I just kept waiting for the transpobia joke in the trailer, but it never happened. Is that era post really about this movie? I'm confused.

Philly Burr be spinning in his grave seeing this shit. Dad jokes. Scooters. What is this? What is going on here? What is he doing? Recreating movies from the early 2000s? Is Jennifer Anniston in this? Lemme guess, at some point the angry old dickhead is going to learn a valuable life lesson, then deliver some heartfelt speech about children being the future. Fuckin lame. Nia has ruined him.

Yea, Burr is just some pc hollywood comic now. At one point he was probably one of the best around.

Holy Fuck at that massive number of bans that thread got at era.

Litterally "this looks dumb but I might still check it out"... BANNED!!!

Resetera Golden Rule: If someone mentions transphobia at any point in any thread the entire thread from then on has to only be about discussing the transphobia or else you will be banned.

I guess I missed Burr getting canceled for transphobia?
I think there was a big stink about his Paper Tiger, which was 4 years ago now. Like people calling to cancel Netflix subscriptions and more ridicilously people working on Netflix protesting against the special.

But he had another one, maybe two after that, and he's still doing excellent so clearly whatever was attempted largely failed.

I don't even remember his Paper Tiger, other than I laughed a lot. Did he say something that triggered the insane people? Probably. It's not hard.

Burr was already a huge-name though and those tend to survive unscathed except for the me-too cases.

This may have ruffled some feathers.
Im sure old dads will be a funny film. I just think I would have heard half of from F is for family and his stand up routines. Which both are funny as hell.

I wonder if it was ok to watch the eps of Mando that have Bill Burr? Or did you have to skip the entire show or else get banned?

Ha, I was pondering over this earlier today as well. It was quite a surprise to see Disney cast him in the show, and equally surprising that Bill accepted the offer! One would think Disney and Bill Burr are polar opposites, almost the antithesis of each other, given their distinctive styles and brand images.

I guess it was ok because he was a "bad guy". By the time they showed he was capable of redemption, everyone was too invested in watching the finale to cancel it!

This looks a bit hacky but I'll probably give it a shot. Just looked at the Era thread, and my fav part is that the OP got their thread making privileges pulled over it.

Surprised they don't understand comedy better when their entire community is a joke.

Christ those two folks are so fucking annoying. Go to hell with that.

Yeah, I don't know if it's rare to have a good host/guest chemistry when they pretty much agree on the ridiculness of the discussed issues and make fun of them, but this was not it.

Good for BIll and friends, but it just doesn't look particularly funny. Paper Tiger also wasn't particularly funny. I'm not overly sensitive to trans jokes, but man, why are they so rarely clever?

This shit is so on the nose. Fuck that lol.

I've no need for the dial to turn the other way and have movies infested with overt conservative/republican anti-woke shit. I just want to see good films. It's not that hard.

Crazy that I've listened and watched Burr for years and never heard of the Philly incident. Also I wouldn't discount the movie, F is For Family had a great run and it legit made an older guy I know cry from the memories of his Dad yelling at them from his PTSD associated with Korea so there's that.

EDIT: holy shit this is amazing
