"It's 'my foot' meets 'your ass'!"

Apparently, there's a giveaway for tickets to see the movie Fired Up. (Two things: a) It's not the underrated Sharon Lawrence/Leah Remini sitcom, which deserves a DVD release, so I'm a little miffed that this movie would use that title and b) I might catch it on cable - there's no way I'd pay to see this - if only for Eric Christian Olsen; if nothing else, he hardly ever plays the same character twice. The cocky blonde jock in Not Another Teen Movie. Ryan's friend in Cellular. Lloyd Christmas in Dumb and Dumberer. Yep, all him.)

The poster had the review 'It's Superbad meets Bring it On!' Does anyone else think there's something wrong with this?! This doesn't even sound like a review. It sounds more like a pitch meeting. It really burns me up that, with all the film reviewers and newspapers in this great nation of ours, this is, literally, the best they could come up with.

It reminds me of how infuriating the blurb on the School for Scoundrels remake was: 'It's Bad Santa meets Napoleon Dynamite!', courtesy of Some Jerkoff at the Reacharound Times.

It almost makes one long for the overblown superlatives of Earl Dittman. Almost.
