Dodge, Duck out of, and Ditch “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story”

Yes, yes, yes. Been a while.

Anway, just saw last night’s matinee showing of the movie “Dodgeball”. The previews looked really funny and, yep, there were funny parts, but it went about two steps beyond the last Austin Powers movie in raunchy jokes and four leaps beyond in defrauding women.

I went with my step-dad and I was totally embarassed that I reccomended it, and even worse, he paid for us both. Another sad thing is that I told my students (I’m teaching summer school to freshman at Johnson) that they should miss this movie, but when I told them that it was raunchy and degrading to women it seemed to make them even more anxious to see it (they guys, at least).

The jokes hardly held anything but shock. I can’t see (or I don’t want to see) this one-up way of making movies going on much longer before it becomes porn. No wonder, NO WONDER males in this country can’t control themselves… but that’s old news. Isn’t it?

Anyway, this movie has gotten more than enuf attention from me.
