Up Next On The EADJ Crappinema: "KAW!"

Sometimes life isn't fair. For every Tom Hanks, there's a Peter Scolari. For every Keanu Reeves, there's an Alex Winter. Same goes for the MacManus brothers from "The Boondock Saints." While Murphy MacManus (Norman Reedus) went on to a starring role in the smash hit AMC series "The Walking Dead," Connor MacManus (Sean Patrick Flanery) just ended up starring in "KAW!" -a shitty movie about killer crows- as some guy named Merkle. Merkle!

I realize I'm adding an exclamation to the title of this movie, but to hell with it. "KAW!"

"This time, the crows scare YOU." I made that up.

Merkle!

The EADJ Crappinema Presents Da Station

Remember that great show "WKRP?" And the urban comedy smash "Barbershop?" Well, the makers of Da Station saw them, too, and figured they could make something as good or better. Problem is nobody amongst them knew how to write dialogue. Or a plot. Or knew how to type it up on the computer. Or knew how to fix the printer once the "low ink" light came on. So the movie was pretty much a neato premise with an impressive cast that slowly falls apart due to no story. By the end, it's such a flaccid pigfuck that I'm surprised anyone showed up at the last day.



























And with all hip hoppers, it always ends in violence (did white guys write this?).

$5 to anyone who can decipher what these two guys are mumbling.









So by this point, the filmmakers were throwing pretty much everything against the wall to make the movie interesting. One of the things they threw was a Miss Big Booty '96 pageant full of more terrible stereotypes! Yay!

When you're writing a comedy ("urban" or not), I understand that you often have to create broad characters and situations to get the funny. But to have two types of characters: the jackass clown and the straight, boring one who isn't a jackass clown, you're just being lazy.
