jim Carry is the most unfunny person on the planet.

DrA 12-27-2008 12:32 AM

Jim Carrey is pretty good though.

I can't wait til they get to the part where he says yes to the penis enlargement supplies.

The one question I was thinking about this whole movie was how come there weren't more people exploiting these psychos. If that seminar were real, I'd be standing outside asking people to rob banks for me.

Although this didn't happen in the book (to my recollection) he does "say yes" to an african prince who is having trouble getting his cash out of the country.

Think I'll end up passing on the movie tbh. Although I appreciate that they've only used the book to form a general idea rather than full adapting it I just don't think the film looks any good.

I do however implore you to buy/read the book cos it is truly funny.

So a co-worker say it over the holidays and she said it was really funny. Had her in tears of laughter even. I called bullshit. My opinion hasn't changed. Still no interest.

DrA 12-30-2008 03:36 PM

I do that sometimes as a practical joke, where I tell someone that a really unfunny movie was hysterically funny to the point that I was in tears. They then go see that unfunny movie.

XL 12-30-2008 05:37 PM

I'll remind you again that the book is hilarious. Go read it Goddamnit!
