Is the Hobbit just an extension of Lord of the Rings? I saw it has that turdball Orlando Bloom in it. If so, definitely not seeing it.

A few parts where you're kinda wanting them to just move on to the next scene, but overall it was pretty entertaining.

Steve Carrell doesn't disappoint in this movie. Whatever that SNL chick's name is, the one who plays Carrell's moronic counterpart, plays the part well and they feed off of eachother. The only one thing that is kinda disappointing and is prob a big reason sequels (esp in comedies) aren't as good as the orig is because the orig was all about the character development etc. In the sequel you already know the characters so there isn't that first initial gotcha moment. There's a lot of "I Love Lamp" and that kinda shit from him.

But if you didn't like the first one, I wouldn't see this in theatre. If you liked the first one, then it's worth seeing. Not as good as the orig as the cliche' saying goes...but I enjoyed it.

I loved the first one, but I'll probably wait till this comes out on BR.

The trailers didn't do much for me, biggest laugh I got out of them was when they said Carell's trailer never cashed a paycheck in 5 years or something like that!? Hilarious

Went to see it last night and I thought it was really good. Maybe not as good as the first one but I laughed alot. Of course I like stupid humor so that makes a difference. Definitely recommend it.

Holy Jesus was this movie a shit fest...

It was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. If I hadn't driven there with a group of friends, I would have walked out. Steve Carrel was an abortion, and the chick they paired him with was somehow even worse. Their entire roles were basically a Napoleon Dynamite and Deb ripoff...except without the humor.

It's pretty obvious that 90% of the movie was improv, but it was like the director had them shoot every scene three times and then just went with it regardless of the fact that there was nothing funny about it.

I love Will Ferrel, but everything about his comedy in this movie has been done 20 times before. How many times do I need to hear him say some zany variation of "Great Ceasar's Ghost" before that horse is declared dead?

Its two hours of these guys saying random stupid things and hoping for a cheap laugh. I absolutely can not fathom how anyone could find this movie funny.

I'm being told Will Smith and Drake make cameos...?

Both opinions fully expected, and probably equally valid.

Envision being unexpectedly tickled, and vaguely disappointed simultaneously when I finally get around to seeing.

It was not great by any means. But the movie was entertaining.

Movie was way too long. They could have cleaned up a lot of crap to make it flow more nicely.

"By the bedpan of Gene Rayburn" was my favorite one-liner.

oh and another thing....Meagan Good has a FANTASTIC ass. DAYUM.

She has a fantastic everything imo.

Sounds like this movie needed a better edit job. Noticed it's like 20-30 minutes longer than the first.

I hate when they let scenes and jokes drag on too long. For instance, the longer cut of Talladega Nights was 20 minutes longer and was nearly unbearable with scenes they dragged out.

Not disappointed at all. Great sequel.

That is probably the best way to describe it. After seeing the previews and Ferrell doing car commercials I wasn't expecting much if anything so I was pleasantly surprised and I like I said I like stupid funny. I was watching Scary Movie last night and I still laugh during that movie.
