somebody buy me a softbox
so I don't have to get day-drunk to do these videos anymore
Cheers and welcome to another drunk review
today I watched jingle all the way 2, starring Larry the Cable Guy
whose character name is Larry
are you even trying?
this movie exists
I saw it at Walmart in the $3.50 movie section
and my immediate thought was
this looks like absolute garbage, I need to watch it
and it did not disappoint
it was released in 2014. 2014.
it has literally nothing to do with the original jingle all the way
aside from the very clichéd message of
capitalism is all well and good but really family is what matters
it was also a classic [sarcastically] classic
tale of dad versus stepdad and stepdad is of course, rich
and uses his power and money to buy things
but that's okay because actual dad could give her experiences
I will also say the hot toy craze thing that they borrowed from the first movie
doesn't work as well if it's 2014
in the 90s, yes it was very hard to find the hot toy
because it sold out pretty quickly
but in 2014, not so much. not so much
they even brought up the Internet
like literally mentioned "why don't you try the Internet?"
"well yeah, the soonest I could get it is December 26"
but you'd still get it like
***!
sorry, it's Christmas, language
may also point out that this was released by WWE studios?
I'm not even kidding. I am not kidding.
why?
but why does wwe do anything?
so yeah, same stupid premise as the first one
but set in a time where it was much less realistic
you know I actually kind of liked it the first movie when I was younger
because, you know, it's a fun movie for kids
but this just...this is garbage
like the character of Larry is exactly who you think a character
played by Larry the Cable Guy would be
the stepdad is played by, I *** you not, Arwin
from The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. like...
Bryan Stepanek, I think his name is, yeah
why?
but I suppose if you come from doing children's shows
and I guess he is still doing children's shows
a movie with Larry the Cable Guy is kind of a step up
but it's still a movie with Larry the Cable Guy
also he doesn't play villainous very well
like he had a legitimate henchman do his bidding like...
that's just...that is Bond level nonsense
and it was definitely not believable at all coming from Bryan Stepanek
I mean...why?
also the daughters name is Noel. Noel
why do Christmas movies insist on having at least one character
with a christmas-related name?
it is just so overdone...why?
I mean I will end with this. I watched the majority of this movie at one-and-a-half speed
because it dragged
and it was dumb and it was lame
and I suppose if you like Larry the Cable Guy
a whole hell of a lot
then you might like this movie
but I'm gonna give it a hard no
Merry Christmas!
thanks for watching, don't forget to Like share and subscribe
and... Merry Christmas
I will see you next time
[finger snaps] bye
