I'll always think of that Quote when I think of The Wedding Crashers! Personaly, I thought it was funny but 10 Minutes too long.
Finally saw it last night, GREAT movie. One of the funniest I've ever seen--right up there with Old School and Office Space. I thought the dude who played the gay son was great, as was Vaughn's crazy girlfriend (who pretty much was the same person as an ex-girlfriend of mine, right down to the feeling me up at the dinner table with the whole family there). "You know, it wouldn't kill you to play some competitive sports once in awhile..." "WOULD THAT MAKE YOU LOVE ME?!?!?!" The grandmother was also great!!
In the last week, The Wedding Crashers has passed the following movies this past week and currently sits as the 86th highest grossing movies of all time: Pretty Woman Tootsie Top Gun There's Something About Mary Ice Age The Bourne Supremacy Crocodile Dundee Apollo 13 Home Alone 2: Lost in New York Elf National Treasure Air Force One Rain Man The Matrix Beauty and the Beast Tarzan A Beautiful Mind Chicago Three Men and a Baby Meet the Parents Universal Pictures Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Hannibal Catch Me If You Can Big Daddy Batman Returns Man, there's some pretty big guns on that list. It has made $178.5 Million so far and was 4th for the second straight week. It has now been out for six weeks. Pretty impressive.
Saw this last night. Maybe I had low expectations, but I laughed my ass off. The ending was, as other said, weakly executed, but that wasn't a deal-breaker for me. Vince Vaughn was brilliant.
When this comes out on DVD, maybe there will be alternate endings. The ending was the only part I didn't like that much. Reading this thread reminded me of how much I loved this movie. So many good lines, but one I don't think I've seen quoted here is, "Go out there and get some strange ass!" My husband didn't want to go see this movie. I'm hoping once it comes out on DVD he'll watch it. Everyone should see this movie. I agree with whoever put it up there with "Office Space." I would also put it up there with "Raising Arizona."
Saw it with the wife last night and we both enjoyed it alot. I think it was funnier than Old School, but only just. I just about fell out of my chair during the motorboat scene and personally felt that the scenes with Ferrel were well done.
Since my last update, The Wedding Crashers has moved up to #58 on the all time highest grossing movies list and is currently the third highest grossing movie of 2005 (War of the Worlds, Star Wars VI,) having passed Batman Begins this past weekend. The movies on the list it had passed since the last update: Batman Begins Terminator 2: Judgment Day Charlie and the Chocolate Factory The Mummy Armageddon Gone With the Wind Pearl Harbor Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Madagascar Toy Story Men in Black II Grease Gladiator The Day After Tomorrow Mr. & Mrs. Smith Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Dances With Wolves Batman Forever The Fugitive Ocean's Eleven What Women Want The Perfect Storm Liar Liar Jurassic Park III Mission: Impossible Planet of the Apes Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom Hitch Here's some interesting news, too: From thedigitalbits.com... New Line has officially announced the DVD release of Wedding Crashers for 1/3/06. There will be two versions... an R-rated theatrical edition and a 9-minute longer Uncorked edition (SRP $28.98 each). Each will include anamorphic widescreen video (the Uncorked edition will also be available separately in full frame). Among the extras to expect are audio commentary with director David Dobkin, another commentary with stars Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, deleted scenes, 2 featurettes (A Crash Course in Wedding Crashing and Event Planning), the Wedding Crashing interactive game, an "interactive soundtrack promo", The Sights' Circus music video and the film's teaser and theatrical trailers. The Uncorked edition will add the 99 Red Balloons scene and "test audience reaction to specific scenes." And while not the official version, I got my Wedding Crashers DVD today from a friend. I don't ask where he gets these things, but the quality is really good, not one of those ones where a fella takes a video camera into the theater. This is an actual copy of the film on DVD.
So at first I read this and thought, "Are you kidding? That sailing scene brought the film to a complete standstill." And then I thought, "Oh, right, MOTORBOAT." Funny movie, but 40-Year-Old Virgin was sicker, and funnier. I have spoken.
