Movie Review: Scary Movie 4

It was a Saturday night, I was with Ezequiel in a cowboy bar in Mentone while he's going thru his phone book, looking for someone to hang with.
I told him, "It's 8:30 on a Saturday night, everyone you know has plans already, except for us."
So he says, "Okay, do we drink or see a movie?"
EZ and I have radically different taste in films, so I wanted to drink. But I was driving. I ask him what movie. He says, "V for Vendetta."
I said, "Let's go drink."
So we leave the cowboys to do whatever the hell cowboys do when they're not beating up their girlfriends, and decide on a bar next to the movie theater so we can decide on what movie to watch over drinks. (The best of both worlds, as it were).
As it turns out, we didn't need the drinks because as we drove past the theater marquee, two words and a didgit pop out at us, and EZ and I say in harmony, "Scary Movie 4."
Let me say this, for the first 20 minutes of this film, I didn't stop laughing. And unlike most other slapstick comedies, the comedy remained fresh throughout.
Scary Movie 4 tears apart War of the Worlds (the shitty Speilberg version, not the good one), The Grudge, Brokeback Mountain, The Village, Saw (1 & 2), and takes especially mean (yet accurate) potshots at Tom Cruise and President Bush.
Ever since Zucker, Abrahams & Proft took over the Scary Movie franchise, their stamps elevated this dead celluloid to the levels of Police Squad and Airplane.
No offense to the Wayans brothers, but they still have a lot to learn about slapstick, although their newest project, Little Man, looks hilarious.
Oh yeah, and I can't wait for Clerks 2. Saw the preview last night and it looks just as good as the other films from the Jay & Silent Bob vein.
