Author Topic: Team America: World Police (2004) Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 10-15-2004 09:32 PM                     It was pretty good, I guess. It could have been much better and should have been at least somewhat offensive. Still, good stuff, 4 of 5.  |  IP: Logged Greg Davis Film Handler Posts: 96 From: Vista, Ca, USA Registered: Sep 2004 posted 10-17-2004 12:28 AM                     Hehehe... just got home after seeing it. All I can say is its nice that someone has the guts to come out and say what is on everybodys mind. The Kim song was the best, sex scene a little useless. Spoiler The scene where gary says "I cant promise not to die" and than when she says she will sleep with him if he will and he says "I promise i wont die" is classic. Much like the "terrorize THIS!" and "I got my pass - RIGHT HERE!". the 'panthers' and sharks were sweet. NO IDEA marionettes could do that.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 10-17-2004 07:14 PM                  Brad and John: Yous two are two too funny guys that haven't a clue as to what you're spouting off about as to what I have access to as relating to screeners and/or films in general. Please note, that HERE is an eBay seller that will apparently supply anyone with a "screener" copy of this film. GOD FORBID Jacko and his boys and/or eBay should catch on to this scam. Also, PLEASE NOTE: That copy offer is NOT from any of my screener DVDs. Contrary to my (Halloween joke) ID pic, I DO NOT pirate anything. I earn my living in Hollywood/film from the talents and expertise I have and would NOT jeopardize that for ANYONE! Besides, each screener DVD I receive is uniquely encrypted with a code that ya gotta have a "Flash Gordon Decoder Ring" to see. I ***HAVE*** to return my DVDs within a couple of weeks else I will be 86'd! >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Chad Lindsey Film Handler Posts: 38 From: Ada, OK, USA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 10-17-2004 10:10 PM                     Did anyone notice the destruction of the AMC theatre in this film? Is that good or bad pubilicity?  |  IP: Logged Chris Medley Expert Film Handler Posts: 180 From: McKinney, TX, USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 10-18-2004 09:15 AM                        ** Spoilers** The first half of the movie had some very funny parts, even my fiance, whom I had to drag to see it, got a good laugh. The second half, well...it just could have inlcuded the Kim song and maybe the one or two other funny parts and it would have been ok. I thought some of the people in the theater were going to actually puke when Gary was doing his projectile scene. God Bless the F.A.G.  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 10-19-2004 12:32 PM                     damn funny movie. Gotta love that last song at the end of the credits  |  IP: Logged Erika McCarty Film Handler Posts: 21 From: McKinney, TX/New Haven, CT Registered: Nov 2003 posted 10-19-2004 07:57 PM                     I laughed. Hard. But it could have made fun of something more clever than Kim Jong Il's accent. 2/5  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 10-19-2004 10:57 PM                        I laughed too. Probably my favorite line in a movie so far this year: "There is no I in Team America!" "Yes, there is."  |  IP: Logged Greg Davis Film Handler Posts: 96 From: Vista, Ca, USA Registered: Sep 2004 posted 10-21-2004 12:40 AM                     Right up there with "Ok, We'll kill these guys than figure out what shes talking about."  |  IP: Logged Evans A Criswell Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1579 From: Huntsville, AL, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 10-21-2004 10:28 AM                        I saw this two nights ago and was with 3 friends. Seldom did one minute pass where one of us didn't laugh about something. I found the movie hilarious.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 10-22-2004 12:52 PM                       Humm, I couldn't wait to see this movie when I first heard about it, but after reading some of your reviews, and especially the "memorable quotes" on IMDB, I'm thinking... and this is funny, why? Just because they're using four-letter words? Saying vile things? Really? If that's all it takes to champion audiences these days, then Hollywood, here I come! But I think I'll pass on this picture. Swear words for the sake of swear words... I need something a little more substantial in my entertainment.  |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 10-22-2004 02:13 PM                        Keeping with the theme of the flick... I thought Phil, the Philanderer, said he had a 'Flesh Gordon Dickodor Ring'... I plan to see it tonight or tomorrow afternoon. Sounds like I'm going to hate it.. Brad liked it. Phil Liked it. I'm in trouble...  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under! Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 10-22-2004 04:07 PM                        Tim, don't let the language stop you from seeing this. Language is just the blunt instrument of choice in the hands of these directors, who use it to inflict trauma upon every institution in sight. Nothing is sacred here and almost nothing is held back, save for the cuts needed to save this pic's R rating. If the bad words are all anyone's getting out of this, they're not paying attention.  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!

Allthough Matt & Trey are known for their shock value content, often times their work will have a very inteligent subtext, as is the case with Team America.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 10-24-2004 02:46 AM                       Okay, guys, I appreciate the overview. quote: Paul Mayer Language is just the blunt instrument of choice in the hands of these directors... If the bad words are all anyone's getting out of this, they're not paying attention. Paul, we have similar views on things, so that's all I needed to hear. I'll check it out. Thanks.  |  IP: Logged
