As good or better than past roasts
7 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
This brings back memories of previous roasts, especially reminded me of roasters like Greg Giraldo, Anthony Jeselnik, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman, etc.

The comedians and athletes did a great job of roasting Tom Brady. My top three were Nikki Glaser, Tony Hinchcliffe, and Andrew Schulz, who were incredible and reminiscent of the comedian roasters I listed above.

Sure, there were parts I didn't like, I don't know that any show or movie that exists where I liked 100% of them, but that wouldn't make me give less of a star. For example, I wouldn't give movies like Pulp fiction or Goodfellas less of a score because some small parts were a little slow, because as a whole, they were incredible.

That's the same reason I'm giving this a 10. Because as a whole, all three hours, were amazing. While some parts were a little slow and i wanted to fast forward but couldn't since it was live, I haven't laughed that hard at anything in a long time.

A couple of people who got on stage were dull and one special guest Ben Affleck was particularly angry, but I couldn't believe how funny it was. It was just like back when Greg Giraldo was ripping into everyone without mercy. I actually think now Nikki Glaser could give him a run for his money, and that's saying something.

The Con is On (2018)
5/10
going for ridiculous. nailed it
8 January 2023
The point of the movie was that it was supposed to be absolutely ridiculous and dry humor mixed with satire. I think it hit the mark perfectly. Still pretty ridiculous and dumb, not a great movie, but not as terrible as some people are saying. I think that the movie could have been a lot better, but could also have been a whole lot worse. Not really a huge "con" so I think the title should have been better. I think that some parts were hilarious, whereas other parts were just okay. In terms of plot and action, it was very underwhelming. Not funny enough to call a comedy and not cunning enough to call a "con". It just IS.

The Prince (2021)
8/10
Comedy is supposed to push boundaries...

It's obvious it's just making fun of the royal family as a whole, and clearly isn't meant to depict them accurately. It really IS Family Guy meets The Crown, and I found it hilarious. It's like people don't understand satire anymore...
