This was one of those movies where I laughed so much I only really remember a select few bits.
Seeing it a second time: I thought it was even funnier.
Some of the dialogue, even for "stupid comedy," is so insanely quotable.
I also loved picking up on little bits I didn't notice the first time, such as in the first encounter with the motorcycle gang [SPOILER]where Depp throws out "If they're cops, I'm DEA."[/SPOILER]
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION - INOCA 2012
I'm actually quite excited about seeing this. Granted, most of the excitement is physical in response to Channing Tatum's body, but still. Nice to be surprised every now and then.

Tatum's whiteboard full of 4s had me laughing quite a bit. I'm not sure how I felt about some of the more meta stuff, like Nick Offerman's speech or playing Straight Outta Compton while Ice Cube is on screen.
But it's a lot of fun, and it's much more Pineapple Express than it is conventional rehash.
Though between this and the new American Pie, I'm not sure how I feel about this emerging trend of movies about people my age growing old.
Going to see this today. I never watched the tv show, but judging by the trailer, I'm expecting it to be similar to that Will Ferrell/Mark Wahlberg cop comedy a couple years ago.
Holy shit, this was goddamn hilarious.
"FUCK SCIENCE!"
Channing Tatum needs to do more comedy.
Decided. Channing Tatum for half way awards
Fucking HYSTERICAL.
I haven't laughed this hard in a theater in ages.
I KNOW ALL ABOUT DICK AND BALLS!
My face was hurting from laughing... it was funny, often crude... but not unintelligent.
Romney's less subtle campaign message: "Don't ask questions and just vote for me!!"
Yeah this was mostly hilarious. Tatum and Hill were absolutely terrific in their leadroles.
Blue Jasmine is coming for your wigs, gurls
Now, THAT is funny. The set-up, the jokes, the lead actors, the supporting cast, the one-liners, the visual gags. It does not flag, it starts funny, stays funny, ends funny. My only gripe is that a movie this full of comic invention should have loaded its closing credits with stuff to make me laugh. On par with NIGHT AT THE OPERA, BLAZING SADDLES, MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL, AIRPLANE!, THE NAKED GUN, THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY, TROPIC THUNDER, and THE HANGOVER in that list of movies that are purely designed to see how many times they can make you laugh incredibly hard in 90 minutes.
God this was hilarious. I enjoyed it immensely! I also thought it was funny recognizing all the locations since they filmed this in my neck of the woods (New Orleans area).
