I'd sooner just forget that last scene after the credits. *shudder*

Saw it yesterday. It had me busting a gutt almost from start to finish.
I thought dodgeball was a funny movie, nothing more to it then that. I went with 2 friends and one of them thought it was terrible , basically rolled his eyes evertime the move tried to make a funny. The other one thought it was ho hum but she was laughing quite a bit at some parts.
I'd rank it as- cheap theatre delight/ rent it on dvd. I can't say its good enough to warrent a full priced theatre ticket. Vince Vaughn just can't carry a movie very well on his own.
Trivia for some of you- the guy that played the crazy dude with the mail order bride- is he the voice of that character in king of the hill whose name suddenly excapes me.. the one that isnt' hank , dale or boomhower.

Thats not a very good piece of trivia seeing as he was also on News Radio and Milton in Office Space.

Dodgeball wins the weekend with (estimated) 30 million, beating out the new Tom Hanks movie. Dodgeball was only supposed to make about 22 million by analysts' reports.
Saw this on Saturday night. Went in with low expectations even after reading the glowing reviews on the board, but man it was funny. The scene with the pizza and the midget humping a doorknob line was just great.
What was the scene after the credits? I was with a bunch of friends and we had to get to a party so we left right after it finished so I missed it.

Great crazy little movie. I liked Zoolander better, though.
I almost ripped my gut laughing when Patches had his speach about
and when Stiller said what I expect to become a next catchphrase on the level of 'Damn the Patriots'

Finally saw the movie last night. LOVED IT.
Jason Bateman as Pepper Brooks had me in stitches (along with Gary Cole's Cotton McKnight) as the game announcer.
Also, for those who haven't seen it yet, STAY PAST THE CREDITS! Everyone but 2 other people in my theater left, and they missed on of the funniest things:
I was dying laughing when White Goodman tried to seduce Kate at her house, and then hopped on the back of the moped and rode away flipping them off. Classic

Fat White Goodman saying to the audience "Oh, you want a little funny for your ride home?! FINE!", and proceeds to grab his man-boobs as he sings the "Milkshake" song.
Milton will live on. Oh yeah.... Dont get this sad sap down... He's coming for ya.
Great movie. I heard that they toned it down a lot and cut full segments of the stoory out to get the rating that the studio wanted. But none the less it was freaking funny as hell. Cant wait to see the dvd.
I'll go see the rest of the movie some other time.

Just caught Dodgeball last night, at a suprisingly crowded Wednesday night showing. Dodgeball is exactly the goofy fun it's advertised as being. Alas, for whatever reason, Ben Stiller did absolutely nothing for me in this flick; I thought almost all of his lines fell completely flat. But, between the training film, ESPN8, and the tournament itself, the rest of the flick more than made up for it. Fact: seeing someone get hit in the face with a dodgeball is inherently amusing.
The highlight gag for my group, involving halloween costumes gone horribly wrong and a long running in-joke, was defintely
. I damn near wept tears of joy. And, yes, the post-credits bit is worth sticking around for, in a mind-scarring sort of way.
Finally, allow me to point out the obvious. First, Christine Taylor is devestatingly cute in braids. Second, Alan Tudyk rules

Saw Dodgeball last night. Hot damn this movie was funny. This is exactly the kind of comedy I love; it's not side-splitting hilarious the entire time, but it's consistently funny and there are lots of clever little jokes to pick up on. Definitely want to see it again.
BTW, I IMDB'd writer/director Rawson Marshall Thurber, and it turns out he also wrote and directed that Terry Tate, Office Linebacker commercial a couple years ago. Crazy.
