The Family Guy - Volume 2(2002)
Synopsis:
The Griffin household of Quohog, Rhode Island includes two teenagers,
a cynical dog who is smarter than everyone else, and a mutant baby who makes numerous attempts to eradicate his parents and
siblings. Heading up this eclectic household is Peter Griffin. Peter does his best to do what's right for the family, but
along the way, he makes mistakes that are the stuff of legends.
Nick's Thoughts:
Whats to say about Family Guy? Possibly the funniest cartoon
ever, it rivals the Simpsons and SOuth Park. This show is also highley quotable, and is found second most popular in away
messages next to the afforementioned Super Troopers. The Griffin's legend now lives on DVD for all to see, and whit its growing
popularity may be back on the air soon. We can only hope, Giggidy Giggidy Oh Right!

SUPER TROOPERS (2002)
Synopsis:
Thorny, Mac, Rabbit, Foster and Farva are Vermont state troopers out
to have a good time. Stationed in a remote area near the Canadian border, the troopers, avid pranksters with an affinity for
syrup, have a knack for screwing up on the job. But when budget cuts in the town of Spurbury threaten their livelihood and
pit them against arch-rival Spurbury P.D., the five friends try to straighten up and fly right. That is, until a dead body
is discovered and a possible drug ring is unearthed. The super troopers spring into action attempting to solve the crime,
save their jobs, and outdo the local police department.
Nick's Thoughts:
Celebrating its 1 year anniversary of being released on DVD,
I figured Id pop in this classic comedy. Perhaps the funniest movie of the 2000's. It never gets old, and you laugh even harder
every time. Stick it in, press play, and quote the damn thing word for word for the next month. Meow after youre done watching
it you can get back to your shennagans. Ohhh!
Old School (2003)
Synopsis:
Mitch, Frank and Beanie are disillusioned with their personal
lives begining when Mitch's nymphomanic girlfriend, Heidi, cheats on him, then former party animal Frank gets married, but
unwilling to get go of his wild life, and Beanie is a family man seeking to reclaim his wild and crazy youth. Beanie suggests
that they form their own fraternity in Mitch's new house on a college campus to re-live their glory days by bringing together
a variety of misfit college students, losers, middle-aged and elderly retirees as their new friends and later try to avoid
being evicted by the new Dean of Students, Pritchard, whom still holds a personal grudge against all three of them.
Nick's Thoughts
Funny as hell. Will Ferrell, genius. Vince Vaughn,
classic. And I could actually stand whiny Luke Wilson for a change. The DVD has some cool features on it like the trailers
and deleated scenes. The reason it's in the player right now is because it's one of those movies you can keep watching and
still laugh.
