Wasn't this some producers kid having their dad pull a bunch of favors or something? then they made a dogshit movie because they didn't know what to do
It only had a $6 million dollar budget and it made $34 million. If anything it was actually a pretty clever gimmick of just getting a bazillion actors to do cameos in a lousy film full of random sketches so that you can list all their names in the advertising. I mean hell we're talking about it now 10 years after it was made aren't we? A completely mediocre film, that made a mediocre amount of money at the box office; but the insane cast still draws attention.
i just found out a few weeks ago that bob odenkirk directed this. i liked it about ten years ago, it was funny. i think it was on netflix for a long time
>It does seem that many of the stars tried to jump ship. Farrelly's strategy was aggressive accommodation. "Wait them out. Shoot when they want to shoot. Guilt them to death." While the canny – Colin Farrell, South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone – managed to wriggle out, and others resisted altogether ("Frick off" was reportedly George Clooney's response), some could not escape.

It wanted to be the next Kentucky Fried Movie, and it had some fairly funny skits. But the framing device "movie" was fricking terrible.

It’s actually Gere isn’t that weird? Found that out the other day, just felt like sharing
The Chloe period scene was good

Sketch comedy was very popular at that time and a bunch of morons thought this would be good. The Hugh Jackman neck balls is a WKUK tier sketch.
humiliation ritual

It had some value.
The greatest pleb filter of the 21st century
>entire point is forcing elite Hollywood actors to do the most embarrassing and degrading shit of their whole careers

Homeschooling is actually a totally serious representation of what goes on with Schreiber's kids.
he tipped his hand there
is that the angry chef guy?
I feel like this movie only exists via Dollar Tree and thrift stores. I've never seen it on store shelves but I'll find STACKS of them at the two.
