We're the Millers
Just went and saw "We're the Millers" which is a new movie just out featuring a Class A motorhome. Actually quite a few motorhomes and RV parks make it into the movie. This was one of the funniest...

I doubt we'll see it. hollyweird hasn't made a funny movie (or TV show for that matter) in eons. true comedy doesn't require filthy language to be funny. the last comedy we actually paid to see was the robin Williams RV dud.
In most cases, yes, rough language is usually not necessary. But, the premise of this movie is dealing with drug dealers, etc. Now, I've never been involved with drugs but I would imagine that their language is different than how you and I would speak to each other. It fits the movie.

all true but we'll pass. sure, we see movies all the time that use rough language. and I've been known to use rough language myself on occasion so it's not the language per se that's the problem. it's the cheap laughs that are derived from the language and that's not quality writing. it's also not funny to us. tune in to nearly any of the so called comedy TV programs that hollywierd turns out these days. they're all sex and semi-disguised profanity and more sex. it's cheap, tawdry, inappropriate and not funny and until we as consumers demand better by not financially supporting this type of so-called entertainment this is what we'll continue to get. Frasier, Cheers, Seinfeld...all classic and very funny. Modern Family, 2 Broke Girls and others like it...cheap in every sense of the word and not funny.
Yep you should pass on the 'Millers'.
Two Broke Girls, Modern Family, Raising Hope and Judge Judy are a few of the regular shows I like. I am also stuck on 'Under the Dome' on Monday nights. It's just a summer movie and will end soon, but I'm glued to the TV when that comes on.
Safe travels.
