Granted, I haven’t been a Vince Vaughn fan in quite some time. Right around the time when he started gaining a lot of weight, losing his hair, and doing really stupid movies. But what the hell is Oscar-winning director Ron Howard thinking with this steaming pile of dung? Below is the trailer for the new “comedy” The Dilemma. These seems like a fake trailer that would be put in one of those spoof movies, like How To Lose The Break-Up Because He’s Just Not That Into You. The premise: does one dude tell his best bud that his wife is cheating on him. This could be a film about morality and ethics and it could have easily swung to drama. Instead, it looks like Ron Howard just took a really idiotic premise that wasn’t even enough for a 20 minute film, and filled it with poop jokes and gay jokes. WTF?

Why for the love of God would you start your trailer with one of the worst bits in the film (I’m assuming, but I guess the “Electric cars are gay” bit could be one of the highlights…)? And what the f-ck is Latifah doing in this junk? Over the weekend I just watched Latifah in a really underrated, sweet little rom-com called Just Wright. It was adorable! Latifah is so much better than playing second fiddle to Vince’s gut and whatever Kevin James is doing in this crapfest. But really, you could say that about all of the ladies – Jennifer Connelly? FOR REAL? And Winona Ryder?!? I mean, I kind of get the Winona thing, she’s at the point where she’s just taking what’s she’s being offered. But Connelly… did Ron Howard help her dispose of a hobo’s body or something?

And finally, a lament for Vince Vaughn. Who ever thought when they saw Swingers for the first time that Vince would end up a fat balding douche making an endless stream of mainstream comedies in which the real star is the endless supply of poop jokes? Vaughn was supposed to be the big breakout actor, remember? He was supposed to be, like, the next Tom Hanks or something. I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by poop jokes, bloated, dumb.
