"when life hands you a jeffrey, stroke a furry wall." - aldous snow


another DISAPPOINTING flick from the ppl who brought us 40 year old virgin and obviously forgetting sarah marshall. i LOVED forgetting sarah marshall... i just don't understand why they didn't bring back jason segel and mila kunis and paul rudd for this? :/

if you've seen sarah marshall, you know all about the british rock superstar/junkie/sex addict/crazy person ALDOUS SNOW. (russell brand) aldous snow's career tanks after releasing a hilarious yet controversial song called "african child", after music critics call it the worst thing that could happen to africa since apartheid. (LOL!) so, upon a 3 year hiatus and a separation from his hottie model/pop singer GF, jackie Q (played hilariously by rose byrne), aldous has been invited to play @ the greek theatre in los angeles. the only problem is getting him there... that's where record company intern aaron comes into play! (jonah hill) he's ordered by a HILARIOUS sean combs AKA diddy to accompany the crazy rockstar on his journey to NYC and los angeles...with a pit stop in vegas to visit dad! (of course!)

let's cut to the chase here...BEST scenes: the furry wall stroking/smokin' the jeffrey in aldous's LV suite; the anal heroin balloon scene @ JFK airport; the first night of partying w/ aldous in london- done true rockstar style; the african child music video; sarah marshall's cameo; and ALL of p. diddy's scenes! russell brand is really funny and fitting in the role of aldous for obvious reasons, and quite frankly, this movie should have just been about him... (cut out the fat kid, please) and secondly, why didn't jonah hill just reprise his role as matthew the eager waiter??? thus, movie spinoff FAIL... comeon, judd apatow! if it worked in sarah marshall, stick wit it, ya? :P
