Are people still fans of The Wedding Crashers? Like, are they popping it into their DVD players and watching it regularly and quoting it and stuff like that? Because that film feels like the last time I could stomach a Vince Vaughn vehicle, and it’s been a long time since I even gave it a second thought. And before The Wedding Crashers… man, I guess I just don’t really like Vince Vaughn movies all that much.
I also don’t like Ron Howard movies all that much these days, so the idea of them teaming up for a comedy really doesn’t fill me with much excitement. Or hope. Or faith in the future of humanity.
But it gets better! The film is the brainchild of spiky-haired dynamo Brian Grazer. We know that he’s a comedy monolith, so thank God he’s giving out intriguing movie premises like ‘an exploration of the fallout surrounding infidelity between lovers and friends.’ I hope this means Vaughn and Jon Favreau wrestle again, like in Four Christmases.
Stop making me sad, Hollywood.

They're so funny that they should turn their talents to writing snarky downer blurbs on the internet, which is where all the talented people work.
Agreed about Vince Vaughn; he hasn't really been a favorite of mine, and while I was "in love" with him for a time, I can't say I genuinly like him one bit.
Ron Howard on the other hand…. Just kidding. He's a little blase, but I like him more as a person than a director. What he does for a living is a by product.
vince "box office poison" vaughn's gonna kick your ass fatty.
Vince should follow his good buddie Owen Wilsons lead and slit his own wrists. One slight suggestion: Don't call the ambulance.
Man, Devin
Sometimes it's like we share the same brain (and there's those other times when you say totally dumb shit). Here's hoping that the double negative of the Howard-Vaughn pairing will produce a gem.
C'mon! "Dodgeball"!? Who didn't like "Dodgeball"? And it only gets funnier and funnier on repeat viewings. Yeah, but other than that I couldn't care less about Vince Vaughn or his movies.
I like how Devon's articles have generated a seemingly worldwide industry of jerks who have to jump on absolutely everything he says (and usually rip him apart for his body shape as well). Why do you even come to this site if you hate him so much? Aintitcool is always right around the corner for those of us who need orgasmic reviews 90 percent of the time (which I'm not saying is intrinsically bad, it's just for a different mood/audience). Grow up guys.
So what about The Adventures of HP Lovecraft? Where'd that disappear to?
Let's hope HPL is gone and forgotten. My friend always points out that Ron Howard is "nobody's favorite filmmaker" ie: people like or dislike his movies, but nobody ever claims Ron Howard to be their favorite filmmaker.
Hopefully they throw us a curveball and this ends up being Grizzly Park 2. Nunziata gotta eat!
Vince Vaughn. Will Ferrell. Ben Stiller. Jamie Farr.
Cannonball Run 4 the Money!
#7 aka Dan… I'll tell you why. Reason 1: This isn't "Devon"'s site. (At least spell his name right) It's Nick's site. And every post Nick makes, makes up for 10 of "Devon"'s. In addition. "Devon" gets off on stirring shit. He loves the attention and purposely tries to raise people's hackles. He's even worse on the MB, trust me.
I like Vince Vaughn, but I don't think he's utilising his personality as well as he could in the movies he is in. He's a sort of modern-day wise-ass Bill Murray type but the majority of his movies just sail ocean mediocre. A shame. But yeah, Swingers was enjoyable, Dodgeball is funny and Weddings Crashers was an okay watch-once movie.
Dodgeball is the only Vince Vaughn movie that I've liked. Swingers is highly overrated, and Wedding Crashers sucked. I like him much more as a minor character in someone else's starring vehicle. The Lost World: Jurassic Park & Mr & Mrs Smith were good Vince Vaughn movies.
Swingers is not overrated. Now continue your argument.
Devin, stop adding "the" to everything.
"The" Family Guy
"The" Wedding Crashers
It makes you look like The Sloppy Idiot.
Vince is a great on screen presence. He does the same shtick in most movies but he does that one thing extremely well. He is an entertainer.
