Isn't it an own-goal to make a fictional movie premised on how supposedly easy this would be to do when it hasn't ever happened? Many states that have banned trans athletes don't even have trans athletes to ban. So who are they supposed to be satirizing except themselves?
Oh Good Christ I just had to look and notice the credit for Doctor Mister Jordan Ballbag Pearson.
I don't know what role will be fulfilled by having someone that looks like a disappointed scrotum and sounds like a SNES era Muppets game, but like you, I can't wait to never find out
Never thought I'd be nostalgic for the days when conservatism was more than a circle jerk of guys high-fiving each other about how stuff we never see is really pissing us off.
I’m curious how this movie ends - certainly our plucky heroes not only win the prize money but actual Trans people realize the error of their ways or some horseshit
Oh god, this brought mind Soul Man, a 1986 C. Thomas Howell movie about a white kid who put on blackface to get a minority scholarship to a prestigious university. Even more offensive than Gung Ho.
One character they omitted: the Media Circus, aka the Daily Wire. Do they satirize themselves? We shall see. By "we", i mean "whomever watches this trash."
Nothing screams comedy like stunt casting sitting US Senator Ted "Mr. Jokes" Cruz. I hope Mike Huckabee shows up too so they can have every conservative comedian in one place.
I wonder what percent of the tiny number of people who buy this end up thinking of themselves as trans in ten years. Such an obviously unanswerable question doesn’t need to confine itself to how many actually come out, of course
It's so good that they all just put themselves in this shit. "Theater kids who went fash because they were told they couldn't hack it" being such a strong part of that movement is maybe not surprising, but I guess I applaud these rancid men for continuing to chase their stupid dreams.
Simply heartbreaking that I clicked on this to make fun of this shitty thing and “Senator Ted Cruz & Dr. Jordan Peterson” in the credits but instead added, “David Cone jerking Mets bullpen” to my search history’s permanent record. Thanks a lot Andy! Fuck off Lady Ballers!
Did David Cone once got caught jacking off in the bullpen? I was going to google this instead of asking, but I’m not entirely sure what search terms to enter.
I don't know any of the topline actors and the 2nd line of actors doesn't have any professional actors in it. This is like one of those conservative kids books where the animals spend the whole time mocking environmentalists for stopping the greatest gift of nature: capitalism
I think that’s exactly what happened. I read the credits and turns out I knew one of the actors in it like ten years ago. He was a standup, and seemed like a nice guy, but a few years ago he just started posting these hack right-wing jokes nonstop. I unfollowed and lost track of him. And now, well…
I want to say it was Patton Oswalt who pointed it out first, but the failed-comic-to-reactionary-weirdo pipeline is definitely a thing. You'd think that at some point leveraging your embitterment would start to feel bad/sour, but maybe these guys just have more of it than the average.
Dennis Miller walked so etc etc. but that doesn’t totally explain Dennis since he was exceptional early in his career. Maybe he was just run of the mill “old guy online brain rot”
I know a few guys who went this way who were just regular nondescript sort of whatever white guys before, and I'm forced to conclude that for those with no soul, personality, emotional intelligence, consideration for others, or creative talent, it's a lot of fun to be like this. And so, fuck 'em.
I feel like a good percentage of comedians in general use humor as an unhealthy coping strategy to deal with unresolved stuff and it often ends up curdling into extremely toxic behavior.
Not me. I am perfectly fine but other people in comedy.
An incredibly bleak and cursed movi to exist. But it’s funny to think about a Daily Wire production having to pay union scale for SAG-AFTRA extras and IATSE crew.
Starring, co-written, and directed by a guy named Boreing. Co-starring Ted Cruz. In case the whole thing didn’t seem pathetic and ridiculous enough already.
I just made a corny zombie movie with some pals and we still got our IMDB pages, I guess reactionary grifting bankrolled by a publication that had to remove a Columbus Day cartoon for being even too racist for Ben Shapiro is a way to do that too.
Critics are raving! "I give it this, it's definitely lives up to the Boreing name" and "Wait, they released Juwanna Mann like 20 years ago and that sucked, why do we need a white version of that written by angry little people?"
i meant more that the futurama episode has a shitty character cheating with the rest of the characters largely scolding him. its from a place of seeming ignorance rather than the outright hate from the daily wire
In a couple of years, every family will have that one uncle that shows up to family vacations with a limited edition, director’s cut DVD of this movie, and insist everyone watch it.
FFS, Warner Bros. puts Batgirl on the shelf for a tax write-off, but Ben Shapiro just needed to set $3,500 on fire to share his creative vision with the world.
Are we sure The Daily Wire can credibly preach fiscal responsibility anymore?
Given what we know about the true cost of streaming original content & the shitty pay of these platforms, we know this cannot last and there is a mother of a deficit going on there.
“Um, okay, my pitch is we make fun of trans girls. They’re a marginalized and threatened community—literally being murdered for existing. So already that’s funny. Then…and this is the bonus punchline…we yell ‘TRIGGERED!’ if anyone complains.”
“I feel like my great ideas aren’t being validated in woke lamestream media, so I’m going to create a parallel entertainment universe, appealing to bigots and morons, and sit on a pile of money that sits on a pile of bodies. I WIN, LIBS.”
I know we’re talking Juwanna Mann, but have you seen Vivica A Fox’s latest turn as extended auto warranties spokesperson? Every time she says “darlings,” my skin crawls
"The most triggering comedy of the year." That's when you know something's really funny, when you're making yourself laugh because you think someone who isn't watching it would be offended if they were watching it.
Did they put a magazine montage of Joe Biden sniffing someone’s hair in there to trigger the libs? This feels like if Michael Moore made a comedy where there’s a whole gag about how Bush can’t spell “nuclear”
The great thing about this is that its audience is composed entirely of people who'd never watch women's sports under any conditions other than those of the movie.
It's all been downhill since Michael Richards' nightclub act, conservative comedians have been trying ever since, the landscape is strewn with the corpses of their careers.
Most of the background actors actually didn't know they were in a daily wire movie, so they had to actively lie yo people just to bring them on board :^)
I look forward to this somehow make $80 million opening weekend, yet somehow the theaters will be empty. Just like that one about the groomer who “hunted” child traffickers.
Their films dont hit theaters. Some of them have shown up on YouTube but all of them go on their own streaming platforms and soon their kids' streaming platform.
Will Riley Gaines overcome adversity and finish fifth in a race all by herself now that she no longer has to compete against transgender athletes? Watch and find out!
These guys are 20 years late. We already have the movie Juwanna Mann. And though I've never seen it I can tell you it was
1. Awful
2. So much better than this could ever hope to be.

It’s also an actual movie unlike Pillow Hitler. He’s scum but that was stupid to give something not technically a “movie” worst picture.
Same with Diana.
(I know I shouldn't be surprised, but holy shit. Imagine the incandescent rage on Fox if a member of the Squad was in some lefty propaganda flick)
(Sorry, I only have the Ojeda one joke, but I think that makes sense)
I imagine her schedule is wide open.

Admittedly, most of those places are landfills, but still.

Especially the ending!
It's a Dodgeball/That Championship Season ripoff that mocks transgender people.
I don't want to exist anymore
So I'ma laugh -- at, not with them -- and they'll be too up their own asses to realize it, lol.
There is not enough eyebleach.
Was he castrated at a young age?

Li’l Beardo there was just about to sign a three-year contract with the Spurs!
I hate these morons so much. Any legitimate actors in this should be blacklisted for life. So embarrassing.
