Anyways... as always, when I watch a movie, I study/dissect it as a screenwriter. Except recently when I watched "Wanderlust" written by Ken Marino (Wet Hot American Summer). I guess since I didn't expect much out of it, I decided to study it as a sketch writer/improv student just to see what I could come up with.
I was impressed. Every. Scene. Was. A sketch. And all the sketches (or plots - A plot, B plot, C plot) came together and intertwined like a Harold. Wow. Mind blown. And I actually enjoyed this sleeper comedy.
If you're familiar with improv and the Harold as popularized by Del Close, you get what I'm saying. They even had somewhat of a group game. See video...
Even if you have no idea what I'm talking about but like comedies. Check it out. It's no Anchorman or Old School. But I do think you'll be pleasantly surprised and entertained. And one more video of my favorite scene to entice you...
