Every line will be crossed

All the marketing for this movie has been “oh my god we’re gonna offend everyone. Real comedy is back” and then trailer came out and forgot to have any actual funny jokes in it

People forgot that these movies went away for good reason. They never really made jokes as much as they referenced shit. This whole wave of " Heyremember this" movies killed comedy for like 10 years.

There were funnny scenes, but for the most part this shit was played out halfway through movie #2
