RT on DVD: Giddy Up With Appaloosa, Forget My Best Friend's Girl

7. Balls Out: Gary The Tennis Coach




As we wind down this edition of RT on DVD, we make a brief stop in Direct-to-DVD Land, where we find poor former American Pie-er Seann William Scott wallowing in low budget "comedy" hijinks. Competing for Worst Release of the Week with the direct-to-DVD sequel Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling (which inexplicably stars Number 80 himself, Jerry Rice) is Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach. One might suppose director Danny Leiner nabbed poor Seann William Scott because of their prior relationship making the modern classic, Dude, Where's My Car? ("Where's your car, dude?") or even Leiner's major breakthrough feature, Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle. Is Direct-to-DVD Hell not far beneath the likes of Stifler? Oh, how we long for the days of watching Seann William Scott being peed on from on high. At least there was dignity in that.



Next: Humboldt County

I was under the impression that Vicky doesn't come out until next Tuesday.

Yah, on my list I got Tokyo Gore Police already out, and Vicky out 1/27/08

Otherwise, good list Jen. I'm watching Humboldt County and Appaloosa.

Thank God for "Vicky Christina Barcelona". Because every thing else looks uninteresting (like Tokyo Gore Police/Brideshead Revisted) or horrible (My Best Friends Girl/ Mirrors). I don't think "VCB" looks hilarious, but it does look sexy. And a little soft core porn never hurt. I'd see "Appalossa", but wasn't it just in theatres. A pretty weak week.

Tokyo Gore Police sounds fun. I prefer Woodys old silly stuff. I'll check it out to be fair anyway.

Ah, so it is. Sorry folks. Guess Tokyo Gore Police is the best title of the week. Apologies.
