The movie
Show notes
“My mouth hurts from smiling and laughing!” 😂 This week, we are crashing the party for the 2005 hit comedy, Wedding Crashers! Join us as we dissect this hilarious film as part of our 'Best Buds Summer Rewind' series(7 of 10). We kick things off by declaring the 2000s the Golden Age of Comedies, running through a massive list of classics that prove our point (Zoolander, Anchorman, Superbad, The Hangover, and many more!). Are we wrong? With a $40 million budget and a whopping $280 million worldwide gross, Wedding Crashers definitely smashed the box office! We dive into its respectable 75% critic score and 70% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Are Jeremy and John really best buds? We unpack their 12-year wedding crashing history and try to pinpoint when their friendship truly solidified (maybe back in high school?!). We discuss the hilarious chemistry between Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, and how Vince's fast-talking delivery truly makes the movie. Plus, Isla Fisher's "crazy eyes" and Christopher Walken's scene stealing performance! We explore Bradley Cooper's role as the "great heel" and the perfectly sprinkled-in genius of Will Ferrell as the Funeral Crasher, too much or just enough? Did this movie spark a real-life wedding crashing epidemic, or was it always a thing? Have you ever crashed a wedding? Don’t miss out on our staple segments like the Retro Ramble Question(super powers), Stale Popcorn and Gum Under The Seat(Die Hard vs Lethal Weapon)!
