the 1st half was oscar worth acting by mcfarlane

I was sitting next to a mother who brought her 8 year old son to this movie (probably thinking it would be a cute Teddy bear story). The horror on her face throughout the movie really made it worthwhile for me.

yes there was a 10 yearoldish boy with his dad in front of me and when Ted was doing the whole all i heard was the kid say "what is that dad??" and i was cracking up

I thought this movie was utterly hilarious, and I stopped watching Family Guy a while ago.

The one joke that killed me:

went in w low expectations but actually found it funny

splooge + ****** scenes were hilarious. agree with the pedo father/son kidnapping angle being lame. Rest was pretty funny.

THIS

Family Guy was outstanding in seasons 1-3. Now it is the worst of the worst for humor.

Appeals to people that aren't very nimble imo.

Saw it, enjoyed it quite a bit. Nothing will get me like seeing Borat in the theater though. If you like comedy it's definitely worth the admission. And MacFarlane was able to steer clear of too many family guy allusions, which was nice. This movie felt like its own thing, not another watered down Family Guy spinoff.



Oh I forgot to add, the theater was packed and we got there late so not much choice. There were 4 of us and 4 empty seats on the end near the very front. I went ahead and sat by the guy in the 5th seat so my wife, brother, and sister-in-law didn't have to sit next to some strange dude the whole time. Anyway he was hispanic and I'm pretty sure gay, too. There were a LOT of gay and hispanic jokes in the movie. Was kind of awkward at first but then I just laughed as if he wasn't there.

I loved the obscure references in this film. The dance scene from "Airplane!" was one of my favorites.

A bunch of other small references too were priceless, and I could tell I got a decent amount of them while the 17-18 year olds sitting by me didn't catch them.

Yeah, got the feeling half the theater missed several funny 80's references

What % of the theater has seen Flash Gordon? I'm 33 and I didn't even watch/remember that show. That stuff was all new for me, but it was still funny.

Airplane is just as old but it has stood the test of time as one of the GOAT comedies. I loved that scene and Mila looked way hotter than that sticky horseface from Airplane.

I guess if you hadn't seen Airplane that scene would still be funny anyway as it just looks silly.

I enjoyed this review so much I don't even want to see the movie.
NYT review of Ted

Well that makes sense.

loved Ted! saw it while on a 2nd date. i enjoy family guy and that type of humor. my date, not so much. While shes making faces after every dirty joke or line, im sitting there laughing hysterically. Seriously, who doesnt enjoy a stuffed bear banging a hot, slutty chick?

Her I guess, when she thought about having sex with you while you wore a bear costume.

she made me return the bear costume, but dont even get me started on that its a sore subject

What a huge mope that clown is. Anyone who comes away from this movie with that impression is trying way too hard to dislike it.

Saw it last night. May not win any awards but it was fun.

As a movie Ted was ok.
I would have preferred it as a series maybe on HBO or Showtime.

yup. Just lots of laughs and the usual mcfarlane references were pretty funny. Definitely worth seeing as most comedys are terrible nowadays. One of the funnier movies ive seen in the last few years. But i like the really crude raunchy ****.

oh ya, the warburton **** at the beginning with the punch me in the face texting had me laughing right off the bat, as he executed it perfectly.

I'm very picky when it comes to comedy movies, and I thought it was hilarious

Yeah David Puddy always crushes. He plays the aloof but lovable meathead so well.

This. I was laughing my ass off, although it would be a lot funnier while high.

First half was really really good -- a lot of jokes stacked on each other which made it much funnier than most comedies. Second half you kind of knew what was gonna happen and I was kinda bored waiting for the cheesy endings to wrap up.
