Ted

I laughed my ass off. Granted you need to like "campy" type humor... and can't be easily offended by vulgar and cheap comedy. If you like Family Guy, are a bit of a nerd, enjoy stuff like the 60's Batman TV Show... you will probably enjoy this movie.

Definitely aimed squarely at men between the ages of 25-50.

Definitely felt like a Family Guy show, with the whole "remember when XXXXXX happened?" *immediate cut to the event, hilarity ensues*

it was enjoyable, had a lot of funny parts. but i felt like the movie suffered from things the studio probably required him to add to broaden their target audience (aka the rom-com scenario betwixt wahlberg and kunis).

SPOILER ALERT!

Though nothing not exposed in the trailers.

Without the romance between Wahlberg and Kunis there is no conflict... no reason to get rid of Ted.

Hence no movie.

That aspect is a key part of the movie.

I think you are in the minority (of people who actually saw the movie).

The theatre I went to was packed... and the crowd was laughing out loud the whole movie.

I'll have to check this film out, the trailer made me think of Paul, which was a decent enough film.

This was a very, very disappointingly awful movie. I mean...I had an idea of what it was going to be like going in, and I thought it would be funny. It wasn't really that funny. I wouldn't recommend this movie at the $1 theater (if they even still have those).

And Mila Kunis, who used to be freaking hot...isn't, any more. Or maybe her makeup was bad or something. She was like the 6th most attractive woman in the movie.

It's so hard to like Mila Kunis, because I hate Meg Griffin, and it's not even for any reason other than the fact that the rest of her family hates her too.

I saw two movies I really enjoyed this week, for utterly different reasons. "Ted" and "Best Exotic Marigold Hotel". I haven't seen two movies that good in the same week for years and years.

On the down side, I also caught for the first time about 5 inutes of the Halle Berry Catwoman movie on TV. Luckily I managed to reach the "off" button before my brain was paralyzed.

Woodruff's a "There's a gross chick in that movie." kind of guy.
Jones is a "There's five chicks hotter than Mila Kunis in that movie." kind of guy.
