You know it lol, I've seen all of them except Chasing Amy, I can't find that movie anywhere lol. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back still remains one of my all time favorites as well. I haven't seen Jersey Girl though.

Mallrats has been pretty much the story of my life these past few years as well, there's nothing else to do in this boring ass town I live in lolol. Anytime me and a friend want to chill, the same question always gets asked. Where should we go? What should we do? And it always inevitably ends up being, hey lets go to the mall and walk around and talk to people, there is always someone we know there.

Eww...I'll never watch it again.

Jimmy doesn't deserve to clean Conan's chair, let alone sit in it. He's not funny at all and is a complete moron.

Oh well. I won't be missing anything...since my son was born, I haven't stayed up late enough to see Conan anyways.

EDIT: I'm a douche, I read you wrong. I thought you were hating on the Kevin Smith movies. In fact you were giving them props.

Actually though, I don't know many people that DON'T like those movies.

Fallon is a serious douche. Horrible choice, IMO.

Mattyk · 05-13-2008, 01:05 PM

I guess I'm alone in this but I liked Fallon on SNL. Should be interesting to see how he makes the transition to a late night host.

Im with you Matty I loved "your companys computer guy"

jsarno · 05-13-2008, 08:20 PM

Minus Matty and pfunk, I am unsure of why people dislike this guy so much. I thought he was a riot on SNL, and I loved fever pitch.
I'm not saying he's a stud or anything, but just unsure why people dislike him.

HAHA! Great call. I love that episode.

Ever seen the movie Taxi?

I actually liked that movie!

Granted, it wasn't laugh out loud funny or anything but when they play it on FX I'll watch it.

To me Fallon comes across as the class clown in senior year or freshman year of college; Getting drunk and telling jokes he thinks is hilarious and everyone else is ready to stand up and punch him in the face.

I don't like him too much. I put him in the category of, "Bearable in small doses".

IMO Jimmy Fallon is overrated. His fake laugh doesn't seem genuine, his hair annoys me, and he was just lucky to have musical talent and have taken over Adam Sandler's role on SNL.

Ditto on both points. Does he do any writing? Conan was pretty bad as a personality at the outset, but he knows funny, which helped him come into his own.

I smell disaster Fallon isn't remotely funny, please don't give him his own show!

What a funny coincidence! That episode is on right now on Adult Swim. Who do you think you are Fallon, Carol Burnett??

I keep trying to envision him doing a monologue of even three jokes and it doesn't seem like a great idea.

Jimmy Fallon was the best they could do? Captain Ahab is funnier than Jimmy Fallon.
